Was even more interested in video when the person made mention of the fact that ‘ we shouldn’t associate ourselves with poor men of God!’

Well… initially what made him took interest in the video at first was the person’s physical appearance. Ranging from the outfit to the hair styles…Jesse was like ‘ wow I really need to watch this to the very end. Isn’t this the same hair styles my pastor asked me to scrape off?😧’.

Mind you, the 32 unread messages were from Jesse’s pastor.He keep on reminding Jesse to scrape off the air saying it’s ungodly and devilish… backing every of his points with a bible verse.

So back to our discussion….Jesse glued more to the video when the person made mention of the fact that ‘ salvation is personal i.e it is in our hearts and that physical appearance or whatever way we dress,our hair styles, make ups are irrelevant in the presence on God and that those things won’t stop us from inheriting God’s kingdom ‘. This was the particular part was what interested Jesse the most… Another thing the person mentioned was the fact that looking good and wearing the latest designs of clothes is an evidence that we are truly serving God. He made emphasis on this with a point that even as at the time of Jesus, He also do the latest i.e he wore latest designers and that it can be deducted from the fact that the Pharisees were fighting on who would take Jesus underwear!

Why?
That is because they were nice and latest!

so Jesse followed this particular man on all his social media handles and ever since then, he stopped attending his former church and started attending online services
