Daddy Freeze has reacted to a video by actor Williams Uchemba who criticized those who attacked Pastor Adeboye over his prayer against coronavirus.
Williams Uchemba shared the video with the below captioned:
“1 Timothy 5:1-3, Hebrews 13:17, Ephesians 6:1
And many more scriptures that talks about how we should treat our elders, our parents and also spiritual leaders , and the consequences that comes with disobeying this instructions yet the youth of this generation shock me everyday by the way they talk and treat this people. I’m scared for this generation, YOU DONT KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING TO YOURSELF UNTIL LATER. BE DIGGING YOUR OWN GRAVE WITH YOUR HANDS. I WEEP FOR MY YOUTH GENERATION”.
Daddy Freeze who reacted to the actor’s post stated that there is nothing wrong in rebuking an elder when he is wrong.
He wrote: “@williamsuchemba Good morning bro.
Although I agree that it’s wrong as Nigerians to insult our elders, the scriptures are clear on addressing Elders in the church and in the faith as a whole, when they are wrong, make mistakes or are sinning. Furthermore, there is nothing wrong with rebuking elders publicly as long as it’s done politely. Paul rebuked Peter publicly in Gal2:11-17 In Matthew 23, Christ was less than 33 years of age when he could clearly be seen addressing teachers of false religion with insults, calling them blind fools and sons of vipers. These people he insulted were in their 70s, 80s and 90s. If as Christians we are supposed to be Christlike, why are we afraid to emulate Christ in this regard?

When I saw that they were not following the truth of the gospel message, I said to Peter in front of all the others, “Since you, a Jew by birth, have discarded the Jewish laws and are living like a Gentile, why are you now trying to make these Gentiles follow the Jewish traditions?
