Don't wear innerwear, let Christ enter fully: Kenyan pastor tells women

Nairobi, Mar 4: Bras and panties are ungodly and prevent Christ from entering the lives of women.

Believe it or not, but this is what a pastor in a Nigerian church told his congregation. Rev Njohi of Lord's Propeller Redemption Church in Nairobi, Kenya, has advised female worshippers to come to the church 'free' - that is, without wearing any undergarments - and to let Christ enter their lives fully.

Njohi claims that when going to church, people need to be free in 'body and spirit' to receive Christ and that undergarments hindered that.

He also warned members that there would be dire consequences if they secretly put on their inner wear and came to church. Surprisingly enough, at last Sunday's service, most of the women turned up without their bras or panties - just as the pastor had ordered.

Rev Njohi has also asked mothers to do the same and to check their daughters when coming to church so as to receive Christ.

Ironically, he said nothing about men wearing underwear to church.
