He said the newspaper ought to have called or clarified before putting up the publication.
He urged his congregation to go on the link of Punch and let them know they had lied.
I never said anybody who doesn’t believe in Jesus anywhere they are will go to heaven. I never said that. What I said is that God is not a Christian.
