No pastor in earrings will see this pulpit — Adefarasin

Paul Adefarasin says pastors and ministers who wear earrings will not be allowed on his pulpit or at The Experience.

Senior Pastor of House on the Rock, Paul Adefarasin, has declared that ministers who wear earrings will not be allowed to preach from his church’s pulpit or minister at the annual Christian music concert, The Experience.

According to P.M. News, the cleric made the remarks while questioning the practice of male ministers wearing earrings, insisting it would not be accepted in his church’s ministry.

“Why will a man be wearing earrings?” he asked, as reported by Church Gist, a Facebook platform.

“Any pastor wearing earrings can’t see this pulpit. Any minister wearing earrings will not minister at The Experience,” Adefarasin declared.

The Experience, which he convenes, is an annual gospel music concert in Lagos that attracts renowned Nigerian and international gospel artistes and thousands of worshippers.

With that stance, ministers hoping to grace one of Nigeria’s biggest gospel stages will have to leave their earrings at home.
