Vicar, St Paul's Catholic Church Akpo, Rev Fr George Arugbue has called on men of God to eschew heresies, present Jesus Christ as king of universe.

He said this in a homily during Mass at the Church, in Aguata LGA, to commemorate 2024 Corpus Christi celebration.


The cleric identified heresies as over emphasizing one truth at the expense of the other especially with view of self aggrandizement.


He highlighted the importance of seeking first the kingdom of God and his righteousness and urged Christians to accept Jesus as their Lord and King 


Fr Arugbue enjoined young people not to fall prey to fraudsters who claim to have what it takes to making people rich, advising them to work hard to become solution provider instead of being part of it.
