Im start am with one question wey dey ginger brain: “Does Jesus still belong on the cross?”. E quickly clear say, ‘Abeg, no go crucify me o! Na Christian I be, and Christ don die for me finish.’ E no wan make anybody think otherwise.
Korede talk say Jesus don rise up, e no dey on top cross again. The cross no be destination, but na doorway. E even carry Bible matter come for gist, dey talk about how Jesus tell the thief, ‘Today you go join me for paradise.’ So, na to remind us say Jesus dey sit down for heaven dey chill with God the Father.
