The senior pastor of the Household of God Church International Ministries, Chris Okotie, has revealed that God called him to be celibate like Apostle Paul in the Bible, which is why he will not remarry.
According to Okotie, he had this call in his university days but declined it and went into two different marriages which eventually failed.
Okotie’s first wife was Tina but they separated in 2001.

Another was, Stephanie Henshaw in 2008 but the union ended in 2012.
“I’m not getting married again because Jesus has already told me that one has ended. When I was saved, when I became born again, I was in university at the time. I did not understand the will of God for my life.
I called you like Paul. I tried to stop you at that time, but you didn’t listen. I want you to live a life of dedication to me and the work I called you for. So marriage is not on the menu again, never.” he said.
The 64-year-old cleric stated this during an interview with BBC Pidgin.
