Please somebody should tell Olukoya that this is what the bible says in Colossians 2: 16 – ”Therefore, let no one judge you because of what you eat or drink or about the observance of annual holy days, New Moon Festivals, or weekly worship days.”

Is dollars in the Bible? Was Jesus born at all? Is MFM in the Bible?
