Denning Edem Hotor, known in showbiz as Edem, has suggested that it is time to renew the old ways of worshipping God to make it attractive.
Edem explained that Christianity has not been practiced the way it should, because it gives freedom to explore and do what one wants to do after understanding and believing in God, unlike religion which has limits.
“I think we need to move from the orthodox mode of worship to make Christianity and God look cool”, he stated.
Speaking on Prime Morning on Monday, May 9, the famous Ewe rapper revealed that he knows a lot about Christianity and religion because he is very spiritual and insisted he has the capabilities of becoming a pastor.
To him, the practice of religion has been problematic all this while, because men have created borders that limit people's freedom, unlike Christianity, which is easy when you believe in God.
“I think Christianity is ok, it gives freedom to do what you want, but religion is the problem. It has borders that limit people.
"For example, religion would tell you they are uncomfortable with a girl who wears skinny shorts, who adorns herself with so much jewellery, coming to church but then Christ will accept the person and accept the person wholeheartedly, because we are all equal in his eyes,” he added.
Sharing insight into his career and music, the ‘Koene’ hitmaker also hinted that he has been preaching the gospel on the low because his song ‘Power’ is a gospel song.
In addition, the ‘Jesus Gang’ concert he did last year, was probably to shed more light on the need to revert the old ways of worship to a modern way.
“Christianity needs to be relevant with time, believers should aspire to have a modern life, because the donkey Jesus used back then can be compared to a Bentley in today’s era”, Edem reiterated.
