Reacting in a sermon on Friday night, Adeboye warned pastors against hiding beneath the grace to sin.
He was quoted as saying, “I feel compelled to say some things to those that are young and up and coming ministers.
“What I want to say is from the Bible: There is nothing hid that shall not come to the open or made manifest. Mark 4:22
“2. Sooner or later, your sins will find you out if you continue in sin under the guise of grace. Numbers 32:23

“3. Abstain from every appearance of evil. 1 Thessalonians 5:22.
“2 Timothy 2:22. When you find yourself facing youthful lust,flee; don’t say you’re highly anointed or something, ask Samson.You may say I’m old fashioned, I agree.I’ll never have a private secretary who’s a woman. When a woman accuses you of something, nobody will listen to you whether you’re right or wrong; be wise!
Adeboye’s statement has since stirred reactions from a cross section of Nigerians on social media.
