Reality tv star and actor, Pere Egbi, has opened up about his ministerial calling. The reality tv star stated that he has had the calling to be a minister of God, since he was in secondary school.
Pere revealed this while speaking with Saturday Beats. He stated that the weight of his calling is becoming heavier daily.
Speaking further he stated that he hasn’t been called to be a pastor. This is because there are five ministerial offices other than pastoring in the bible.
His words,
“First of all, I have not been called to be a pastor. There are five other ministerial offices according to Ephesians 4:11. The pastoral office is one of them. So, it’s more of a desire to serve God. I was raised in a solid Christian home by my mother who means so much to me.
Opening up about his background he revealed that he was raised in a solid Christian home by his mother. He noted that his calling is more of a desire to serve God.
He said,
“This is a call I have had from my younger days while in secondary school at Command Day Ikeja, Lagos. God calls and we are required to answer, but I’ve been running. The burden and the weight to answer is becoming heavier as the years go by and I have to answer. Hence, I know for a fact that it’s the last thing I’d be doing on earth before I leave.”
He spoke about being a Christian devotee and holding prominent position in church, as the choir leader before he got caught up in entertainment.
He said;
“Christ Embassy is my church and I have been a member from my late teens. I believe I was 19 when I started attending services at the Oregun branch of the church in Lagos. Pastor Chris Oyakhilome inspired me and still does. I functioned in the choir as a worship leader before I got caught up deep in entertainment. Values like faith, perseverance, persistence and hope guide me in life. I have always loved acting and I still do. I don’t think I would leave acting alone. I have always been an actor way before BBN.
While speaking on his beef with his colleague and winner of the Big Brother Naija season 6, show, Whitemoney, he stated that he never bullied anyone.
His words,
“I never bullied anyone. I just have a very assertive personality that comes off very strong. I love Whitemoney. We have since done stuff together and will continue to. Humility doesn’t mean what most people think it is. A humble man isn’t a man who lets others stomp on him; that’s not humility. That’s the way some people view it but no. I am a humble guy. I take pride in my accomplishments but humble enough to know I didn’t get there by my strength.”
This is coming few days after Pere took to Twitter and stated that he would someday stand on the pulpit to preach the gospel.
His words,
“Forget this celebrity BS, I’m gonna stand on the pulpit someday and I’d preach the gospel to tens of millions. It’s my dream. The one last thing I have to do before leaving earth”.
