What fans said about Johnson's reaction

Legit.ng compiled the reactions of fans to what Apostle Johnson said. Here are some of the comments below:

@olad:

"Forgiving an atrocity doesn’t mean forgetting it. However, maintaining the "status quo" suggests room for vengeance, which contradicts biblical teachings to let go of anger (Ephesians 4:31-32), avoid holding grudges (1 Corinthians 13:5), and release the desire for revenge (Romans 12:19)Though his approach is unchristian for a pastor, I support him because I believe evil thrives without consequences."
