Catholic priest says using “Holy Ghost fire” to destroy enemies is against the Bible, explains why

According to him, there was never a time ‘holy ghost fire’ was used for deliverance, noting that what is used for deliverance is ‘in the name of Jesus Christ’.

He added:

“Those who are anointed get transformed. And what matters under your anointing is the Spirit of God that possesses you.

“People don’t like this message. “Holy Ghost fire” prayers against your enemies, whether they are in the village or they are in town, whether they are your uncles – your uncle that denied you something, or that stole your mother’s land or whatever – if you are among those who invoke holy ghost fire to destroy your enemies. You don’t have the spirit of Christ. What you have is an antichrist spirit. Many Christians are antichrists and they don’t know.”

Speaking further, Oluoma said during deliverance, it is in the name of Jesus Christ that evil spirits are cast out.
