A preacher has claimed that sin can never take a man to hell, igniting a massive stir on social media.
During a service in a church, the man of God averred that Jesus Christ died to pay for the sins of men, thus sin cannot claim men.
In a video sighted on social media, the man of God said: ''Sin can never take a man to hell, never,'' he said, asking ''How can Jesus who is God die to pay sin and then sin now stands up to claim men.''

The preacher reiterated that Jesus did not collapse or die due to an accident, but died intentionally to deal with sin, hence, the sins of believers have been paid for.
''Did Jesus die or he fainted? Did he die or he collapsed? Was it a mistaken death or intentional? And why did he die intentionally?'' he posed a rhetorical question to the church folks.
He answered, saying: ''For our sins has been paid,'' adding that ''faith in Christ is freedom from sin.''

It is not the first time a pastor sparked controversy with his remarks. Briefly News previously reported American Pastor Stewart-Allen Clark has been suspended for his sermon in which he told women that they need to be thin and pretty so their husbands don't cheat on them.
He berated women for letting themselves "go" after getting married and urged them to use, who he thought was the pinnacle of female beauty, Melania Trump as an example.
The video has since gone viral and was deleted from the 1st General Baptist Church of Malden's website.
