Macaulay revealed this on his Instagram page on Wednesday where he also posted a copy of his invitation letter.

He wrote, “It is a delight to share this news, I am to be ordained Anglican Priest in the Church of England in June 2019. “Wait on the Lord, be of Good courage and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait I say, on the Lord” Psalm 27:14.”Macaulay was born on November 4, 1965. He is a pastor and ordained minister, an LGBTQ, human rights, and HIV/AIDS activist, community builder, queer theologian, lawyer, and parent. Macaulay founded House of Rainbow, Nigeria’s first house of worship catering to the LGBTQ community, and currently serves as its executive director.

Macaulay studied at several primary and secondary schools in Nigeria, and graduated in 1986. While in school, he was involved in several drama and poetry activities, and later set up the Poetry Inspired Club for young people. Macaulay was also interested in music and directing, but soon lost passion for both and began to focus on his theological development.

According to Ubuntubiographyproject.com, Macaulay’s Christian upbringing had always forced him into a different understanding of same-sex relations, and he married a woman under the guise of spiritual healing at the age of 24. While Macaulay experienced same-gender relationships and desires before marriage, it was not until after his divorce in 1994 that he fully came out as gay, with a great effort to reconcile his faith, spirituality, culture, and sexuality.

What a sacrilege in God's household! No wonder terrible disasters visit this debased West.

Atrocity!!!

Nigeria has no church of its own, churches belong to Rome and England whatever you call it elsewhere matters not. They have the authority and make them rules.

Signs of end times. What a world.

The church has always been a tool for control! They can’t hide their true intention anymore! Roll em all our

Abomination

RIP, destruction await you.

He is no longer a Nigerian.

The westerners introduced Christianity to us & they choose what to do with it. Believe in what you concience believe & not the church.

absolute madness

God have mercy on you and the church of England

Abomination. It can only happened in London

His not a Nigerian.

If this man later realized his sinful act and turn to christ eventually he will make ADVICE STOP PASSING YOUR JUDGMENT YET YOU ARE NOT GOD OF THE UNIVERSE.BESIDES YOU ARE NOT PERFECT.SOME OF US DO COMMIT ADULTERY AND FORNICATION SECRETLY HERE U ARE TALKING

Abomination

This is sodomized generation, God have mercy and raise more labourer to your vineyard

Shame on the church

We are talented in Naija. All you need to do is brush up and the money will start coming. Can he try that rubbish here.....Hell No.

God forbid

Anglican Church is a mess ......., Yoruba tribe is fucked

Church of Satan lolz

😃😃😃 I love God...He will allow you to do your thing.the consequence is on the last day But the bible said, For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God. And if it first begin at us,what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God.1peter 4:17

If because we want to catch monkeys we begin to behave like monkeys, we will only end up multiplying the number of monkeys, and the souls we are trying to win to Christ will never partake of the image of God that we have. A word is enough for the wise.

His ordination will continue in hell

If you're ask to go England, you'll jump up! Let him be himself but later you say the bible said don't judge, so you shouldn't come to England because there's a lot of gays in the country! Stop your president not to go to UK,USA Canada etc

I am a muslim, however this man in no way represent the christian faith. His devilish character should be restricted to himself and to those who believe such opinion.

The British is always controversial and biased. They are very crooked and selfish nation that's why king Henry Vlll pulled out from Catholic church, now we are seeing the end point ...Thank God Nigeria pulled out to form Anglican church of Nigeria!

So disgusting! Impossible 4 u 2 b gay & b a Christian d same time. There's no correlation btw d two. Once u're gay, u cease 2 b Christian!! It's d devil that opposes GOD ALMIGHTY in all ramifications!!! Being gay is devilish bcos it's against GOD'S Plan. All gays will go 2 hell

Good punish ur life

Very Shameful......

That can only happen in England and not Naija.Sick people!

End time is this Ooooooooooo se?

They're mad!

We live in a depraved world

BadaAmoo How u know he is a gay? No gay should be made a priest its a mockery of Christianity

Devils Advocate😓

The end time is here!!

I thought they said king James in the bible too was gay?

Very funny...The bible have warn us against gay ; the can't even be ordained...if they do it They want to populate the kingdom of hell....

If you said he is a reverend, why the ordination because is the ordination to make u a reverend.

He's not a reverend.

Just say church of the devil, because a real church is against gay!

A True Church won't ordained a Gay

It's unfortunate for the Church of Christ.
