Nigerian actor Yul Edochie has criticized individuals who identify as born-again Christians yet continue to exhibit wicked behavior.

In a recent post on his Facebook page, he urged these individuals to cease their self-deception.

He pointed out that while some profess to be born again by abandoning flashy attire, makeup, and habits such as drinking and smoking, the malevolence within their hearts remains unaddressed.

He wrote, “Some people will tell you they are now born again. They stop wearing flashy clothes, stop wearing makeup, quit drinking and smoking, but the wickedness in their hearts remain untouched.

“Stop deceiving yourself, God is not interested in your style of dressing or all that, he’s interested in how you treat your fellow human beings.

“Being born again means living a Christian life, and living a Christian life means treating others with love and respect, same way you would want them to treat you.”
