masotemi: [color=#006600][/color][sub][/sub]I'm afraid your argument is so daft-ic, exposing your ignorance. You can be a professor or top class professional and still be gullible as you may be as intelligent as anything yet, your intellect may be found wanting. Secondly, i cant remember any of the churches did ''good deeds and charitable works'' that impacted the public positively, rather, all we've been hearing and seeing is the insatiable penchant for accumulation of wealth by the church founders/owners so much so that they compete favorably with their politician brothers and sisters in terms of misappropriation of commonwealths. I can help but laugh to read that ''Lagos/Ibadan expressway would have remained a forest/den of armed robbers if the churches had not taken the initiatives to open up the area!'' Its only a blockhead that can make such spurious assertion. Despite the chaos and insanity brought to the Ibadan expressway by the churches, to you, that is sign of development afterall, the untold hardship experienced by motorists on that road and caused by the churches is a welcome development in the sight of your god. Nothing could be more idiotic! 3 Likes |

For years, I've been looking for the difference between Nigerian pastors and Yahoo! Boys but found nothing. Their Modus Operandi is the same. Play on your victim's emotion, scam them of their valuables while promising them an imaginary reward. Repeat above. I'm sure the most gullible people in the world would be found among Nigerian Pentecostal churchgoers. It beats me how they manage to remain dumb for so long. |

It is the reason they call it religious institution. It is set-up to school the gullible. All the worshipers have to do is to pay their dues inorder to be deceived... Corruption in Nigeria will continue to grow as long as political & religious greed heightens... Man Know thyself. |

m.k.o2005: Umm......SUFFERING & SMILING. For many years I've been in UK, I've never heard about any Arch Bishop launching a book....that would have been a TOTAL DEVIATION from their primary Obligation. Again it's all African churches that are into all this money making and donation palavar. We've taken church to a different level, beyond those that brought Christianity to us, as a matter of fact Nigeria Leads among all other BUSINESS CHURCHES. I must say it's a choice that some people have made and it's a shame that Vulnerable people have to be exploited in the this process. Again I've never heard about any CHURCH LEADER OR MAN OF GOD as NIGERIANS portray them to have a PRIVATE JET....what a CELEBRITY PASTOR, Clearly it's all business, even world business mogul RICHARD BRANSON that runs Virgin Airline has no private jet to himself except our Men Of God that suppose to serve and preach gospel to the people suddenly become a business Mogul. World Pope has NO PRIVATE JET Nigeria I hail thee. 2 Likes |

These are part of the reason why Nigeria is still backward in the committee of Great Nation..... Nigria is uneccessary rooted with this religion Bigotery and it's having a negative effect on the socio-economic development of the nation. Nation like United States of America where I live dont take spiritual con G as anything and thats why they are far ahead of the game unlike most blind-folded african continent with its Headquaters in Nigeria.. 1 Like |

Nigerians generally dont like to hear the truth. We have a ton of usless people parading themselves as "PAstor" and people just dey follow follow. If you say that it doesnt make sense to have more pastors and churches than factories they go say, " why do you insult a MAN of GOD" as if men of god only dey in the Nig.er Area banana republic that cannot boast of a National AIrline. You see, when the revoluton hits, these very ordinary men who are using bible to gain power, relevance, and attention, from Adeboye to TB Joshua, to the other private jet owners, they will have to answer to the deception and distraction of the people they cause and continue to cause. Nigerians wake up. Those who brought bible to you have light in their place, and are not carrying "Men o God" on their head. IDIOTS 1 Like |

Well unless you want to claim to be an Illiterate. masotemi:Financial starvation is not the only problem of man. Do you think every accomplished persons are happy? They probably have some past evil deeds that needs retribution for God via a man that offers a means of short cut. An example is the case of Akingbola, Cecilia, Atuche and the list goes on. Infact I forgot to add Ibori masotemi:Kindly give me an example of someone. I work in a bank and I can still admit that according to the tenets of the bible my money is not clean because the banking environment is so corrupt.... Need I say more masotemi:The cost. Besides buying expensive Jet fuel, parking the jet alone is costly. So flying or not, u'll still be incuring cost. Hope you have now been enlightened masotemi:The church was created and meant to abide by divine laws dat I'm sorry are no longer been followed. That why energy is directed there. Gerrit. Save souls not get money and live large. masotemi:Becos there is none. Its not their priority. Kindly name one charity work done by any of these jet flying pastors that still doesn't translate to extortion masotemi:And whoever told you the place was neglected. Religious organisation brought chaos to that road my friend. Try traveling when their progs are going on you'll know what I'm talking about. They shouldn't have gone there in the first place.

Perhaps one sheep might say to the other: Those men are killers, one day they would take us to the slaughter and dine on our carcass. In disbelief the other sheep would say: Impossible, do you know how much he has done for us? Do you know that in the last year he has taken me from pasture to pasture? Do you know that when the wolf came around he fought it off with his rod? You might choose to escape but for me, na here I go die.

Wealth acquisation is a cancer that is destroying the church. The nation cannot fight corruption when religious bodies don't rebuke corrupt persons and indulge in the same practice. The love of money is the root of all evil.But not limited to saving souls ! The primary role of Jesus was to come die for man kind but it did not stop there as he was busy going around doing good ! Healing the lepers,raising the dead and also teaching men who follow him how to be good fishers of men. The love of money is the root of all evil.The bible never said money is evil ! God gave his children power to make wealth and christ said we should learn to manage this wealth we have made for the true heavenly riches to be committed into our hands.If as a child of God,i desire the good things of life,are pastors not also the children of God ?The kingdom of God comes with all these but if you choose to be limited,you can be limited after all wealth will not take you to heaven NEITHER WILL POVERTY TAKE YOU TO HEAVEN !If you follow these men of God you will observe that they dnt condone corrupt practices but you now see them as corrupt people becos they ride on cars and fly as well.I think if your father owns a jet you will be happy.But i will only be sad if my father owns a jet,appears on FORBES LIST AS THE RICHEST MAN IN THE WORLD BUT DOES NOT HAVE JESUS ! If these men got Jesus,why do you now criticise them ? Bro,they didn't steal from you and please dnt judge them just becos your church is yet to show you in the scriptures how you can receive from God ! The church AND THE men OF GOD gives nothing ! It is the WORD of God that gives all ! Any teaching that isn't scriptural is not from God.These men jst took something from the devil BY SHOWING US SCRIPTURALLY HOW gOD GIVES. bUT THE DEVIL ONLY WANT PPLE TO COME TO HIM SO HE CAN GIVE THEM THE LOOK ALIKE OF wealth but not the true riches and wealth from God !

His private jet was presented while he was sandwiched, like Jesus between two thieves, in the presence of a President who bizarrely declared he couldn’t see how corruption and road accidents are interlinked and, a governor whose public morals fall below average. But here’s the problem: These pastors know that with Nigeria’s developmental progress comes their end. And they are actively complicit in the dysfunctionality of Nigeria to extend their own longevity. The above is the meat of the article for me Classic Also after reading the various reactions to the article, I'm at a tie regarding who should be crowned religious maga of the decade between m.k.o2005 and masotemi ![]() ![]() But hold it, they may be pastorpreneurs O! ![]() ![]() 3 Likes |

m.k.o2005:If you own a copy of the Bible please read Matthew 7:28,29 and act 4:13. Those portions of the scriptures show that neither Jesus nor his 1st century disciples were considered dumb. The reason why people like you are dumb is because you have become followers or men rather than God. Contrary to your unreasonable assertion people actually give their lives to Christ till today because they consider him to the the wisest, smartest and most caring man to traverse the face of the earth. Your response is a reaffirmation of your being eminently worthy of the diadem of foolishness earlier conferred on you. 3 Likes |

m.k.o2005: are you saying all the members are rich because they are giving to pastors ![]() are you aware that the bible did not stipulate you should give to the pastor but church (the body of christ)?? are you aware that the bible was explicit when it says you should bring offering to the church?? why are pastors utilizing that which is meant for the church?? my pastor said that people who do not pay tithe are robbing God. i believed him, after people paid. the rest became history. is that not a slap on common sense?? how can you call me a thief for not paying tithe yet you are not accountable to me when using the money others have paid? my verdict is simple, any pastor that solely uses Gods money for luxury has robbed God not even poor members like people errorneously allege. God must have a good reason why Jesus wasnt the richest in his time. and any follower of christ should not live in opulence. lastly, it is my duty to stop pastor from stealing Gods money as much as it is his duty to remind me when i rob God for not paying my tithe. for every christian who allowed their pastors to use Gods money for frivolities, you will be judged accordingly. stop Nigerian pastors today and make our society a better place. |
