fkaz: I can now see those behind the rot in this nation, because despite all their investment in winning soul,building school,transforming lives,beauty for ashes, boa boa boa. It is now time 2 flex grin Δπϑ the country is still going worse,with all your prayer. BABA GOD U DEY HEAR YOUR PASTORS O.


It is very pertinent to note that LIFE, nay, GOD does not treat all equally. That depends on the zone you are located spiritually. God does not treat all equally in certain respects. Right here in Nigeria for example, you could inspite of the Wealth that is abundant live as if you are in a remote and Parched desert, wallowing in Want and Poverty. There are those dwelling in darkness and shut up in 'PRISONs' even if it is not physical. The solution to poverty is not necessarily good governance.....which have eluded many inspite of their education. Some are living spiritually in a cursed zone...while others bask in the light. think of it again, the beautiful and blessed nations on the earth have certain things in common spiritually and historically...Every one wants to get to United States, Canada, Australia, Great Britain, South Korea,Netherlands,Germany, France, Switzerland...and most recently, Israel who have turned an Arid Desert into a blooming Paradise. Those associated with these nations also have shown great improvements and signs of prosperity as a result.....
Indeed, 'the DARK PLACES OF THE EARTH ARE FILLED WITH THE HABITATIONS OF CRUELLTY'. MISGOVERNANCE, PERVERSION, HOSTILITIES,WARS, RIOTS,BAD LUCK, CORRUPTIOn, SLAVErY, EXPLOITATION, IGNORANCE, SICKNESS & MALIGNANT POVERTY seem to be their lot and have a tight hold on the people inspite of everything good available. .... while the ignorant are busy clenching their teeth in maliicious envy at the prosperity of others better than them, i pray....that...the people who dwell in Darkness should wake up to see that Great light who turns the lives of men around.

May GOD almighty (YAHWEH) Open our eyes to see and our mind to understand , i think Helicopter will be a better way to preach the gospel from rural area to urban center , than spending so much on private jets in the name of gospel.

If GOD bless u with a private Jet as a pastor , use it with care and do not forget that we have more than this world and we have somewhere better greater and more beautiful than this earth and this place your private jet will not count but your good deeds.

REVOLUTNIS:
ur reply didn't answer my question. i agree wt the Bible references here but i think u are contradict urself sir.
u said u are a co creator with God who in Genesis 1:26-27 "And God said, let us make man in our image, after our likeness" the plural "Let us" is talking of Trinity or Godhead referring to God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. Where did u MAN fall in to be a 'co creator with ALMIGHTY God? that He blessed them and charged the sons of Noah to be fruitful, and multiply; bring forth abundantly in the earth, and multiply therein.Gen 9:7 Does these made MAN a co creator with Elohim? u quoted Matt 16:19, how does it fit-in in MAN being a co creator with God. Sir,explain to me how u MAN become a co creator with GOD.

Sir,you have spoken well. You never insulted me becos you didn't agree with me. I can perceive that you are a christian who stive for the word. May God bless you sir.
Concerning the quote Gen 1:26, 'Let's make man in our own image,man was not there but trinity like u rightly said. But i gave u that quote to show you a little or tail end of the creative powers of God. Now God said again,''Let them(man)have dominion over the sea,air and land'' If you read down you will see what we are expected to have dominion over.God is is giving us part of his powers. Now see below what he said to us in Gen 1:28:
''God bless them and said to them,''BE FRUITFUL'' to be fruitful means to be productive. In the beging we saw how fruitful and productive God is ! And HE is now empowering us fuully by asking us to be productive! You see the link of the Trinity empowering man to do things ! Remeber HE said 'LET US MAKE MAN IN OUR OWN IMAGE''
Gen.35:11 God said''I am God Almighty; B[b]E FRUITFUL AND INCREASE IN NUMBER'[/b]' He said we should increase in number. He did not do it directly but gave me and YOU the power to produce or create fellow men ! He made us co-creators by saying we should be FRUITFUL AND INCREASE IN NUMBER. God gave us powers to produce humans ! By the GRACE OF THE ALMIGHTY GOD, MY WIFE AND I WILL PRODUCE A BABY THIS DECEMBER IN THE MIGHTY NAME OF JESUS...Amen. Why is it possible? God made it possible by making us to be co-creators with HIM!
Deutronomy 6:6 said These words which i command you this day shall be in your hearts.You shall teach them diligently to ur children,and shall talk to them whaen you sit in ur house,when u walk by the way,when you lie down and wen u rise up.'' God did not come to do this other creative part of life but asked me to do it !Any christian who does not do according to the dictates regarding christian admonition to his or her children is limiting the creative powesr of God in him and God will not be happy with such a person.
See below what Jesus is saying concerning the powers HE HAS GIVEN ME:
''I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be[a] bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.”Mathew 16:19
The above is a fit only Christ can accomplish. But HE gave it you and I ! Any day i fail to take authority,i will be limiting the powers given to me by God.
My friend and broda in Christ Jesus,if the above still does not answer ur question wether WE(you and I) are co creators with God the father,son and the holly spirit,then i can't do any other thing but to pray that God via the holly spirit will help u see it some day !
God bless us all

Let God be the judge !
See below what Christ said :

''You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye.
Mathew 7:1-3 ''Judge not, that ye be not judged''. Mathew 7:5

2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.

3 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?''

Work out your own salvation with fear and trembling !

I'm not disturbed in anyway with the negative comments i see or hear about pastors. Pators are human just like you and i. If there is any one of them that has done something 'wrong',what i will do is to let him know according to the dictates of the bible and i go home and pray for them ! God and my wife will bare me withness that we(My wife and i)both pray for the country Nigeria morning and night ! I pray also for the fake and true men of God (POPE,REV.PASTORS,BISHOPS,DEACONS,EVANGELISTS AND OTHER BELIEVERS AND NON BELIEVERS) That is what i am saying my friend. Let us pray for them Becos i dnt belive in the doctrines of the roman catholic church does not mean i should insult and abuse the pope ! But God knows his pple ! Just pray for them all ! But i know becos the bible says that all liars will end up in hell ! Anyone who lives in sin and does not want to repent will end up in hell ! I did not say so but that is a statement of fact according to the bible ! We should not be happy that fake men of God should end up in hell ! Pray for them to repent my friend !

Goshen360: Okay Bishop Wale Oke. I know I love you and have been blessed by your very own ministry when I schooled at Federal Polytechnic, Offa in Kwara state, Nigeria on one of your radio transmitted in Offa.

With due respect sir, I'll like to comment on this arrogant statement of yours perhaps you may be reading:



This is nothing but an arrogant statements. So it has become you guys (MoGs) who wins the soul and no longer the Holy Spirit? It has become you and your colleague who empowers the poor and yet many Nigerians are still living under $2/day? It is no longer God who work through you as a vessel Your statements are filled with self achievement and doesn't answer to scripture sir. Even the universities built, how many of the members in their economic state can afford the tuition aside the rich. You boast of transforming lives and yet, life itself is not in the abundance of what man owns but quality.

Jesus said, "I have glorified you on the earth: I have finished the work which you gave me to do", John 17:4 and Apostle Paul said same thing in 2 Timothy 4:7. When Jesus and the Apostle made such a bold statement, Jesus had not even died and yet he said, "he had finishED the work". What then is the finished work when he had not died? He had REPRODUCED himself in a generation of men that will work according the same work he had done. Today's MoG are busy expanding their empire, not the kingdom and REPRODUCING collection centers called "church branches" whereby they can accumulate more money to acquire their earthly possessions. How many of Adeboye's Pastor have their private jets How many of Ayo Oritsejafor's branch pastor have the their own jets Or are they not all called to preach the gospel

Again, nobody is envy of your private jet since we now know you are also beginning to covet after your own private jet hence you must come out to defend MoGs with private jets. The real critics is the means by which the private jets are acquired. When MoGs use all sort of gimmicks to milk the sheep in order to acquire wealth is the real issue sir.

It's even more worrisome that people are afraid to correct the pastors when they are clearly derailing. The way the jet madness is on the rise, any pastor that doesn't have one means that his ministry is not doing well. I expect the next round of competition to be: How many jets do you have?

Criminals use ipads and cell phones,does using such gadgets make me a criminal also?
People who lodge in hotels go in with the opposite sex most times !Does dat mean if i lodge in a hotel overnight i must go in with an opposite sex ?

The question should be; why do you need a private jet ?
If it is a want and not a need,then relax until it becomes a need ! See below what the word of God said concerning NEEDS:
''And my God will supply all your needs according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus.-Phillipians 4:19

If Nigeria was a country in which charity was seen and not only heard perhaps one would be tempted to think it is for good reasons.
However, this is far from the case and so you can try supporting these workers of iniquity as much as you like but there are a few of us who can discern (thank God for this ability) and would not be taken for fools.
Sorry, this new craze for private jets is as a result of too much cash sitting pretty in some church accounts and the custodians (men of the robe) thinking how best they can enjoy it becase it is pointless having so much money and not being able to enjoy it.

*Sigh* Naija mentality at work 100%

Methinks that there's a lot of bandwagon-ing going on with these MOGs, as well as a lot of undue media attention.
As far as I remember, Winners Chapel has had aircraft since the 90s. It never raised much attention back then. It's only recently, when every other church seems to be scrambling to buy a jet, that the public interest has soared.

If the church buys a jet, it's their business essentially. If the people who go to that church don't like it, they can take a walk, or better yet, sue the church management and ask for a tithe refund, whatever. My opinion. Nobody forced anybody to go to any church. I'd rather save my energy for the cretins we voted for.

However the church people should downplay such purchases. Me thinks the pastors dey flex jare, in the Naija tradition. That seems to be what is riling the general public up. Every minister and their dog is trying to get a jet nowadays. I trust Oyinbos, the tax men would have gone after such churches by now. If the aircrafts were for missionary work, why not downplay the purchases instead of making noise about them? Though even if they try to play it down, I am sure the likes of City People etc will find a way to put a spin on the story and make it come out as a 'lau-lau' arrangement.

lexio: I'm so distressed by this statement. It appears that rewards are no longer in heaven but right here on earth. Enumerating your achievements for God as grounds for possessing extreme wealth is ridiculous as a religious leader. Can the branches of any Christian denomination be more than that of the Catholic Church world-wide or the anglican communion? Their leaders have no jets. Well with the use of logic, anything is justifiable.

You sure have mastered the art of circumlocution.
Some things are straightforward but I guess even you cannot account for a lack of conscience.

If Nigeria was a country in which charity was seen and not only heard perhaps one would be tempted to think it is for good reasons.
However, this is far from the case and so you can try supporting these workers of iniquity as much as you like but there are a few of us who can discern (thank God for this ability) and would not be taken for fools.
Sorry, this new craze for private jets is as a result of too much cash sitting pretty in some church accounts and the custodians (men of the robe) thinking how best they can enjoy it becase it is pointless having so much money and not being able to enjoy it.

Thanks for your reply to the wise guy. God bless you

By the special grace of GOD i have bin able to answer most of ur questions if not all using the word of God which is the only book given to christians for reproof,correction and admonition ! I dnt see how i have dodged any of ur questions or used big words to confuse you but yet you say i have ''mastered the art of circumlocution''.
Anyways, i know for sure that to convince in christianity isn't a theological debate or argument but the preaching of the word which goes forth and when heeded to,the holy spirit takes over from there !
Nothing happens in our lives unless we heed first to the word !
God bless us
