@dhaewood, did jesus had anything equivalent to private jets during his days?Please tell us, what do you think is equivalent to a jet during Jesus' days. When that is done we can then begin to do some comparisons. |

@dhaewood, i accuse no man,your intuitive mind must tell you d truth, don't be a dogmat, in nigeria everythig a pastor does is right,we say GOD say they should do it that's final justification,Is this a tacit acknowledgement that you cannot back up your claims with facts? |
Re: Adeboye Shops For $20m Jet by dhaewood(m): 11:04pm On Jul 17, 2008 |

Dear NairaLand From the reading everybody's post . I can simply come to conclusion that we are equally as guilty that is if the man of God is actually buying a jet. The Question is, almost everyone at one or the other spent money on very expensive stuff, the question could have been , why did you not give to money to poor or used the money for the furtherance of the gospel of Christ. Whether you buy JEt, BMw, mercedes, jewels or that expensive shoe. The amount is not relevant. That amount whether some or large could have made a big difference in somebodies life |
Re: Adeboye Shops For $20m Jet by Ibime(m): 11:52pm On Jul 17, 2008 |
Yeah, he wants a private jet - just like Paul wanted a private boat when he was travelling around abi? Or just like Jesus wanted a private donkey for all his trekking through Israel - these conmen should be exposed for what they are. This is sickening. |
Re: Adeboye Shops For $20m Jet by BlackChap: 12:26am On Jul 18, 2008 |
It might sound very insensitive spending so much on private jet with the present economy, but I guess we need to admit the fact that this church (which I do not attend) has really spread across the world and might need some private transportation to keep the vision alive. I beg let's stop whinging about this guy. |

If even in rich western countries there's an outcry over billionaire churches and pastors, how much more Nigeria with the rampant poverty and discouragement everywhere? Am I making sense here?

@Davidlan and other mediocres Try seeing things beyond your nose before exposing your level of ignorance on a forum like this. This man of God serves God with complete humility and sincererity. Now do you know how it all started in RCCG, dO you know where the ministry is heading to, do know how much that has been spent on charity and still on going, do you know what impact has this mighty ministry played in the academic standard in Nigeria and the rest of the world, now what do u really know about RCCG AND PASTOR ADEBOYE i'm sure nothing but u can increase your strength and criticise, wierd and sad. Has any of you openly criticise his/her local councillor for embezzling constituency finance not to talk of your state governor, i'm sure you dare not. But u guys can amazingly slander a man of GOD within a blink of an eye without thinking about it. Please let's think and reason well, churches are not the cause of poverty in Nigeria rather they are doing their best to end poverty, please lets think and look before we leap before endagering ourself with the wrath of ALMIGHTY GOD YAWEH. PART OF THE PROBLEM OF NIGERIA IS MANY CITIZEN CANNOT THINK THEIR WAY FROM POVERTY. REMEMBER IT IS WRITTEN IN THE BOOK OF JOHN 14:14 if ye ask anything in my name i will do it. IT MEANS BY FAITH YOU CAN BUY YOUR PASTOR A JET WHEN GOD HAS FINISHED BLESSING YOU. |
Re: Adeboye Shops For $20m Jet by tpia: 1:03am On Jul 18, 2008 |
people are now mediocres because they can't afford to buy a $20 million jet or what? Is your bank account now the measure of spirituality? |
Re: Adeboye Shops For $20m Jet by paribus(m): 1:06am On Jul 18, 2008 |
I posted this some time back on if expensive church buildings are necessary. I think the post makes sense here as well. The title reminded me of a 2Pac interview some time way back. The snippets are below:
I don't necessarily share Pac's views on religion but i'm inclined to agree with him on this. In a similar manner, I don't quite agree with using $20million to buy a jet for the church when majority of the church members possibly lives on less than $500 a month (and that's a humble estimate). $20 million by way of scholarships, education funding, small business startup assistance, soft loans etc would likely save more souls than a private jet would do IMHO. |
Re: Adeboye Shops For $20m Jet by skyone(m): 1:20am On Jul 18, 2008 |
tpia:What's your understanding of mediocrity in context to this discussion |
Re: Adeboye Shops For $20m Jet by tpia: 1:41am On Jul 18, 2008 |
skyone: skyone: just showing you how shallow you are. What's your own understanding of mediocre? Am sure you wouldnt consider me or anyone here mediocre if you felt one of us has a $20 million jet. So how can citizens think their way from poverty if they're constantly being told its more important to make the clergy richer, than it is for them to develop self sustaining abilities? With all the religiousity in Nigeria, shouldnt church attendees have thought their way out of poverty by now? Do they lack faith or what are they doing wrong? |
Re: Adeboye Shops For $20m Jet by skyone(m): 1:59am On Jul 18, 2008 |
tpia: Simple question with an abject answer pathetic. Now i'll help you; mediocre (you) =Moderate to inferior in quality therefore a person like you who think a jet is too luxurious for a MAN who oversee over 5 thousand parish of RCCG all around the world is a complete mediocre. Do they lack faith or what are they doing wrong[color=#990000][/color]: i guess EITHER tpia: read with understanding never implied you have the bigbox, i said by faith you can' |
Re: Adeboye Shops For $20m Jet by akae47us(m): 2:20am On Jul 18, 2008 |
when there is too much money to spend people begin to act greedy and think selfishly big. Anyway, the Lord will always fight for his helpless people. Let us not quickly forget Stella Obasanjo and how she died. If no be too much money to G.O no incure the wrath of God. if you have that money, assemble your congregation and distribute it. if you are short of ideas on how to distribute it then one way is to consider using the money to subsidise tuiton fees funding in Convenant university so that even the poor can have an equal opportunity to study. Finito. |
Re: Adeboye Shops For $20m Jet by Nobody: 2:39am On Jul 18, 2008 |
skyone: Subtly the devil makes them to worship idols and to reverence man. It is not about MAN, it is about Christ who shed His blood for 6 billion!! This same Christ did not own a single fishing boat in 33 yrs on earth . . . surely you'll regard the lowly carpenter from Bethlehem a mediocre. I leave you all to ur pursuit of filthy lucre in the name of Christ. |
Re: Adeboye Shops For $20m Jet by TayoD1(m): 4:39am On Jul 18, 2008 |
@Ibime, Yeah, he wants a private jet - just like Paul wanted a private boat when he was travelling around abi? Or just like Jesus wanted a private donkey for all his trekking through Israel - these conmen should be exposed for what they are. This is sickening.The same Jesus that asked for a colt/ass that no one as ever sat on? Please translate that to today and try to imagine its implications. @Davidylan, I asked you a simple question. Is one soul that gets won to Christ through the use of that $20 million Jet worth it? |
Re: Adeboye Shops For $20m Jet by Eesyboi: 6:04am On Jul 18, 2008 |
I agree with you Kunle, But i still see nothing bad in a pastor wanting a Jet to Advertise the word of God, Its just like a poor man asking for money to buy Bible and Bicycle so he can advertise the word of God among his neighborhood. We are taking this a big case cos the Church is Popular, there are lots of it happening among small churches, |
Re: Adeboye Shops For $20m Jet by Nobody: 6:09am On Jul 18, 2008 |
Tayo-D: Yawn. Just the same way religious merchants aka pastors use Malachi 4 to con the people of their hard earned cash. That was simply a fulfillment of prophecy (Zech 9:9) . . . Did you wonder why Christ never asked for donations to buy a fishing boat of His own to preach to the people? Why did He not borrow this colt earlier in His ministry to ride around Jerusalem on His preaching tour? You people and mutilation of scripture to suit your own inherent greed couched as "prosperity of God". Tayo-D: [size=18pt]NO[/size] Debosky asked a fundamental question - is the soul 900 km away more valuable than the soul just 9 inches from you? My answer is NO for a simple reason, Cain also prepared a burnt offering to the Lord and it was soundly rejected . . . why? Was the offering not worth it? The real reason behind purchasing the jet is not out of love for the "souls" of the lost but more out of convenience for those who purport to preach the message of the cross . . . a message whose number one doctrine is that of denial. If Paul did not require a 5m shekel golden Chariot with the finest race horses of Rome to "preach the gospel" to the Syrians and Corinthians or Athenians . . . neither will the men of this generation have any excuse on the last day. |
Re: Adeboye Shops For $20m Jet by Nobody: 6:19am On Jul 18, 2008 |
Eesyboi: For this cause did the bible say - 2 Corinthians 3:2 Ye are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read of all men: You dont need a bible or bicycle to "advertise" the Word . . . all you need is YOU! The early apostles didnt "advertise" the word on the day of pentecost . . . the people saw and were amazed. The name "christian" did not come about because Paul suddenly got a brainwave to name his new church . . . "Paul's Christian Chapel" . . . it came by as a result of unsaved men who saw these men (even without a bible, horse or bicycle) and acknowledged that indeed these men were just like Christ. |
