Controversial Nigerian Pastor T.B. Joshua has put substance into his claim of leading a ‘church of all nations’ after packing an Olympic stadium in the South American nation of Colombia for a miracle crusade last weekend. With almost 100,000 people attending the three day event, culminating with a pastor’s conference, the coming of the Nigerian pastor caused a stir within local media with several newspapers, television stations and radio networks covering the occasion. Joshua, who is the head of The Synagogue, Church Of All Nations (SCOAN) and founder of Christian television network Emmanuel TV, preached on the subject of faith in both days of the crusade, held at the Pascual Guerrero Olympic Stadium in Cali, Colombia. In a message titled, ‘The Price Of Faith’, he stressed that both God’s Word and Spirit must be in consonance for Scriptural results to accompany ministry today. “We are making Jesus Christ unpopular because Jesus is the Word and the Spirit but today we have taken Jesus as the Word,” the cleric lamented, calling on the church to stop exuding envy and jealousy and learn from each other. The Nigerian pastor then ministered prayer to the sick and infirm. Notable miracles followed, including wheelchair bound invalids rising up and walking and a young man brought to the event on a mattress miraculously leaving it behind. Each move from the prophet was accompanied by applause from the Colombians, the cry of ‘Cristo vive’ (Christ lives) reverberating around the stadium at every miracle that unfolded. Despite language barrier, Joshua evidently won the hearts of the locals with his simplicity and warmth. He enjoined international attendees to invest in Colombia, stating that the impression the international community had about the nation was quite different to what he had personally experienced. When Joshua offered ‘mass prayer’ for everyone within the stadium, calling on all ‘unclean spirits’ of witchcraft and immorality of a sexual nature to be exposed, the resultant pandemonium was extraordinary. “All spirits of affliction, witchcraft, divination, immorality and lust – I command them out, in the name of Jesus Christ,” Joshua bellowed, translators conveying his every word in Spanish. People throughout the stadium began rolling, screaming, vomiting and writhing uncannily on the floor. “The evil spirits behind their problems are being cast out,” a commentator frantically explained. Striving to differentiate himself from the stereotypical ‘money-mongering’ connotation attached to Pentecostal pastors of his ilk, Joshua made it clear that material gain was not the focus of the event but the salvation of souls. “Miracles, signs, wonders, deliverance and healing cannot be exchanged with money,” he warned the crowd, a statement backed up by the free entrance to the event and equally free distribution of ministry materials to attendees. This was coupled by a humanitarian event held on Wednesday 16th July in which Joshua and his team distributed foodstuff to thousands of less privileged families. Pictures of the whole event, which was broadcast live on Emmanuel TV and local Colombian channel ‘Telefamilia’, were posted on Joshua’s official Facebook account, followed by over one million people.

God bless TB Jo', though I've never been to his church and I hope I will never have a reason to be there, but He's a true evengelist, cos He will do anything for the gospel. @least our Evangelists are doing world class crusades with picture/video evidence to show us unlike our artists that tour 19 countries on pages of newspaper without even picture evidence. 1 Like |

lofty900: yes he does but in other countries. the man is global., but pastor chris is more globalTrue Pastor Chris holds crusade in every continent apart from Antarctica. He is the most popular African Pastor in any continent out of Africa, his books Rhapsody of Realities is in any country you go in more than 200 languages, I keep coming in contact with his Rhapsody of Realities in several countries i have visited , at first the whites over here taught Pastor Chris was from America cos the crowd that pack out his crusade n the expensive suits they see his members wear during his crusade. You need to see Pastor Chris numerous crusades in Texas, Ontario n other cities in United States n Canada being shown across American n Canadian TVs stations , you will sometimes wonder if he is truly a Nigerian cos of the way whites n non Nigerians pack out his crusade venues. stadiums and arenas are filled up in any of his crusade, night of bliss, atmosphere for miracles on higher life Conferences in US n Canada . My Indian friends said Pastor Chris was invited for a crusade in India some months back, the stadium was filled up n they said something remarkable happened during the crusade, after Pastor Chris had finished his own session at the crusade, the other preachers from other countries told Pastor Chris to preach for the remaining sessions n days of the crusade, that they were amazed how he had had a great mastery of the word of God in a never before seen manner. They say the authorities in India want to prevent Pastor Chris from coming to India again cos of the miracles that took place during the crusade at the stadium n also because of the over 10,000 Hindu n Buddhist worshippers who converted to Christianity when he asked them to give their life to Christ at the stadium. The India authorities also prevented Benny Hinn from coming to that same crusade cos Benny Hinn had held a crusade earlier in India where he converted Hindu n Buddhist worshippers to Christian n carried out miracles. 6 Likes |

At least gospel is the only credible product manufacture and export from Nigeria. Tell me what? The raw materials are imported from Israel as their own waste product. Nigerians keep showing the world the God you don't know. |

mickyarams: If only God can tell him where Shekau is hiding! Even if he know and tell Nigerian army, they will tell boko haram that he gave them information and they will come after him... the only solution to Boko Haram is Our leaders to tell what the their negotiators discuss with hem instead of gambling with our lives...... |
