The vatican is as old as time itself. The state was made to serve as mecca of a sort and a reminder of where catholism started. If you have been there b4, u notice the place is as old as wetin and such building, paintings, relics are ordinarily expensive. The popes r to lead it simple lifestyle to show the world that MONEY isn't everything. Quote me, if the pope wants a BOE737 jet now, he can get it but he knows material things fade. Check the list of popes b4 him especially pope john paul II. They lived simple lifestyles in the presence of affluence.
The church channels it resources into orphanages, feeding the poor, and other life changing works aimed at bettering humanity which our "men of God" sorry "god of men" seems to forget. For Christ sake, wetin pastor dey do wt 4 private jets. One no do to do God's work. The pope is the leader of over 1.2billion catholics and yet no dey carry himself. That's why the papalcy will always be revered and always a pointer to our "god of men" to follow

This is not the African Way.
The Pope is wrong. How can we respect him as a man of God if he travels amongst the common people? How can we glorify one who does not glorify himself? He is a messenger of God!! He should reflect God's power accordingly.We do not exalt those on our own level. A true pastor must SHOW he is above us in every way.

The Vatican has billions and BILLIONS in precious metals and stones but this pope does not display any of this for us to admire. If we cannot SEE and admire a man's power and wealth how can we follow him and give unto his glory?

This pope is a disgrace to Christianity. A man of God cannot be humble. He must be mighty as God is mighty.Fly your private jet, Papa Oyedepo! Wear your Rolex, Papa Adeboye. Wear your Armani suits Pastor Daniel! We cannot judge you as we judge ourselves. You are truly men of God. Our spiritual and earthly masters!

Did Jesus not travel among "common people"?

Did Jesus not preach humility?

"For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted."

And did he not say this:

"Then Jesus said to his disciples, "Truly I tell you, it is hard for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of heaven."

The church values humility, altruism, benevolence, charity, forgiveness.
These are the Christian core values.

"Jesus answered, If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me."

This pope is a disgrace to Christianity. A man of God cannot be humble. He must be mighty as God is mighty.Fly your private jet, Papa Oyedepo! Wear your Rolex, Papa Adeboye.

The difference is those do not belong to the Pope but to the church while for Nigerian pastors the wealth belongs to the Pastor and is usually passed to their children.

Some of the best schools in the UK are run by the Catholic Church and you know what, they are free.


Weah96:
Have you seen where the pope calls HOME? It's a sovereign state. LOL The sale of one of his paintings alone could convince Oyedepo to become his house boy. Or even Creflo Money, abi, Dollar.

Don't compare the pope's annual earnings with these multi millionaires please. That's disrespectful to the hard work put in by the Vatican over the centuries.

Re: Pope US Visit Proves Nigerian Pastors Wrong!!! by Oletty: 9:33am On Oct 04, 2015
Wrong information you have given. The pope flies Alitalia whenever he leaves the Vatican by air. He has to request an airplane from the airline. The plane does not belong to the Catholic Church neither is it reserved for him at all times. When he visits a country, he flies the local airline in a plane that's made available for him and his entourage. When John Paul II was in Nigeria in 1998, I believe he flew the now defunct ADC for internal trips.

birdman:


I beg to disagree. The pope can request that plane anytime he wants. It is reserved for him. In essence, the state itself has bought a jet for the pope.

Now compare that with a pastor preaching a sermon in one city on saturday night, and another sermon in another time zone the next morning. Obviously driving is not feasible. Neither can you carry all your staff for 4-5 hour wait at the airport every weekend, assuming you can even find a flight when you want. Have you ever flown a 12 hour flight before? What evangelist is going to try a world missions trip lasting a 3 months flying every two to three days. Even Reinhard Bonnke, on moving to the US, needed a private jet. God so kind, he found a preacher that gave it to him for free!

Are there carnal christians and pastors that lust after jets because it is a status symbol? Yeah. But there are also carnal christians, like you, who think all there is to a plane is the status symbol. The plane is a tool. Its very effective for Ceos, vps , presidents because they can get from point a to point b quickly. . And it is a very effective tool for moving significant ministry resources from point a to point b at a moments notice

@ op.. Keep hating.. .you will reap hatred in return(not a curse, but law of life). Creflo Dollar asked for money for private Jet and he gave his reasons(not steal). It is left for his congregation to make their decision on that. What the hell is your headache about that? Are you one of the people bankrolling his mission

Politicians are here stealing money.. .You remain helpless. Whereas some of these pastors like Bishop Oyedepo is not on the pay roll of the church. Many who you won't see on the pages of nairaland gives bountifully unto him and they are happy doing it. He has nothing to do with the offering. Most people hating here rarely gives in church or don't attend at all. Whereas we who gives cheerfully don't complain and we are happy doing it.

How would you compare the Pope with other pastors? Have you been to Vatican city and see for yourself.. .you would be surprise at the sight of beauty and magnificence(my due respect to the pope)

Your hatred won't lead you no where. Keep googling pastors around the world.. Many have connected with them for the supernatural prosperity and you are mourning

My advice to you.. ..keep wailing. I don't expect you to grab the spiritual importance of honoring our men of God

You had celebrate when you see Jay Z with private jet but wail when Men of God use the same

Over to you destiny wailers

I really don't know why you're going on to explain all of these to this lot.

1. it's not their money

2. Oyedepo or any of them did not come to ask them for money

3. Non of the pastors borrowed money from them to buy jet.

why not allow them? if they choose to take panadol for another person headache, allow them, abi?

chimaraiyke:
All we have in churches this days are hypocrites pastors, church members and church goers who now worship material things instead of the gospel of love, humility, repentance, forgiveness etc that they are suppose to preach. I don't see any justification in men of God owning Jets and buildings with poor people's offerings and tithes when there are many church members who can't afford three square meal. Churches own schools this days that the ordinary church members can't afford to send their children to. Let's not deceive ourselves or let this pastors deceive US, this is end time and we have churches that are now business ventures and no longer house of God.
