Who is he who judges another man's servant; to his master he stands or falls. We all should be careful with the way these allegations are going. I smell a rat here. Why haven't they instituted a case against the Pastor? Why media fight? Why planned protest? Someone is being paid to try to quench a burning and a shining light here. But remember, we're praying. The church is praying. I will build my church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it... |

Men pulled Moses down before a woman pulled Samson down. Men denied Moses the promised land he spent 40 years working for. No woman pull Joseph down. Joseph resisted the woman but he could not resist 8 brothers who sold him to slavery and almost killed him. And before Potiphar's wife came to the scene, Joseph had endured torture from his brothers.

Rape dont just start because of your believe that the world is coming to an end. There has been unacknowledged rape cases even before Bible was written and BC. The biggest lies of all times is that 1.Jesus Christ died for the sins of all and we only got to know during colonial era. Think! 2.The flood that took place in Noah's village covers the entire Earth. 2 Women were cursed by God to labour in pains during delivery. Yet you claimed God is merciful while the pain still exist. Meanwhile all animals passses through pains during childbirth even birds when laying their eggs. 3. We were all living together speaking one language. Scam! author=EternalBeing post=79795825]Victoria Nkong, Bisola Dakolo, Ese Walter, etc. You all know what these ladies have in common. The stories are out and many more like it are still pouring out. Do you believe them? Are they probably liars? From my observation of people's responses, most believe the scandalous stories, and some critical thinkers think they might be liars. If we go by "majority carries the vote", and the fact that I personally know a twin girls that cried so bitterly while telling me how they were deceived and deflowered by a Pastor, then we can conclude that there is an iota of truth in these stories. But what I want to ask you is that, have you learned the most important lesson from them? Are you just reading these shocking evil news for entertainment or are you being seriously jolted and awoken by them to the very reality of the Time we live in? THE MOST IMPORTANT LESSON FROM THESE The disciples asked Jesus the very sign that would make the World know that the end time is no more near, they asked the very signs that people need to watchout for to realize that Jesus was very much about to return and he replied as follows: "When you see standing in the holy place 'the abomination that causes desolation, ' spoken of through the prophet Daniel--let the reader understand--" Matthew 24:16 " "When you see 'the abomination that causes desolation' standing where it does not belong--let the reader understand--" Mark 13:14 Why is the World so shocked by these evil disgusting ulterly nauseating faith-destroying news? 2 Timothy 19b. Because we all rightly expected and believed those that nameth the Name of the LORD to have depated from iniquity long ago before they came out to say they are ready to lead us back to GOD ALMIGHTY. The most important lesson from all these wickedness emanating right from where everybody expects to be the holiest place in the World and from a set of people supposed to be holiest people in the World shows that the end is no more near, the End is Here! Are you rapture ready, are guarding your salvation with all alacrity, are working out your own "salvation with trembling and fear"? Please, be more vigilant, holy and Heaven-focused than ever before. Don't let the love and chase of material things becloud you from making the very imminent Rapture. If you realize the number of people that almost accepted Jesus but changed their minds when they heard news of what these evil Pastors are doing, plus the massive number of Souls that have become Satanists and unbelievers because of these heartless Pastors... Heaven and all the Angels are seriously weeping (as opposed to Luke 15:10) because of the lost Souls and Heaven would not continue to watch for more eternal Souls to be lost. It's an abomination that is fasting rendering the Church of God desolate because many have left and many are still trooping out of the body of Christ because of these shocking stench emanating from men of God. Pastors, like cultists that serves Satan, now rape members' wives and innocent children, reverend father's rape boys (Leviticus 18:22 says, “Men shall not lie with a male as one lies with a female; it is an abomination. ”), Pastors kill and use fellow humans for rituals, etc. Worst still, is the fact that these things are now happening at skyrocketing unprecedented alarming rate and they have become so audacious, unrepentant and mostly glaring doing evil with impunity. It is an utmost abomination to see persons expected to Holiness exemplified not just manifesting disgusting satanic wickedness and blatantly proving that they are morally bankrupt, but perpetually live and wallow in iniquities. Are you still among those tauting and saying Jesus would not come? Matthew 24:37-39 "37 But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, 39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be." Revelations 3:10 "Since you have kept my command to endure patiently, I will also keep you from the hour of trial that is going to come on the whole world to test the inhabitants of the Earth." Technologies sees and extracts specific minerals located far deep inside the Earth, Google Earth already sees you everywhere you go. So, where would you hide in order not to receive the mark of the Beast? It is not a joke, it shall happen to those that miss the Rapture. 1 Corinthians 15: 52 “In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound" Are you prepared to hear it, are you focused on being holy, are you Rapture ready? Satan has ensured that far less of this but more of prosperity is being preached in Churches today. Please, work out your Salvation by personal relationship with Jesus. Please, don't be left behind, the now so imminent Rapture of HIS saints from this decaying World is about to happen. Give your life to Jesus now and follow him, tomorrow may be too late.[/quote] |

ifyalways:This is the most stupid advice. So, if one or two eggs are bad in a crate of eggs, you'll advice all eggs be thrown away? And just imagine the audacity with which you typed this rubbish and the 'likes' Nairaland kids are giving you. "Don't get any close to any religious leader. No familiarity, no problem sharing, or counseling" only a kid would say that 'cause you don't know the number of lives pastors have impacted just by being familiar with the person either through counseling or otherwise.

The most important lesson for the religious leaders is set boundaries. People like Pastor Adeboye dont counsel females without an observer in the room but some of us over stretch our capacity n I call it naivety. You are gonna visit a widow alone under the concept of evangelism. Even Jesus said go in twos. My first gynecologist will never examine me without a nurse in the room. Be practical, realize you are first of all flesh and blood n have hormones. Be honest, realise when you're sexually attracted to someone you shouldn't be and avoid settings that will expose you to acting inappropriately. Above all, remember why You were called and dont bring shame to the same name, you're meant to protect. 7 Likes 1 Share |

successjohnny: I want to talk about your quote, in bold alphabets: the "I" refers to God, it does not have to be you, Biodun Fatoyinbo or any other fake man on "god" out there. The church of God is an organized and orderly place, if you are a pastor, you should have been schooled and prepared by God and mentors. If you fall to such heinous sin with a consistent pattern then your fiduciary responsibility to the members of the church is compromised and you should toe the line of honor to resign, retire or excuse yourself from pastoring the church. The church belongs to God not you and God is up to his leadership task without you in place. Besides, do you also know that the devil devices counterfeit burning and shinning light too. 3 Likes |

Until one uses you for ritual. Then you would wish you had listened to warnings about been careful. The point of all the allegations, protests and the rest is not to bring the church down or the body of Christ but instead to create awareness that the heart of man is wicked. We can only trust in God. If people are looking for mentors they should read their bible. There are many examples of people who set great examples. Rape is a crime , whether it was committed 10 or 20 years ago. The aim of exposure is so people can just be aware even if they won't stand in court at least they have put a mental alarm for girls and women out there not to trust their pastors too much.

Op God bless you for this thread and the Biblical analysis. I was ruminating over all these shameful things.What came to my mind is God is not surprised. True Christians should not be surprised either.It does not affect my faith in Jesus.Look at how the world take the matter including some sinners who use church to cover up.They are happy with the development because they feel they now have to continue in sin and follow Satan.A true Christian will be heartbroken but not surprised. Whatever any pastor does will not bail you out of God's judgement. It's a personal race.No pastor died for you but Jesus.Mind you not all who claim to be pastors are true one.At the risk of being judgmental, the man Fatoyinbo is not born again in the first place.You can't have the Holy Spirit in you and you will.be comfortable with sin.In fact you will be the one to expose it before anyone does.A mistake is a mistake if it happens once or twice but if it becomes frequent, it has become a lifestyle.I John 3:8-9.He that commiteth (practises) sin is of the devil... 4 Likes 1 Share |

There is nothing end time about these rape cases cos it has always been so. It is common knowledge that a good no of popes and bishops of the middle ages had mistresses or slept with little boys. The pastors sleeping with women in their churches scandals are plenty in the USA. Lots of these churches were even cult like and for some of the victims, their parents were in it too! The main message here is simply set boundaries as a teenager or an adult and as a parent be very vigilant when it comes to your kids and teach them to confide in you whenever anything happens. Fast and pray for yourself. David still prayed for his self even after commiting grave sins. Hezekiah prayed on his own and God extended his life. Esther fasted and prayed for 3 days and nights and she did the unthinkable without getting killed or even dethroned. Many more examples like these shows you don't need anyone to pray for you before your case can be solved. 1 Like |

You Have Said It All Bro. May God Give U More Wisdom. Amen The Bible Is Fulfilling [quote author=MobilityExpress post=79799599]The problem is many of these pastors surround themselves with too many women and expose themselves to too many temptations, and later succumb then turn to sexual predators. There was a time I was a protocol officer at a church and it gave me a short preview of a pastor's life outside the pulpit. They are female magnets and they enjoy the attention and trips of always being surrounded by all kinds of beautiful women and they also encourage such women to flock around them. From the church to their homes, it's always one girl or another doing something for the pastor or running errands or needing something from the pastor, especially COUNSELLING. He is their all in all, and all in one go to person. They revere him, worship, turn him to the bestie they can tell anything and the person whose advice they need before they can do anything with their lives, you know he has the remote control a 1 Like |
