This is a vicious circle. They get the money, buy more guns, kidnap more people and the ransom demand continues.

BOOKWORMLUX:
The people of old prayed , and Peter got his freedom miraculously. What's happening in this our generation? Is it same God?

Fairytale

Hahahahahahaha, I swear most people who commented here will not make heaven.

This is very sad, insecurity has gone out of hand

OLULAW:


Christ didn't ride in 4x4. He infact rode on a donkey instead of a horse. The Wesley brothers preached across England not on the choicest automobile of their time. Neither of them had titles. If John and Charles resurrected today, they won't recognise The Nigerian Methodist Church socially, ecclesiastically and liturgically. Some of these bishops live extravagant lifestyles, drive expensive 4x4s, arrogate unwarranted titles to themselves. etc.
I'm certainly justifying the kidnap.

so you mean we should kill our ministers? Don't be bitter

Dis is just a minor issue just one night prayer will see him released. For those that believe all things are possible

he has been released. glory be to God

HardMirror:
They should go and ask jesus to save the kidnapped clergy. What are the Angel's work if they cannot do this simple thing

Heard your mentor has been released, what do you have to say "praise the Lord"?

Hmmm

There was an omission in my response which had subsequently been corrected. It should read, "I'm not justifying the kidnap."

Grace, Peace and Love of God be with you and all that is yours Amen.

The devastating news of the Abduction of our Prelate, the Bishop of Owerri and Prelate's Chaplain has left everybody in shock.

This is a period of trial in which the Church must cry out that 'The Lord that answereth by Fire' must be our God to destroy all the manipulations of the Adversary. Let us all arise and cry out to the Lord!

As we engage in Prayer Warfare, this serves to notify you that the Abductors have demanded a ransom of N100m.

In view of the urgency and the dire need to arrest the situation for the safety of our Prelate and other abductees, it has become imperative to seek your URGENT RESPONSE to raise the N100m ransom.

The Account particulars are:
*Name: Methodist Church Nigeria*
*Account Number: 2000041229*
*Bank: First Bank*

The safety of the Prelate and other abductees must be of paramount concern to all, and your contributions spiritually and monetarily shall not go unrewarded.

Yours in Present Anguish,

*The Rt. Revd. (Dr.) Michael O. Akinwale*
Secretary of Conference
