luke 23:34 ''father forgive then for they know not what they do''

Whats all the fuss about? Pastor Adeboye requires security, request for it and or provided for him. So many posters are obsessed with Pastor Adeboye on this Nairaland sef you all need to get a life.

I expect the christians and other followers of Pastor Adeboye, to explain why Adeboye doesnt not depend on god for protection and instead depends on the protection of the GUN to end this arguments here rather than defending his use of the gun.
For your information, I once witness a crusade around 2002 or so in Unilag where Adeboye was present and the level of security was very heavy, so before the birth of Niger Delta militant and Boko Haram, he has been using heavy security to move around instead of using the protection of the god he so believes can do miracle.

ok

This is rubbish, ok there is no proof the guy is actually protecting Pastor Adeboye! Case Closed,

That gun is the TAVOR Assault Rifle-21st century (TAR-21), an Israeli-made weapon used by the Israeli Defense Forces and the official issue rifle for the State Security Services in Nigeria. In these times of the madness of the Bokites, Rev Adeboye has every right to appeal to the President (whom he knows one on one) to provide him with state security to deal with any Boko haram bastards that try to mess around.

^^^^^^
See your mouth why not give all Nigerians then so that we can defend ourselves. Silly Nigerians.

emmatok:

That person in the pix is a SSS personnel.

I have seen that rifle with most SSS personnel.

The police and Army don't use that weapon.

Either as escort or guard.

The first time I will see that rifle is with sss. So the guy is probably sss.

But wait! How come nairalanders know guns by name simply at sight than our police men?

I believe the civilian variants are being made right now in Canada. You fit go there buy one. make dem catch you for illegal possession for naija, you go know how far.

Jesus will be disappointed that a man is afarid of d harm of d flesh.Afraid of sacrifice as a result of d trappings of riches

Jesus Christ's disciples were armed. Did you not read where he asked them to gird up their sheaths for the battle ahead (figuratively) and they showed him two swords (literally)?

And again when he was being arrested in Gethsemane, Peter took off someone's ear with it? The problem is that over the years, people have come to associate Christianity as a religion for weaklings, which is why anytime there is a religious riot, you see churches being burnt en masse.

Well, enough of such nonsense. Any man of God is free to carry as many gun-wielding guards as possible. At least we will not see Rev Adeboye being killed like Bishop Iloputaife. Anyone of the bokites who tries anything funny will know what he is up against when they see those wicked looking weapons on display.

That is the spirit and I love it. Anyone who doesn't like it can go bury his head up his a.rse!

And what did jesus tell them about arms?U ARE NOT UP AGAINST FLESH AND BLOOD BUT PRICIPALITIES,MIND U

Dem no born the boko haram wey wan stand in front of this gun. . .

And pricipalities are nothing short of stack ignorance,deceit,greed,corruption,arrogance and all d fundamental ills of life

I believe this thread deserves one of my fav songs.

I ve heard Pastor Adeboye saying many times while preaching that he doesnt need anybody protecting him that God is his guide.

Lets just consider 2 what if's. 1. What if he were to run into armed mob with his escorts with him? Would they open fire and eventually kill in the name of defense? 2. What if the bokos catch and kill him because he has no armed escort? Wont millions of redeemer will be bitter about his carelessness? Lets just consider 2 what if's. 1.

if not for the suit the arm carreir is wearing. He looks like a hungary rascal,


why should a pastor be armed in any form! i though they preach heaven is the best place, they shouldnt be scared of death! just like me

but where is the god's divine protection

christians why so much confusion?
what about all the pretense of being peaceful and turning the other cheek?

is your "mighty" pastor scared of militants? if he is scared of them who will protect the sheep that flock to him for protection?

where is the holy ghost fire? why need a machine gun? cant the holy ghost fire,fire them?!

i mean God's divine protection

Where are all these people against use of firearms getting their rhema from?

Abraham had 318 armed servants born in his house.

David, the man after God's heart (God gave that description Himself) had the deadliest army at the time.

Even Christ's disciples were armed.

Can we go on and on?

All these people preaching otherwise, the day robbers will show up at your doorstep is the day you will know the use of firearms.

Even my pastor said it, there are some demons that money can bind. If your gen is bad, stop praying. Take money and replace or repair it. Likewise, I say if the Bokites are around, by all means Bishop Adeboye should employ more SSS guys to protect NOT JUST HIMSELF, but to serve as a deterrent to mischief makers all around.

The day 3 robbers went to a church in PH some years back and attempted to snatch a woman's car in the church premises, it was not time for prayer o. Some brave guys rushed the robbers, disarmed them and killed them there in the church.

Our problem in Nigeria is that we depend too much on prayer and cannot do for ourselves what we need to do.

Oh, lest I forget, people make una read the book of Revelation. Even the very throneroom of God IS GUARDED BY CHERUBS. Abi e no dey for una bible?

Praise the Lord & pass the ammunition. After all the Holy book don talk am;'Heaven help those who help themselves'. You trust in God but yet you lock your doors to keep your neighbours honest so in this case even though I am one of Adeboye's strongest critics based on the way he has/is fleecing his congregation I think agree with the security thingy.

is this not the same adeboye who drove a car on prayer?

so why does he need armed protection ?

is he not anointed?

is he afraid to meet his maker who he loves so much?

As F A R as am concern, he can protect himself with whatever means, afterall Holy spirit doesn't protect against odeshi

Nigerians are funny sha. Many of these loudmouths are losing sleep and crying foul over Islamic banking and perceived violence and Islamic takeover, but they are here defending the same potential acts of violence by a religious leader just because he belongs to their faith.


What if it was some Islamic cleric and his body guards with similar weapons instead of Adeboye?

hahahahaha. . The Man knows by instinct he is not Safe. He knows what Nigerians are capable of. Forget holy ghost! Nobody want die. . . . . But want go heaven.
