tctrills:

You really don't know the power of the word of God. Many people have found deliverance in the preaching of the word, many have found solution and comfort. But you pastor got angry and denied them of their right to the word of their Father. It can't be defended my brother.
It's a shame.
The pastor doesn't realize that the church is not his. He is only a servant to God and the people.

Na you nor sabi power of God o!
Discipline is part of life and that angle was just the way it is. Person wey dem phones dey ring suppose don switch off, silence or put their phone on vibration.
It's common sense! Something closer happened in Matthew 21:12 when Jesus flogged traders in temple and drove them out. Cos He doesn't want distraction. Hearing ringtones in church creates distraction. Especially during sermon that there's meant to be silence for the msg to enter ya soul.
One of the reasons why you're still in sin and doubting Christendom is cos you nor dey hear sermon wey dey enter ya soul. Try grab you make I do you deliverance dey hungry me. By the time I handle you, you go become usher.

SeraphicWind:
It is not pride. What he did was the best thing to.

You are in the presence of God and your phone is ringing?

Will you allow that to happen in the presence of an ordinary governor?

Would Jesus have done this kind of act? Ask yourself this question

Lanretoye:
so if my phone rings then I’m a culprit,e be like some of una forget brain for inside belle,phone ring na crime?

check the meaning of culprit, then come back let's discuss

Padipadi:

No dey use unparallel scenarios.
Suiciders dey enter church dey listen to preachings against suicide and still dropping in lagoon. Discipline is needed in Christendom and such occasion like Arome own is needed. If you come my church and you don anyhow, you see anyhow!
Inside love, there's discipline. It's to make you a better person and shun bad behaviors. Even in court, phones are on silent mode or switched off so why is church different?
If you justify any werey thing, I go flog you.
Daejumong, advanceDNA you hear?

and the judge will leave the courtroom if phone rings.
You're short of brain

mattb1:

Yes. Jesus said if you go to a city and it's inhabitants are not receptive to your message, you are free to leave .

Me I would not have even recognized the ringing as I hate to acknowledge fools.

TimiRume:
Importance of having elders in a church

Modified: Haven seen his previous videos from years back on this matter of phone ringing, and also the recent one where he walked out, I don't think he is wrong. In short, I agree with him. He has been preaching about the need for discipline in the body of Christ and why we need to show reverence to God's word when we come for it. Eventhough I think the person whose phone rings should be asked to leave instead of the whole congregation paying for one person's carelessness, he said he finds it difficult to ascend in the spirit when there are phone distractions. So even if the person at fault leaves, he won't still be able to impart much on the congregation( though God can be merciful).

My conclusion is that disciplinary measures like this may appear cold and unloving but at the end they would prove effective.

No.

What’s the name of the church by the way? Would he walk out of the church if he was in the bigger churches like the Catholic, Anglican, MFM, RCC, Christ embassy, etc. That was earn him some disciplinary actions.

He was rude, arrogant and wanted to be more Christian than others. There was no reason absolutely to abandon those who came to listen to the word, in the name of “discipline”. If there was at least one soul to be saved, he helped the soul get lost. Infact he was the indisciplined person there!

He lost respect to some members of the church, as his action was very undignifying. Some members would stop coming to his church immediately.

We expect many members to put off their phones when they get into church. Many forget and many assume that they did, only to find out when it rings. Many leave their phones open so that they can record the day’s message and yet forget to put their phones in the silent mode. When such things happen, members are reminded to please put their phones in the silent mode.

The man should swallow his pride, take off his “feel too big attitude” and apologize to his members who were hugely insulted and angered. He lacked discipline there himself.

Jesus listened to all. He told us about humility. He told us the dangers of pride.

The Pastor showed himself a very proud and intolerant man.

Hopefully he can look back and tell himself the truth that he is an arrogant person.

buhariguy:

Judge can send the person out. It's a form of punishment just as the pastor stopped the sermon. He gave his valid reason.
However since you're indiscipline, you're without brain.
Mûmuboy!

blowjohn:


Sir, do u understand that the preacher was already in a certain dimension?

certain dimension?? Sir, all u are doing here is explaining for him and amplifying the situation more than it is just to make the pastor right...... its called asslîcking

blowjohn:

A min passed as he explaining...... And another phone rang out.

again..all u are doing here is trying to paint a picture of how bad the actions of congregation was that it actually is...... It was just two pple and the whole crowd had to be punished for something as flimsy as a ringing phone...but hey!! u have exaggerated it as dimension disruption..

blowjohn:

So now I ask: is it that people there are daft or what?

calling pple daft is just extreme just because of phone....u seem kinda worse than the pastor...at least he just left without calling them daft

blowjohn:

Could they have tried it in a lecture room?

the worse that would have happened is that le tirere would have sent the person out or seized the phone...we all went to the university...and shitts like that happen all the time so u don't have point by comparing this to a lecture room...

blowjohn:

Why allow ur phone ring out loud like that?

because they forgot.....it's that simple......they could have been forgiven or ignored and continue what God sent him there to do

blowjohn:

What if those 2 people ( probably more) are saboteurs?

lol....so now the pple are the saboteurs....not the pastor that abandoned his duty post because he couldn't ignore distraction...

You are just desperately trying to paint wrose case scenario to justify what could have been avoided by a bit of patience ....

Vex stop preaching, come down from pulpit, church end be dat naa... No offering too 🤭🤣🤣🤣

Daejumong:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sOfx1cvdzoQ?si=S9lCJdM2zDXvrKOC

Apostle Arome Osayi stopped preaching and left the pulpit because phones rang in the church ! Is this pride or spiritual discipline? Did Jesus stop preaching despite the noise of the crowd? Would Arome have done same if he was in secular job ? Was he disrespectful to the congregation that came to church to listen to him?

Arome is a guy I respect and as a fellow comrade in the vineyard of Christ, I believe this was excessive and unfair to the congregation who came out to listen to you. I encourage you to take time to self reflect and publicly apologise to your church members ! This is very important because many younger pastors and Christians look up to you and see u as a father!


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UyKJXVI2hAk?si=9b1d0dxugoGA0-zr

I hate nonsense. Why him no vex waka during Offering & Tithe

Baronthecelebri:
I support what he did, because some people are very stupid.

Will Jesus have done this kind of act because a phone rang?

LordIsaac:

No where in the world would any Pastor stop preaching to his congregation because one person's phone rings. That action shows he has no respect for others. I wouldn't call black white because people like him.

Did you watched the video?

He said it was a minister conference

He said during the meeting it rang 56 times

56times?

Discipline.

For me, I would have just taken a 5mins break for everyone to put off their phones then return....considering that what he heard could have been a switching off tune.

philexcel:

The least he could do is to politely ask him to switch off the phone or excuse himself....

Hm

gammarays:
According to the topic title, Phones rang not just a phone.

That shows lack of discipline from the members. Phones should remain silent in spiritual meetings.

While I won't support walking out, he might have done it because of the distractions caused by the phones. And who knows the ring tones from those phones. Might be a Naira Marley kpangolo sound

Next can those people allow their phones ring in a professional meeting? Even those who visit shrines are disciplined.

don't mind this fools saying its pride.

It's just to reference God with fear and respect. Not the man of God. This same people will adhere to work meetings with switching off that phones.

E come reach God turn with no alter of fear of God.

He didn't work away out of pride. But he walked away because it was extremely annoying.

advanceDNA:


So who now finished the sermon when he left....??

Doesn't matter, so far tithe and offerings sessions are completed

chigoziri2403:
check the meaning of culprit, then come back let's discuss

All I know is that that choice of word is not appropriate in this contest

He doesn't have any reason to walk out. It shows he is not Nature de enough to handle situations. Human beings Will always be human beings, nobody is perfect.

He needs to apologize to his congregatio while Still reminding them of the need to reduce distraction.

Las las, it is this same congregation that will contribute the tithe and offering he will use to enjoy himself and pay his chuldren's school fees and other bills.

udemzyudex:


What's the meaning of when did you start caring for the church?
Oga if you have nothing reasonable to post just stfu.
Do you know my background?
You think I don't have the right to talk about things that concern the church, who are you btw?

What the so called man of God did was rubbish,simple.

My apologies 🙏🙏🙏

God help us

buhariguy:
is the same video, you only added another video.
For this very discuss, he was still talking when the phone rang and he walked away

And it was after the 2 nd time the phone rang out

ANTAX99:


You don't know him that's why you'll say this. If you do, you wouldn't have.

Before he became popular Can he act like this?

Na simple question i ask before you con come here insult ur papa

Stupid pride.

It's definitely pride of the highest order, sanctimonious behaviour.....that phone could be from anyone who is new in the church or forgot to switch off or silent.
As leaders you shouldnt get tired of correcting your followers.

Apostle Paul was preaching, Eutychus fell and died, he went to raise him up and still continued his message.

Pls where in the scriptures are you folks getting this ascension in spirit because I can't see it in my bible.

There's another video telling us that phones rang almost 50 something times and he gave them warnings that next ringing he will leave, while speaking it rang if na you what will you do ? For God's sake we need to respect the presence of God, if na native Dr U no go respect am? We too dey play inside church, we all know ringing tunes distract a lot in classrooms,meetings and other places , and we don't take it likely. How much more in the presence of God. Discipline is at play here not arrogance.

PlasmaTV:
Would your phone ring in the presence of the president/governor?

Would it ring in the presence f Biden or Trump?

How about this?

Would he have walked out if a governor or Trump was a member of the congregation when the phone rang.

A clear case of indiscipline. Nigerian pastors can be weird aswaer

What would stop my phone from ringing in the presence of Joe Biden? The guy didn't pick the phone. What are you saying?

In whose presence did the phone ring when the apostle was talking?

Tallesty1:
Doctors are in that church, nurses and security operatives too, people that their phone must not be off.


The man should stop acting like deputy Jesus abeg, last I checked, he is the one that said God called him.

Nobody can prove that.

Exactly! As a doctor that receives emergencies at anytime, I don't know if it's proper that I switch my phones off or I should rather not go to church to avoid not attending to emergencies if they come

SeraphicWind:
It is not pride. What he did was the best thing to.

You are in the presence of God and your phone is ringing?

Will you allow that to happen in the presence of an ordinary governor?

And what would happen if your phone rings in the presence of a governor? Get arrested??
