Came across a link that listed names of "supposed" pastors that are illuminati members and to my surprise i found almost all renowned men of God, then i begin to wonder, is it possible God will not have his own men in dis world? you come back to Nigeria , u also find ppl makn unruly remarks abt the men of God here... one question i have for these ppl is, where r the real pastors then? cos it seems the way they r goin, they'll list every pastor as satans agents, and i wonder, can God b without a witness?
Frnd, disregard wt u hear or read abt ur pastor, the only thing u need to do is discern is if the words he's feedn u with, imparts life into u.. if they do, my frnd hold fast to ur faith and dnt let the internet and newspapers be ur measures of servn God!

Odenigbo Aroli: He humiliated that young woman before a mammoth crowd; who does he think he is ? I think when people gets too rich and influencial they starts thinking themselves a god? I want him prosecuted to the full extent of the law!
there was an alter call for witches and a "witch for jesus" came out. What else did she want if not trouble? Did anyone drag her out?
...Please, who else was there when this slap took place? Hope it was a very hot one.

There must be a different set of laws for the clergy in Nigeria. If this is not the case, then somewhere in the country’s law book, I believe, it is written in small prints: “Religious leaders are exempted from these laws.” That the founder of Living Faith Ministry aka Winners Chapel, David Oyedepo, has not been invited for questioning by the police after a video shows him slapping a young woman across the face during a “deliverance session” purportedly to exorcise her of witchcraft is a confirmation that these obscenely wealthy preachers that are littered all over a country where about 80 per cent of their congregation wallow in near abject poverty, are above the law. Isn’t it bad enough that Bishop Oyedepo, a multi-millionaire, is exempted from paying taxes? Now, he must assault a woman, make a show of it and subsequently brags about it. In case most Nigerians, inured after seeing all kind of abuses go unpunished, are wondering what’s the big deal in an “almighty preacher” slapping a “witch”. Well, for me it’s a huge deal. Let me explain. The implications are as dire as they are far- reaching. First, an assault is a crime and this, in no way, should be overlooked because it is done only once with thousands of people cheering along. I must confess. With millions of followers spread over the world; the owner of, until recently, the world’s largest church auditorium; the owner of two private universities; the owner of at least two private jets; just to mention but a few of his earthly possessions, Bishop Oyedepo is no ordinary person and thus this show of sheer irresponsibility should be treated with a seriousness proportionate with his persona. The assault in question occurred during Winners Chapel yearly headline event named Shiloh. This programme is stupendously popular with hundred of thousands of people heading to the church’s spiritual mecca in Ota near Lagos and some million others viewing it live via satellite from around the world. If the millionaire preacher is not called to book on this, it will further splash muck on the already blackened image of Nigeria. At a time when we are still trying to rid ourselves the despicable treatment of so called “child witches” in the hands of the likes of Evangelist Helen Ukpabio the least we expect is for another preacher to slap us back into that infamy (all pun intended). Another implication of this shameful behavior is its multiplier effect. In Nigeria many pastors are desperately seeking to break into the Ivy-league of millionaire preachers. They are the ones who will sheepishly replicate anything any mega preacher does without stopping for a while to put their brains to use. They talk like their idols, dress like them and will perm their hair if their god figures do. These monkey-see-monkey-do fanatics will continue this unashamed irresponsibility of their superior in their local parishes. “If Papa Oyedepo did it, then it must be right”. They wouldn’t stop at just slapping. They would kick, punch, flog, abduct and even sexually abuse their subjects in the name of spiritual exorcism. History has shown that adherents of religious groups have displayed far deadlier fanaticism than the originators of such movements. And poor Nigerians too scared of eternal damnation that they have been told will be their lots if they challenge their preachers will cow into their homes and do nothing but sulk. Many of these excesses end up unreported and even when they are, the police do nothing about them and the victims end up being ostracized in their neighbourhoods for having the guts to demand justice. Again, if this is done in the public with such glee, God, save us from what these men do in your name when we are not looking. For me, the reaction of the congregation was even more offensive than the assault on the young woman. Isn’t it worrisome that many of those in the auditorium will readily lynch a homosexual if they knew one but here they are seen cheering the abusive behavior by their spiritual Godfather? Nigerians are interesting people. You will be amazed at how intellectual we can be in almost any discourse outside religion. Try to get many Nigerians to be logical on issue about their pastors, priests or imams and you will be shocked how they will immediately denigrate into the worst form of stupidity. They will drool such incredibly childish excuses in defence of their religious leaders you would think you are back in kindergarten all over again. For the benefit of doubt, let’s assume that Bishop Oyedepo really wanted to exorcise the young lady of witchcraft, whatever happens to the laying of hands and the power of the Word? I can’t remember a place in the Bible that reads: “And Jesus slapped the demons out of her”. A second look at the video will show that the violence inflicted on the young lady has absolutely nothing to do with exorcism. The point in issue is that the bishop “gentleman”, so used to people cowing and scampering to his orders, felt insulted when the brave girl insisted that she wasn’t a witch. All I see here is a man with a slighted ego. This is made even clearer when he asked the young girl if she knew who he was? If you loathe Rev. King of the Christian Praying Assembly, who awaits the hangman for dousing seven girls (who double as his sex slaves) from his congregation with petrol and throwing a lit match at them killing one of them in 2006 for indulging in “sexual immorality”, then you should denounce Bishop Oyedepo for assaulting the young girl. Don’t be alarmed. You will agree with me that Rev. King didn’t wake up one morning, tired of his orgy with the girls, and decided to set them ablaze. No. There is always a history. It may have started with a slap or a punch that went unreported because the girls were probably scared of being condemned to Hades if they brought charges against him. Convinced he is a demigod, Rev. King grew into a monster that killed a woman and maimed six others. Impunity fosters lawlessness. No matter how big one is, no one should be above the law. Bishop Oyedepo should be made to face the full course of the law.

@ sparkles
Nobody deserves to be slapped like that in front of thousands of people
The bishop should have delivered her, and welcomed her into christ's flock,
Not humiliate her.
Jesus met the man possessed by the legion (for they are many) christ didn't bust heaven-chi on the
Fellow instead he cast the demons out.
The Bishop is a man not a god, he is prone to human error.

I have come to acknowlegde that most nigerians are educated but lack wisdom. Kenyans were in the same cuagmayer a decade ago. TB joshua lacks the moral grounds to perpetuate a godly act, when he slapped and ended acknowlegding without a tinge of shame that he would repeat the same mundane act. Kenyan preachers were forced to be indicted into a tribunal that regulates there activites which ensures that believers are not ripped by fake churches. Currently kenyas top televangelists are either serving time for different crimes commited under the holy cloth.

may be you should read the stories well.... It aint about TB Joshua, and that Nigga slapped no one...it is about Oyedepo. And yeah, I would a TB joshua that at least shows compassion for the needy with his various welfare program than an Oledepo that that is busy building empires from the contribution of poor folks and rich folks in his church..... Unlike Kenya where at least some right thinking people have made laws to curtail the excesses of the conmen, Nigerians get so emotional and irrational when it comes to religion both muslims and christians alike, they will label you as evil and of the devil. It is pathetic and annoying, they see their bible wielding conmen as some super natural being that is above reproach.
