I'm not discussing laws of the land neither was it why you retorted with the question.

Stop over flogging the issue. I've lost family members (husband and wife) in plane crash here in Nigeria, full families are dieing everyday in road crashes or home disasters, does their church members get roasted like una wan roast this family untop Wigwe matter?

If the pope dies, will all catholic mass, weddings, church festivals be cancelled for that week?

What this man's wife does in her secular time outside the premises of the church is none of the church's business neither does it concern the Wigwe family most especially, it doesn't concern all of you internet in-laws and holy holy judges

@bold Lmao . So if the president’s wife strips at her secular time outside of presidency , it is not the concern of the country ? Or if the pastor’s wife’s business is escort services , it is not the concern of the church her husband pastors ? Truly whatever rocks your boat

Iluyomade isn’t a Pentecostal Christian, he’s a charismatic guy.

RCCG has two strains of parishes: the ones with core Pentecostal believe and those with charismatic believe.

Parishes like city of David are charismatic with no iota of Pentecostal values/belief.

We are getting it wrong by mixing Pentecostal and charismatic churches together. Winners, Christ Embassy, House on the Rock, Covenant Nations etc are Charismatic denominations while Deeper Life, MFM, Assemblies of God, GOFAMINT etc are Pentecostal denominations.

In the pastor's mind the Wigwes didn't have enough anointing, or they were not just having enough grace like him and his beautiful 60yr old wife, otherwise they shouldn't have perished like that. That's why they had no empathy to feel for the Wigwes. The moment you meet anyone that thinks they have a special sort of grace on their head, remind the dullard that they will never have half the grace of Myles Munroe and yet he perished like the Wigwes. The worst foooolishness is self delusion

Other members of his parish died within the same period.

Is wigwes death different or special because of his wealth or by another metric?

I do not understand why everyone thinks life should be paused for others because of the death of one man (may his soul rest in peace).

He is but a man.

I find this stunt by RCCG very lame.

Other church members have died and nothing special was done to honour them


Do those church members not deserve empathy too?

Christianity and her Pastors are very funny.

God calls a Pastor in a ministry and the Pastor is attached to a church. Pastor faces disciplinary actions and then resigns God's calling. How are we certain God called these Pastors before?


Let me tell you, The advent of many churches today is as a result of inability of the followers to submit to the authority of the church. I must not talk so that I will not scatter things.

Someone was trying to justify that preparation for the party has long been in motion before the Wigwe's demise and lots if money was already spent.
But why invite flavor? As a senior pastor why flavor? Wetin do Dunsin, frank, tope alabi Or even Sunny Ade?
It was just a show of gross insensitivity

Insensitivity because he invited flavour or insensitivity because he didn't wait one year after wigwes death?

Which is it?

People like you always get to taste the rubbish you are spewing here. You are trying to be logical but sounding foolish. Hosting a lavish party just after the tragic demise of a very supporting young family in your assembly is wickedness and evil.

When you wear the soul-wrenching shoes of the Wigwe family, you won't sound this childish anymore. Get sense! angry

He's not the first pastor of City of David and COD has been there long before he was made the senior pastor
Their former pastor passed away- Pastor Eskor or something.
Although, I personally don't see the crime committed by going ahead with their party.
Maybe insensitive if the families were really close, but I'm not privy to that information
But it is what it is
I'm sure many other less prominent members have passed over the years and planned activities were not postponed or stopped...

Do you know what it means for three members of one family to die horrifically in a church? Unless you have lost your humanity, church programmes for that period would be canceled or postponed. We are not even talking about church programmes but a private birthday celebration done so loudly and lavishly to the distaste of the grieving family.

I used to fancy the said pastor because of the way he ran interactive services. After this event however, I lost all respect for him. What they did was disgusting! If it was in the developed world, that parish would have been totally boycotted.

Their action goes to show how little value we place on human lives in this part of the world.

All I see here is you judging another person. How is Flavour worst that Frank and the rest? Is he so bad a sinner that he shouldn't be considered among other sinners? Everybody is a sinner so you have no right to judge anyone.

All these ones aren't pastors... Better repent, make restitution and go back to the calling God has given you...

You can't resign from God's work... He will required it from you on the last day, and you'd give account....

No wonder st Paul wrote, "Let him that thinketh he stand, Watch, lest he falls"!
He never said he is resigning from God's work.... God's work cannot only be done in one Church... By the way I don't support the party he threw after the death of one of their members... But the question now is... If the member that died was an average or poor man in terms of finances.... Will the church have sanctioned him for throwing a party after the death of their member?

I think this is the crux of the matter. I doubt RCCG will make a move to remove him if powerful members of the church didn't request it. Adeboye only approved it.
The decision to have him removed must have come from within the church itself.
If above is the case, then Pastor ID goofed. As a pastor of such powerful church, U have to be highly sensitive to the feelings of your members. U should also avoid decisions that polarize the church because the outcome is always controversial.

I pray the church pull through this challenge because major actions like this could split that church or even tear it down.

That birthday party made them loose the support of very powerful members of his church.

Unfortunately, at their level in life, their patrons' support is as equally important as their handiwork.

And this applies to all areas of life.

Not everything is Bible. Use your brain to think.

Please don’t be rude, and also talk within context. Everything is in the Bible. The Bible says the body is God’s temple and it should be taken care of. If you are putting poison into your body, you definitely are not taking care of it.

Now later if this man starts saying nonsense about the church people will be saying it's true.

Lots of Nigerians christains are not Christlike pastors included.

If you cannot take discipline, you really are not a christain.

Ordinary posting - resignation lool.

If it were some other churches Gan just for his wife inviting flavor to her birthday. Both of them will be suspended and sit at the back of the church for long and he will do it in good fate because it's discipline.

G. Os are trying honestly. When churches begin to grow with many branches different fruits begin to yield, the wolves will join the sheep and the greedy nature of Nigerians begin to show. How many places G. O want to be.

Both parties hands are not clean in this case.

It is just that the pastor & wife has lost the support of their major patrons hence the exposure.

LESSON
Whatever you will give or do in the house of God that will make you feel you can not be disciplined when you err, pls keep it or dont do it. God always provides for His own course.

His suspension proved to me that RCCG is still a living church. His resignation just proved the people right on the fact that the lavish birthday is a of sign of lack of empathy. It shows this man is not meek.

A genuine pastor should be in subjection to authority. I sincerely believe he was suspended for not showing remorse when he was being questioned on the birthday nature and timing.

Again, I now believe RCCG has not lost it when it comes to church leadership discipline, a key component of running godly ministries.

Well, in see it differently.

This is an example of what women can cause. Just like eve caused Adam to eat the forbidden fruit.

Iluyomade's wife desire to celebrate her birthday in a mega way has caused the husband all this drama.

All the best to him.

I asked the same question initially until I spoke to a deacon friend from the parish, try find out what Wigwes sacrificed for the church, you will be speechless. Yes, every soul should be mourned irrespective of what they gave, but those that willingly gave should be noted

Real Christians don't see physical death as "perishing". To perish is to die and go to eternal damnation.

So, a person who died in a plane crash while spending his life serving the Lord hasn't "perished", as far as we know (the Lord sees the heart), but has gone home to his/her reward.

I will like to point out that Dr. Myles had said that he would like to die with his wife.......funny, but that's exactly what happened.

What do you think about that?

My brother don't deceive yourself pls, it is a pure tragedy to die with your wife and child, why do people pray against evil? What is evil? Is it not tragedy's like this? Munroe and wife and others including a young pastor and his wife and their son all died, what are you talking about? I realized most Christians don't know the God they serve. Try read some other accounts of history besides your Bible or spiritual books so you can learn. Read about the accounts of Christians that ran to hide in churches during the Rwanda genocide of 1994, I read those accounts as a young lad in the 90's and I realized a lot. Many people especially Nigerians are deluded, if it seems anything is working for you, thank your ancestors, thank God and keep your mouth shut
