shinystar: Facilitate what? We complain of mismanagement by our govt yet our religious leaders that criticize the govt are champions in mismanagement. Tell me how a jet will facilitate activities in his ministry? I pity Nigerians, they get screwed by their govt during the weekdays and on sunday their pastor will screw them again without condoms. |

My own question why does God allow all these people drag his name in the mud? private jets when the congregation has a lot of people praying for the next meal? quite insensitive. 1 Like |

Church leaders accept tithes in the name of God. They'll say “God needs your help for a private jet” .What does god need with a multi-million dollar Private Jet? Nothing. These are the same so-called church leaders that you'll find riding in fancy cars, eating the best foods, living in expensive homes and living the life of wealthy people while their followers scrape and struggle to do “God's will” by tithing. These so-called leaders will lead congregations in the worse of the worse neighborhoods and on their way to church to preach on Sundays or Saturdays or whatever day they declare to be the Sabbath, They will step over the homeless or the less fortunate. |

friends why are we getting mad at all this. . . , Jesus told us that in the last days. . . .many will come in his name and deceive many. . . . .signs of the endtime my friends they assume that godliness is gain. . . .lets keep watching and seeing, i am even expecting more and also i was told of the lastest fratenity in nigeria now called "THE BILLIONAIRE PASTORS" just for the special MOG's only hmmmmmmm what else can i say |
Re: Bishop Mike Okonkwo Acquires Private Jet by plappville(f): 4:16pm On Nov 22, 2008 |
If these kind of things don't take place how will the prophesy of Jesus Christ come to pass?? 2 Peter 2:1-3: False Bible teachers would be money hungry. They would be smooth talkers, have many followers, and slur the Christian faith "Like wetin dey happen these days with some pastors." Cant they spread the wealth to those motherless home or build free educational centers. Homosexuality would be increasingly evident at the end of the age (2 Timothy 3:3) the rate of homosexuality today is a prove. Deadly diseases would be prevalent (Matthew 24:7). ) The worldwide increase in AIDS deaths is almost inestimable. Over 160,000 Americans die of cancer each year. Many more evidence to prove that the endtime is here but still no 1 knows the time. Christians shouldn't be ignorant of the truth, they should read more of their bible not only listening to the words of pastors and all that, forgetting that on the last day, Pastor go answer him papa name. |

Guys, are we saying he does not deserve the jet after years of meritorious service in the Lord's vineyard? Can't we at least be happy for him? 1 Like |
Re: Bishop Mike Okonkwo Acquires Private Jet by Tonyet1(m): 10:33am On Nov 25, 2008 |
@shinystar, i have a lil question for you!, where did this men get the money from?, if you say from the offerings and tithes now , have you ever seen sheep feeding shepherds before?, only in the endtime church, i am a pentecostal christian and to be candid i am beginning to get afraid with the latest trends in our sects, forgive me to say this, OKONKWO missed it this time, a leader that Jesus preached about is someone that is a servant. . . period |

Whilst i do not hold brief for Bishop Okonwo whom i see as Just another successful Super rich "holy" Business man, i have not been able to verify this private Jet story as being true. I have spoken to a number of his Church members (His headquaters is very close to my house) and non of them seems to be aware of this information. If the info had been announced like the OP asserted, then his church members should know. |
Re: Bishop Mike Okonkwo Acquires Private Jet by Dbaby4: 11:47am On Nov 25, 2008 |
The lord is supplying all his needs according to his riches in Glory. no shaking our God is not a poor God, so our Men of God need to display the richness of God to the gentiles. Make them ride on oh! NOTHING DO THEM |
Re: Bishop Mike Okonkwo Acquires Private Jet by shinystar(m): 11:59am On Nov 25, 2008 |
KunleOshob, I was part of the reportorial team for the conference where he made the announcement. Those members were probable not there or being mysterious. No that he has taken delivery though because he said what is left is giving them the specifications. So, technically, he has acquired pending delivery.\ By the way, does anyone has any idea how a jet costs? |
Re: Bishop Mike Okonkwo Acquires Private Jet by KunleOshob(m): 12:09pm On Nov 25, 2008 |
shinystar:A private jet could cost anything between a million dollars for a tokunbo turbo prop model and up to thirty million dollars for a brand new state of the art gulf stream five made to specifications. Now since your post mentions "specifications" that suggests he is buying a brand new corporate jet. One that would be capable of long haul flights (intercontinental flights to europe and america) should cost at least twenty million dollars. Yet his main church auditorium remains uncompleted almost ten years after the building was started |
Re: Bishop Mike Okonkwo Acquires Private Jet by Tonyet1(m): 12:17pm On Nov 25, 2008 |
shinystar: $20,000,000 to[b] $35,000,000 [/b] FOR A 2ND-3RD HAND $50,000,000 FOR A FAIRLY USED $80,000,000 to[b] $100,000,000 [/b] for a brand new personal |
Re: Bishop Mike Okonkwo Acquires Private Jet by shinystar(m): 12:25pm On Nov 25, 2008 |
It is well! I leave us to ponder on the costs. |
Re: Bishop Mike Okonkwo Acquires Private Jet by KunleOshob(m): 12:53pm On Nov 25, 2008 |
tonye-t:Your figures are way off the mark, maybe youare quoting the prices for a commercial jet or a boeing business jet which in itself is a commercial jet converted for private use. A standard state of the art Gulf stream 5 costs approximately $30 million U.S depending on specifications. The Gulf stream is regarded as the best brand of business jet available. |
