Bishop Oyedepo Fires Back At Erelu Agbaye, Says Allegation Of Occultism Amounts by REALTRUTH1: 11:03am On Jun 12, 2010 |
It was far into the night at the Living Faith Church, Ota, Ogun State penultimate Friday as the presiding bishop, David Oyedepo, delivered a lecture on empowerment to an attentive audience. The session provided the bishop an opportunity to address an issue that has raised a lot of dust in the fold of Christians lately. A woman named Dorcas Bolatito Oluwatimilehin, a.k.a Erelu Agbaye, had recently boasted that she wielded a lot of occult powers from which many religious leaders, including Bishop Oyedepo, had profited. The declaration had sent tongues wagging, with many challenging the religious leaders that were named by Erelu Agbaye to come out and clear their names. The session on empowerment, however, gave the bishop an opportunity to deny any link to occultism. In apparent response to Erelu Agbaye’s claim, Oyedepo thundered in front of the attentive congregation, “There is no satanic institution that can confront me to say that I share anything with them. I challenge them to do so. The anointing on this altar is one of the landmark events of this generation. That is why some fellows say that they gave me power. I curse that blasphemy. I command that tongue to seize forever. Oyedepo, who is also the Chancellor of Covenant University, continued, “Every time they see something working in this part of the world, they say it is charm. The Holy Spirit is the greatest charm that I know, and that is what I am using. I operate only from this platform, except you would be deceived.” The decision of the fiery faith preacher to react to the issue came as a surprise to many in the congregation, because his approach in the past had been to ignore such allegations. A lot of them reckoned that Oyedepo, who oversees a congregation of more than 50,000 worshippers in Canaanland, rarely reacts to negative reports about him, wondering why he attached so much importance to Erelu Agbaye’s allegation. “Not even the regularly televised attacks on his person and work from co-preachers like Pastor Tunde Bakare of The Latter Rain Assembly, Lagos, and Pastor Chris Oyakhilome of the Christ Embassy in about two decades of the ministry’s relocation to Lagos had moved him into making a direct pronouncement,” a source close to the clergy wondered. “Only recently, Pastor Bakare literally tore one of his books apart during one of his sermons on the television. But his stand for more than two decades had been never to reply to such accusations or castigations.” The End Time Journal, a Lagos-based soft-sell magazine had published the story in which Erelu Agbaye challenged Oyedepo to deny her claim that she was the one that had been empowering him spiritually, threatening to reveal more about the issue if Oyedepo denied it. “Of all the people I have mentioned, only one of them is no more, and that is Abacha, Erelu Agbaye had said. “I, therefore, challenge any of them who thinks I am lying to make a public denial and I will reveal more of their atrocities.” Our correspondent gathered that before Erelu’s pronouncement was published in the journal, the story had circulated in a video CD that detailed her claims. More copies of the said journal, which has Oyedepo’s picture on the cover, were circulated at a programme held at the Tafawa Balewa Square in Lagos about two weeks ago to pray for Nigeria’s golden jubilee anniversary. The vendors must have seen the programme as a good opportunity to market the publication, since it was hosted by Oyedepo and the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church, Pastor Enoch Adeboye. Expectedly, curious worshippers drawn from different denominations patronised the vendors in large numbers. But the VCD, Saturday Punch learnt, originated from Kwara State where Oyedepo hails from, and contains more shocking information than was reported in the journal. Also mentioned in the VCD are names of notable musicians like Yinka Ayefele, Ayinla Kollington, Sikiru Ayinde Barrister and King Sunny Ade. The VCD, which was originally a product of a religious forum held in May 2009 at Odo Okun, Saw Mill, Ilorin, Kwara State, later became a commercial commodity, contrary to the intention of the organisers of the event. Erelu Agbaye, who claimed to have renounced occultism herself, said she had met Oyedepo and others while she was in the cult and given them the power to succeed. But because she had renounced occultism and would now prefer to be called Erelu Jesu, she decided to make public their escapades. Erelu claimed she was at Oyedepo’s church to demand for a certain article of power she had given to him, but he allegedly refused to part with it, offering instead to pay her millions of naira, after which he would pay her N250,000 monthly as salary if she would keep the secret. She claimed that she declined the alleged offer. http://punchng.com/Articl.aspx?theartic=Art201006121405795 |

These people are all completely deluded. . . .This Erelu Agbaye woman is more deluded than all of them. . . . .She is just seeking cheap popularity and trying to become famous over night by creating ridiculous scandals. . . .Although I accept that oyedepo is a scam artist, he does his scam in a matured way, not through some mythical black power or magic that remains imaginary and is of no use to any body. . . .Do people truly believe that sacrificing a baby or another human to some imaginary spirits will make your rich?. . . If that is true then why arent Nigerians (and africans as a whole) the richest people in the world, since quite a number of Nigerians indulge in this nonsense?. . . . . Oyedepo did not get any power from any where, he uses his intelligence and tries to swindle the gullible by selling them sweet lies all the time and promising them "heaven" on earth if only they will do as he tells them. . . . . 4 Likes |

But his stand for more than two decades had been never to reply to such accusations or castigations.” The highlighted part is a false statement. Pastor Chris will never criticise another minister of God. He knows the spirit of God too much not to do that. That is why he doesn't respond to the attacks from other ministers. In his words " these are men that have people following them. I will not want to say something that will affect their members that believe in them" |

@ Mazaje, What yardstick did you use to measure the fact that Oyedepo is a scam artist? You have no basis & You are also deluded yourself. @ Joagbaje, Where were you in the 1990's when Tunde Bakare & Chris Oyakhilome were criticizing Oyedepo? You probably know nothing about it. I know because I was a member of Christ Embassy then. So if you don't know, it is better to just keep quiet & watch. 2 Likes |

Many people do not know that Winners Chapel aka Living Faith have buildings designed to glorify Satan and promote the Illuminati Many know that Convenant University is full of Occult symbols, but most ignore the fact that ever proposed built Winners Chapel aka Living Faith is a celebration of the occult. FOR EXAMPLE WINNERS CHAPEL OTA IS CALLED CANAANLAND AND THE BIBLE SAY'S CURSED IS CANAAN. Genesis 9:25 And he said, Cursed be Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren. Now think about it why call your church Canaanland unless you have satanic ideas. THE NAME CANAAN IS SO CURSED THAT A MAN WROTE ABOUT IT. SO TO CALL YOUR CHURCH CANAAN LAND SHOWS EVIL INTENTIONS ![]() WE WILL SHOW THAT THE FOLLOWING ARE ALL ILLUMINATI & FREEMASON BUILDINGS 1 WINNERS CHAPEL NAIROBI KENYA 2 WINNERS CHAPEL INTERNATIONAL TOGO 3 WINNERS CHAPEL KADUNA 4 WINNERS CHAPEL PORT HARCOURT 5 WINNERS CHAPEL ILORIN 6 WINNERS CHAPEL OWERRI 7 WINNERS CHAPEL IBADAN 8 WINNER CHAPEL BOTSWANA 9 WINNERS CHAPEL GOSHEN CITY, ABUJA 10 WINNERS CHAPEL CANAANLAND OTA Have you wondered why WINNERS CHAPEL GOSHEN CITY, ABUJA has this funny shaped roof? ![]() WE EVEN GO FUTHER TO SHOW THAT THE PASTORS ARE FREEMASONS & MEMBERS OF THE ILLUMINATI Notice the Pyramid Oyedepo flashes while preaching ![]() THERE IS SO MUCH WELL DOCUMENTED INFORMATION FOR MORE READING http://emperorundertheking..co.uk/2015/01/winners-chapel-satan-illuminati-and.html |

Work very hard, Apostle of Satan. This naïve guy talking abt Oyedepo. Glorifying Satan and the deluded woman ranting non-sense. Power from the Occult world is sort to perform miracle(magic). Now what kind of miracle do u see oyedepo performing? can u say Oyedepo got this power to preach the gospel of faith and Salvation? Have you seen a Satanic agent preaching indept gospel that can make an arm robber repent? You are blinded by satan that u just open ur mouth and tok.its a waste of time answering you. Satan or an agent of satan does what u r doing now, condenmination, not preach the gospel of ressurrection. |

Anas09: A friend introduced her to me and I invited her to my church. We organized a special programme where she gave various testimonies of her occult experiences. I discovered so many lies in her statements and as am typing, she is a wife to an allahji, having divorced her first husband. She did that not before but as a so-called evangelist. |
