Presiding Bishop, Living Faith Church Worldwide, David Oyedepo on Sunday said he would consider it a demotion if invited to become Nigeria’s president.

Oyedepo, during his sermon, said God specifically, in 1984 asked him if he was interested in going top and that he answered in the affirmative.

He said God told him, “Then whatever I tell you to do, do it. Don’t run around: whatever I tell you to do, do it. Don’t muse about: whatever I tell you to do. Don’t do what they do: do what I tell you to do.

“1984! Do you know that’s what led me to say, “I will consider it a demotion…” and I’m saying it again, some are very upset about it, that’s their problem.

“I will consider it a demotion if I were invited to be the President of this great country. It’s a great country, it’s a great honour for anyone to be President but that’s not where I belong. I belong to ‘above all nations,” he said.

True! Its better to be a Shepherd than to be a zookeeper!

Kobojunkie:
Who made him a shepherd?

Jesus Christ never made his disciples/followers shepherd over his sheep. He is the ONLY shepherd over His own sheep. He alone is the one to Teach/instruct/Help/Guide/Counsel etc. His shepherd. He made this clear in His commandments, warning His followers never to install themselves over His sheep.
How can a sheep be expected to shepherd another sheep? Don't you all listen to what Jesus Christ said at all?

Adrian9:
That is his title. I didn't give him. Pastor means Shepherd. Go and check.
The clergy love titles a lot,they are the opposite of Jesus In that respect!

Kobojunkie:
I beg to differ.... I believe they are the opposite of Jesus Christ in many many more ways than just that.
