Omo_Tier1: The late Archbishop Benson Idahosa operated under the same 'anointing' and people could not fathom how He was able to build schools, hospital, plant churches. Many said it was church members money, yet the members themselves knew their contribution could not put up these schools and hospitals.Many said, oh His church members were so poor and yet He was building schools that only the rich can attend, yet the schools and hospital he built has helped shaped the life of millions, both rich and poor.

Those of us who have keyed into this "different" and divine way of living are already being accused even though we have not even started yet! Many of you really do not understand when the bible talked about 'US' that ALL of creation is earnestly awaiting our manifestation. This manifestation covers everything including stupendous wealth, divine healing, etc.


For you all that accuse MOGs and those of us who choose to live this life without guilt, I leave this with you Psalm 112 vs 1-6

"1 Praise the LORD. Blessed is the man who fears the LORD, who greatly delights in his commandments!
2 His descendants will be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright will be blessed.
3 Wealth and riches are in his house; and his righteousness endures for ever.
4 Light rises in the darkness for the upright; the LORD is gracious, merciful, and righteous.
5 It is well with the man who deals generously and lends, who conducts his affairs with justice.
6 For the righteous will never be moved; he will be remembered for ever ..."

Really??
You must be r.e.t.a.r.d.e.d for saying that.

eldoradoxx: That is the problem of an average Nigerian, well versed in opinionated ignorance. The guy said schools are exempted from tax which is true, but because you are rather empty, you could neither contradict him with what you know other than insults. Let me ask you again, do schools pay tax in Nigeria?

hansobuks: To all you pips on NL dat wont leave Bishop David Oyedepo alone, have you ever tot how possible it is for only one man to control such a multitude, mind you, inside this multitude, we have medical doctors, PHD holder, professors, chatered accountants, legal practitioners,engineers that are both locally and internationally certified, senior advocates on nigeria, people from virtually all discipline that are far more intelligent than you. Do you thinks these people dont know what they are doing? The answer is NO. they have definitely felt the arms of God through his Prophet Bishop David Oyedepo. As for you who started this tread, so you actuaali went to shiloh to find out facts you will hold the bishiop with? i pray God forgives you. God is indeed using his son. i am a proof of dat. i advice you use your time in doing something useful. other than looking for unimportant facts that wont lead you anywhere. Please nairalanders, i once castigated against the Bishop, buh i have actuali realised he is a true man of God. pls, dont listen to these pple, they will just succeed in riping you of your blessing.

eldoradoxx: U got it all wrong, I didn't go to Shiloh to hear how much he earns, God forbid. I actually started this thread to reply to many people who have been accusing Papa of swindling poor people. I am totally loyal to the teachings and principles expoused by papa. So am never accusing him and educating pple that he is not into church. As a source of income!

muyiwah666: It is either this man is fake or he was showing off sometime in in May 1995,when he said at the Winners Chapel,Raji Oba by Iyana Ipaja....that he was earning 400k that period....he said that senior pastors earn 120k and junior pastors earn 100k....i was in the church that day..no be say somebody tell me !...i heard him clearly,it was a Tuesday evening service and i sat very close to d pulpit....his sermon that evening got me thinking about going to pastoral school because i was an applicant as at that time.....he said plainly that he is the one that sign the salaries of everybody that works for the church including the wife...

odum desmond: Is Covenant University really expensive compared to quality of facilities and teaching going on there? Baze University , Abti American Uni Yola, etc charge excess of N1.5 million yet cannot compete with Covenant. Igbinedion University, Afe Babalola Uni etc charge way above btw 450-600k that Covenant charges, why are they not dishing similar quality as Covenant? See, University education is expensive, all Federal University students are subsidized annually by Fed Govt to the tune of about 300-400k in form grants and hundreds of millions of monthly subventions, they also get research grants, get ETF /TET fund interventions . Private unis get no dime, so how do they survive? Covenant is charging that low fee because according to Prof Obayan, the church stil gives it subvention for running. People shud stop complaining, how much does school fees even by local student in Ghana universities cost? What of Europe and America? Is Covenanat supposed to be because church has poor members? Well let them take opportunity of their brains and get scholarship, the school offers that too.

eldoradoxx: This is a big fat lie. As in 1995, Papa was already a multi millionaire. How can he be earning 400k while his book " Hidden Covenant of Blessing" states somewhere that as far as 1995 he was paying monthly tithe of N1 million.

garri4all:
yes they do.
owners of private school do pay tax, I know for sure.

eldoradoxx: Wow, wat a wonderful submission to those who think that christainty is tantamount to penury!!!

ehie: @sam xiu lee,ur mind sharp pass razor...lol...private jet..drugs....colombians...new angle of thought...nice one bro

Good afternoon,

Hmmm...leave it to God? Don't you think that sometimes God actually want's us to speak up and ask some questions?

Check the abolition of slave trade as an example. It happened because some persons decided to speak up and even give their lives for the cause.

I believe in speaking up constructively. If something is happening that we do not understand or we feel is wrong then I see no reason why we should ask questions or speak up in a bid to correcting it.

eldoradoxx: Its not true! I can authoritatively tell you that our tax law exempts schools(educational institutions) societies, Unions, churches/mosques etc that are providing services without profit motives from paying tax. Schools are not establish as profit making venture but to render services to the society and charging of fees does not indicate profit motives. I will check Company Income Tax Act on monday and refer u to the section.
