Pastor Adeboye Of Redeemed Church Justifies Purchase Ofprivate Jet

Enoch Adeboye, the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, has justified his purchase of a private jet saying it is necessary for his work.

Mr. Adeboye, one of the most respected Christian leaders in Nigeria and the head of the Redeemed Church that has millions of members across 160 countries, stated this in an interview with global news channel, Aljazeera.

The pastor said “there are things you need,” to perform the task he does as the general overseer.

“When you have to oversee churches in 160 countries, you can’t do that on a bicycle,” he said in response to a specific question on whether he needed to have acquired a private jet.

Though considered unique in his simple appearance and un-flamboyant lifestyle, Mr. Adeboye is one of the increasing numbers of Pentecostal pastors that have acquired private jets, leading to condemnations by some Nigerians.

The other private jet acquiring pastors include David Oyedepo, the head of the Living Faith Church Worldwide; and Ayo Oritsejafor, the current President of the Christian Association of Nigeria.

Despite presiding over churches with hundreds of thousands of poor people, they have all argued that they need the private jets for God’s work.

But sir, the pope is the leader of over 1 billion catholics worldwide, yet he boards a commercial jet liner. If my memory has not failed me,Pope Benedict visited Benin republic two years ago on Air Italia

hahahahahaha Naija

I believe baba as order another be that..

finally, the LAST MAN STANDING is down.
dear Christians, can't y'all see?... IT'S A SCAM!.
RUN!

Anyway in life you can always find reasons to justify any action. It makes life very interesting.
For instance you can even justify having 3 or 4 jets in the midst of poverty stricken members some of whom don't even have access to clean water.

The biggest problem with jet acquisition is that by collecting such gifts from politicians, our pastors find it difficult to defend the poor by talking some sense into our politicians. Rather when our politicians visit them, they just shower prayers for them and not say a word about the situation of the poor and jobless youths in the church.
If religious leaders can no longer speak for the poor, then the country is finished
So one can say that some of our pastors have contributed a lot to corruption in Nigeria.
If you must own a jet, why 3 or 4 when members feed on $2 a day. What happened to youth empowerment/job creation for church members.
Last time I checked, thats not Christ-like

na who like better thing he has the money so let him spend it

hmmn, well if it helps him to achieve his assignment then no problem.

How many private jets did jesus own during his time? GOD will judge all dis 419 pastors.

Wow, that was super fast! Already on front page! Saw this on aljazeera like 30 mins ago before PHCN struck. Decided to check Nairaland to pass time and GBAM same news already on frontpage.

Nwa oguta: How many private jets did jesus own during his time? GOD will judge all dis 419 pastors.

Jesus did not have overseas membership Goddamnit. Our pastors have millions of members in over 160 countries. How many members did Jesus have ? Jesus needed a boat and a donkey and he used them. There was no private jet then, I am sure Jesus would have got one, if there was jet then and if he could afford to.

Wisdom most of the times don't reside where it should be. Religion leaders my foot.

I have said several times that saving Nigeria starts from Churches and Mosques. When the Imams and Church leaders start to say and do the right things, then Nigeria will be better for it.

And Jesus wept

Do we need jet to go to the creeks and villages especially the northern parts of the country to evangelize?how many jets sorry donkey did christ and his apostles have to preach the gospel. Or how many jets did the missionaries buy to bring us xtianity.
