He owns no ‘Private “JET"’ unlike
some Pastors, despite the fact that
he Pastors the third largest
Christian Church in the World. He’s
the Founding Father of Deeper
Life Bible Church (DLBC). From
findings, Deeper Life now has
multiple branches in 40 African
countries including: Philippines,
Malta, Russia, Romania, Ukraine,
Holland, Hong-Kong, Germany,
India, Austria, Italy, France,
Jamaica, UK, USA, Canada and
Brazil.
Deeper Life Bible Church is among
the largest Church in the World
with over a Million members all
over the World. It has grown to
more than 120,000 members
from just 50,000 in 1988, making
it the third largest Christian
Church in the World. It was
reported by one Dr. John
Combrinck that Deeper Life Bible
Church not only has an
attendance of 120,000 every
blessed Sunday, but has planted
more than 500 Churches in Lagos.
Also, more than 5,000 in the rest
of Nigeria (with an independent
estimate of more than 800,000
members in Nigeria alone), and
3,000 elsewhere (with
missionaries to 40 countries of
Africa) as the Church’s Missionary
contribution; YET, this man has no
private “JET”…who needs it most
if not Him
The Deeper Life Bible Church is the
flagship Organization of the
Deeper Christian Life Ministry with
Headquarters at Gbagada, Lagos.
The Ministry has many different
Organizations including the
International Bible Training
Centre, Life Press Ltd, Life Tapes
Ltd, Life Farms, Women’s Mirror
Ltd and the Deeper Life Schools
Network.
Although Pastor Kumuyi is the
General Superintendent of the
Ministry, he does not draw any
Salary from his work instead the
Church gives him an allowance for
his upkeep. The modest house he
dwells is located in the
compounds of the International
Bible Training Centre, Ayobo, and
his Car is owned by the Church as
a collective. He does not have a
larger-than-lif e character unlike
others!
If Pastors were defrauding and
duping their members, count
Kumuyi out. He’s a sacrificial
leader; a poor humble leader who
hasn’t monetized fame nor
personalized the popularity of his
church. He does not dominate nor
has he accrued power to himself.
He walks slowly, is relaxed, and
has a gentle sense of humour
with a warm smile and a twinkle
in his eyes. He dresses simply…
and… could he have assumed
titles to himself. He calls his
followers brothers and sisters,
and treats them as colleagues.
There is no stratification
whatsoever in his church; Poor
Street Traders sits next to
University Professors, CEOs and so
on, all equally captivated by the
way Scripture becomes suddenly
relevant to them. When he
preaches, his message is clear,
simple, and profound, and
delivered in simple English that is
easily understood by Petty
Traders, Students and Professors
alike.
He works tirelessly, selflessly and
with unblinking commitment to
achieve goals; puritanically
committed to preaching and
teaching all about ‘Living a Holy
Life’ whilst one’s sojourn on this
sinful terrestrial earth- A Holiness
Preacher! He’s a Bible teacher; He
teaches Bible as if he was there
when it was written. His in-depth
understanding of the teachings
and principles of the Bible is
evident in his preaching.
He’s no doubt one of the greatest
living preachers; giving a
straightforward Bible-base
message, his sermons thorough
and always personally captivating
and challenging. He always gave a
wide range of cross-reference s
which were read in their context,
supporting, clarifying and
expanding his main points.
He’s called Pastor Williams
Folorunso Kumuyi, born on June
6, 1941, raised in an Anglican
home in Erin Ijesa, a town which
homes the Olumirin Waterfall, in
the State of Osun. He completed
his Secondary School Education at
Mayflower School in 1961 and
started teaching Mathematics in
the same school in 1962, got born
again in1964 after been
introduced to the Apostolic Faith.
He graduated from the Premier
University of Ibadan with a First
Class Degree in Mathematics in
1967. He obtained a Postgraduate
Certificate of Education from the
University of Lagos in 1973 after
five-year teaching job at the
Mayflower school. He was
retained as a lecturer at the
University of Lagos in 1973; there
he started a Bible Study group of
15 Students who had come to
him requesting training in the
Scriptures.
That was how Deeper Life Bible
Church started before it was
formally established in 1983, after
the small group had grown to
several thousands. Pastor W.F
Kumuyi is happily married and
blessed with two grown up boys-
John & Jerry!

He's a good pastor. Though, man Judges according to outward appearance, God see the Heart.

Plz none is perfect poster. Luk unto Jesus insted. Luk well lest U fall. Kumuyi is a man.

Jesus is our role model no doubt but it doesn't prevent us from acknowledging examplary preachers who distinguished themselves at a time the world of the christian community is neck deep into damnable heresies created by bending to pressures from modern day evil civilization.

I deeply respect Mr Kumuyi & his undiluted holiness teachings.Yet enemies of sinless purity will dare to call such like him "cult" & other evil names.Shame to haters of holiness on this forum.

The only thing I have against this post is the part about pastor kumuyi not dominating. He dominate though often in a good way. Domination nevertheless.

As usual we cannot go beyond worshipping our pastors.

That's Good@ op
But, know that your personal relationship with God matters

Why do pentecostal churches like telling lies.How on earth is deeper life church the third largest church in the world? It is not even the third largest church in Nigeria nor even the theird largest pentecostal church in Nigeria.Why do pentecostal churches like inflating their data.

Ajibam: That's Good@ op
But, know that your personal relationship with God matters
