Should Men Of God Have Bodyguards? by infonubia(m): 2:46am On Dec 14, 2013 |
[img]http://2.bp..com/-wVrbnkOLZo4/UqifuMjw7RI/AAAAAAAADiY/JjpNbs9CksQ/s576/pastor-bodyguard.png[/img] This picture of Pastor Chris Okotie ministering in a church with four mean-looking guards got me wondering if Christianity has not been taken to another level. Is it really necessary to have bodyguards all around our Men of God? Pastor Chris was in the news lately for statements he made regarding all Catholics going to hell (read here). The question is should Men of God have bodyguards? Why is it prevalent in Christianity? Have your say.... http://www.infonubia.com/2013/12/question-of-day-should-men-of-god-have.html 1 Like |

If a so called man of god can't have enough faith in his god for protection,why should i? Even Okotie knows god doesn't exist and he's just in it for the money gullible Nigerians are ever willing to part with. The bodyguards are there just in case a member of the congregation tries to act the føol & make away with the tithes & offerings 3 Likes |

Security is just a simple common sense. Certain measure may be taken when there's security concern . It is simple common sense. Jesus took security measures when such need arose . Paul took security measures when such need arose . If a man of God feel the need of measures in the face of robbery , assassin or kidnappers , he is free to take such measure according to his level of faith. That doesn't take away prayers. Because after all theses measures have been taken . We don't put faith in them . Safety is still by God. But the physical measures cAn prevent some evil 2 Likes |

And it is hilarious that these so called ( more like self appointed) MOG have faith to heal all diseases ( in theory ) but no faith in the ability of God to protect them, lol. Fake lot they all are !!! 24 Likes |

frosbel: Did Jesus do any evil to have enemies? Did paul do any evil to have assassins sent after him? Why did Jesus escape being lynched by muderrers? It's better to prevent evil than escaping evil . Do you know how many times paul suffered robbery? Security is common sense. The Lord is still our shepherd . When Jesus got security information that assassins were out for him. He refused to go down to Judaea . Was that cowardness ? . It's common sense . The Lord is still our shepherd. John 7:1 . . .for He would not travel in Judea because the Jews were seeking to kill Him. 16 Likes |

The answer is NO! The idea and sight of it gives the impression that the MOG has some faith and security disagreements with God, which is not a good sign. I mean why not just stick with the usual church protocol officers who stand beside the altar wearing suits (not that I fancy that anyway)...but it's better than using men who look like they came to engage in guerilla warfare inside the house of God. #pathetic 5 Likes |
