why cant their blind man-god protect them?

Them tell us say fear not GOD is with you... Psalm 91.

1 He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. 2 I will say of the LORD, "He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust." 3 Surely he will save you from the fowler's snare and from the deadly pestilence. 4 He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart. 5 You will not fear the terror of night, nor the arrow that flies by day, 6 nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness, nor the plague that destroys at midday. 7 A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, but it will not come near you. 8 You will only observe with your eyes and see the punishment of the wicked. 9 If you make the Most High your dwelling-- even the LORD, who is my refuge-- 10 then no harm will befall you, no disaster will come near your tent. 11 For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways; 12 they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone. 13 You will tread upon the lion and the cobra; you will trample the great lion and the serpent. 14 "Because he loves me," says the LORD, "I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name. 15 He will call upon me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him. 16 With long life will I satisfy him and show him my salvation."



This bible passage is for the poor members only... Not for the pastors that why they need body guards

AdelokikiMr: . Mr Op, why should a man of God that preach against sin should be afraid of death or any attack when he knew is doing his mater Job and if anything happens to him he's still going to be at the masters arm or palace, Fine I'm a man of God That preaches about Faith and yet I do not have the faith that the God will protect me anywhere I am instead I use my own little way of protecting myself with body guards, to me I would rather preach d competence of d body guard instead of me preaching d person dat could nt guide me..which means if dey are truly man of God they will not be afraid no matter what shikena

God will always protect his children, but they also do their bits about protecting themselves. Throughout bible history God did not move to save the children of Israel, without them being physically present doing their own bit

lalasticlala:

In another instance, at the eve of Jesus' crucifixion, during his arrest, Peter used knife (arms) to cut off the ear of one of those that had come to arrest his master (oga) in an attempt to protect him.

Correct me where necessary.

u quoted only d portion dat supports ur arguement.
If u go down further dat verse , u will realise dat Jesus reaction shows dat He is averse to d idea of body guard

Happy Sunday

PAGAN9JA: why cant their blind man-god protect them?

haba why now?

synergycom19:

we are talking of pastors here not israelites damn it

A pastor with bodyguards is a pastor with no faith in God period. Shouldn't he wrap himself in the armour of God and be willing to die for his belief? The one lesson pastors and Christians in general should learn from terrorists...is that they are willing to die for their belief. Not everyone that says he is of God is of God...by their words and actions we should discern the wolves in sheep clothing.

My wahala be say who kwanu go bear the costs of expensive security such as these?

If you say Jesus used his disciples as body guards, then you Pastors should use their church members as body guards shouldn't they? Why then do they move around with armed thugs, policemen and probably military men some of who are not even christians?
Your comparison doesn't add up.
Sorry.

Nairaland is anti-christian site. Every sunday rather than bring up an edifying topic, all they do is bring church bashing, Christ bashing or clergy bashing topics and no MOD regulates christian threads the way maclatunji regulates islam thread.

Most anti-christian comments here are from muslims and atheist, which u can never see in islamic threads.

i am out of here! unfollows thread.

Real pastors do not need bodyguards but fake ones need

saintvc: Did jesus use body-guard?

There are much d bible was silent about Jesus Jh.21:25. And attempt or claim to d knowledge of d person of Jesus cannot be adequate no matter d research, cos d more u know d more u discover u have much u have not know. Beside Jesus was surrounded wit men and women dat has made remarkable success in there endearvous, that shuld tell u of wot they were capable of having access to.

I heard one pastor in Nigeria has abt three private jets, plz is ds true?
If true, plz are his followers crazy?

See this mu-mu OP comparing Jesus Christ and this crop of hypocritical Pharisees called Nigerian pastors. That this $hit made frontpage is the bigger tragedy.

....... - 10 then no harm will befall you, no disaster will come near your tent. 11 For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in your ways; 12 they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone. 13 You will tread upon the lion and the cobra; you will trample the great lion and the serpent.

Note.
When you step on people... You need bodyguards... When you think your games will be over soon you need bodyguards... When you think people don't love you because of your too much money you need bodyguards... When you have rivals you need more bodyguards, when you have fear, you need 2 many bodyguards....when you eat peoples money you need bodyguards you never can tell...when you have opposition , you need bodyguards.


The Bible passage psalm 91. Not even one angel will come near you . So I support they shld have many many many too much bodyguards.

i dont buy d idea.

have faith sheeples Dog is in control

Topestbilly:

Why are you so confuse?

I wanted to say these men CANNOT be equated with Jesus.

I don't know about you, but d main reason why most pastors have security men is to prevent multitude of men and women from rushing to them and sleeping at their gate.

If my Bishop Oyedepo has no security men around him, people will be sleeping @ his gate waiting for him to lay hand on them and can even tear his clothes or turn his premises to refuge camp

Jesus has his disciples guiding him all his days on earth, even paul raise his own disciples as well pls read ur bible well

Fr Mbaka believe b4 that he didn't need guards until circumstances prove him order wise

The people that guard my Bishop at d altar are members of CCU(Crowd Control Unit) not mopol

queensenglish91: David said that. Why did he have armies and guards?

David was a king not a prophet of God. You grab?

NoContract: Ok

. 3rd pic is deep and demands reasoning

God bless u for bringing this up! But if u are comparing Jesus with this pastors, then u are wrong cause Jesus carried his disciples along not for protection but to aid him in spreading the word so if the pastors in question wanna do same, they should move around with their junior pastors and co not the damn bodyguards.......

Deluded followers allowing theirselves to be deceived by pastors and politicians. May i never be like u bigots.

End time pastors

Let them use Bodyguard if they want it

Let them use Bodyguard if they need it

my own

Its a wrong believe so that means you the pastor dont have believe in your maker for protection rather on man! What are you preaching?

Eyepencil: T.B JOSHUA IS A REAL MAN OF GOD


HE NEEDS NO BODYGUARD TO PROTECT HIM

.

Ok
