martyns303: Jesus Christ was sort after many times to be killed prior to him finally being arrested. At the point of him being arrested, one of his apostle took out a knife and cut off the ear of one of the arresting soldiers in an attempt to defend Jesus, but Jesus rebuked him, and even went ahead to heal the ear of the soldier. Am sure this is a demostration that there wasn't need for a defender (bodyguard). And if prosecutors should come, then one should face it, even with his life. A tough decision I know, but if u are not prepared for such sacrifice then u shouldn't take up a calling, u can't be enjoying the privilege and not make the sacrifice.

They don't need bodyguards, why don't they leave the book of Malachi and preach from other books of the bible, extorting money from the masses provokes a damn lot!. Maybe that's why an angry mob would attack a man of God. |

Well, if they were really, really called by God, then no need for bodyguards. Proverbs 16:7 says if a man's way pleases the Lord, He makes even his enemies at peace with him: Mathews 26: 52 says those who live by the sword shall also die by the sword ie those who live by guns shall also die by guns. Psalms 127:1 says If the LORD does not protect a city, it is useless for the guard to stay alert. So, if really these so called Pastors are genuine, they should learn to live by the word of God because the weapons of our warfare are not canal. 2 Likes |

Men become lovers of themselves rather than lovers of God.. That is what we get when "missionary" becomes "ministry" just like ministry of finance ...and the "ministry" has to move forward abi na I'm not judging them abeg o! |

lalasticlala: I used to kick against Pastors moving about with bodyguards. I was like, what do they need bodyguards for, did Jesus move about with bodyguards? [size=28pt](Matthew 16:25). For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it. (Matthew 10:39). He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it. (Mark 8:35). For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's, the same shall save it.[/size] 1 Like |

To speak the truth, pastors have no business using bodyguards, aside Jesus, which of Jesus's followers had bodyguards, was it Paul, James, John or who exactly had bodyguards. I have also come to notice that most pastors tend to copy of follow the path Jesus lead when it suits them. they never could copy his meek and general forgiving attitude. |

Any pastor that tells u not to buy drugs to heal any illness does not need bodyguards period! And if they have, its a proof that they are scarmers. |

lomprico: Any pastor that tells u not to buy drugs to heal any illness does not need bodyguards period! And if they have, its a proof that they are scarmers. Well I guess that means majority of them are scammers, because they will basically tell you exactly what you wrote here, saying; 'if you have zoe, you definately don't need to use drugs'. |

Re: Nigerian Pastors Really Need Bodyguards by daveP(m): 4:24pm On Jul 27, 2014 |
Since they started calling it 'my ministry' they have no choice than to treat it like an everyday business,thus bodyguardism surfaces.then again since they have no equal in the pastors,ministers that follow.people will have to throng for 'anointing' whereas deacon did the healing in the bible.how many can do it nowadays. Fear of death is the base of all this bodyguardness. Go look at Joel Osteen.not one bodyguard.corrupt heads that turned malachi to Moses!! I tell u any one of us that is suddenlt given 12men to be guarding us will have some selfworth.not to talk of when we have fat account,jets--PRIDE. |

All i know is that my harvest and your harvest dis week will be like dis Imagine all these perfect looking organic pinapples.That stuff is hard money when utilized maximally.It is one of the best fruits in the world and in nigeria they can be grown with little efforts,with no much need for pesticides and insecticides. No pastor or divine intervention can make you rich and comfortable,only you can set yourself free if you think and work hard.The socalled men of god thrive at the expense of the poor and ignorant.Their relevance lasts as long as the people refuse to learn. |

Rexnegro: don't mind all those pastors carrying bodyguards up n down jare...maybe they forgot the bible part that said that fear not for am with u...and the other bible part that warned people of "touch not my anointed and do my prophets no harm" as for me o my opinion is I tink they don't want to die cos they still wanna enjoy all their riches jare.... a Godly prophet shouldn't be afraid to die...but naija pastors na wetin they go chop dey run for their head alone...thats y I like daddy G.o pastor E.A adeboye u hardly see him flaunt bodyguards..tho I can't say if he has or not cos I haven't seen him with bodyguards. sorry also Adeboye has bodygards, but his didnot look at the first sign as bodyguard they look like we have it here in europa!!!!!!!!!!! but he is not better as all the other so called great man of god!!!!!!!!!!! |
