Will you shut up you lame-brained nematode.
What business does oyedepo do that made him richer than the richest bank CEO in Nigeria?
You and oyedepo will share in the same divine judgement.

Jakeattah:
I pray they make heaven's rich list too sha

Cos that one won't depend on how popular you are.

majekdom2:
if only you know how much he is worth and church regulations on signatory to accounts.

majekdom2:
but you just used the verb " ask " ... it is never a sin to ask . like I said its about your belief .. elijah fed on the meal of a widow and her son ... if it were to be these days , he will be condemned even by some of his followers.

majekdom2:
Ok Sir , tell me when these bank CEO'S started their businesses.... it is to everyman according his belief.

sirjohnson:
Are they gods of men or men of God? Meanwhile Oyedepo already responded to the title of the being the richest pastor...Read what he said Here

Last year, Pastor adefarasin was upset that he wasnt listed among the richest pastors in Nigeria. Read that one Here

I have vowed not to go to church again...Cant afford giving any of my penny to those already made billionaires

F117A:
The head of a 'charity organization' richer than the richest bank CEO in the same country , and you think that's alright?
You are either a criminal, or an irredeemable slowpoke.

F117A:
So you actually believe a church is supposed to be a business?
You are a thief.
Oyedepo is far richer than the CEO of first bank.
A bank that started in 1894, long before oyedepo's father was born.

majekdom2:
you are the slowpoke .... whats with a "bank CEO" that a pastor cannot be richer than ...wake up man . is it because they keep money in banks .... so funny . a church isnt fully considered a charity organization. it is only part of its responsibilities to assist in charities ... those men of God have their personal businesses they run , their whole wealth is not just from their church and church affilaites alone. if you think you should not be rich as a pastor then you should not be rich as an individual also. I see you dont see yourself beyond a bank's CEO. THE fact that money is kept in the bank does not make a CE0, what you may not know is the CEO does business with same money you are dieing to keep.

Neldrizzy:

Amya:
People's heart are set in stone, so I'm not saying this to try to convince anyone, but to simply state how I feel about this matter.


Associating Jesus is first coming with pomp and pageantry was how the Jews missed it. Since he was the son of God, they expected him to be wealthy beyond belief. But rather he came the son of a carpenter and never believed he was the son of God and ended up killing him even. The Jewish people are till date awaiting the first coming of the messiah.

Most pastors these associate wealth with God and sometimes even righteousness even when that same God they claim to worship sent his son to live like a pauper. Jesus did all that not so we could enjoy immerse wealth, but to really connect with our soul, our self and our spirituality. He thought us to be humble, to be patient kind loving, devoted and being a blessing to others. He preached about joys and riches of God's kingdom and the only way getting that is leaving all material wealth and people to follow me.

Yet all these pastors do is preach and preach about material wealth. How that's God's blessing and how you have to drop some offerings to access that blessing. They ignore all passages of the scriptures which tells people to renounce their wealth and follow Jesus. Passages that say it's easier for a camel to pass the eye of a needle than a rich man are all safely ignored.

Anyone who has ever had a spiritual awakening will tell you this. The two greatest things that can't mix in this universe is materialism and spirituality. For you to be strong spiritually, you have to be denounce materialism or anything that pleases the flesh. This is why people fast. This is why people live in caves and climb mountains in the quest of getting spiritually quest. But who are these who represent spirituality in our so called churches? fast talking preachers who preach prosperity prosperity and more prosperity, as if that's what life is really all about.

When you read comments by Nigerian youths, one will not be surprised at the level of mental deficiency in the country. It does not take any intelligence or creativity to criticize!

Most Nigerians are mentally lazy and believe that if you are rich, then you must be dubious. I know of Bishop Oyedepo and Pastor Matthew very well, and I must say that despite my education and years of work, I don't know one tenth of what these men know, and I aspire to read at least a tenth of how wide they read.

There are thousands of Nigerian Pastor, and only about 10 are rich...It is then very unintelligent for anyone to say that Nigerian Pastors are rich. Show me one rich pastor in Nigeria, I will show you 200 that can not send their children to good schools. The two Pastors I mentioned are men of God who at the same time have their businesses. I know Winners and KICC, and the folks there are not poor. There are captains of industries in these churches. Go to KICC , and see men and women who are doing well and still serving God. If these people who are more educated, intelligent and doing well in life more than many jobless Nairalanders are going to church and pay their tithes, is it not stupid for any jobless man to say the folks in Church are poor. What does a poor have to give in the first place.

It is intelligent to know how much churches make and how much they spend in a month, then you will know the truth. Winners Chapel owns Covenant University, KICC owns Kings University....and Covenant University charges lesser than St Gregory Obalende- a Catholic secondary school charges per term.

Does anyone know that Pastor Matthew own a rice farm here in Nigeria that is about 20 times bigger than the one owned by a state in which his farm is situated? Does anyone know that this man stands to Preach 3 hours at his age, yet many young men in their thirties can not stand for 30 minutes......Now a know, it does not take intelligence to criticize.

majekdom2:
there is no where in the bible where a poor man is said to have easy access to the kingdom either ... God knows wealth comes with its challenges of being spiritual . that's we got to keep praying for grace. it is there in the scriptures that God gives power to attain wealth. we just fail to see the other things these men of God preach along side wealth.

Mark 10:17-31New Living Translation (NLT)

The Rich Man

17 As Jesus was starting out on his way to Jerusalem, a man came running up to him, knelt down, and asked, “Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?”

18 “Why do you call me good?” Jesus asked. “Only God is truly good. 19 But to answer your question, you know the commandments: ‘You must not murder. You must not commit adultery. You must not steal. You must not testify falsely. You must not cheat anyone. Honor your father and mother.’[a]”

20 “Teacher,” the man replied, “I’ve obeyed all these commandments since I was young.”

21 Looking at the man, Jesus felt genuine love for him. “There is still one thing you haven’t done,” he told him. “Go and sell all your possessions and give the money to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.”

22 At this the man’s face fell, and he went away sad, for he had many possessions.

23 Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, “How hard it is for the rich to enter the Kingdom of God!” 24 This amazed them. But Jesus said again, “Dear children, it is very hard[b] to enter the Kingdom of God. 25 In fact, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the Kingdom of God!”

26 The disciples were astounded. “Then who in the world can be saved?” they asked.

27 Jesus looked at them intently and said, “Humanly speaking, it is impossible. But not with God. Everything is possible with God.”

28 Then Peter began to speak up. “We’ve given up everything to follow you,” he said.

29 “Yes,” Jesus replied, “and I assure you that everyone who has given up house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or property, for my sake and for the Good News, 30 will receive now in return a hundred times as many houses, brothers, sisters, mothers, children, and property—along with persecution. And in the world to come that person will have eternal life. 31 But many who are the greatest now will be least important then, and those who seem least important now will be the greatest then.[c]”

What is this sorry did he give one Kobo to the poor people in Syria at the moment you are a stupid follower of this herensy gospel please read your bible and don't hear of the fake gospel of this God of man.

F117A:
You are an idiott.
Oyedepo is the head of a charity organization, which is why they don't pay tax.
The BANK CEO analogy is just to show the depth of criminality your pastors perpetrate.
Only in Nigeria, will a pastor be richer than the head of one of the biggest profit seeking financial institutions in sub-saharan africa.

Gabson91:
I wonder why everyone here is going bitter over their riches, these are kingdom principles, you make God's business yours, and He makes yours His. This men have paid their dues, i bet non of you even remember to fast not to talk of praying fervently. Be inspired and not Hating on them.
