As Outrageous as it may sound,but this is the reality on ground if what we received from members of Christ Embassy is anything to go by.

The Church has tasked its various Parishes a whopping N10,000,000 to be paid within the next one week to celebrate the birthday of its founder Pastor Chris Oyakhilome in a country and society reeling in abject poverty.

This is the story as narrated by one of its members Mr Al Akhigbe.
 
From Al Akhigbe from the group on FB: Where is Rev Anita Oyakhilome
 

ALWAYS MONEY MATTERS
 

Letter From Christ Embassy To It Parishes:
 
'"Esteemed Group Pastor,

Warm greetings in the matchless name of Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Amen.
Congratulations on the just concluded International Pastors and Partners Conference.IPPC.
I have been directed by our highly esteemed Zonal Director, Pastor ----------- to remind you of your Financial commitment to offer 7, the birthday of our dear Man of God, Pastor Chris Oyakhilome, Phd.

The minimum target for each Group is ten million Naira only (N10,000,000.00) .
Kindly note that the money is expected on or before 2nd December as you are aware that the birthday is on the 7th of December.
Thank you for your outstanding commitment to the vision of our ministry.
Signed-----'"

 
Now, the above letter just hit my email box. And I thought I should share a thought or two for the benefit of those who don't know why we are doing what we are doing.

Now, in this zone, there are twelve groups plus the zonal church. The twelve groups will give a total sum of N120,000,000.00 and the zonal church will give N100,000,000.00 making a total of N220,000,000.00 (equivalent of approximately USD $1.3 million dollars). Let us assume every zone in Nigeria alone gives $1 million dollars each, about $30 million dollars will accrue to one man. Ghana will give big, SA will not lag behind et cetera.

Tell me why the man will not play God? This is aside the personal effects that will be sold on that day for tens of millions of dollars. Why should such a man admit to wrongdoing or take correction from a mere mortal? It can only take God to bring him to his kneels.
 
Ironically, those being fleeced of these monies are suffering and shouting hallelujah while our apostles live in flagrant luxury. Some businesses have grounded, homes broken, people pauperized because of these ungodly extortions. Giving is a Godly principle that works for Christian, pagans, Muslims, Buddhists, anyone and anywhere. But these manipulated exploitation of God's people is certainly not of God.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, how many times did Jesus celebrate his birthday? Okay, birthday was not in vogue then. We knew some people WILLINGLY ministered to Him of their substances. But how many times did Jesus call for donations or give his disciples targets to meet to enable Him run His ministry? Oh, I forgot, Jesus was too divine for such.

Then, can someone show me which of the apostles or disciples that did it? All the doctrines of giving that is enforced in this ministry are borrowed from the old testament. When it concerns money, old testament is applied. But when it concerns righteousness, you are reminded that old testament have been abolished. That is why every iniquity they commit are explained away in the concept of sin.
 
As I explained in my book Acts Of Our Apostles, one of the major reasons most African nations are poor is the rate at which our churches mop up money from circulation. The already poor people are dispossessed of their meagre incomes to the tune of billions of dollars every year, not to be invested in any beneficial project for them, but to provide luxury and thin god status for the pastors. Offer 7, Offer 1,2,3 to 31 are all avenues for filthy lucre. Any endeavour that has no benefits to mankind is futile"

Anyone who doesn't or didn't know from the get-go that this man called Chris Oyakhilome is a scammer of the highest order needs to get his head flogged. And strongly too. With a cane, a very massive one assembled from tree barks, koboko, animal skin and the finest of animal hair.

Outrageous
seems these days everyone now commercialize the answering of God's call,
Make I dey wait maybe He go give me.missed call self

When even the most unreligious, but humble politicians the world over celebrate quiet birthdays and make no noise about it, this thieving pastor thinks making other people pay for his birthday celebrations is just appropriate.
Man, it'll continue to baffle me how Nigerians could be so gullible enough to fall for his trickery. But on second thought, even cannibalistic Rev. King had his own followers among Nigerians.

weytin consine you, nah ur money them tey dey give, people wey they give the money them dey complain for ur faher?
