Pastors, Their Wives And Billboards. by segyemaro(m): 7:29pm On Jul 13, 2009
In those days, when you see a billboard(signboard)before the activities of the church,you will see a picture of Jesus Christ at either the top or by the side of the billboard. But what we see today is either the presiding pastors and their wives posing at 80% of the billboard or the G.Os and their wives,just living 20% to the informations and activities of the church. And its now the order of the day. I was walking along a street and i came across a church billboard,the pastor and his wife occupied about 85% and a small space was for Jesus passport photograph squeezed with the church informations,i kept wandering why is it like this,so i decided to share it with fellow Nairalanders. Can you tell us the type of churches billboards(sign boards) you come across everyday.

Most pictorial descriptions of Jesus are wrong anyway, with the shoulder length hair. Let the pastors have their space! grin grin grin

How many have seen jesus face to face anyway?
You see them drawing a white jew wearing white robe like they all know what jesus looks like.
They usually forget to include saw and hammer in their diagrams since he was a carpenter. . .

They use their own and wives pictures cos it is a family business and they have to project their own images rather than Jesus who they consider as just a good marketing tool for thier business.

They are trying to market their brand just like the Olsen twins or kimora lee simmons.

It's just another business.

Pastors, Their Wives And Billboards.

Is new generation madness. especially in Port Harcourt. Other states are yet to join them. By their fruits you shall know them.

Pastor chris Oyakhilomi having understood how charming he looks and how well it will aid in  business church promotion, made the use of photo to charm the public into patronising worshiping with him.

No doubt most of what those pastors who run these private church business does, were strategies they learned from  Robert Greene's The 48 Laws of Power, especialy law 27 of the power book
Re: Pastors, Their Wives And Billboards. by Nobody: 4:59pm On Jul 15, 2009
@banom
What is law 27 of the power book?
Re: Pastors, Their Wives And Billboards. by banom(m): 5:04pm On Jul 15, 2009

Re: Pastors, Their Wives And Billboards. by banom(m): 5:11pm On Jul 15, 2009

Law 37 Create Compelling Spectacles

Law 7 Get others to do the Work for you, but Always Take the Credit

Law 34 Be Royal in your Own Fashion: Act like a King to be treated like one

Actualy Nigeria as a nation is doomed with the influx of well packaged con men in the religious sector, I think the best place one should put his faith is in himself.

It not all church Pastors that likes being displayed on their Bill Board

And on the issue of Jesus passport or not, Not one of this generation knows how Jesus looks like

A pastor even said in his books that Jesus was not looking good at the cross rather He looked so horrible because he took our Sins so that we might be clean and made beautiful. And u know sin is so dirty and ugly.

Pastors and all the rubbish they spew out, was he there at the cross to see how he looked  angry it is really nauseating when i read fabrications like this with twisted logic and the even more annoying thing is that they would always have muguns who believe any rubbish they say and would even quote the charlartans as an authority.

Perhaps dat pastor had a vison, na wa grin grin

Why all this rubbish all the time?
Re: Pastors, Their Wives And Billboards. by timmy7(m): 5:07pm On Jul 20, 2009
Why u sef rmb a dead and meaningless thread lyk this grin
Re: Pastors, Their Wives And Billboards. by Osas1723: 6:26pm On Jul 20, 2009
Its rubbish what most of the so called "pastors" do now a days, total
contradiction from scriptures.

Jesus had to be identified by one of his own disciple.

If it was today, we all know how easy it would be to identify them.
This men not only use Billboards, but all forms of mass media, from Radio to Internet.

Jesus lives and his coming someday for His people, then judgment!
Re: Pastors, Their Wives And Billboards. by segyemaro(m): 8:17pm On Jul 20, 2009
Banom,i think you are right for one to have believe on himself because if continue to follow all these so called men of God,we will all miss heaven.
Re: Pastors, Their Wives And Billboards. by donnie(m): 8:55pm On Jul 20, 2009
@Jagoon,
You dont know your bible and you are already into detecting charlatans?
"As many were astonied at thee; his visage was so marred more than any man, and his form more than the sons of men:" (Isaiah 52:14).
"But I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people." (Psalm 22:6).
This is the picture of our Lord in his suffering for us. However, make no mitakes about it. He was offered as a lamb but was raised the lion of the tribe of Judah. The day of the Lord is near. Repent of your evil speaking and desire to be filled with His precious Holy Spirit for he is your refuge in this day of great wickedness; he will keep your tongue from errror and your soul from destruction.
Re: Pastors, Their Wives And Billboards. by Mitchelin(m): 11:23pm On Jul 20, 2009
On the real,these men start out with lofty aims and laudable goals,but there is just something about fame and money, something so so powerful,as soon as they get some popularity out goes the meek demeanor and they start strutting around like peacocks, fellas I won't lie to you,I don't know, Christianity is really in shambles, directed to the spiritually minded xtian brothers, better get on your knees as the enemy is at the gate and he isn't a mohammedan,or whatever, he is your pastor,feeding you erroneous doctrines and you just gobble it up, I wonder!
