I wish the 70 years old age limit will also be applied to politics as well.

uzolexis:

So if a 70 year old is "too old" to lead a church, why do we have pple over 70 being President of our country.

They should apply this 70 yrs age limit to politics as well.

God2man:
Was it the Government that appointed them or God?

LordofNairaland:


However, it doesn't help your argument. No one said 70 meant "too old". Moreover, the 70 years as age of retirement as always been a church stipulation. That the law buttressed it doesn't mean the law finds a 70 year old man incapable of carrying out his administrative duties effectively. So all that stuff about extending it to politics is childish. If Adeboye retires today, he can still contest for the presidency because no one is disenfranchised based on age. You Christians need to grow up now!!!

nwamehn:


Interesting! I never knew all along. So, do u know other churches in Nigeria whose general overseers aren't the administrative heads respectively, just like BLW?

For instance, before a yoruba man will marry a woman he would have given her ''belle'' before the wedding. If not no wedding. And the wedding is a church wedding for that matter. Descrating the name of God and also ''defiling the marriage bed according to the Bible:

hmmmm......na wa oooo

mind you am not igbo neither am i from south east or south south.

Be warned.

Why are these men all yoruba?

Does it mean God is with the yorubas more than any other tribe?

What baffles me most is the level of tribalism displayed by this particular even inside church. In redeem for instance, 95% of their main pastors are from this same tribe.

I was at winners chapel some years back and i sat close to a woman from south west mumbling to herself that ''they started this church first before it became popular''. It could be she was not given a post in that church.

Why are the southwesterners tribalistic in place of work? Once they head a particular branch they will pack their brothers, as long as you can speak ''wa, ekaaro, mo fe jeun''. Abandoning others to do the dirty jobs.

And they claimed to pray yet commit all manners of atrocities before God.

The code was suspended by the Federal Government in same 2016 just weeks after being released. Are these people actually oblivious of that? Or just looking for excuses. If you wanna chage your leadership, then do it without bringing the code into it.

Same code would have revolutionised the various industries in Nigeria and not just the Not-for-profit.

One of the tennets of Christianity,as taught by Christ is to obey the earthly government while we are on earth.
Yes God appointed them,but they must yield to government regulations that are reasonable,because christ beseeched us to do so.
If I had my way,all churches and islamic organizations will be providing annual financial audit to the ministry of finance to account for how they spend the money donated to them by the masses.
In fact,religious organizations will be classified under separate "non-business commercial entities" and taxes would be introduced.They should be able to contribute to our national development,not only spiritually but financially.

jehova look down see what the world is turning into because of politics .....

Government need to take their evil eyes away from the church of God, they didn't appoint them a leader but God did....

This is truly the sign of end time devil ruling the world .... God please help us all

I think KICC too, pastor faseru is the Nigerian head. Since the church probably started first in Europe by Ashimolowo before he then thought his home country should have a solid administrative structure.

EVarn:
What will happen if the government start demanding an annual financial audit of all religious organizations?,you need to understand that the reason why many churches run roughshod and are financially reckless is because no one is regulating them,the church is not an earthly authority and therefore,it is subject to the government.

Thieves all of them.

Who ever thought of this initiative is a genius. God bless you Buhari. All these criminal men of God, hand will still touch them. And the part of the law i love most, is the part that said the church headship cannot be transferred directly to relatives, if not so Adeboye and that criminal in Warri called Orisetjafor would have transferred the Church to their kids and Wife respectfully.

Thief. Ole. Barawo. the TRUE GOD don catch these THIEVES.

And all the MUMU wey dey donate to these criminals, if una quote me here, na OGUN go send SCUD MISSILE come meet una.

God2man:

The Government is appointed by God, the Pastors are also appointed by God.

Where do we go from here?

Adeboye reportedly said, ‘‘At least, nobody can stop me from being a general overseer in other countries of the world.’’

donnie:

Has this theiving government finished regulating themselves? They want to regulate the one wey pass them. They should first deal with the greed and selfishness that characterises Nigerian politics before they think of the church.
They envy the church because of the prosperity they see. Unknown to them, the richest and most prosperous churches in Nigeria have the strictest and most disciplined financial policies, systems and personel. That is why God blesses them.

This is not APC or PDP. Rubbish!

AM SO HAPPY, COS SO MANY OF DEM WERE FOOLISH ENOUGH TO VOTE BUHARI. I WARNED SOME OF THEM BUT DEY DIDN'T LISTEN.

EVarn:
Indeed,that is why local parish pastors who do all the work are paid peanuts despite the billions of naira that are accrued into the coffers of these big churches every sunday,that is why the churches build big universities and charge fees that most of their common members cant afford.
Yes indeed,I can see how "financially disciplined" and benevolent they are.
So,if the government is corrupt,does that mean the church should go rogue too?

Alero3Arubi:


It seems to me that you don't like to be corrected, even when you discover your fault.

It would seem too that you are a die hard buhari fan.

Then again it would seem that you don't like Christians at all.

But who knows, you could just be exhibiting a double personality problem.

Well...

I hope I am wrong on all counts though...

#smh walks away.

donnie:


I have said the one I am sure of. I dont know about others even though I believe there are such ministries in Nigeria.

TRIED4NOW:
It's a good thing that Adeboye is going.


Adeboye has been fooling us enough.
thank God someone has finally provided proof that Adeboye is a false teacher

That is why you will never have such power.



So you think they are not contributing already? SMH.
If I think that my money i give in church will be used at goverment's discretion, I will not give. I've already paid my taxes.
