We have heard stories of pastors using diabolical means
to make their churches to flourish.


Sometime ago, a certain pastor identified as Stephen
Maduabuchi was allegedly caught trying to bury charm
ahead of his church's crusade.


Last year, a Christ Apostolic Church (CAC) pastor
identified as Moses Abiodun who was arrested for
burying something suspected to be human head inside
his church.


Several others have been caught in the same situation.
It is quite unfortunate that the church is full of deceit.
We live in world where there is so much deceit and
falsehood. The pastors want to impress their members
who have high expectations.


Nigerians love quick-fixes to everything and that is why
some pastors will go to any length to get powers even if
they have to dine with the devil just to please people.
You might be wondering why these men that claim to be
called sometimes decide to resort to using charms. The
reasons are:

1. To attract more members and keep them


More members mean more money. With more money,
they can afford to live comfortably. Some pastors will do
anything to attract a large crowd even if they have to sell
their souls to the devil.

2. For more money


An average popular church in Nigeria holds like four
services every Sunday and offerings are received in all
services. You can even give offerings online these days.
Some pastors are more interested in making money than
winning souls. Financial pledges have now become the
essence behind most sermons. These pastors know how
to use their sermons to coerce members into dropping
more money.


3. For fame


These days, some pastors are more interested in being
famous than doing the work of God. They do not know
where to draw the line between advancing the preacher
and advancing the gospel. They just want to drive flashy
cars, live in mansions and travel round the world not
caring whether their members are hungry.

4. To perform signs and wonders


Nigerians have become so blinded with miracles that
they do not see when things are not right. Most people
go to church for miracles and that is why you will see
thousands flocking those churches that perform all sorts
of miracles even raising the dead.
Since Nigerians are so religious and believe so much in
miracles, pastors have keyed in on this and some are
making millions from it. Some Nigerians can be so
gullible. How can someone ask you to pay millions for a
miracle, don’t you read your Bible? Have you found
anywhere in the Bible where Jesus asked for money
before he healed someone?


5. To meet up with expectations


Most people fail to realize that pastors are also humans.
They expect them to be able to solve all their problems,
heal all diseases and call down money from heaven. For
this reason, some pastors will seek diabolical means to
help them meet up with the expectations of their
members.

The title is unfair to a lot of genuine men of God who serve God in true righteousness and holiness.

Because they are called by God to be pastors and want to force destiny. But God does not play with his thing, which is why they are quickly unmasked.
