But the bishop just said he has never made any profit from his tapes and books. Are you saying he is lying?

Off course I said he doesn't touch money from his tapes and books. I believe he is not lying but we can't deny that he is blessed.

4 Million dollars = 1,440,000,000 Naira

Plus maintenance. Nonsense,. For sale or museum property.

Private Jets + Private Universities that their members can't afford...

if Jesus is on earth today will he build schools that the apostles can't afford for their kids?


I rest my case

So it now a sin for pastors to own private jet? Nonsense.

Prove from the Bible that it is not a sin to be a prodigal. Meanwhile, what are the philantrospist acts of those billionaire pastors?

This pastors are business men also

Oyedepo have the highest number of private primary schools in Nigeria and you think he can't afford private jet for only 4 million dollars

who gave you that info?? Highest number of private pri sch?

plessis:
what is a pastor doing with private Jet?....

the fact that you seem to be making sense does not make you right, i dont reply people like you but i have to this time.. Try what Oyedepo is doing and see if you can afford a keke!

CharleyBright:


Why are we too quick to defend what is wrong?
Is it the Pastor's money that is used to fuel and maintain the Private Jet?
Is the Pastor paying the millions of Naira demurrage for the Private jet from his pocket?
Can you swear the pastors are paying these monies from their pockets? If they are, they can as well show us the source of income and the tax clearance for the proceeds.
Can't the Pastors fly even Business Class?
Must they live ostensible lives and use church monies to maintain and service their luxurious lifestyles?
Christ admonish us Christians to live a Moderate (Modest) life. Owing and maintaining a private jet is far from a moderate life.
The bible says it will be easier for a Carmel to enter the eye of the needle than a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.
It is either the bible is lying about that OR most of these pastors living a "Larger than life" lifestyle will not get anywhere near Heaven.

How many chariots was Jesus Christ maintaining?

Who is the daft punk here ?
You expect the church with hundreds of station allover Africa to go book air ticket every other day. Use what God gave you sir

What are they doing with hundreds of stations? Please open your eyes to see the capitalist ideology that has been implemented in the church. It's simple. Opening hundreds of stations to collect 85% of all the money generated by the hundreds of stations. Is the Go Jesus Christ? What's the religious tourism for? At a point where all the churches have channels on cables.

Please don't try to justify it in any way. Cost far outweigh the benefits. If the Gos can't endure public flights then how are they serving God really?

I stopped going for any camp program almost 10years ago after attending Pastor Chris youth conference. The traffic was so mad that we got home by 4pm when we left the camp venue by 5am. Meanwhile, immediately after the program a chopper came to pick Pastor Chris.

These preachers are nothing buh hypocrites. They preach about enduring tribulations and long-suffering buh find every possible way to escape normal life stress by lavishing the scarce resources entrusted in their care.

chuksanambra:
Lagos State being the 5th largest economy in Africa has one Jet.

Oyedepo without a specific source of livelihood has 5 jets.

Damn!!!;

Hedonistically:


Another daft punk fouling up cyberspace with criminal inanity. You fools suffer from Stockholm Syndrome, obviously.

A pastor is 'busy" doing what exactly? Doing what that requires spending tens of millions of dollars buying private jets and additional millions annually to maintain the jets? Which problem is he solving by being "busy'", and more importantly, which problems is he NOT solving by wasting money on private jets?

You idiots need to read about the SACRIFICES of the colonial era missionaries who left their occupations, wealth, families, and everything in Europe to come to Africa to spread the Gospel. They came with only one agenda: to spread the Gospel, even with their own life savings.... with a determination to bear the discomforts to suffer in the African mosquito infested bushes in order to win souls for Christ!

Now, we have pastors who can't be inconvenienced by economy class in airlines because they are "busy". Busy preaching about tithes to fools. They have preaching engagements here and there so they must buy jets to meet up. What is the urgency of this rubbish? They are comparing themselves to normal worldly businessmen like Dangote and Adenuga who have made money the worldly way and SHOULD enjoy their money the worldly way! Besides Dangote has businesses worldwide and it shouldn't be a problem if he decided to buy a jet to meet up with urgent business meetings here and there.

What is URGENT about preaching nonsense? that these bastard pastors must spend billions of Naira on jets, to the detriment of millions of hungry and poor people they could have used that money to help?

No make me vex. Before thunder go strike your generation.

Bros leave those fools to their ignorance

You're a clown, why would a pastor, sorry con criminal own a private jet, how many horse Jesus use?

School built on church money. The Church is where he earns. It's nothing more than a shop or any other business outlet. So what is your point?

$4million dollars x 4private jets, keep one let's sell three and know how many poor lives it can help in this country

Nutase:
Because you cannot afford it you are now abusing pastors whom God has blessed. You curse in vain because God's blessings maketh rich and addeth no sorrow.

No brokenness, poverty and settling for the less will make you never know how to show love, you give when you have, why don't this men who are so called by God show the attitude of the God they serve, stay humble and show love, besides their reward is in heaven

Poverty is the root of all evil,
Being broke is the rules of this men
My Brother get Rich, show love to people and be good to your family

Thank me later

You are confused boy. The govt is suppose to ease vehicle traffic flow. The seed sown in church is suppose to handle logistics in that camp you attended. Pastor probably has pressing issues to handle and was right to leave ASAP. Hold your govt responsible if public system fails pastor can't sponsor the govt with seeds from church members who have already paid tax to the govt. At the point of spending the govt also tax the church cos what ever the church spends the money on is taxed, either labour or products or services.

cescky:

Baba pack well.

I'm sure no pastor is half as busy as Jesus was. He travelled by boats. Which one did he own? He trekked most of his journeys. The one time he rode on something, it was a donkey. That's like Adeboye or Oyedepo riding in a Keke napep. Do these men have the humility for such.

We should understand that whatever these men do, they're trying to portray Christ. all these extravagance is totally unnecessary. If they have everything here, what is their definition of a heavenly reward?

Annibel:

My dear, God is on Vacation since the seventh day

Charley boy need a private jet...
Mr Charley go and buy your own if you need it, because it is not a crime. it is a crime when u use the public fund to buy it

Your ignorance is apalling.
Church is not where he earns. People go to him directly to appreciate and honour him. You guys just make things up to justify ignorance, insecurity and hatred.

simijimi:
If Pastor waka for leg dem ko call am "poor as church rat".


The church is marching on and the gates of hell cannot prevail.

So the pastor is worried about what people would say? So he's called by God but has to show off to men? Isn't that inanity?

Was Jesus bothered they'd call him "poor"?!

efemena5050:
If not for anything pastors should be made to pay lumpsum tax most especially those that try to store up treasures here on earth.

I am jot ignorant.. Every of his school is built on Church contribution. None is personally the works of his sweat. So it's for his church.

Early Christian missionaries built schools and hospital and made it free. How many of them lived 1/10th of the extravagant life these GOs are living?!

Being a Christian leader is embodying Christ, and a major attribute of it is self denial and personal sacrifice.

Stop getting emotional when you don't know what is going on. The early missionaries didn't build highly equipped universities. The fact that the church is already subsidizing all her schools mean they are giving what they can. What you are angry about the those who scholarship didn't cover and had to pay the fees themselves. Did the early missionaries provide free education for all citizens ?

Agreed they didn't provide free scholarship for everyone, but how many free schools do these GOs have? The ones they have are more expensive than the average private school? Why? Greed.

I am not anywhere near emotional. People just need to agree that even though these men may have been called, their actions today are nothing like what true men in Christ do.

What does a normal human being need 2 Private Planes for? Is he busier than Christ was? How many means of transport did Jesus own? Even when He traveled on water, he had to use people's boats.

I can't understand why a pastor can't fly economy class. No matter his level of supposed anointing, he's a mortal man way lesser than Christ.

It's a sin if any of his member is found to be a needy person without much help. That is not christainity.

The fees is a function of standard. Like Oyedepo said in one of his interviews, the fees you pay is influenced by what you get and what you get is determined by the standard the visionaries who God establish the school through sets.

Let me use Covenant Uni as an example, every year the church gives scholarship to few hundred students (lets say 500), now the school authority can decide not admit any other student asides those on the church scholarship and claim to be offering totally free education. That's what you guys out there are angling for.

Another option is for the church to admit another 800 students yearly in addition to those on scholarship(free education). That's exactly what the church is doing and as expected the school charges these extra students for what they enjoy as students in accordance to the set standard, what they(ignoramus) publish on newspaper and internet is what these extra students pay to cover what they enjoy which in turn is a function of the set standard of the school.
Apart from this arrangement, the church gives special fund to the school yearly to help bring down the fee for the extra students. What winners as a church gives to CU yearly is in billions of Naira.

This is the best option as the church can't subsidize the schools for all and still maintain the set standard.
If the church was truly after the satisfaction of ignorant men and wanted to play along it could have instead establishing higher standard unis, used that money to start a scholarship scheme that targets public uni system. This way, instead of granting 500 Covenant uni students scholarship at around N700,000/annum, it will handle 5,000 public uni scholarship at N70,000/annum.


People just talk trash out of hatred, ignorance, and insecurity.
