I saw a thread hit frontpage https://www.nairaland.com/4062678/deeper-life-bible-church-cult#60584621 and I decided to write this.

I have known Deeper Life Bible Church, and it is over twenty years. Tho I don’t often attend church services that much due to hustle on Sunday, but I have some Facts to make known to make.

Do you want to hear things that people won’t tell you about deeper life bible church? Sit tight and listen.

Pastor W.F. Kumuyi has corrected some of his mistakes in the past as regards doctrine

In a bid to maintain strict discipline during the early days of the church, a lot of strict doctrines were introduced. These doctrines didn’t come with consequences like people portrayed, but were just preventive measures to some common sins.
The television was banned, not because it was bad, but because it would give room for the devil to corrupt the mind.

“If your right hand causes you to stumble, cut it off, and throw it away from you.” Matthew 5: 30.

Right now the Television is now used to transmit the pastor’s message all over the world. He realized that God gave humans the spirit of “FREE WILL” and he urged members to make use of it the right way.

Pastor Kumuyi doesn’t have a personal Bank Account

It might interest you to know that the General Overseer of Deeper Life Bible Church does not have his own personal bank account. He is under the church budget, and likewise other full-time pastors. He feeding, dressing, logistics is budgeted monthly by the church. He has no personal property, investments, and all he has is owned by the church.

One of the Criteria to become a full-time pastor is age
If you haven’t reached the age to retire from active government service, you can never become a full-time pastor in Deeper Life Bible church. Full-time pastors serve as State Coordinators, Regional Overseers, and of cause the General Overseer. Other positions are occupied by pastors who are still working and are not under the church financial budget.


Several Church Laws have been abolished by the General Overseer
In his recent messages, Pastor W.F. Kumuyi has preached against the enforcement of church laws that have no root in the Bible. Popular examples remain the Turban being worn in the church, the financial capabilities of a man before he gets married, and many other relating to technological advancements.
In many of his recent messages, he has preached against church leaders enforcing laws on members that would force them to drop their faith. His main focus was on the marriage committee of the church.

Holiness and Salvation is preached every Sunday
If you aren’t comfortable with someone preaching to you about Holiness, Salvation, Repentance, Restitution every Sunday, then don’t bother coming to church. That is the foundation of the church doctrine, and it will never change.

Deeper Life doesn’t sing and dance on Sundays because…
If you have been wondering why the church service on Sundays doesn’t come with dancing and singing, the answer is simple.
“It will weaken the body; make people fall asleep and tired when the real message about going to heaven is about being preached. We have a day to praise God for singing and praises, and that is during the Thursday revival service” Pastor W.F. Kumuyi explaining to BBC World.

Financial Prosperity is never the Topic of any Message
No pastor would come up the pulpit to preach about financial prosperity as a Sunday Message. The church focuses on “Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and every other thing shall be added unto you”

Tithes and offering are collected and sent to the headquarters
Once it gets to the Church headquarters, it is redistributed to various states for the maintenance of churches in the state. If any Church project needs to be carried out, the amount is split according to the capability of members of the churches inside the same country.
No matter how long it takes to get the donations, the church will never seek donations from outside the church. That was the reason it took the church 5 years to complete the headquarters at Gbagada.

Finally, Laying of hands is not allowed in the Church

Pastors pray from their pulpit and miracle happens. "It doesn't matter if you are close or not to a sick person. God is still in the habit of answering the prayers of the righteous" Pastor W.F. Kumuyi.

Ask me any question and I will give you unbiased answers.

when I said tgis some time ago somebody was abusing me on Nairaland. How e b now? Kumuyi has apologised for some errors In d past and I think adeboye and oyedepo should also do so. I am not against giving to God's work, but forcing pple to give under the threat of a curse is what I hate. Kudos to kumuyi for his humility.

As much as they had God's laws, we also have doctrines like the early apostles did.

When Anaias were killed because they his part of their possession, was it a direct message from God.

And more also, nobody was forced to adhere. People who couldn't keep up left.

Tunde Bakare
Lazarus Mouka

And many others were members of deeper life bible church


We not facing on Sundays, does it make any man righteous?

It is a church law that helps shapes a church


But the main message is "Repent and believe the gospel"

Lazarus Muoka wasn't a member of deeper life Oga, and Muoka's church preaches holiness too if not more....

Can i ask what is the opinion on wearing of jeans and keeping mustache in this ministry

Now, the case of jeans is Actually rational....
If you Are to wear jeans (as a guy).... Then moderation is to be Applied... Wearing of Razz or stressed jeans or any form of jeans which could be of distraction to other members is allowed..... And you aren't expected to wear jeans that portrays you as a hipster or all these trappers or rappers.

----

Now as for mustache... Keeping of a mustache is highly prohibited for workerS and pastors in the church...
As for the members, if you wanna keep ....Keep it....but it should be always low...
Evem in the professional world, mustache isn't that encouraged except for arabs..

Simplicity in order to edify oneself and others is the key answer

I think you should use the Military force, Corporate guys, as examples. Wearing beards isn't bad... but workers are advised not to carry beards.

It is a criterion if you wana serve. If you feel you can't, then you allow those that can to serve.

Thanks for your input.

The voice in your head is telling you all these.

Everything a pastor tell members must be confirmed by the bible if it has no biblical basis.....you have every right to reject it........no pastor is perfect all church doctrines must be based on the bible.....when pastor see that people are crosschecking church doctrines and rules from bible the pastor will be careful in setting up doctrines..........pastor must be made to know everything they preach will be crosschecked from bible before members follow

Sadly most churches and pastors think the GO word is final. Accept or leave but don't ask questions or disagree

Thanks for telling me, but I haven't seen.

Therefore, you see that wearing beards isn't bad, but for appearance sake and others, some places don't allow it.

The GO's word is only taken into consideration by workers of the church.

Other members are free to do what they like without anyone talking to them. Only the workers of the church are mandated to keep up with instructions.
