Bill Gate is helping the sick, that's part of his calling. Oyedepo is buying private jet that's also part of his calling.

Kiss the truth...

Every man has a right to spend his money on whatever pleases him. Same goes to those who decided not to pay tithes to some churches.

If you guys continue to curse those who refuse to pay 'their own' tithe, critics will continue to curse pastors who spend 'their own' money to by private jet.

Gates also has a private jet, a yacht and a private Island...

Oyedepo helps the sick as well as less privileged...

So I'm guessing they have the same calling afterall...

Well these pastors don't.

But I don't expect you to agree with me.

You're obviously a member and you're playing it safe lest you incure the wrath of God. Well God gave you a brain to think.

Yes...that's why I'm open minded and not approaching it from a level of hate...cz I have a brain to see when someone is clearly blameless on a topic/issue.

@ topic.... I have no problem with these guys buying jets and living in luxury..... I have a problem with them misleading their people into believing they are a church of God when in fact they are Prosperity Churches....which has nothing to do with spirituality but everything to do with gathering earthly possessions.

wow...I'm learning.
Based on this writeup you're saying that the gathering of earthly possessions have nothing to do with spirituality, that is the more spiritual you are. the less wealthy you're expected to be.
If that is the case please can you educate further by telling us what our mission on earth is as Christians, what is the essence of been born on earth, when we are not suppose to amass Her possessions, why weren't our souls sent directly to heaven since the sole essence of our creation was to be spiritual?

Bros Bill Gate also has a jet. And if owning a jet hasn't stopped Bill gate's philanthropy then it shouldn't stop Oyedepo's own either.

Let me ask you a question. Who owns all the jets/plane in the Nigerian presidential fleet?

Well, It belongs to the Federal Republic of Nigeria and was purchased and is maintained by tax payers money. However does that mean any tax payer can ride in it? You can approach the Presidential plane sometime and let's see what would happen.

That is the same for Winners Chapel. The plane of the church was procured by funds of the church and maintained by funds of the church. Should that mean every winners member must ride in it?

Winners Chapel is a church with 6,000 churches globally, 12,000 pastors and over 200 educational institutions. The organization surely needs a jet...

Why not point out where it's stated as the responsibility of the Church?

You don't shift responsibilities...the church does the best it can in it's own way...you can't make it their duty like there isn't a government...

Or does the bible condole poor governance?


The church are the people, the people are Christians and the government also consist of Christians. Therefore, every Christian (the one in government & the one not in government must be able to help the poor).

Many churches are doing their best while some are just enriching the pastors. Even the Bible made it clear that amongst the real prophets, we have fake prophets if you don't agree with me argue with your Bible.

It's not a matter of grace bros.

It's simple.

All you need be is charismatic.

Open a church and have over 50 people (to start with) contribute their 10% to you every month and see how your life would turn around for the better.

If churches don't pay tithe and offering, these MOGs won't be this flamboyant. It's simple math.
There's ZERO sense in this post. Grow up.

Chai ppl said the church is already going broke because of freeze. But today the same church is currently building two universities at the same time, procuring a jet and still building a multi billion estate.

I'm sure they sold the N633WM because of the recent air mishap enroute Isreal - Cyprus. If one must use a jet, one should kukuma use a good one not a flying casket.

Anyway the church only owns ONE jet but has used five in totality. I.e sell and buy new one. Let's settle that before the propagators of fake news take the story to another level.


I do earnestly await the CU Teaching Hospital project, dunno why they are stalling on that one... Don't worry your haters are really going to poo on their bodies when you become the first Nigerian to fly(and employ) in multiple Nobel Laureates into the country in one week.

Is the church currently building new units?

Bishop Oyedepo announces arrival of brand new Church Aircraft

*All previously owned aircraft sold out.


*Says ‘What God cannot give me, let me never have it’.

By Leke Beecroft

Bishop Oyedepo today announced the arrival of a new aircraft bought by the Living Faith Church aka Winners’ Chapel. Previously the Church had sold out all her old aircraft including the helicopter and the Challenger 605 with registration, N633WM as stated earlier by Church Gist.

The Bishop had announced in April 1982 at a ‘powerhouse’ meeting held at the inception of the Church among other things that God had told him that the ministry will soon be on wings carrying the gospel to the nations of the world. All except one of the several points itemized during that meeting has seen the light of the day in the 37 year old Ministry. Since 1996 when the first Aircraft, a Hawker Siddeley 25 with registration 5N-WMA (World Mission Agency), was purchased at one hundred million naira (N100 million), Winners’ Chapel has used at least 5 different fixed wing aircraft and one helicopter while each of them as a tradition is always sold for an updated model as they begin to age.

The Church has strong presence in over 60 nations of the world and has invested in heavy Church and educational infrastructure particularly in Kenya, Ghana, DR Congo, Congo Brazzaville, Benin Republic, Zambia and in over 30 more African countries as well as UK, USA and many more across the 6 continents. The Bishop and his lieutenants visit all the Churches located in these nations annually in what is called ‘apostolic visits’ usually between the month of April and October. It will be recalled that in one of such hectic visits in 2004, his wife, Pastor Faith Oyedepo fell ill and though she’s back to her duties in the Church, except for few visitations to particular nations, she is excluded from the rigors of the annual apostolic visits.

Announcing on Sunday morning, Bishop Oyedepo who had unsuccessfully tried to join the Nigerian Airforce through the Nigerian Defence Academy in 1973 said to the congregants at the 50,000 capacity Faith Tabernacle during the first service:

‘Men and brethren we have a brand new Aircraft at the airport’. Shortly before that he had announced in his sermon about the virtues of love and giving as well as exhorting on the need to focus totally on God that:

‘What God cannot give me, let me never have it.
Where God cannot take me, let me never get there.
What God cannot do for me, let it remain undone.

The Bishop and his team have survived a number of aircraft mishaps, the last coming in 2017 which led to thanksgiving across the branches of the Church Worldwide.

Pastor's house na him dey fine pass
My people them dey stay for poor surroundings
Pastor's dress na him dey clean pass
E hard for my people for them to buy soap
Pastor na him them give respect pass
And them do bad bad bad bad bad bad things #FelaKuti

What an aphorism to describe present day church.
money making organizations!
Am a devoted Christian but our churches has degenerated through variegated denominational fragmentations which is aim towards money making and power tussle. I only worship JEHOVAH GOD alone. I believe if I pray to my God he will answer.

Be wary of these men of God in nowadays churches!

Oyedepo I don't want to insult you but you are going too far...

Why am I angry sef,, do I even know the actual "GOD" you serve?

If a young man like Davido believes he needs a Jet to adequately serve his fans globally; haba, don't you think a great Preacher like Bishop Oyedepo, heartily doing the work of God globally, and not just entertaining people around, ought to be allotted a Jet by his church to make his work more convenient at that old age of his? undecided
