This question is really really dumb if you ask me.. It's more like you were idle and decided to come up with this to make yourself busy.
As everyone should know.. Christianity simply means living like christ.. What has just posting pictures of a pastor got to do with "living like jesus christ"

My exact response.

Which kain mumu question bi dis?. Being a Christian is a way of life that clearly identify a person. The apostles were called Christians not because of the picture of Juses hanging around the neck but the people observed them to be followers of Christ. The picture of ur pastor will not save you from the fire of he'll if you are not following the teaching of Christian.

Having the Picture of a Pastor on your DP does not make you a Christian or Born again.

Being Born by a Pastor, Bishop or Born Again Father/ Mother does not make you a Christian...

Being born inside the Church does not make u a Christian..

Being a Gospel musician or singing in the Choir does not make you a Christian

Being called a Pastor, Prayer warrior and all that does not make you a Christian.

Bearing names like Mary, Peter, Jacob, Daniel or even JESUS does not make us Christians

The Apostle were first called Christians in Antioch because the people saw the Life of JESUS Christ in them. They were Christ like.
Acts 11.

A Christian is not a Sinner and a Sinner not a Christian ( 1John 3:8-9)
Until we have a Personal Genuie Encounter with JESUS Christ and begin to live according to HIS Word ( The Bible). This is what makes us Heaven Bound. This is what makes us Christians.

All the go to Lords chosen you are shouting up and down does it make you a christian Instead of you to point people to Jesus you will be directing them to Lords chosen for deliverance etc......

You better start preaching Jesus Christ and stop this your hypocrisy....From a beloveth brother, I rise

Posting pictures of Messi and Ronaldo doesnt make you a footballer ...

Spot on

@Odewaleadesoye:

Thanks for sharing your "question"

The short answer would be "NO"

However, what's wrong with sharing pics of people you admire on your personal profile?

Yes, the men of GOD are just that: MEN

They are NOT perfect. They are NOT the Lord Jesus Christ.

(Expecting perfection from flawed mortals like you is being delusional at best)

Who knows who may view these men's pics and have a thought towards the GOD they represent (or even claim to represent).

Yes, posting men's pics won't make you a Christian, but could start conversations that could make others - and even you - turn to Christ

Thanks again for sharing

First, before calling them ‘men of God,’ are all they preach of God?

Is Trinity, Immortality of the soul, hell fire, and karma.. among others, of God?


Their generic marketing tools: tithe, offerings, seed-sowing, miracles and magic, prosperity... are they of God?



These are gods of men!

This question should not even be asked at first. Don’t you know that indirectly you are idolizing them and at the end of it all, those men of God u are posting are mere mortals and will all return to their maker one day. What will now be your lot? They are human beings like us and the funny thing is that you might even be better than them before GOD.

Remember “those that know their GOD shall be strong and they shall do exploits “. Not those that know their men of GOD.
Shalom

It's okay to respect them but what makes someone a Christian is when they are led by the Holy Spirit and bear fruits that make them recognizable as Christians
And you respect these men of god because you are certain they are led by the Spirit of God? Care to explain to us how you know that they are? undecided

We are all men of God.
Nobody is superior, not even your pastor or daddy GO or GO daddy!
But in the Kingdom of God, there are no men or women , instead there are only children of God and Jesus Christ is the only Shepherd over them all. undecided

No, what I defined there is any true child of God, whether they have pastoral calling or not.

But no True child of God has a "pastoral" calling - see Ezekiel 34 vs 1-16 , and John 10 vs 1-16 for detail. undecided

Can any true child of God serve or worship God from "under" a one that God has said He is against? undecided
