Interesting read. When you blindly defend anyone the person remains resolute in error.

Just like u blindly defend buhari.

Pastors are meant to destroy spiritualism.

Men of Thieves... cheesy cheesy cheesy
Their god is their mentor. See what he commanded one of his worshippers:

Hosea 1:2
2 When the Lord began to speak through Hosea, the Lord said to him, “Go, marry a prostitute.

Suleiman should not be blamed for proposing marriage to a prostitute. Who knows maybe it's Yahweh who also asked him to do so as he told Hosea in those days cheesy

To err is human and to forgive is divine. Pastors whether fake or genuine are serving a bigger purpose than what we see as their weaknesses. What I know is that Christians must be more united than ever before in spite of imperfections. Otherwise, Nigeria would soon turn to an Islamic country. Jihad as an agenda is still very much on d table of some ,either through violence like boko haram or through total control of state powers. He who has ears let him hear.!

APOSTLE SULEIMAN

The outspoken Apostle has had a couple of controversies before now. His infamous prophecy on the return of the then incumbent President, Goodluck Jonathan which turned out to be a huge miss did not see the man of God tender an apology to members of his church and Nigerians alike.

His recent scandal which has generated some much controversies have been perceived to be political for speaking against Fulani Herdsmen. I could remember supporting him during the outburst but then, it does not take away the fact that something indeed happened with the lady in question, particularly contact.

While Christians are staunchly claiming the gate of hell will not stand against the church (I say amen), Apostle seems to be getting lost in the web of his responses to the issues raised by the young 'stripper'.

According to the pastor;

1. The lady is a stripper. My question, 'how did you know she is one and where did you meet her to confirm this?'

2. I was only trying to assist her get her life together. My question,' there is nothing wrong is sending thousands of Dollars to someone with the intent of helping them, but why would you ask that she be arrested, claiming she has links with a terror group in Nigeria?'

Interestingly, the Apostle has filed a petition, asking that he be paid a jaw breaking amount as damages when he is yet to tackle any of the issues raised by the lost soul cum stripper.

The stripper in question has mentioned the name of one of the ladies the pastor rolls with and coincidentally, the actress in question once posed with the Pastor's vehicle. So many unanswered questions but the last thing right now is saying El rufai and the North is solely behind this.

We shall wait as more of the mystery unravels on this.

Lalasticlala


What I see is gross misinformation or possibly an attempt at deception from you on the above. If you don't know what Apostle Suleiman has said over and over again, then go back and read his statements before coming here to ask a set of stupid questions that have already been answered severally by the man you are accusing.

Your logic is totally out of point and is very lame. It's just like you asking us to start rejecting 1000Naira notes simply because you discovered some people have been circulating counterfeit notes. You cannot tell me to stop defending pastors entirely ust because you think you encountered some that you judge to be fake. That there are fake pastors does not mean there are no geniune ones, and condemning the genuine ones with the fake can be likened to a miscarriage of justice. As a matter of fact, fake pastors exist only because there are already genuine ones in existence somewhere. A sensible person should be interested in finding out who the real ones are instead of condemning the genuine with the fakes. Do you know why fraudsters have never attempted fooling people with 2000Naira note? It is simply because there is no geniune 2000Naira note in existence anywhere, so there can't be a fake one. That is exactly the case with pastors! So just as I will not sit in my house and conclude that all Yourba men are lazy simply because I have met 10 lazy Yourba men, that is the same way I cannot conclude all pastors are fake just because I've seen some among them who are fake. And lastly, the fact that you think some pastors are fake does not necessarily mean it's true, some of the pastors you have judged and condemned may be innocent.

When staunchly defend pastors, we;

1. Reinforce their actions, either good or bad.
2. Prove that indeed we have been brainwashed and are blind.
3. Forget that the pastor is a man which is capable of falling or making mistakes.
4. Show that we are incapable of thinking for ourselves since the Word of God is far from our reach.
5. We unconsciously join such pastor by driving out young believers.
6. Show that we don't follow God and study His Word but the Pastor.
7. We unconsciously give room for cult followership rather than the truth.

Beautiful write up Sanchez!
But as far as I am concerned... NIGERIANS dont believe in GOD! They believe in their Pastors Period! If CHRIST returns, and their Pastor says "That is not Christ" and he Points to a GOAT and says "that's him Manifesting" Nigerians will believe Period! And you ask me why? Simple, Nigerians don't follow whats on the Scriptures, they don't even read it.... They just wait for their Pastors to tell them whatever and they believe. We are now in the Dispensation of "PASTOR WORSHIP" And the real reason behind all this is MONEY! MONEY! MONEY! .... Our people are Obssesed with Money and they believe their Pastor-gods will help them get that Money and so they worship their Pastors, Give them offerings and Tithe but the most crazy part of this is, they have been doing this for a long time without any Results. Tell me why on Earth will a Pastor be Preaching PROSPERITY and How to be Blessed with Money! In the Country where I recide, they are turning Huge Churches to Offices cos nobody goes to Church anymore.. Yet they live better lives than Nigerians. Church should be about teaching us about 1. How to be kind to each others 2. Be our brothers keepers 3.Getting Closer to God 4. Holiness 5. Salvation... MONEY SHOULD NEVER BE PART OF THIS! You learn how to be a business man on your own.. But most of Nigerian Pastors, who are actually Sharp Business Men, making Money off guilible people are taking Nigerians away from the ways of GOD so that they will keep worshipping them. I have seen a Couple of Real Nigerian Pastors and they don't Talk about Money!....Their Passion is how to actually get people Closer to God and not this Money Crap! Anyway, we shouldnt bother with all these cos Nigerians enjoy it and Love being Slaves to their Pastors so why disturb tnem? Abeg make dem carry go jare!
