Why Is Adeboye Seen As Spiritual Father And Why Not Kumuyi? by manosteel(m): 8:02pm On Aug 21, 2012 |
It is known fact that pastor W.F. Kumuyi had started preaching the gospel even before Pastor Adeboye became born again, even in age, Adeboye is the younger. But in Nigeria, many denominations and General Overseers see Pastor Enoch Adeboye as their spiritual father, these include people like Bishop David Oyedepo of Winners, Bishop Mike Okonkwo of TREM, Pastor Tunde Bakare, Pastor Matthew Ashimlowo of KICC, Pastor Oritsajafor to mention few. This is the role that was played by the Late Bishop Idahosa. So my question is why Adeboye, and why not Kumuyi? If Adeboye leave the scene today, do we have anyone who can step into this shoe? |

A carnal thread with carnal response from carnal Christians. Herein is your answer: "for you are still controlled by your sinful nature. You are jealous of one another and quarrel with each other. Doesn't that prove you are controlled by your sinful nature? Aren't you living like people of the world? When one of you says, "I am a follower of Paul," and another says, "I follow Apollos," aren't you acting just like people of the world? After all, who is Apollos? Who is Paul? We are only God's servants through whom you believed the Good News. Each of us did the work the Lord gave us. I planted the seed in your hearts, and Apollos watered it, but it was God who made it grow. It's not important who does the planting, or who does the watering. What's important is that God makes the seed grow. The one who plants and the one who waters work together with the same purpose. And both will be rewarded for their own hard work. For we are both God's workers. And you are God's field. You are God's building". 1 Cor. 3:3-9 NLT 5 Likes 2 Shares |

manosteel:because kumuyi started by abolishing television watching, introducing long skirts and no make up and hair making for the ladies, not dancing in church and many other rules which actually made church services very boring. Adeboye saw these flaws of kumuyi and decided to go the way of idahosa a little bit that's why he is having more spiritual sons and daughters But don't worry, kumuyi is having more spiritual sons and daughters than celestial and aladura because he has decided that his members should not walk bare footed on the road. Part of the church evolution thing 1 Like |

By not being so particular about physical dressing and welcoming invitation from churches whose doctrinal view of the Bible seems a bit different, he has postioned himself as an avalable father for many children. I want you to note that Kumuyi never sees being a national spiritual father as anything of importance. So no competition between them. Each one is satisfied in his own calling. So even if you force it on him he wouldn't manage the office well. It's not for Him. |

I believe openness to others is the key. I feel Kumuyi and the deeper life church in general was too rigid in associating with others from other denominations this made it impossible for young ministers to relate with. Seondly, not everyone has the grace/gifting to mentor others because fatherhood is not just by name as it takes time and effort 1 Like |
