What part of beating the Jesus out of someone is in your bible. Can't imagine going into a "church" and someone hits me in the name of their god. It will not end well for them. I will hit them with everything I have including my Bible. Hopefully I carry my dad's oversize Bible that day

otipoju: Dominic- let it be clear that I have nothing against you and I told you to type what you did to ascertain how convinced you were about the veracity of what you saw!

Never the less I put it to you that nowhere in CCC will service begin by 9am.if a service needs to be abridged, it is the shorter hymns that will be selected, the sermoner given say 30mins to preach instead of the customary one hour and the items brought for thanksgiving collected just once instead of the customary 3 times.

Also if you had said that it was an "Amure" that is the clothe with fringes that some us tie around their loins,that was used we may understand but for you to say that some one hit another person with a cane at a thanksgiving service which is an atmosphere of merriment does not add up to the celestial mind.

The one where you said that the prophet was sorrounded by females dancing around him is not a celestial practice because in Church males and females sit separately with a wide gap in the middle!!!

So ask your Mum well which of the white garment churches she attends and the name of the parish.

Stay blessed Dominic. May God's peace be upon you and may he direct you in the right path.

ajosegabriel: may the God of oshoffa increase your knowledge bro/sir...I need to know your parish cos you ve clarified everything....

otipoju: @ajosegabriel. I was born and bred a Celestian.I was christened at Wasimi parish in maryland and currently attend Ayilara parish, Surulere.

I went to deeper life whenever I was on holidays at granny's place!

Also attended meetings at the Kingdom hall ofJehovah witness with my aunt for a while.

I attended masses and went for catechesim at a catholic missionary school during between JSS 1-3 at Obalende lagos.I can still sing quite a number of catholic hymns and particularly enjoyed their Corpus Christi celebrations.

Between 1998 and 2000 I attended Household of God before I gained admission to study Religion at O.A.U

It was at O.A.U that I discovered the beauty of CCC after I had learnt to look at religious phenomena with scholarly eyes.

During Service year it was ECWA in Kano,After service in 2007,it was Christ Embassy where after foundation school the Pastor of the branch in Surulere wanted me to join the ministry part time with a promise to get me a good job at a Telecomms outfit.I politely declined.

In between all of these I have attended Redeemed ,CAC and Foursquare gospel church services with my friends.

I felt I had seen enough and satisfied my curiosity and so became regular at CCC Ayilara Parish and Jehovah has been faithful ever since.

When some of these people talk about what they do not understand, I try to say the little I can and continue with my life. Remember " Awon ti ofe lo pe, Awon to pe lo yan, Awon to yan lo she logo" - not everyone is called to be a celestian it is a tough act to follow.

Please let no Celestian bandy words with anyone on this site or take their insults too personal. Do we do advert to invite anybody? No! Do we hire PR experts to manage our reputation by highlighting our miracles/achievements or doing damage limitation on our scandals. Do we budget and spend millions to enhance visibility on the mass media to build our brand ? No!

Nevertheless When these people see the one wey pass dem, they always know where to find us! Many of our members will say " I never imagined that I could be a celestian but thank God for this church." Don't you hear it often?

Please leave them to say what they wish. If Jehovah calls them, they will come !!!

There's nothing strange about it. He was a man of God. Just like in the bible, there is "the God of Moses", "the God of Abraham", "the God of David", etc.

Sanchez01: Abegi jare, the church itself has been bastardized, abused and reformed by wolves with chameleon clothing. *I won't say anything further* ONE QUESTION ABEG: Can anyone cite a passage in the scriptures where a deliverance session was performed using a cane or weapon so as to chase the 'baddo' in a man?

haibe:

yes the bible is God's word and so I can be sure but did the bible approve of "the God of oshoffa" too?

Lil'knight:

Celestial is an heavenly created church, d word itself means heavenly!!!
Jst lyk oda churches, celestial is nt created by an individual or any human, it spiritually descended to earth and since den it has been spreading worldwide. What makes pple criticize d church is ntn buh simply because of d doctrine, and dis isn't right cos d lyks of oda churches lyk catholic, anglican do av....comment reserved
