That woman, pastor's wife ,is not born again, she is proud. Pastor is an office ordained by God, I don't know where daddy has become an ordained office. She needs to re-visit the calvary. I pray she wont scatter her husband's ministry. 1 Like |

cbrass: From my own part its not even mandatory to call your pastors any special name but courtesy demands that you give honour to whom honor is due. This was an official visit, so why emphasis on informal "Daddish" accolades? |

tpia@:so because you belong to the school of thought that a pastor should be called to settle marital squabbles, then everyone should act in like manner? I for one, dont believe in third parties in marital issues not even the pastor. Back to topic, @op, ignore the pastors wife from what you've said she sounds like a very proud person, my pastors wife uses the term "ma" when addressing me even though she's well my senior. Thats humility. Jesus washed the feets of his apostles because he wanted them to adopt that virture. My advise, if things continue this way you leave the church. God hates arrogance and pride. 2 Likes |

oluwaisaac: I'm sincerely ashamed of dat arrogant 'Satan-natured' passtor's wife and all those that supported her evil anger. Even Jesus is called Jesus. Elijah is called a Prophet not daddy! gods and goddesses of men! Daddy is simply a term mostly used by Nigerians when referring to Elders. It has nothing to do with the Church hierachy. Atleast, its better than those tasking their members to call them The Lord's Bishop My Lord Bishop Rev. Profesor His Lord Eminence Pirate Most Pirate Bishop of the whole world Reverend Father Prophet (Dr.) Reverend Prof. (Ph.D, Texas) You guys should learn to live with a harmless term used even for your parents... I can't watch a little girl like Op call my dad by his name (abcd).. so why should I call my elders by their name? na me arrogant pass? |

End of story is: I (Acidosis) would rather call EVERYONE here - Daddy, than call any human being 'MY LORD BISHOP' Some of you here do call your Preachers such diety names...but of course 'hypocrisy', you all love to insult pentecostals.. thats where you derive your joy. smh! |
Re: The 'Daddy-Mummy Syndrome' In Nigerian Churches by Nobody: 7:26am On Dec 23, 2013 |
Acidosis: How is this scripture out of context? Lol, It seems you are one of those Pastors they call "Daddy"....well, enjoy na your time !! And FYI I belong to no Church....I'm a follower of Christ, I belong to the TRUE CHURCH which is the body of Christ.... Shikena! Ephesians 4:11-12 (KJV) And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: Smdh for Christians rejecting the titles approved by the Bible!!! |

If you are, you wouldnt be posting this kind of things of social media to allow people that have made up their minds that they wouldnt make heaven or people the prince of this world has blinds their eyes and sealed their hearts from the truth to be making comments against the Church of God.

biomedixexcel: @OP I want to tell you that you should ask for forgiveness for coming to public to raise the issue. This is your pastor for God's sake! The woman has said her own and I know she won't harbour any grudges after she had poured out her heart. If you had been in that woman's shoes, u would have done more than that. Going public showed how humbled you are A pastor is not just ordinary person no matter how small he is, you need to honour him in every ramifications. You probably showed how far you're on fellowship with Christ. You are probably seeing the pastor cos of what you want. People older than you in the church might have been calling her daddy but the woman recognised the arrogant in you or quickly find out you behaved like a stranger. YOU ARE A WIFE TO BE AND MY ADVICE FOR YOU IS TO BE HUMBLE SO THAT THIS WILL NOT HAUNT YOU WHEN YOU RELATE WITH YOUR IN-LAWS!Heheheheheh...i hope d Op will read this... Don't worry,someone will tag u as tpia soon. |

Mintayo: If you were a pastor Mintayo and your full names are Mintayo abc, I see nothing wrong in calling you pastor Mintayo abc. As for my inlwas, you should know that marriage is the coming together of two families. His family automatically becomes my family and all due respect will be accorded them. The Bible was clear enough on that regarding marriage. As a christian, you are the body of Christ not and the "body" of your pastor. However if you find it Interesting calling your pastor daddy, to each one his own. 6 Likes |

oluwaisaac: I'm sincerely ashamed of dat arrogant 'Satan-natured' passtor's wife and all those that supported her evil anger. Even Jesus is called Jesus. Elijah is called a Prophet not daddy! gods and goddesses of men! I am just "bothered" by the NATURE of most Pastor's wife! For starters, lets assume the Pastor was "called" by God to "serve Him". That is (or should be) the basis of any religious leadership role. Now, the Pastor decides he loves a woman and married her. She becomes his wife, just like l marry my own wife. I know we dont need to argue that if l am say a CEO of a company or say l am a Colonel in the Nigerian Army or Bill Gates, it does not CONFER the same title, rights and privileges on my wife in any way. (except she is Madam Umbrerella sha ) How come that, when a husband is "called" and he becomes a Pastor, the wife simply assumes she is the "Assistant Pastor" (or even a bigger Pastor than the husband himself!) so much so she arrogates and confer authority to herself? Who called her? God? Her husband or the Devil? What is wrong with all these silly, pastor's wife sef? In most cases, the husband (Pastor) who was called and ordained, may be a very meek person but their wives are such terrible, arrogant, vindictive, gossiping and maligning brood of vipers ...............and at times, l begin to wonder if most Pastor's wife are not a punishment to their husbands, .....for their "religious" shenanigans? I know a Pastor who, for the sake of embarrassment and not to scatter In most cases, the Pastor's wife is A NOBODY .....minus the authority wielded by her husband as a Pastor", but she is so power-hungry and attention-seeking that she will openly demand for such authority and servitude. These silly women just "ride" on their husbands position since people tend to "shake and tremble" for their Pastor ....why not the wife as well? Just imagine a woman of say thirty five years, because she is a Pastor's wife, she expects a man old enough to be her father to call her Mummy! Anyway, as for me, whether Pastor himself or his wife, if they dare call-me out on this "Daddy/Mummy issue, l will show them pepper! In fact, l will ask them that if they are dumb enough not to know the exact number of children they sired by themselves, or do l look stewpid to them, not to know my own parents! But we must put the blame squarely at the foot of the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Adeboye (RCCG, l am a member by the way), They started this nonsense of Daddy G.O. and Mummy G.O! Now it has gotten out of hand, every self-appointed Pastor wants to be worshipped and called daddy!. Daddy my black arze.......... Even Jesus, despite his awesome power, was not called "Daddy", He was simply called Jesus! Madt women! Lastpage! 6 Likes |

I pray religion will not finish this country. I believe so called Men of God should emulate the prophets of the past. Nigerian pastors have not been successful to bring positive moral change to the country, yet they travel around the world in private jets to where people are morally upright. In my own opinion, they are just enjoying life.. In my own opinion, true religion leaders are humble and not extravagant. All what they have in their mind is heaven and not this is VANITY!!!!!!!! 1 Like |

Back to topic,The op has all the rights to communicate this immoral vice.HUMILITY should be one of the characters a leader MUST have.Jesus washed his disciples feet to teach us that.The pastor's wife deserves to be lectured intensively on the need to see every other persons as equal,despite her husband's position in the church. @op,once again I must commend you for you humility cos where she has failed to promote it,you exalted that grace because if na me,after allowing her talk her rubbish finish,then my own advice go start,and if she insists,the next few words that wud come out of my mouth wud be unbelievable!!!!Rubbish!Arant nonsense! 1 Like |

doubleDx: You don't seem to get my point. We all know the scripture and the verse you quoted, even though most people on this thread use some non-biblical titles while referring to their preachers. As you already know, only pentecostals use those titles you listed. Others derived and coined theirs by themselves and for themselves, YET they search for every opportunity to pull down a harmless title. Why can't OP tell us the age of her Pastor and lets weigh this with maturity and sense. Where I schooled, we have lecturers with names like (Mr *****), but because of their age, courtesy demands that we show them some level of respect. We mostly call them 'ose' - meaning Daddy, Papa. You see bro, there is absolutely nothing wrong in calling your Pastor Daddy. Maybe the wife was only trying to act like a Mother and treat her as though she was a daughter. There is no gainsaying the fact some people have idolised that word 'papa & daddy' e.g the always trying too hard campus fellowship dunces. Nevertheless, I still believe there are people who need to be called DADDY, atleast for the AGE & THE SPIRITUAL FATHER-DAUGHTER RELATIONSHIP. _______________________________ Apologies to OP for attacking her initially. 2 Likes |
