Who Says Bishop David Oyedepo Is Not A Living Legend? by Onole: 10:52am On May 12, 2009
I recently heard Rhythm naming some Nigerians as living legends, why is Bishop david Oyedepo's name not there?
I trip to Canaanland - Ota will show anyone that this man is a legend, I heard his ministry is set to Open another university
called Landmark University soon after the order of Covenant University which is a pace setter in Private university administration.

Yes he is a living Legend, why can't he be a legend after extoting poor people and used their money to buy private jet, build university and enroll them and still collect school fees from them,he will still build another one with their money,

I wonder why they did not put him since his collegue Adeboye is there.

What are you saying?
I am sure you re not a Christian, can only Christian reply here ?
Bishop David Oyedepo is a father to the Christians, over the Years he has done so many things for Nigerians that are not announced.
He gives annual Scholarships running into Millions of Naira. This Year he gave Scholarships worth N50 Million Naira, and N300 Million naira as
Empowerment funds for those who need them, just to mention but a few.
If a Banker or an oil Magnet owns a jet who will talk? but when a pastor own one everyone will want to die.
What is our problem?

Living legends dont buy jets with poor peoples money,his covenant university why is it not free? Or at least affordable by the average poor nigerian. Legend my boot!
Legends are those who give their lives in service of humanity just take a look at mother theresa or mahatma ghandi (though not an xtian,oyedepo even with the backing of the seven heavens will not be as respected as him for generations to come)

Why in this world would a man of God crave for Titles on earth,,in christianity in Nigeria,if we are looking for living legend it should be Pastor W.F. Kumuyi.But christians are not actually meant to be craving for titles like this,,this is not what christian is all about.Why does the church needs the commendation or the recognition of the secular society except that there is something wrong somewhere.

I need the Opinion of broad minded people please, we are not comparing Men of God here ok? the men of God you talk about are all friends and they all appreciate themselves as labourers for God, while shallow minded people goes about saying all sort about what one Pastor is doing and the other is not, Can we be broad minded,

If you are not a shallow minded person why do you want to go crazy because your pastor is not made a living legend.The choice of ur words does not seem like a christian but a Title craving servant wanting his master to be recognised with Titles.You are just one those making God out of MEN.The thread itself is a function of shallowness and get it off here quickly.

Some people are best appreciated and celebrated as business men and entrepreneur.
But when it come to the issue of THE FAITH, scriptures must be obeyed.
Only those who live by the precept of the word are worth appreciating among believers.
PAUL SAID: NOTHING GIVES ME JOY THAN TO SEE THAT MY CHILDREN (BELIEVERS) WALK IN THE TRUTH.
HE ALSO GAVE THANKS TO GOD OVER THE LIVES OF XTIANS WHO ARE WALKING IN THE TRUTH AND MAINTAIN THEIR STRAIGHT WALK WITHOUT ANY COMPROMISE.
I'M SURE THAT THIS IS THE VIEW OF OUR LORD.
IF ANY BELIEVER IS WALKING IN THE TRUTH, WE SHOULD APPRECIATE HIS CONTRIBUTION AND THANK GOD ON HIS BEHALF.


BUT IN OUR DAYS, PEOPLE NO LONGER CONSIDER THE TRUTH OF GOD'S WORD IN MEASURING A MAN'S ACHIEVEMENTS.
THEY WOULD RATHER BOW TO WEALTH THAN TO HONOR GOD'S WORD. IT'S A PITY.
ANYWAY, BY THE TIME WE ALL APPEAR BEFORE THE LORD, WE'LL KNOW THE TRUE LEGENDS.
HOWEVER, THAT IS NOT TO SAY THAT WE CAN EXAMINE OURSELVES. WATCH THE FRUITS A MAN BEARS, THEN YOU TELL IF WE SHOULD APPRECIATE HIM OR NOT.

MORE SO, ANY SINCERE MAN OF GOD WOULD NOT SEEK FOR EARTHLY GLORY, SUCH AS BEING CALLED A LEGEND BY MERE MEN, MAJORITY OF THOSE WHO ARE NOT EVEN BELIEVERS. ALL GLORY AND HONOUR IN OUR LIVES MUST GO TO THE LORD.

@POSTER

Anyone that thinks bishop oyedepo and pastor Adeboye are extorting people should have a rethink because its not true.These men are blessed, Bishop david has no salary since 1986 september,God meets His needs because He is meeting the spiritual needs of the people.
