So, your index for measuring a true man of God is the number of people that stream their messages online,
really?

But he can still preach more than you.what can you do consistently and are so Good at that millions ofvpeople stream to hear you talk?till then keep shut

There are Biblical, new testament answers to those who see th truth an continue to partner with lies simply because they don't want their egos bruised and their fleshly lust questioned. The key word here DELUSION.

9 The coming of the lawless one is by the activity of Satan with all power and false signs and wonders,

10 and with all wicked deception for those who are perishing, because they refused to love the truth and so be saved.

11 Therefore God sends them a strong delusion, so that they may believe what is false,

12 in order that all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

(2 Thessalonians 2:1-12,

1 Now concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered together to him, we ask you, brothers, 2 not to be quickly shaken in mind or alarmed, either by a spirit or a spoken word, or a letter seeming to be from us, to the effect that the day of the Lord has come. 3 Let no one deceive you in any way. For that day will not come, unless the rebellion comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction, 4 who opposes and exalts himself against every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, proclaiming himself to be God. 5 Do you not remember that when I was still with you I told you these things? 6 And you know what is restraining him now so that he may be revealed in his time. 7 For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work. Only he who now restrains it will do so until he is out of the way. 8 And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will kill with the breath of his mouth and bring to nothing by the appearance of his coming. 9 The coming of the lawless one is by the activity of Satan with all power and false signs and wonders, 10 and with all wicked deception for those who are perishing, because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. 11 Therefore God sends them a strong delusion, so that they may believe what is false, 12 in order that all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness. (2 Thessalonians 2:1-12, ESV)

2 preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with complete patience and teaching.

3 For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions,

4 and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths. (2 Timothy 4:2-4, ESV)

This is a biblical prophecy that is in effect today. People will no longer endure sound teaching (Gospel truth) but would readily support an cling to whatever doctrine that fits like hand in glove with their ego, lusts and sinfulness.

Also, for those who are quick to jump unto the 'do not judge' wagon, notice the words used by Paul in describing the ingredients of preaching. Don't you see the words REBUKE and REPROVE? These are words associated with confrontating a wrong doing in order to bring about repentance. So I believe that rebuking a so called 'man of god' accuse of Adultery, fornication, manipulation, lies, intimidation and immorality is not out of place. And by the way, In this case, silence is not golden...,why? Let see what th Book of all books says:


3 But sexual immorality and all impurity or covetousness must not even be named among you, as is proper among saints.

4 Let there be no filthiness nor foolish talk nor crude joking, which are out of place, but instead let there be thanksgiving.

5 For you may be sure of this, that everyone who is sexually immoral or impure, or who is covetous (that is, an idolater), has no inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God.

6 Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience. 7 Therefore do not become partners with them;
8 for at one time you were darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light

9 (for the fruit of light is found in all that is good and right and true),

10 and try to discern what is pleasing to the Lord. 11 Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them.

12 For it is shameful even to speak of the things that they do in secret. 13 But when anything is exposed by the light, it becomes visible, (Ephesians 5:3-13, ESV)

Immorality should never be named among saints, especially those who shephard a church. That is why, such a person must strongly refute, repudiate an denounce the matter if he is wrongly accused and the world is watching. 'I will give a robust answer' is not enough answer. It is shameful.

Please do a research on the late Eddie Long, an American mega church preacher and prodigy to TD Jakes. He was accused by 3 teenage boys of Sodomy and manipulation. When confronted, he gave a silly answer like fatoyinbo's and subsequently settled the boys out of court. Crouch, swaggart, Johnson Suleiman, Mathew Ashimolowo, Kenneth Copland, TD Jakes, Oyedepo, Adeboye, Oyakhilome, Tb Joshua, Nike Adejumo. Etc. All accused of things that should not even b named among Saints.
