It is common these days to see people making mockery of men of God due to one thing or the other. If you know the Bible; even when a man of God err, it is not appropriate for people to speak ill of them. Rather pray for them and leave them to God for judgement.
We can all learn from 2 Kings 2:23-25. Have a blessed Sunday.

Touch not my anointed and do my prophets no harm...Psalm 105:15



But they kept mocking the messengers of God, despising his words and scoffing at his prophets, until the wrath of the LORD rose against his people, until there was no remedy. 2 Chronicles 36:16


FTC! Happy Sunday folks

I'm not here to defend anyone but if I am you I would rather keep quiet when such things happen. Supposing it is actually true you get a curse by criticising men of God. Don't c wait to experience it before you know. It may even be your problem now but you don't know. Miriam for leprosy by criticising MOSES the servant of God

Op, I will try and understand what you r trying to say but lemme drop a few lines:

this is referring to real men of God that were called not god of men that called themselves right? I hate to cram so I might not know the exact bible verse but I’m sure the same Bible also said there would be a lot of fake pastors as the world comes to a near end.

Always be objective in your opinion, it’s like telling me I should respect and not speak ill of Revd King, a confirmed murderer.

Nor vex me this Sunday morning oh

Total bullshit. That's why this nation is where it is now. Let me see any so called man of God doing something stupid and see if I won't speak every ill I can think of. I'm sure if your pastor sleeps with your wife you'll close your mouth..

Even a clear cut criminal who claims to be a man of God, should only be prayed for and not called out?

Go preach that in the West that brought Christianity to us and see if you would not be recommended for a mental check up.

Lol. Some people study the Bible with their anus. Are you saying if a man of God rapes your daughter, or if a pastor who happens to be a lecturer sleeps with his female students for marks, we should not speak ill against them? Because they "men of God"?
Or if they commit a crime, they police should not arrest and prosecute them or the society should overlook their flaws?

sad No true man or even child of God should be bothered. But if you mess up as a minister or even someone known to be active in any church, people must speak. The OAU professor is an ordained Reverend in Anglican...He submitted himself to serious verbal ridicule when he was exposed as an academic terror. Mind you, real men of God called by God are few.

Any pastor richer than his congregation is not of God...

He only used his congregation to emass earthly belongings....

Jesus Christ made us know that our reward is in heaven... Our mansions is in our Father's house
He went about doing good and healing the sick while on earth.... He had no donkey or pin to his name..
Jesus Christ never took tithe from anyone

Pentecostalism is the bane of Christain spiritual growth... It's just after material wealth for the pastors..

It will continue to make the people poor

Pls who is this on Sunday morning for God sake? Why do you want people to get angry unnecessary and offend God this Sunday morning with annoying post? Who the hell are you?

And pls who are the men of God

Pls can you mention the name of one men or man of God you know and proof it both physical and spiritual beyond doubt

And pls show me the sign or proof or when or where did God spoke and stand in the sky and said so and so pastor is my man

Pls I beg you never in your life quote the text in the bible that says *touch not my annointing* if you qoute that God will send fire on your head this morning because your so called men of god or men of beast are not Elijah nor Moses neither John the Baptist because during biblical era there was not car but there are donkeys and horses then you will tell me how many donkeys or horses Elijah, Elisha, Moses, John the Baptist etc has compare to what your men of beast has today.

Your men of beast bully, exhort money, intimidate members with tithe, seed sowing, first fruit just to build mansion and buy private jet, fake miracle, belong to occult, using charm to command, *homage paying* etc pls i beg you let people just go to church to serve God peacefully this morning.

This topic is off topic and wrong topic for Sunday morning.

It's simple. God should speak from the sky to show us the true men of God and we won't speak against them.
I remember when one of my Pastors was sleeping with choir members and I spoke against it, dumb followers still attacked me that I should not have spoken against him and the act.
Religion is a curse to the world and it has closed the minds of the followers that they do not use their sense of reasoning again except to listen to their pastors.

Re: Why You Must Not Speak Ill Of Men Of God by sakaguchi(m): 8:25am On May 06, 2018
OK, let's see what Jesus said of the men of God during His time

Matthew 23


23 Then Jesus said to the crowds and to his disciples: 2 “The teachers of the law and the Pharisees sit in Moses’ seat. 3 So you must be careful to do everything they tell you. But do not do what they do, for they do not practice what they preach. 4 They tie up heavy, cumbersome loads and put them on other people’s shoulders, but they themselves are not willing to lift a finger to move them.

5 “Everything they do is done for people to see: They make their phylacteries[a] wide and the tassels on their garments long; 6 they love the place of honor at banquets and the most important seats in the synagogues; 7 they love to be greeted with respect in the marketplaces and to be called ‘Rabbi’ by others.

8 “But you are not to be called ‘Rabbi,’ for you have one Teacher, and you are all brothers. 9 And do not call anyone on earth ‘father,’ for you have one Father, and he is in heaven. 10 Nor are you to be called instructors, for you have one Instructor, the Messiah. 11 The greatest among you will be your servant. 12 For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.


13 “Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You shut the door of the kingdom of heaven in people’s faces. You yourselves do not enter, nor will you let those enter who are trying to. [14] [b]

15 “Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You travel over land and sea to win a single convert, and when you have succeeded, you make them twice as much a child of hell as you are.

16 “Woe to you, blind guides! You say, ‘If anyone swears by the temple, it means nothing; but anyone who swears by the gold of the temple is bound by that oath.’ 17 You blind fools! Which is greater: the gold, or the temple that makes the gold sacred? 18 You also say, ‘If anyone swears by the altar, it means nothing; but anyone who swears by the gift on the altar is bound by that oath.’ 19 You blind men! Which is greater: the gift, or the altar that makes the gift sacred? 20 Therefore, anyone who swears by the altar swears by it and by everything on it. 21 And anyone who swears by the temple swears by it and by the one who dwells in it. 22 And anyone who swears by heaven swears by God’s throne and by the one who sits on it.

23 “Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You give a tenth of your spices—mint, dill and cumin. But you have neglected the more important matters of the law—justice, mercy and faithfulness. You should have practiced the latter, without neglecting the former. 24 You blind guides! You strain out a gnat but swallow a camel.

25 “Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside they are full of greed and self-indulgence. 26 Blind Pharisee! First clean the inside of the cup and dish, and then the outside also will be clean.

27 “Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You are like whitewashed tombs, which look beautiful on the outside but on the inside are full of the bones of the dead and everything unclean. 28 In the same way, on the outside you appear to people as righteous but on the inside you are full of hypocrisy and wickedness.

29 “Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You build tombs for the prophets and decorate the graves of the righteous. 30 And you say, ‘If we had lived in the days of our ancestors, we would not have taken part with them in shedding the blood of the prophets.’ 31 So you testify against yourselves that you are the descendants of those who murdered the prophets. 32 Go ahead, then, and complete what your ancestors started!

33 “You snakes! You brood of vipers! How will you escape being condemned to hell? 34 Therefore I am sending you prophets and sages and teachers. Some of them you will kill and crucify; others you will flog in your synagogues and pursue from town to town. 35 And so upon you will come all the righteous blood that has been shed on earth, from the blood of righteous Abel to the blood of Zechariah son of Berekiah, whom you murdered between the temple and the altar. 36 Truly I tell you, all this will come on this generation.

37 “Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you, how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, and you were not willing. 38 Look, your house is left to you desolate. 39 For I tell you, you will not see me again until you say, ‘Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.’[c]”



Jesus gave seven woes to the hypocritical men of God during His time on earth. How I see it, we as Christians shouldn't shy away of speaking truth to power. Woe on the men of God today, they are more hypocritical than the Pharisees of Jesus' time

So if they pay taxes to the government of the Republic of Albania, yet they reject such policy in Nigeria--- shouldn't I criticize them?

Africa (Black Africa), especially Nigeria has and possess the worst set of criminals (fraudsters) putting on tie and suit. Rubbish!

Oyedepo built a 50,000 seat capacity church and the other one in Porthacourt is planning to build a 90,000 seat capacity church. They are doing all these with these goals 'TO STEAL FROM PEOPLE, TO RENDER PEOPLE USELESS, AND TO CONTINUE TO MAKE PEOPLE POOR'
