It is protocol but if you call it bodyguards ,fine. King David had about 600men who were ready to kill for him

You're very correct, but remember that King David was a man of war. He's a warrior who goes to war to fight his people's enemies. I don't want to say more than that.

Jesus preached to 5000 people without using a public addressing system, fed them with the fishes and bread he had collected from some people (NOTE: he didn't keep the fish and bread to himself as offering like most pastors) , and needed no bodyguard to protect him, that's the true definition of man of God.

What else did you expect from these so called religious lords, only the gullible will fall to their scamming tactics.

They would sell stickers, books and bands to u for protection and prosperity while they walk around with heavily chested, heavily armed bodyguards.

They would tell u pray to God for ur daily bread while they grow fat from the coffers of the poor congregation, their children attend d best schools and are treated as demi gods while they turn ur own children to ushers, choirs and evangelist all in the name of serving the Lord.


The Bible says “my people suffer from lack of knowledge” that statement is 100 and 1 percent true.

WAKE UP U GULLIBLE ONES.
An expert that knows how to seek protection for u from God, is now seeking protection from bodyguards for himself.

Rubbish people talk, looking for whom to jump their angers on and left what's important unattended, those people u called security men are crowd control unit and they are only in that position when alter calls are made, they are to direct and position the crowd coming where to stand at the alter. Ask if you don't know before spilling rubbish from ur mouth.

The disciples of Jesus Christ carried out similar duty when they tried stopping the Children who came looking for Jesus Christ.

If they could do this... I bet u they have been doing the work of protocol to a greater extent.

You FaultFinders...Find a unit and serve God in his house. There is every opportunity to serve.

A christain should be christ-like in all his dealings...
our lord jesus christ never went out with body guards or seen with any even when he knew caiphas and the phariseas of the sahendrin had plot to have him executed because he was the messiah...
all this so called pastors and aclaimed men of God are scared of death, yet they wish to go to heaven.
.
Please read your Bible well. Inasmuch i hate seeing armed personnel near men of God, that doesn't mean we should mislead.
.
Next time while studying the Bible check if the disciples of Christ never did the job of "crowd control" (remember the case where HE said "allow the kids to come to me", the woman of issue of blood and lots more)
.
Bro did you know that the 12 had weapons with them tooo? Remember Peter and cutting off marcus ear ..
.
study well before criticising.

Sigh... What is wrong with you bloggers and slow children of hate??!... Protect him with what? They are clearly unarmed!!!

Are we gonna pretend there is no place for protocol officials to prevent distractions and interference during ministrations??!... Even Jesus Christ had at least 12 of them around him most places he went to minister, even on the eve of his arrest.

Not a fan of religion or religious leaders, but this is just commonsense na.... Smh.

Bishop David Oyedepo, the founder and General Overseer of Living Faith Church a.k.a Winners’ Chapel who made headlines days ago after speaking out against the controversial hate speech bill, is on the news again after a photo of his alleged bodyguards went viral.

Oyedepo was spotted in the viral photo, surrounded by 9 men as he preached at his church’s annual programme ‘Shiloh’. The photo ignited mixed reactions as some social media user claimed the men are his bodyguards, while others defended the church leader; stating that the men are ushers stationed at the altar to control the crowd.

Twitter user @iam_Chisco1 who first shared his observation, tweeted “9 bodyguard protecting Bishop Oyedepo right in the alter of God…I wonder who he is actually afraid of when Jesus is by his side.”

Here are reactions to the tweet below;

@iam_selom tweeted: “More than 15 bodyguard protecting Bishop Oyedepo right in the alter of God…I wonder who he is actually afraid of when Jesus is by his side.”

@wainaina_john tweeted: “The social-religious facade messing Africa! Obviously, the 9 bodyguards are hired to keep all inane bigots surrounding him at bay. There’s no way success-hungry gullibles can mean well to a rich clergyman, moreso after offering hard-earned pennies to get hopefully instant miracles”

@ebube_iam tweeted: “They’re not bodyguards, they are called Protocols, they are from the Protocol department of the church. Even your political leaders have them. When last did you even go to church? Abi you just want to trend cos the stupid ones will join you in this thread”

@IGlare tweeted : “I see some fellows calling them ushers, try getting close to that ur bishop since he is ur pastor, and see the true meaning of Security guards. I have seen them manhandle worshippers when your Bishop is passing. Afterall he slapped a lady called her witch & you all hailed him.”

@tequaneV tweeted: “Those are crowd control unit members. I am one of them in my local assembly, it’s standard protocol in LFC worldwide to have CCU altar squad members standing when the Pastor in charge of the local assembly is preaching. don’t post trash dude”

@nonsookongwu tweeted: “Till tmr, my boss will always move with armed police people and crowd control team..after an experience he had preaching somewhere & he was almost suffocated by the crowd. In fact, those are his prime requirements if he must attend any programme. Call it what u want, baba is being safe”

@leyislee tweeted: “Nigeria has turned everyone to critics, we criticize everything even what we know nothing about or should care less about. Shiloh is going on and hundreds of thousands are there from so many countries. Order is needed. It’s not like that on Normal service days”

@enyola tweeted: “Protocol is English… if I approach that alter without invitation, will hey stop me from having access to him? If the answer is yes, they are part-time bodyguards and they are probably doing it for free so calling it ushers/protocol makes it sound like they are doing it for God.”

If still thinking along the line that the man of God needs body guards inside the church should do him/herself a favour by logging in at Shiloh live on YouTube and see for yourself,this guys are protocols and crowd control guys when alter call is made, stop spreading false news.
