Comparing your Pastor to a Fool? And you're still going to his Church? U sef be

Don't be ridiculous please. There's a reason Christians go to the hospital to give birth, do blood tests and other tests before marriage etc. Faith is not a substitute for commonsense. God gives the two. Wisdom is profitable to direct.

As if Christ was born in a hospital or Joseph sought after Mary's genotype before marrying her. Come on bro, how many times has God shown his supremacy over science that you still don't believe?
Sarah gave birth at old age, Jesus rose from the dead after 3 days, even here on nairaland, there was a news about a non compatible couple genotypically who got married and gave birth to healthy kids!
Baba things happen, God is supreme!

Image123:



The gift of faith is one of the gifts of the Spirit. Just like Rhema, it does not work every time or for every person. It is specific and time bound.
You don't go and walk on the river claiming Jesus told Peter to, you will drown and cause scoffers to make a mockery of the faith.

I agree with you

While it is possible for God to use someone to demonstrate His glory by touching and healing the sick. It is not a calling of every Christian every time. There is time for everything including this.

Jesus gave a mandate .

Luke 10:19
19 Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

MasterRahl:

LEAD BY EXAMPLE!!!

Chris Oyakhilome should drive to the nearest COVID-19 quarantine facility. He should lay hands on at least two patients. Cameras should beam it live for all good Nigerians to watch.

After two weeks, he should be tested and if the results shows negative, then we will compel all pastors to follow suit.

Nonsense and Oshiomole's failed political career.

We have tried they did not allow access .

So, because am spritual now, I shud go and be romancing the virus..and may I ask, how many isolation centers HV u been to yourself, as a senior spiritual fellow .
Read what u typed, does it make any sense to you.. then if it does, there is fire on the mountain

You are obviously ignorant of the power Jesus made available to Christians.

ppogba:
"It doesn't require praying and fasting for you to cast out devil"-------- Pastor Chris Oyakhilome. (Rhapsody of Reality--- 1st April, 2020.

With the above, there is nothing the pastor says that CAN EVER surprise me again.

And who told you it requires Prayer and Fasting?
You err cos you know not!

BluntTheApostle:


Wisdom is the principal thing.

When Satan told Jesus to jump from the Pinnacle of the Temple, why didn't Jesus do it? If Jesus is our Model, then it must always be our watchword never to abuse privileges.

If you enter into a lion's den (without a need to) simply because Jesus Christ once told his disciples that He had given them power over snakes and serpents, then you are on a suicide mission because if the lions devour you, then that is tantamount to you committing suicide.

Practise social and physical distancing. Touching a Covid-19 patient just to demonstrate your faith is nothing but foolishness, and an act of tempting God.

Jesus didn't have to do it cos Satan was involved. Isn't walking on top of the sea more dangerous than jumping from a pinnacle?
Haven't you ever heard of John G Lake and many others?

I support Chris on this one.
We need less of religious morons and what better way to eradicate them than goading them into playing with coronavirus. Unlike tithes, covid-19 is not very forgiving-- be stvpid and pay the ultimate price.

Yes. Mr or Miss Bible lunatic: Go ahead and touch coronavirus patients. Many Catholic priests in Rome fell. Many pastors fell. It is the turn of gullible weasels.

God is Supreme and Wonderful, yes. i believe in and experience the miraculous. The point is that everybody does not have faith. The whole world cannot live on one person.

What i have faith for, you may not have faith for. And vice versa. So don't tell everyone to do things they cannot do.

David's faith didn't reach raising dead children, Elijah's faith did. The two of them are challenges to us all, but we don't live by them. It is to every man according to his faith.
You don't cause people to sin(whatever is not of faith is sin) by your personal strength. Paul was rugged, but Timothy was not. Paul told him to take other things for his sickness.

I agree with you



Jesus gave a mandate .

Luke 10:19
19 Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

We both know that the disciples didn't go about literally treading on serpent and scorpions. If anyone breaks an hedge, the serpent will bite him.
Jesus Himself was never power drunk. He had power but had to depend on God not on power or mandate. It is foolish to do things simply because you have power to.

Jesus had power to call angels. He had power to turn stones to bread. But he also exercised wisdom. He was not a powerful bull in a China shop.

Religion is one of our biggest problem in this country. This shouldn't be coming from an educated pastor. This is unpardonable. He is n architectural graduate, enlightened and exposed. Is this real? My father in law didn't believe corona virus exist until it knocked out three of his friends. They are all buried now. It is an invincible enemy that kill people. We should all be guided and be cautious. Stay safe. Stay alive. Avoid having covid-19.

Confusionist!! Please don't mislead the people.
Where then is social distancing protocol?

Anuoluwa1234:
See dear, let me tell you this in case you don't know.
Don't let any spiritual leader fool you, biko Nigerians are damn too gullible for my liking. .
I am a Christian, and believe me, am a very spiritual fellow, but I can't cajole you with spirituality . There is spirituality and there is reality.
Spirituality is that, God is powerful etc. But the reality is that God is not a Magician. There is a great difference btw God and magicians.
Don't dare God at all, we are talking about Virus here biko..( an intracellular obligate parasite).
Do you know what that means, of all microns, Virus is still the maddest, they HV no definite shape, they react anyhow..
I weak for this religious ppl hooo

Madame, Pastor Chris was not talking to everybody. He was talking to church leaders who claim they were called by God. I know you are a faithless and powerless Christian, and it is understandable. I don't expect every Christian to have the faith and carry God's healing power that can do the impossible, but please clear out of the way let people that are called by God and also have the faith do what they need to do if required. The Jesus you claim to serve said clearly in his word that if you have faith and doubt not in your heart, you can command mountains to move in prayer, and they will be moved, AND NOTHING SHALL BE IMPOSSIBLE TO YOU. Some of us have not developed that faith yet, but let those who have developed it go and use it. If God could use Pastor Chris to open blind eyes and make crippled people walk again as we have seen so many times, the same God can still use him or any other genuine man of God to heal Coronavirus.

Amotolongbo:
It is so simple.

Pastor Chris could have demonstrated the faith by going to an isolation center in UK (not naija isolation center o ) laying hands on the COVID19 patients with no glove or mask. Then wait for 14 days to say this he had said.

Action speaks louder than voice
Faith is more practical than verbal expression.

You touch covid 19 patients everyday
In case u don't know

He has come again.
Previously he did a PowerPoint presentation on how 5g was spreading the virus, now this?

kollinskollins:
A real man of faith can touch anything and it will not hurt him

If a real man of faith foolishly touches something dangerous, he will die!!

Pastor Chris's complaints about the non-reopening of Church shows him in an unpalatable light.

He is missing something that isn't about the Christian faith nor about fellowship with fellow believers.

He makes defending his stance so hard.


Let's endeavour to practice our Christian faith with sense, logic and practicality.

Heading to his call to attend physical services doesn't make us diffe rent from those who went into Lions' cages in zoos in order to test their faith.


A minute percentage survived the stupid way of testing their faith.

They don dey rub our Jesus shit as usual. What he said is criminality offense.

confusion every where

I came to read comments..

SavageMaster:


You're not his member.

If you're truly a Christian, there are some statements you can't make on social media, no matter how wise you think you are, or how much you think your leader has "erred"

You even called your pastor a fool on Nairaland. Wow!!!

Case dismissed

But pastor Chris is a fool na and also a lying bastard

I'd love to experience this your spirituality - §first hand o - if you don't mind obliging me.

Pastor, I have heard you but I will not touch any covid-19 patient. Because I know if Pastor Oyakhilome falls sick today, their (not his) church has money to fly him overseas for treatment while I may find it difficult to go for treatment in underequipped AanuOluwapo clinic in my neighborhood.
It is therefore my responsibility to use my commonsense in order to stay safe.
