Why Do Most Pastors Children Don't Live To Up To Their Fathers' Names? by coputa(m): 3:43pm On Jun 25, 2020 |
A pastor is one who preaches the word of God. They are role models to a lot of people because it is believed that, as men of God, they fear him and this is expected to reflect in anything that is connected to them, but unfortunately, their children display unbecoming character that does not portray their foundation. Why is it so? |

They call it freewill...Children are free to choose their own paths whether their parents were pastors or not. That's what all children have in common regardless of their upbringing...if they're brought up by pastors or not. Although upbringing can be influential, it doesn't guarantee anything. That's why you can have a godly Samuel produce ungodly children, while an ungodly Saul, produce a godly Jonathan. It doesn't make Samuel a bad parent or Saul a good one. Ultimately it's the child that decides if he would follow the path of his parents or depart from it. Moreover God is assumed to be the Father of Adam, so does Adam's decision not to follow the path of his supposed Father make Him a bad parent? Certainly not! 8 Likes 2 Shares |

My own quota: Most Pastor's face the pulpit and ignore their family, claiming to be busy with ministry work. Your Ministry and Family must go hand in hand, not that you'll face the ministry and ignore the home, it must be balanced.. As a Pastor as you minister in church you must also minister at home and pray for your children too. Ministry work is prone to many attack and Yoruba people use to say " towo kobaka baba yo ka omo". If the pastor is strong spiritually what of his wife and his children... You also can't blame them too, do you think it is easy to climb the pulpit and preach true and raw Gospel without attacks from the Devil? HELL NO. 1 Like |

Re: Why Do Most Pastors Children Don't Live To Up To Their Fathers' Names? by Nobody: 9:34pm On Jun 25, 2020 |
coputa: The reason is because they're false not real men of God! God's word says we must teach our children not just verbally but by examples {Deuteronomy 6:4-9} these people pretends before their gullible followers but their children who sees everything they're doing can't be deceived into believing what their Pastor fathers and mothers says but what they see them doing! By their fruits you will know them! Mathew 7:16-20 If they're truly for God, it will surely be one out of 12 child born to Pastors that should be a Judas Iscariot not the other way round, in fact most of their children whom you're seeing as good children have also become deceptive like their parents, not because they have any fear of God in them but because they're looking forward to inheriting their parents business empire (the church)! So in the actual fact it's those seen as bad children that are truthfully living a honest life because they don't want to deceive anybody into seeing them for what they're not on the inside! |

coputa: But how come when we have a minister.who brings his sons up alright and they eventually end up in ministry we still have people here criticizing them and say its family business coputa: Not at all . . Well they have a responsibility to train them aright but it happened in the bible days too Eli sons were worldly. So a Pastor has dual responsibility. The church and the home . Satan takes special interest in attacking ministers children and sometimes the minister feels "IF I TAKE CARE OF GODS HOUSE ,HE WILL TAKE CARE OF MY HOUSEHOLD " but it's not so . You must pay attention to the two . |

petra1:Jesus Christ had junior brothers but none of them was chosen as Apostle, the only two out of about six siblings he had accepted Christianity. So if it's not family business there is nothing that should bring the name of a child into the fold of ministers when all those working together with his father as a team are still alive. Whatever makes a son to have direct access to the church fund or a say in the affairs of the church when members who have been serving faithfully are still there is no more God's work but family business Sir! Not at all . . Well they have a responsibility to train them aright but it happened in the bible days too Eli sons were worldly. So a Pastor has dual responsibility. The church and the home . Satan takes special interest in attacking ministers children and sometimes the minister feels "IF I TAKE CARE OF GODS HOUSE ,HE WILL TAKE CARE OF MY HOUSEHOLD " but it's not so . You must pay attention to the two . What happened to Eli repeated itself in the life of faithful Samuel as well, by then the holy spirit has not been released to monitor the worshipers so that selfishness and promiscuity can't be, so it happened before Pentecost but after that, God's pure worship has been under the strict watch of the spirit so that deceit or promiscuity can't hold anymore! Act 5:1-11 And as for Pastors loosing a tight hold on his family with the flimsy excuse of taking care of God's flock is no excuse Sir! 1Timothy 3:5 |

Kumuyi turned his female followers into mourners as they will dress like old women. Most of his gullible members and majority believed his deceit, but when his own son got married Kumuyi's daughter in-law ignored all the things imposed on his church members. A member once argued that Mr Kumuyi never attended the wedding but pictures don't lie nah!

Emusan: If you're not deceiving yourself how many of the bolded here in Nigeria that has been reported amongst JWs? That's why most of my brothers call you "mumungus" Sir! The Jesus story you and i are hearing today differs completely from the reports that Pharisees,Saddusees,Scribes,Priests and others Jewish Rabbis wish to spread about him. That's why till today most Jews condemned the reports his followers penned down referred to as gospels. If you're not really stupid, in your own locality here in Nigeria how many reports of Adultery, Child abuse and Divorce cases have you heard amongst God's people? You choose to blur your senses to what is happening in your neighbourhood but you want to parade the mixed reports from far distant lands that you can't even verify! If not for Jehovah's Witnesses the Bible will always remain a myth because all the reports of how the Christians were well organized with LOVE JOY and PEACE can't be found today except amongst Jehovah's Witnesses! OP asked a question based on what is happening throughout the earth today as the so called Men Of God can't maintain a family of God fearing children, you have no shame to run for cover but instead you want to accuse the one and only organization that's maintaining God fearing children throughout the earth. Stop deceiving yourself Mr Emusan, go and tell people in your neighbourhood that Jehovah's Witnesses children aren't fine examples of God fearing children and see how sincere people will look at you. Then you'll know whether it's i who left my former Religion to join JWs due to their God fearing that's a hypocrite or you that's hitting your head on the walls of falsehood! |

Re: Why Do Most Pastors Children Don't Live To Up To Their Fathers' Names? by Nobody: 6:43am On Jun 26, 2020 |
petra1: That's not true Sir! There were two Apostles bearing the name "James" none was Jesus' sibling! Matthew 10:2-4 Before Jesus' death none of his siblings became a Christian, it was after his death that James and Jude accepted Christianity so you erred there Sir, there were three followers of Jesus named "James" two were his Apostles but the third who happens to be his junior brother became a Christian after Jesus has ascended to heaven! |

petra1:Kumuyi is a thief! He wanted to make everything his own but he can't be smarter than his shadow. He made those rules just to deceive people that his group is holier than others, of course his children knows better nah. They know he's just deceiving himself, God never made such stupid rules. Rebecca was one of the holy women of ancient times, she wear bracelets and even nose ring! Genesis 24:30 So he can only deceive gullible people but not his own children who can see through his hypocritical appearance! |

Maximus69: See this hypocrite! You made a claim but when your lie and hypocrisy is exposed you'll change mouth. This is your initial claim "...by then the holy spirit has not been released to monitor the worshipers so that selfishness and promiscuity can't be..." Now that the Holy Spirit had been released, why do such acts still reign in your demonic organization? Also, see the hypocrite now limiting it to Nigeria, are JWs not ONE all over the world again? But you can use Nigeria Christiandom to judge the rest of the Christianity. That's why most of my brothers call you "mumungus" Sir! Even Jesus was accused of having evil spirit The Jesus story you and i are hearing today differs completely from the reports that Pharisees,Saddusees,Scribes,Priests and others Jewish Rabbis wish to spread about him. That's why till today most Jews condemned the reports his followers penned down referred to as gospels. So Nigeria JWs and JWs in the rest of the world aren't the same again simply because JWs in the rest of the world are still doing what the old people were doing when "by then the holy spirit has not been released to monitor the worshipers so that selfishness and promiscuity can't be,..." When you also know that even the deluded 8men GB reside in the very place where these acts are so prominent. You choose to blur your senses to what is happening in your neighbourhood but you want to parade the mixed reports from far distant lands that you can't even verify! People have testified about their encounter with JWs in Nigeria on this forum just as people have testified about other religions they came in contact with. We have seen testimonies that commend you guys likewise testimonies that exposed the other side. The only person his sense of humor is blur is the person who refuses to acknowledge that in every organisation there's always a bad eggs but using the bad eggs to judge the rest and when the table is turned shift blame on the bad eggs If not for Jehovah's Witnesses the Bible will always remain a myth because all the reports of how the Christians were well organized with LOVE JOY and PEACE can't be found today except amongst Jehovah's Witnesses! Says the deluded JWs who forgot that Billions still belief in the Bible. I can see the LOVE, JOY and Peace indeed No wonder my friend's mum (both Father & mother are all JWs) refused her to marry a witness Guy (both father and mother are JWs too)....so much for the self parade LOVE OP asked a question based on what is happening throughout the earth today as the so called Men Of God can't maintain a family of God fearing children, you have no shame to run for cover but instead you want to accuse the one and only organization that's maintaining God fearing children throughout the earth. People have answered OP by even cited example from the scripture, do you agree with them? No! but you simply inject your delusions into it forgotten that there's a log of wood in your eyes while you're busy looking at the beam in someone's else eyes. Hypocrite! Stop deceiving yourself Mr Emusan, go and tell people in your neighbourhood that Jehovah's Witnesses children aren't fine examples of God fearing children and see how sincere people will look at you. You can do that about another Christian body Then you'll know whether it's i who left my former Religion to join JWs due to their God fearing that's a hypocrite or you that's hitting your head on the walls of falsehood! God fearing Yet Child Abuse Adultery Divorce Even a JWs family can stop their daughter to marry to another JWs... You can keep deceiving yourself and your like with fake love, joy and peace.
