Ok guys, I didn't want to respond before but i think I have to clear the air on my question vis-a-vis Oyedepo's comments.

No one is saying the market is not important!
and..
No one said the Church is more important than the market!
let's be logical here...

All Oyedepo is saying is, if you can keep the markets open without any caution, social distancing, age limit, face-mask inspection, use of sanitizers etc.. what makes opening the church more worse than that?

You and I know that the Churches will still put better measures in place than the market.

And I'm sorry if you're not a religious/spiritual person, I don't think your submission on this matter should be biased because of that.

Motorparks, markets, workplaces, etc are now open for everyone without the government inspecting compliance to measures, why must the church be closed then?

This is a simple logical question that should be devoid of religious sentiments (even though its a religion topic).

And to all those claiming Oyedepo wants more money, I'm sorry to burst your bubble - Millions of people watch the DOMI services online from over 150 countries every Sundays, and pay their Tithes and Offerings through the online payment platform or USSD.

Just so you are informed and come out of that ignorance.

So if a pastor is doing the wrong thing we can’t criticize or insult them we should leave them to God
What about that robber,rapist,murderer or fraudster? Why don’t we leave them to God to judge them too?...Think about it

lucasalves:


you called others ignorant when you are probably the most ignorant one in this forum... Market I repeat are Essential services, commercial activities are Essential activities in Nigeria as the Federal government isn't ready to cut check for the masses.... didn't the scripture say our body is the temple of God why do we need to go to an actual building to be connected to God when we all know God is everywhere? right now churches are not Essential and since churches are enclosed spaces, the virus transmit way faster in an enclosed environment than somewhere with open ( you see if you weren't ignorant you will know that)

Bevima:


Did he commit a crime or he only spoke what he claims God has revealed to him. So if he is wrong, it's left for God to Judge him according to what he has said. Not you. He hasn't committed any earthly crime that demands human judgment.

GlorifiedTunde:


I didn't call anyone ignorant, this is supposed to be a reasonable discussion. I'd appreciate it if you can be less invasive.

Having said all that, all you have said hasn't answered the question. I didn't term the market as non essential also.

The market is a mad house! No nose mask, temperature checks, sanitizers, social distancing, or other measures; bodies rubbing against each other, people sneezing and coughing, exchanging money, goods and commodities... And finally very densely populated!

Those who attended burials "in an open space" got infected.

I am more certain that an enclosed space with all the measures being observed is far more safer than the market.

But if you don't see what I am trying to establish, then it's all good. We all have our opinions.

GlorifiedTunde:


Oyedepo asked a daft question.

Ur explanations very similar to his question.

The churches would remain under lock n key, they aren't important and man can do without it.

You rarely hear Daniel Olukoya of MFM engage in this kind of talks. What I do not understand about Oyedepo is that he dabbles too much into politics. Despite my respect for him, and I know I supported his visions many times in the past, also appreciate his entrepreneurship skills; I started paying less attention to him for directly supporting Jonathan and he was against the Vice president Prof Osinbajo. And till date, Osinbajo has not for once attacked this man. So, I started watching Adeboye (Osinbajo's pastor) to know who he is. And funny, he seems exactly like Osinbajo. I am about asumming that the same spirit lives in Adeboye lives in Osinbajo. The irony is that Oyedepo and Adeboye are close too.

People close to Oyedepo should tell to him to talk less. Let him emulate Daniel Olukoya who does not fight his battles with direct confrontation, but on his knees. You guys should watch it. Daniel doesn't dabble into politics at all, but you dare not rough handle him. You will return to beg him. What has Winners done that MFM has not done? The latter just decided to not acquire too much wealth and he lives his life silently but shaking and mouldings behind the scene on his knees.

"Me, a tire for this oyedepo oooo". Chai!


Eviana, one reason I am looking into churches established long time ago (Methodist, Anglican, apostolic, adventist, etc) is cos the hierarchy does not allow one person to command and control people and resources. Most christians in Nigeria are blind and they follow prosperity preachers anyhow. You need to add to your prayer list this issue. That God should open the eyes of baby christians. Adventist, Apostolic and Methodist are some of the olden denominations I am so opened to presently.

bezimo:


My friend shut up..What Bishop Oyedepo has done by the grace of God..i am not sure you can count 5 ministers of God in whole world that can come close..excluding his father in the Lord Daddy Adeboye..so be guided in your assertions.Comparing MFM with Winners Chapel is stupidity at the highest level..Have you heard Pst Olukoya condemn openly the wickedness of this present gov't once..the corruption..increased hardship against the masses, fulani killing of Christians.. better shut up your possessed mouth...when it comes to prophets of God who can speak boldly against the wickedness of the powers that be in Nigeria without consequence.. Bishop Oyedepo stands in a clear class of his own as empowered by God..

henrybomb:
Obviously people like Oyedepo and Oyakilome have missed it completely up there.
They keep attacking the government to open up churches because of their selfish reason I don’t know what they are using their brains for.
Let them all come together and pray for the nation and the world in general they should stop making a foolery of themselves

I am not sure of what you are saying. When it comes to number of members, you are wrong in my opinion. And when it comes to influence, I do not know what you mean. And what influence Oyedepo has made that Olukoya has not made. To me, Olukoya is more influential. Let me educate you.

1. Olukoya is well known abroad more than Oyedepo.
2. Olukoya is well known among experts than Oyedepo.
3. When it comes to education, Olukoya has it more than Oyedepo.
4. Do you know how many nations MFM has branches all over the world? From Africa to US, UK, Bahama, SA, etc. Infact, Olukoya is more frequent in the UK than in Nigeria, yet you will not know cos he is always at the Prayer City every month.
5. Olukoya has just started Hill Top University. Just wait and you will know soon.
6. Olukoya goes deep into grassroot. He developed a football team which is doing excellently well in the Nigerian league and boys are beginning to move into Europe via the team.
7. Olukoya has written over 70 published genetic related materials.
8. Olukoya has powerful members, but the structure of the church does not allow show off. He is completely a man without show off. This is the reason I started studying him, and I started seeing powerful men around him.

Guy, let me stop there. Like this boy sing... "Noise is not music". No no no.

Olukoya is an astounding man. Very humble. You will never hear him talk like this. Yet, he influences high rank people. Let me tell this. Oyedepo criticizes too much, but I know many governors who reckons with Olukoya. He has direct influence on Aregbesola via his deputy, but you will never know. And when he rebukes, he does it in a plain way without direct attacks. So, I dont understand you.

My point here is this: one is making too many noises, while the other is very silent.

Guy, stop looking at show off. Winners does not have influence more than MFM. No no no. To me, MFM has more.

WHITELIGHTER:
I used to respect this man, but now that's gone. All he's after now is reopening of churches, he is not bothered about any other thing. That's plain selfishness. I was expecting some sensible ideas from his likes on how we can recover as a nation. How will he be comparing markets and churches in a time like this?

Well, they are scared that the longer people stay away from church buildings the more they understand that God actually dwells in the heart of man, not in the buildings of the church.

One4me:
Baba Shurrup jare, you have been given condition to fulfill so you can open fully.
Market is for everybody, itis for food, Church/Mosque is not for everybody and just because your income is affected does not mean you can start inciting people.
if not for selfishness and wickedness sef, are you no the one that is suppose to be advicing people to still saty back until we get a good handle on the Virus and we can all worship without fear of infection?

Not to mention that you have not healed a single Covid-19 patient all these months, small time now you will start lying that you cn raise the dead and cure the sick.

Awon Olee-depo radrada.

Why shouting and making noise on the governments in Nigeria, shebi he has branches in UK, USA (both headed by his children) and other developed countries, if then born am well, he should go and open those branches (cash cow and business centres) and stop disturbing the airwaves.

Digital101:

You are totally wrong, the only point I agree with is the football club which I give Olukoya credit.

Winners is arguably the richest pentecostal church in Nigeria and the second largest pentecostal church in Nigeria after RCCG in terms of members.

Winners have branches in 64 countries and have the largest church auditorium in Central and Eastern Africa.

Winners is the only Pentecostal church in Nigeria that has two universities and is currently building another university in Calabar. No special offering raised in fact most members don't know that the church is currently building a university in Calabar.

The only Nigerian pastor that is known worldwide is Tb Joshua. Olukoya is not even close.

The most influential pastor in Nigeria is Adeboye followed by Oyedepo, and this is because many pastors pay homage to them.

Winners hold five services every Sunday in Ota in a 50,000 seating capacity which means more than 200,000 people worship every Sunday in Cannaland. The church has more than 5,000 branches in Nigeria.

MFM is being investigated for fraud in the UK and the UK has appointed an interim manager to take over MFM. The MFM church in the US is still in disarray because of the lawsuit by some former pastors against Olukoya accusing him of Fraud. Please do your research.

I love Olukoya and he is my mentor. There is no competition because we are one in Christ but please don't compare Winners with MFM
