Paul Adefarasin; His Saul Analogy And The Response by Eketem: 8:43am On Feb 21, 2023
Paul Adefarasin who leads House on the Rocks came under fire in the last 24 hours for his claim that there will be another Saul before David.

For non Bible scholars, David was the one after God's heart while Saul was someone who fell out of favor with court by his actions.

He claimed that there will be a Saul before David.

He came under heavy fire and people feel he is just being dragged for not taking a stand.

However the reason he is being called out is for lying and hypocrisy.

1. In April 2022 he was very vocal about the church taking a stand, it was he who declared that no Christian should be on the sidelines.

2. He claimed Christians will give block votes to a certain candidate who they will name before election.

3. After the primaries people speculate that his preferred candidate didn't win and instead of being a decent human being and saying he was guided by his personal bias went to lie that it was some sort of revelation.

4. He is being disagreed with because the Bible instructs that we condemn prophets who lie and claim their personal bias is a revelation from God.

Ezekiel 13:1: Ezekiel, son of man, condemn the prophets of Israel who say they speak in my name, but who preach messages that come from their own imagination.

5. He has the right as a human being and an individual to want to support a candidate and decide to change his mind when his candidate didn't appear but he doesn't have the right to use the Bible to manipulate Christians into whatever thing he has put himself in currently.

Paul Adefarasin Reacts

Friends, you have kept me busy with your tweets, posts, and comments. Though many are harsh, I appreciate your feedback and I still want to take a minute to share my stance with you again, in the hope that you may gain a clearer understanding.

As with all of you, I identify as a Nigerian and a patriot, so undoubtedly, I share in your pain. Living in Nigeria, I share the desire for a working country and that is why we all consider this election critical in our collective quest for a New Nigeria.

I really believe that it will happen, and I wish that you could see what I see – the hope that the parable of Saul and David brings - the after-victory. I understand that there are varying interpretations of the parable of Saul & David, and that is fine.

However, remember that the giver of the parable is the One that can give meaning to it. God gave me that parable and even as I released it, I have continued to search for it’s applicable meaning to the present Nigerian circumstances.

I feel blessed to have your ear, however, I will ask that you listen deeply for understanding, so that you do not miss the message.

Saul, instead of trusting in God, tried to manipulate things and even discountenanced his mentor, Samuel. David on the other hand stumbled, but never stuttered, he was delayed but not too late.

So, whether Saul represents our past or our present, only God knows. Whether David represents the future or now, I can't tell. In any case, the ‘wise’ will wait for the election period to play itself out, before concluding or judging the messenger.

Finally, kindly remember that I shepherd people of all parties, and if that parable was taken in offense, my intention was not to offend you.

However, I stand by what I heard God say to me: that Saul came before David. This means that even if this election does not go the way that you want it to go, don’t be disappointed.

Every election will produce some disappointment for the camps of the candidates who lose. God's will shall still come to pass in Nigeria. It will happen and His ‘David’ will rise to the role. We will get there. Remember, we are all in this together.

If you have your PVC, it is a token of your faith in a New Nigeria. Go out and vote as your convictions lead you, and watch God Almighty do what only He can do.

You guys should let this man be. I think these pastors are now beginning to understand that they cannot even practice what they preach.

Like I posted on one thread, my voting for Peter Obi on Saturday is similar to doing what Pontus Pilate did when the Jews demanded that Jesus be crucified for no apparent reason.

He should apologize for lying and trying to mango people with his personal bias and claiming it is a revelation

Be quiet. I'm a member of HOTR. He initially gave recommendations on what we should look for in a president. Only for him to suddenly start talking about Saul and Paul.

If Buhari is not Saul then who is Buhari? Nebuchadnezzer?

Panam Percy Paul preached similar message three years ago and identified Buhari as Saul.

No wonder Akpororo had the guts to insult Peter Obi. No be message them send am so?

I just don't understand why it's extremely difficult for you people to accept the fact that everyone can't face one direction! Let's practice democracy freely without fear of being insulted! I hope the man that bought the musical instruments for redeem church has gone to pick his stuff according to his threat because baba has not openly declared his support for any candidate undecided

One man one vote. He is free to support anyone he wants. You do not need the confirmation from a pastor or an Imam on who to vote for.

wink Yoruba pastors where expecting the only Christian candidate to be osinbanjo, that's why before primaries all Yoruba pastors where shouting Christians must rule in 2023.

As the only Christian candidate is now Igbo, all the Yoruba pastors returned to support the Muslim Muslim ticket they were preaching against.

Igbos face fact, Obi can't get 20k votes from Yorubas

Even all the major pastors( eneche, ecwa, umca etc) and parishes in the north are supporting Obi, northern Christians are supporting Obi, big South South pastors (Suleman, Chris, ibiyome) are supporting Obi.

No big Yoruba pastor supports Obi.

Igbos open your eyes and vote Atiku the Unifier.

Atiku is coming

The CORN munching pastor thinks that God is an author of confusion
Never.

Nigeria accounts for 89% of martyred christians in the entire world.

Tilinbu even had the temerity to hire Fake agbado bishops just to achieve his evil agenda after giving the christians the middle finger with Muslim Muslim ticket.
