Sell all you have and give to the poor and needy and I will believe you.

This is what Jesus told Necodemus. It is easier for a camel to go through the eyes of the niddle than a rich man to enter heaven.

If you are stupendously rich, heaven is far from you.


You are wrong


If you are stupendously rich, heaven is far from you.


I wish I could mentor you for some months

We have faithfuls who were billionaire

Father Abraham was a billionaire in goods and commodities. Same with Isaac, Jacob and Job and Joseph of Arimathea. So so many throughout scriptures

The Catholic church sits on billions. Many Christian organizations now sit on billions. God promises us as Christians wealth. My only pain is why would one be a follower for a decade and look like a skunk. You need emergency financial aid of 500k for medical surgery for your loved one, then stories begins to enter and a while family may have committed there for a decade. When people then ask for help, speeches like you're coming to church because if financial aid not for God. Even after spending up to a decade in followersip and service. Then I begin to wonder if we have blood in us or iron


I dare to be challenged, did someone not say they had a mandate to make people at liberty almost thirty years plus ago.


And when one mebtors followers for 10-20-30 years then the fruits should be the judge

And when followers of 10-40 years are yet in terrible conditions in large swarths, what right do we have to claim fullfilment ?

I am not sure I understood everything you wrote, but I want to respond because you mentioned the Catholic Church. Yes, I am a proud Catholic and the Church has been going through a lot of changes for centuries now.

From one parish to another, the way the Catholic Church is run differs. In Lagos Archdiocese, Archbishop Adewale Martins has set the template. In spite of that, parish priests still determine how to run their parishes.

In my parish, we have St. Vincent De Paul Society. Those people give scholarship, pay school fees, pay hospital bills and help people to finance their businesses. And my parish priest finances the tertiary education of many altar servers.

When active people like myself kick that these activities should be published so that the world would see it, my parish priest would argue that the church wasn't established over 2000 years ago to prove a point to man, but to spread the Gospel of Christ through evangelism and works of charity.

So, my friend, the Catholic Church is huge. Don't use what you see in one parish as your yardstick to judge because it's not easy to successfully run the world's oldest international religious organization and keep it going.

If census were taken from pastor's with very poor financial welfare who live miserably, then we shouldn't say such without first providing opportunities to build their life financially one way or the other. Tl


That's pastor's not even talking members.

When I was a baby Christian I listened to the speech and words of ministers, as I began to deepen root in Christ,I noticed I'm to listen to the actions of any minister and not their talks. No one would taint themselves in their speeches. Hypocrisy everywhere

When we rather spend billions on chairs and buildings and neglect issues like financial assistance for education and health, we know that the god of this world has grabbed us on one side.


If talk isn't backed by frank active actions, then talk is hypocrisy


All of the whole financial rascality that poor people don't get financial aid is to keep them at a level that they will never rise to challenge number one position and that of offspring. So followers are in a slaves position not just momentarily, but generationally.

Anyway, most of those commenting negatively are wretched Yoruba Muslim Terrorists hating on Papa Oyedepo for always speaking up against Muslim Jihadists terrorism agenda in Nigeria.


They won't comment on that thread about their fellow Fulani Muslim Terrorists that murdered innocent people in Southern Kaduna, it is Bishop Oyedepo's wise counsel that is eating their bitter livers up, very anyhow set of people

If you start a Church today, I am not sure of your religion though, there is no chance anywhere, that everyone will agree with whatever good things you do to ever be sufficient.
I understand your perspective about what you put up here, but look, if you are a Christian, when Christ was around on Earth in person, was He able to solve everyone's problem? He could, but He could solve those He was sent to, but even, He didn't solve them all.
Before you attack individuals or organization, have you made findings to see if they are actually contributing anything positively to lives of people and the society at large? Do you think people gather every week just because their lives are not getting better or because they were hoodwinked?
Do you know how scholarships being given out on a yearly basis? How much reliefs are being made available to places?

I am not attacking your post or your person, but if you want to go that path, that's on you altogether.
If you start a Church today or hold a leadership position, that's when you'll know you can't meet all needs or solve all men's problems but just some. The easier thing to do is always to criticize.

Theology and Economy are not related in any way

While theology search for souls, economy search for money but our economical clergy seems to be searching for both but lie in the process to fit the purpose, relegating theology to promote the prosperity teachings.

Money is man made, can not define God

If money can define your gods then the world bank akin to emefiele that year can remotely control your gods.

Theology and Economics have nothing in common

This is what Jesus told Necodemus. It is easier for a camel to go through the eyes of the niddle than a rich man to enter heaven.

If you are stupendously rich, heaven is far from you.
Solomon was rich and still made heaven.


Abraham was a stupendously wealthy man too and he made heaven.


King David was rich also and many others.

What matters is the source of your wealth. If you made your wealth through criminality, illegality, shortchanging people and robbing others, then you can never make heaven because you will keep trying to sustain your wealth which will keep drawing you back to sins.


But if your source of wealth is genuine and clean, and built on the principles of Godliness and uprightness, your possibility of making heaven now depends on how you live your personal life as a wealthy person, and if you cherish God and appreciate the fact that it is God that gave you the grace and blessings that made it possible for you to become rich, you will spend most of your years on earth appreciating God, giving thanks to God, helping people in need and using your good works to win souls for Christ, and trying to do God's will, and when you sin you seek for His forgiveness and trust me, you will still make heaven if you desire to.


And lastly, heavenly race is not by righteousness alone, being righteous alone wont take you to heaven, it is by the grace and will of God that anyone of us would make heaven at last.



So please discard that belief that being wealthy automatically cancels one from making heaven.


As I speak, I am rich and will end up very wealthy and I love God and I know that despite my sins which I pray to God daily to help me overcome, I will make heaven, and before then, I will spend my years here on earth in riches and pleasure while doing God's will, this is the promise of God to me and all true Believers of Jesus Christ cool

Jesus taught us wisdom is justified by her children. Even Solomon with his concubines preached truth. However my own truth will be evaluated by actions and not volume.of words. For the Kingdom of God is not one of plentiful words but of alignment with our Father, His will, His dictates, His actions and interests

Is like you lack adequate brain capacity to understand what he is talking about before you wrote all these gibberish. Listen to it, again and again! He is saying, money is nonsense if you look for it in ungodly manners by killing your wife or someone in the hope of getting money. He is emphasizing that true riches can come from God if you patiently follow God and waits for him to bless you because money is no evil, but LOVE OF MONEY (to do every ungodly things to get it) is evil. That's is summary of what he said, Mr man!
....and how did his own money come from God or is it not from the donations of his gullible followers.
