Actually they listen to him preach, that is why they always make him subject of their Sunday preaching

They have to listen to him preach. He sure understands the Bible better than this pastors or they do but don’t want their followers to understand

Billyonaire:
The Greatest Mistake Anyone Can Make, Is thinking or believing that Jesus was a Christian.

Jesus was not a Christian and will never be a Christian.

Christ Jesus, the Lord of the Sun is the personification of Cosmic Consciousness also known as Christ Consciousness. He is represented by Master Number 333. Until you get to the stage in life of knowing that there are few who have earned the rights to be called Christ and can as well do even greater things than Jesus did, then Religions are making no headway.

All religions are they are presently constituted have no Authority and Permission from Divinity. That is largely why Prayers are not answered literally.

No one was given permission to set up religions on this plane, but no one is stopped from setting up shops, it is all good. But people must understand that the God they seek does not live in Houses of worship, neither have the Pastors/Imams even understand how God communicates with Humans in 21st.

Stay away from organized religions if you are interested in knowing what God is. In fact it is easiest for an Atheist to discover what God is, then Theists.

I remain Sovereign and my Soul is mine to keep.

You write with deep insight and surely you have not learnt this from the Bible. Based on your comment, I can discern that you are on the path of self discovery. A spiritual path that only ready students undertake.

It is surprisingly how people fight over religion when they have NO clue about the infinite consciousness and the essence of our being.

People the knowledge of God is not in the Bible. Your pastors do not know God. They have no clue at all.

beautiful232:
who is this man call daddy freeze that is always against men of GOD? I mean if he thinks is easy to be a pastor let him go and open his own church haba..

only spiritual minded people will understand what pastor oyenepo was trying to say

He has his own church online. They don’t pay tithe or offering. He inspires his listeners to help the poor. He doesn’t solicit for donations and he actually tries to interpret the Bible properly. Something I think any discerning human being should be able to do.

Freeze is passionate about correcting the errors preachers are circulating. He has said it is his mission to let people know that salvation is not through money, a trend now in Christianity. He was once a sheeple who decided to study the Bible thoroughly to understand its hidden meaning.

In my own opinion, I think Freeze is still on a huge road to discover Self, but he is heading in the right direction.

Finally, for your information, he preaches/teaches everyday on YouTube and Instagram (12noon - 1:30pm). That some of his comments circulate around is because bloggers are looking for what to eat.

I have read some nice comments and some not so good ones, probably due to difference in opinion. However, I must commend the OP for sharing his experience. It was inspiring enough to rob me off my siesta.

My final thought on this is below -

- There is absolutely nothing wrong with marrying from a wealthy home. Though, spouses from wealthy homes often act differently, probably due to the nature of their upbringing and exposure. I think character is very important. Poor in-laws also have their own issues.

- Marriage is not love, but love is a defining point in engaging into a contractual agreement to spend the rest of your life with a stranger.

- Keep your marital affairs private. I can almost swear that not all marriages are perfect. The moment you involve external parties into your marital affair, you would begin to create problems.

- Wealth is relative. I think the important virtue is contentment. Be progressive, be ambitious but be also contented with what you have at the moment.

- Young men and Bachelors should seek to learn about marriage before jumping into it. Continuously obtain advice from people with successful marriages.

- Women love comfort and security. Rather than secluding the aspect of providing for the home to the man, it would be better to partner with the husband to ensure that comfort at home is better. It also increases their involvement in family affairs.

Marriage is teamwork

HenryCavill:
Interesting post although it reeks of pride.
1. Your in-laws rarely visited you and you found a problem with it.
2. When things took a downward turn they became more involved you had a problem with it
3. I find it shocking that what stopped you from "slapping your wife to remove her make-up" was the fear of the state govt interfering.

Having put your business out there, I'm sure you don't mind if I make it my business also and contribute my 2 cents.

Had your relatively well to do in-laws not meddled when things took a downward turn with you I'm pretty sure someone would have called them wicked for not bothering.
Your story about them being relatively wealthier I believe was told from a place of spite and jealousy.

You didn't come from a broke background too, I mean how many people can afford to buy themselves a car talk more of give their child one after graduation.

I don't think you like your in-laws very much and frankly you don't love your wife either. You're bent on becoming more successful than them not solely for your own good but to rub it in their nose.

I don't know the relationship you have with them but I can bet it's a toxic one. Who gets angry at a father sending his daughter money married or not. This silly African mentality of men owning their wives is what's driving this narrative. What do you even mean by "luxury food item"

You cannot bar your wife from having a relationship with her family before you they were there and the day you will slap her (which I believe is not very far) they'll be there to take her away from you.

I sincerely hope you find the courage to tell yourself the truth, see beyond your pride and understand the kind of relationship you want to have with your in-laws.

You must hate people who are honest. What the OP has written is nothing but an honest admission. That a man had the thought to slap his wife, but choose otherwise does not make him a devil rather a wise man irrespective of what conditions that made him to act otherwise. In fact, I enjoyed his writing and considered that part as one of his skills of story telling that indicates how angry he was.

Kokaine:
superb!!!

i screen grabbed this post for future references. i wish we could have a whatsapp group where issues like this are laid bare and resounded regularly by experienced people. nice words bro!

It is very important especially for Bachelors and men in early marriages. At one point in a marriage comes the adversity. To weather that storm and come out successfully together, is what I define as a good marriage.

Kolababe:
Hello bro, let me tell you something. Don't accept what someone here said abt ur wife not loving you. She loves you. Instead think abt what another person said that, she ran to her parents cos she was used to luxury. The fact that she still stayed with u is enough proof that she actually loves you. See her occasional nagging and being married into such a family as a life long motivation to be a better man

I agree with you 100%. Those making that kind of statements are those not living with a woman. If she didn’t love him, she would have left for her parent’s home. After all, they were more willingly to take her. She loves him, but also wants comfort. Would you blame or fault her for her decision to meet her parents, no I won’t. I would however blame the in-laws for not acting matured. Well, life can be ironic. So glad the OP got himself back.

Trivia:
Much obliged. There is nothing new under the sun. Someone somewhere would've experienced this circumstance. I wish I had learnt from that person earlier. My hope is that after reading of my experience, a young man looking to get married to a girl from a wealthy house will open his eyes more. It is not as some may think- that its a meal ticket. Unless that man is ready to sell his 'manhood' and wear the skirt in his house, he has his work cut out for him

You are a matured and wise man and possibly have deep analytical skills, because you were so close in losing your family. What you have written is nothing short but the truth. Wealth is very important with happiness and respect in a family. Infact a man with wealthy may choose to act the way he wants. I do not blame your wife from rushing to her parents for support, but I would blame her parents for not rendering sound advice, being that they too struggled before becoming rich. Also, they should be more matured party. I am also glad you were able to get your game going on and now you must quadruple your hustle because you know the outcome if you lose sight of the goal. Still have a healthy conversation with your wife about how you felt and how disappointed you were. If you can, have a healthy discussion with your in-laws, now that the respect is back. If possible, limit your in-laws interference in your family affair.

Learnt from your experience too. I wish you the best of luck and a fulfilling marriage.

Apination:
It was never about the money, it's a simple case of character which u pointed out at the end. Marriage is between two individuals first before the families, you are married to your wife and not her family and families are not supposed to interfere in ur affairs but intervene which would be as a result of you asking for their assistance if needed. I swear, I would have sent her packing for blatantly undermining me if I were in your shoes cos it's first your decision as to how your children are to be trained based on your available means and then secondly your wife's support in bringing it to light. Comfort though is relative but such relativism is situational and your wife has no excuse as for whatever action she took which did not align with it. Your wife clearly doesn't respect u as a person but only what u can bring to the table, your marriage is simply one of convenience.

You Comment like someone who is not married. The poster has given a very valuable advice from his experience. Reading this you can decipher from a man who is matured and understands consequences.

Learn from him

I thought he prayed this exact prayer last year and the year before that. Is this a new re-enactment for 2018?

delugajackson:
I've already done the final detaching tonight. Never again will I be so sunk in love. I've downed a couple of drinks tonight, I just wish I could erase her from my mind entirely.

You don’t need to get drunk to make a decision. If alcohol is required for your decision making, then you need some growing up to do.

It is ironic that this kind of message has found its way to the public and just like every sensationalism in this country, it is being supported by those who either gain directly or indirectly from its impact. It is information like this that continue to allows these fraudsters with bible continue to dupe, molest and pry on vulnerable Nigerians.

First, the Bible has made it clear on what Christianity is all about and what is being practiced today is a far cry from the supposedly dogma, doctrines and guidance from the Bible. The widespread of falsehood and deliberate attempt by pastors to enrich themselves is a direct consequence of failure of public oversight and scrunity by the government and the general public and when one was initiated, there was a public outcry from selfish Christians alike.

Fake pastors and not the church is under intense criticism because the public is rather tired of their overzealousness and ambition to get rich at the expense of their congregations. These god of men and their cohorts want the status quo to remain so they can flourish in wealth. They are worried consistent criticism is a risk to their material wealth. They preach of an everlasting wealth in then spirit world (heaven), but live in affluence and enjoy the best life can offer on earth. They advice their members to call on their God for security, but are bricked protected by armed security personnel - “who are they deceiving?”.

May I remind the writer of this publication that Pastors and Religious Clergies have been responsible for some of the privileges we enjoy in life today. The same bible that these fraudsters quote and twist sermons from was made possible by Rev Martin Luther. Also, Dr Martin Luther King, another pastor, gave his life fighting for the civil right movement in the United States. Desmond Tutu, a nobel peace winner, was at the fore front in the fight against apartheid and economic segregation of black people in South Africa. What has our pastors and supposedly men of god done for Nigeria? What sacrifices have they paid to ensure Nigeria moves in the right direction? They spew false prophesies based on media predictions, they dine and wine with these politicians, collect offerings/tithes and also assist to launder illicit funds for politicians.

In all honesty, these men are part of the problem in Nigeria because they preach falsehood and false hope by telling Nigerians to keep praying away their problems. They keep telling Nigerians that things would be better and God will come and whisk away our problems. These falsehood have been in widespread since the inception of Nigeria. Yet, a writer is bold enough to say pastors are not government of Nigeria. Do they not enable these politicians? Do these pastors not allow them seek votes in their respective churches? Are pastors not blind nowadays to the moral bankruptcy of the country, that questions are not being asked about the source of wealth. They all claim all wealth are from God, even those obtained fraudulently.

The writer is a disgrace to our modern society. A disgrace to intelligent Nigerians, who can see in between these falsehoods and intentions of these pastors. A disgrace to those with proper moral obligations to ensure that Nigeria progresses. These wrongdoings must be corrected by pastors adhering to true doctrines as stated in the Bible, rather than conscripting salvation to the amount per bank account of each congregants.

Nonsense!

Very typical of Nigerians. We celebrate mediocrity. Paddy has earned celebrity and entrepreneur status by failing to acquire a company. Whilst in the US, people of his wealth and family connection category are counting their portfolio

Why can’t we separate white from brown. Lebanese are not white people. Abi Nigerians no know white people again?

What’s his business? Is buying a car on loan now an offense? Though Kcee in his music maybe exaggerating his wealth, but he is a hardworking young man. At least we know what Kcee does for a living. Who is Husipuppi and what does he do for living? Please I don’t want to hear hustling. I need to know what activity he is engaged in that is giving him this enormous wealth.

Nonsense. It is because Nigeria has lost its moral grounds that criminals can now flaunt their wealth. Please what’s the nonsense with Nigerian big boy and socialite. That is a criminal speaking and he should be behind bars.

bluebutton:
Speaking from a legal point of view... Indonesia has a high rate of death sentences via lethal injections.
If you go there, you may end up in a prostitution ring and end up just like him.
Before being convicted, he must have been given a fair hearing. For offences racking up to 14yrs and above, he must have committed a serious felony.
You are 29 +15 that's like 44. Almost 1 year away from the menopause mark. You want to spend your life waiting for a felon?
The truth is, yes you obviously love him and would catch that grenade for him but my dear 15years to life is not a grenade. It's a flipping nuclear missile. You fell in love with a man not a criminal. When you look at him, you remember the man not the criminal but in prison, he is a criminal not the man you loved. The high rate of committing an offence in an indonesian jail can make him serve a life sentence.
You don't need prayers for God has given you the tool to sort this out. It is called a BRAIN.
Send him postcards. If he loves you, he will ask you to move on with your life. I know I would. Except if he is selfish.
By the way, 29 is like 1/3 of your life span gone. You want to waste another 1/3 be my guest.
May God give you wisdom.

It’s a choice. If she wants to wait or not. However, she needs to seek how to improve her own life because her story seems to me like she is waiting for a man to help her with her life.

dominique:
Keep loving him, Keep praying, Get pregnant for him and let him pay your bride price yadayadayada. They all seem to be avoiding the big picture here which is, THE MAN IS A FREAKING CRIMINAL!!! None of them even bothered to ask if he is guilty of the crime he was convicted for or not. Abi they didn't read that part ni? The sets of characters that post on this ****ist Facebook group tho, odikwa shady.

I carefully went through the post more than once to see if he was framed or wrongly convicted, nothing of such. So she's very much aware that her lover is a criminal yet she wants to waste 15 years of her life waiting for him because he sends money to her and her mum. The kind of desperation that is eating into our ladies about abroad based men is getting disturbing.

This is the Nigeria we live in now. Nobody is telling that lady the harsh truth. She has not sat down to analyze her future. Yes, Love is sweet and interesting, but it is not marriage and doesn’t pay the bills. 15 years is a long time waiting for a criminal who will be deported back to Nigeria without a dime. If he was truly interested in settling down, he should have gotten a legitimate line of work or business.

A leopard never change its colour!

That's who Buhari was, is and will continue to be.



And some people still believe that we're still in democracy o, I'm not deceiving myself, this is not democracy but demonstration of craziness by Buhari and his party!

I don’t think Buhari is interested in this. That man is battling with his health. It is those around him using his power and influence that are going about with this devilish and witch chasing. They are the ones worried about what would happen to them if Buhari leaves, but they forget to know that even if Buhari wins second term, he will surely leave Aso rock

That is a young man. Those cars maybe for the family and not necessarily his own.

angelboy01:
Some people spend thousands on olosho everyday, drinking, partying and clubbing. Why not spend some in the house of God too. Even if pastors na scammer we should try and consider them too.

How do u consider a rich man with abundance of wealth and material possession and you subsistent income?

Zoharariel:
Good news! Now is the time for TSTV & other indigenous coys to buckle-up.

This is a huge opportunity that should be exploited by both indigenous Nigerian companies and the Nigerian government. There is a huge need to break the monopolistic power of Multichoice and ensure a level field for operation if they ever want to operate in Nigeria. However, I doubt this will be successful as Multichoice understands the Nigerian game and know how to play it effectively. Nigeria still remains a huge significant market for them, losing it would be a huge blow

NA WA O.

THOUGHT this was banned years back?!

Spraying on the floor. This is the same as collecting

This lady wants to bring #metoo Movement to Nigeria

dlondonbadboy:
I went to my village this Christmas and there was no light for the 2weeks I stayed there.....only the senators house had light...


Yet, the fool wants to contest for Governorship...These politicians take Nigerians for granted. They think we are fools...cos majority of Nigerians are sarrkis.

Yes Nigerians are fools and the political elites know this.

The extent at which these false prophets and the goons go to make you wonder what there objectives are. Please look at both ladies properly - what is the resemblance? Forget about complexion. Look at both eyes and nose. Do you notice any resemblance? I don’t think so.

Also, bleaching your skin and fixing nails is now a direct employment contract with the devil? Which means we have a lot of people working for the devil then

There is the need to dismiss this lady as an actress because she has recently not made any movie, but continues to tour the world promoting nothing but her body. I think at this moment that right words should be used appropriately to label her. We do not want young ladies to get mixed up with the idea that Nollywood can grant you access to this lifestyle.

Chinese animations are now of great importance and educational value to African kids? I see you guys

When information is distorted greatly to fit the narrative. Only 4 Bank stocks are reliable to invest in, the rest are junks. Well good enough they listed the Banks - GTb, Zenith, Access Bank and UBA

Tggabby:
I wonder why some people can not just mind their business. They just hate good success story.

I don’t know what success mean to you, but if you don’t achieve your objective, you failed. If celebrating a takeover bid is now presumed to be success, then there is need for reexamination.

I partially agree with the lady. Paddy became an executive director in his father’s company at 29. Many average 29s are still sorting out the tuition fees for university or college. Paddy’s story is not for the average Nigerian. It can be a bragging right for his friends in their elite gathering.

Being from a privileged home plays a long role and determines how you define your own success. E.g Malia Obama, she recent just gained admission into Harvard and she is currently an intern for a high production film studio.

KosiGee:
Old video or not, that woman is very unstable. I pity anyone that would trust and associate with her.

She is to be avoided at all cost. That woman is worse than plague.

Unstable I agree with you. Confused, I don’t think so. Stephanie depicts an average Nigerian, Poor upbringing, broken home and widespread poverty. You saw her mom, hustling in the market. Stephanie is literally the breadwinner in her family. The father abandoned her and her mom. She has struggled and still struggling for any little relevance in this world.

On the other hand, we have a rich powerful pastor, living the good life and can afford the good things life can offer. This is a story of two different class prevalent in our community; the rich against the poor, the powerful against the weak.

If Stephanie was from a decent home, you think the family will watch Suleiman pull those desperate stunts. You think they will watch their daughter go through hell repeatedly. You think the story would turn to Suleiman vs Nigerian Govt/Pastors. I don’t think so.

We may never understand or appreciate what that girl has gone through or what she is going through now only those close to her. However, we owe it as a duty to call out these fraudulent pastors with power before their atrocities come closer home.

BluntBoy:
Watch the video.

And stop that nonsense about not taking sides. I know you as a one of the chronic pastor worshippers.

You don’t need to respond to everybody. Are you not aware that there is a dedicated team from Apostle’s church. Do you think you have the time and energy to engage each and everyone of them?

You have made up your own opinion about this. What’s the point arguing with people paid to launder the Apostle’s image. Move on!

BushWickBill:
And yet all these aren't still somehow enough to convince folks that there is fishy play from the Apostle

It's no wonder people like Freeze keep taking stabs at these foolish sheeple and their pastor mentors.

That's how that idi0t called Fatoyinbo is still to give his "robust response" nearly four years after.

What response does that one want to give. I even respect him more. He shut his mouth and focus on his church business. He is enjoying his life and his members’ money and probably sleeping with another one. Suleiman and Stephanie should just please leave us alone. There are serious issues to discuss in Nigeria
