Pastor Paul Adefarasin Denies Holding A Gun In Viral Video by TopNotchTrends(op): 7:59am On Jun 08, 2025
Senior pastor of House on the rock church, Pastor Paul Adefarasin was the subject of a trending video in which he appeared to brandish what looked like a gun at a content creator "YL_luxury".

He received a lot of backlash from all quarters and he dropped and official statement saying that he was not holding a gun.

According to his post and I quote

Dear Family,
Trusting that this meets you well, winning and on top of the tests of life.

You might be aware of a video which has been circulating on social media showing me in what some have misunderstood as brandishing a firearm. I want to assure you of this — that, that was certainly not a firearm, and at no point did I point such at anyone. We understand the concern that this accusation may have caused, and we will speak briefly to this mischief during the 9:00 am service tomorrow. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Yours truly.
Paul Adefarasin.
From what he said, he will be addressing this during his service today.

From checks, it appears to be that what he was holding was not a gun but actually a stun torch. This begs a question why he will be holding a stun torch at the said time.

While we await what he will call what he held, lets compare a stun torch to what he was holding.

Re: Pastor Paul Adefarasin Denies Holding A Gun In Viral Video by moscow007:
Definitely a stun torch.

But why?

Well in Nigeria, we need to do all we an to protect and safeguard ourselves, then leave the rest to God

He wasn't holding a gun
Re: Pastor Paul Adefarasin Denies Holding A Gun In Viral Video by Kobicove(m): 9:38am On Jun 08, 2025
His major mistake was rolling down his window to reveal his identity, he should have just ignored the content creator who was taking a video of his car especially since the car had no number plate undecided

Now because of this indiscretion he will spend the next 1 month explaining... grin
Re: Pastor Paul Adefarasin Denies Holding A Gun In Viral Video by Harddiskng(m):
Then he should be bold enough to say what he was holding.

If it wasn’t a firearm, was it an offensive weapon? Yes! What is a pastor doing with that? Aside that there were too many things wrong in the video to show his level of pride and impunity.

Beware of people that give you half-stories to try to play on your intelligence and vindicate themselves, they are fundamentally dishonest people.

It is something he wants to address in church to draw traffic to his church like a content maker? Smh.

If a so called esteemed “Man of God” is carrying an offensive weapon then we the ordinary citizens should be carrying machine guns angry but I assure you that Nigeria has not gotten to that.

Authorities better move fast to address that negative sensitization by this so-called man of god, before people under his influence that don’t know right from wrong think this negative example is worthy of emulation angry

Re: Pastor Paul Adefarasin Denies Holding A Gun In Viral Video by UkoAnnang(m): 9:41am On Jun 08, 2025
cheesy


What was that?

And, why is he using his church for this particular publication? This is his personal affair and doesn't concern the church, let him talk to the public directly and leave his church behind in his personal affair.
Note I am not condemning him using a gun if at all he can us it, Nigeria need to protect themselves these days

Re: Pastor Paul Adefarasin Denies Holding A Gun In Viral Video by dfrost: 9:42am On Jun 08, 2025
So he can't say what he was holding? After all this lengthy message to 'his family'?

shocked

A gun is a device that propels a projectile using pressure or explosive force. So it may not be fatal but can cause harm? Yes.

Waiting for his robust response like that his Ilorin counterpart that we are still waiting for till today.
Re: Pastor Paul Adefarasin Denies Holding A Gun In Viral Video by gohf: 9:42am On Jun 08, 2025
No one should say he did that to "protect" himself or because he was scared when he is not a girl or doesn't he preach "fear not". If someone like him can fear then what should the rest of you do

A wealthy person should not leave his personal security to chance!

He needs that because
……..he is a scammer who sells what he can’t use since he is faithless.

He wasn't holding a gun. End of story!
That's what he was accused of...

If the authorities are not complaining about whatever he was holding, then all the noisemakers on social media should shut up...

Is it because he is pastor or what?

Abeg make people rest and get a life...

Again, if the authorities are not complaining then you guys should get lost or whatever

The video is as real as can be!
Re: Pastor Paul Adefarasin Denies Holding A Gun In Viral Video by HisSexcellency(m):
That's a stun torch... He probably doesn't move around with security guards like other top pastors do, so he keeps the torch with him in case he needs to defend himself from any threat. And from the video, the torch did just that. The Youtuber stepped back immediately he saw the stunt torch grin
Re: Pastor Paul Adefarasin Denies Holding A Gun In Viral Video by Dogalmighty17: 9:46am On Jun 08, 2025
Every week these pastors keep stepping in one shit or another. But I see nothing wrong in what he did.

Ooh... he's a wealthy person, not a man of God. Makes sense.

There you have it brethren. There goes our service topic for today

Mr. PA is not a man of god, rather a wealthy man. grin

I would hold a bomb if I were him. Too many criminals in Lagos state. Rich people need to protect themselves from any threat.
