Lol, use your own money to build industries na. Many of you use your money to drink, gamble, lavish on girls and japa, but become professors on how a church should spend its money. Do you have more emoloyees than the church or person that you are giving advice or is it order to?
Don’t mind those people sense is really far from them. They can attend secular concerts at O2 arena and not see it as wastage of money but talk trash when private citizens do what govt should be doing…some Nigerians are really dull.

These money could have been used to build industries, take willing people off the streets .

It’s unreasonable to build such a structure to go shout hallelujah and contribute money
People have different business ideas.
As long as customers keep coming and his bank account keeps swelling, no building is too big for one's business empire.
I told my girlfriend on the first of January this year that I'm considering venturing into church business in a few years from now.
And I am very serious about it.
I just need to make enough money to build a flashy church and boom, business has started.
We move!!!

wonderful, another big business center is about to be commissioned. More money for daddy g.o ,more suffering and porverty for gullible members.
only the poor talks about tithe and offering, if I may ask, how much is the tithe and offering of a poor man in a year? Those 20 Naira that you put in an offering basket, in a year can it buy a bag of cement? Not to talk of the help the poor man will receive from the church before the year runs out. Technical speaking the poor is not adding anything to the church but receiving, I can prove it to you. Churches are run by those blessed by God through his servants not poor man offering and tithes.

When he's through building it, he should tell intelligent people like me that he used the money gotten from the sales of his lacklustre spiritual books to build it.
Because we are like his sheepies.
That's why I hate anything religion.
To love religion is to first be brainless.

While I respect bishop David Oyedepo, I am in somewhat doubt about this ark project unless God commanded him verbatim to build it.

Is this project out of ambition, pride or a command of the almighty?

I remember him saying the faith Tabernacle was part of the vision God gave him early in the ministry, is the ark part of it?

Thousand of people make their daily bread from that site, and oyedepo is not your government, that man is an employer of labor, covenant university, landmark university, faith academy, Hebron water/juice covenant printing press, and so many companies and establishment to mention, I've benefited from that man before and I'm grateful to God for that opportunity

they should create a food bank, where you can walk in with , purchased a card for #200,#500 or #1000 for 3 square meals, the card type determine the quality of food but you would at least get 3 square meals, they can even get #0 card for at all at all na him bad, the fees would means supportive for the project with the offering and donations, they can achieve that

black man mentality . You encourage people to keep praying without building industries, factories even farms would have helped reducing the poverty rate.

it is already happening because the Father is being worshipped all over the world, except the seat of the beast (Saudi Arabia). But the word of Christ will still prevail even in the midst of darkness.

I laugh at your ignorance...if 1 million poor drop 20 naira,that is 20 million naira... multiply that by the number of services the church holds in a year and see for yourself how much money they are making...In a country like Nigeria that is the porverty capital of the world,how many rich people are giving to the church? Let's not deceive ourselves,most Nigerians are poor and the church is making most money from them.

In your own little way, how have you improved the lives of the people around you?

It's always easier for some of you to detect other people's faults. But if u were Oyedepo, you would do worse.

Be informed that Oyedepo is also an employer of labour, massive employer at that. Also note that he's not the government and hasn't held any political position before

Like I said, the faith tabernacle was part of the early prophecy about the ministry which he documented.

I not condemning the esteemed bishop about the ark, I just wonder if God spoke to him about it like He did to build faith tabernacle.

The last time it was designed, it was 109,000 capacity. d question wey u suppose to ask be say "Who are the people that inflated it to 120,000 capacity that you heard?" cool
I was at Shiloh 2016 when the unveiling and announcement was made by the Bishop himself, and it was 120,000 capacity

I hope what is happening in the UK to churches built by 18th and 19th centuries Christian leaders won't happen in Nigeria.
Leave building churches and preach Christ.


The biggest cathedral doesn't mean God is present in their midst. Many of these edifices are just TOWER OF BABELS.


May GOD give you understanding of His words.

it’s better to Dey do giveaway than building a place to Dey rip people in form of religion
How will the money increase if you're doing giveaway without working on the place where the money is coming from.

Meanwhile what Oyedepo gives out as scholarship and support for the needy is FAR MORE THAN what many state governments give out to the needy, THIS I KNOW.

..it's an entrepreneur, business men that establish industries..and the government should provide a conducive environment to attract investors, entrepreneurs, business men to establish industries..a conducive environment like constant electricity light supply, good roads network, naira to appreciate and have value, low credit interest rate, fuel, disiel at reduced price... pastor oyedepo is not an investor, entrepreneur,

Well, it depends on how you see it.
Nigeria does not need more churches or mosques, what we need is industries and reform in our educational system and aggressive in research in science and technology.
As far as people are poor, serman will become useless.
Countries that heavily invested on education ,science and technology are mostly peaceful.
More scientists will be the backbone of development which will spring industries
If the people can afford all the good things of life, then, true Christians and Muslims will be seen in the churches and mosques not what we are seeing presently in Nigeria.
Most of the people in our churches and mosques go there because they are poor, and because of a kind of belief system that's attributed to poor education

the haters of truth called nigerian Christians will soon come for you..they tell you if e reach your turn build factory
