Kumuyi: My Sons Will Not Succeed Me, Deeper Life Is Not A Family Inheritance by press9jatv(op): 1:48pm On Jun 10

The Founder and General Superintendent of Deeper Christian Life Ministry, Pastor William Kumuyi, has firmly dismissed any possibility of his biological sons succeeding him as leader of the church, stressing that the ministry belongs to Jesus Christ and not to any individual or family.

Speaking on the issue of church succession, the respected cleric said he has no authority to transfer leadership of the church to his children because Deeper Life is not his personal possession.

According to Kumuyi, the church is God’s institution and should never be treated like a family inheritance.

“The reason why I will never hand over Deeper Life Church to any of my biological sons is because the church doesn’t belong to me. It’s Jesus’ church. Nobody has the right to hand it over to his son,” he said.

The veteran preacher also pointed to examples from the early Christian church, noting that prominent apostles did not pass leadership positions to their relatives.

“Peter did not hand over to his son, Apostle Paul had no son or wife, and John did not hand over the church to his sons,” Kumuyi added.

This is how it's supposed to be. RCCG, Winners, etc should take note.

Good point, the church belongs to God. If He deems your children fit, His will be done.

True man of God from day one. The time Nigerians stopped valuing Churches like deeper life was when the decline started
Re: Kumuyi: My Sons Will Not Succeed Me, Deeper Life Is Not A Family Inheritance by EmperorIsaac(m):
Those sons are not 10 years old. What if God asks one of them to succeed you?

Doctors' sons later aspire to be doctors; lawyers' sons; engineers' sons...In fact, it's the joy of parents to see their sons succeed them. Jimmy Swaggert's sons succeeded him. I think he owes those boys some apology. I see no wisdom (I say this respectfully) in this declaration since it's ultimately going to be God's decision.

Even Jesus wanted His disciples to succeed him here on earth. In fact, God in the Old Testament specifically asked for the dedication of a particular tribe.

Hmmm 🤔🤔🤔

Saying I WILL NOT.......

What if Jesus said you should.... ?

Baba, you don't have the final say, because the church is not for you...

True talk


Some selfish pastors we soon response to the good talk to defend their church business.

Good one from Kumuyi, that's how it's supposed to be... Anointing is not blood transmitted
Re: Kumuyi: My Sons Will Not Succeed Me, Deeper Life Is Not A Family Inheritance by Babatunjo: 6:47pm On Jun 10
What about the paper work. Who controls the finances, decisions. Who heads the board of the church etc.


He's probably realised that you don't need your sons to mount the pulpit for them to be in charge or involved in the affairs of the church.

RCCG, Winners and other big boys in Christendom will borrow a leaf from this approach....
Re: Kumuyi: My Sons Will Not Succeed Me, Deeper Life Is Not A Family Inheritance by Sensiblerealist(m): 6:47pm On Jun 10
Others can do so but it will be very difficult in RCCG unless they wan break the church into 100,000 pieces.
And I think the children that are presently in the church administration do not even have the encompassing charisma to lead the church.

If your son doesn't succeed you, your wife will. That's what they always say. When they die finish e go do everybody like film trick.

We are coming, religion sef is about to be wiped off the face of the earth. Many are already awaken on Tiktok and many other platforms globally. Churches and mosques will enter into forgetfulness like the temple of Artemis and Zeus in this Aquarius age.


Otem Erectus 226:1-30

1. When otem had shut his eyes in meditation on the fifth day of the seventh month, he began to fly in the inner universe. And he flew until he had seen Atum. And Atum said, come with me and I shall show you how we captured many of the gods who are my brothers. And otem saw a period in the past.
2. And he saw how the gods of findings were gathered in a place, getting ready for the psychospiritual battle. For thousands of them were ready to fight for the freedom and mind slavery of the world. For it is time to bring humanity to the age which is called Aquarius.
3. And otem said, who shall you fight against? And Atum said, we are ready to fight against all the gods of religion who insist that the minds of humans should be continually enslaved. For religion shall limit the rate of growth of science.
4. Therefore, we are prepared to make all gods who love to enslave the minds of humanity drop their ambitions and set the world free from mind slavery.
5. Now otem said, let me go with you to see how this shall be done. Now Atum and otem flew until they had reached a place where many gods are gathered. And when they saw otem, they came to him and said, otem of truth, welcome.
6. And Olorun and Ogene and Chuku and many other gods of Aferk stepped further to otem and said, you have been empowered with the powers of all good gods and with their wisdom and understanding shall you operate.
7. You are greater than all gods in intelligence and knowledge. Now have we chosen you O otem, go and set Aferk free. Now Mother Earthus came also with Aluna and Ishtar and thousands of goddesses, both of Aferk and of the whole earth. And they said, blessed is otem, the god of all histories of humanity.
8. The gods hear his name and tremble. The people who torment others in the name of witches and wizards hear his name and flee. Yahweh, Allah, Moloch, Gaol, Eshu and all gods of bad religion and mind slavery hear his name and bow.
9. otem, fakir Atomos, go and quickly set Aferk free from gullibility before they are turned into animals in their minds. Go and free them from the hostages of Jehoshua, Yiga, Shamshin, Krisht, Bonkee, Wilhem and all manner of gods who make them slaves and deceive them on the face of the earth.
10. Who shall study the histories of otem and fear death? Whose mind shall be so strong to read the truth and still have joy reading the lies in the books of religion? Even Vishnu have said, let the truth of the words of otem prevail.
11. otem, the adopted son of all gods and goddesses of the earth, stay here until we have fought and won all the gods in a psychospiritual battle. You shall see how we shall defeat them.
12. Now otem stood and watched how the gods went farther away from him. And as they went farther, it seemed to him as if they were still standing before him, for distance was made into an illusion as if it no more existed. And it was as if a screen was showing the thing to otem.
13. And otem saw how all gods of religion gather and say, we shall not let humanity and dwellers of the earth have rest of mind. And Allah said, I cannot let go my impact upon the earth.
14. Now many homos who died religious had been made the same with the gods. And they had almost equal powers with the gods. And they said also, the religion which we practise on earth must not be defeated.
15. Now Yahweh said, what shall my great name become in the mouths of the people of the earth if i agree that religion should be made of none effect in their minds? Shall they not curse my name forever?
16. And Eubius said, what shall happen to the history of Krishtanite which I have written? I shall rather protect it, or else I shall be found the greatest liar in history. And Mirza and Moloch and Eshu and many other gods said, the fun of the earth shall be lost when they do not call upon our names anymore.
17. And their continual weeping to the gods, being fun to us, shall be a thing of the past. No, we shall not allow this. Now while they spoke, the gods who wanted science and development in the world came and said, are you ready for the battle? And they said, we are ready.
18. And the battle began.
19. And otem heard voices and saw many gods how they did all manner of inexplicable things. And there were vacuums, but only otem and the gods of findings saw the vacuums.
20. And when the gods of religion had entered into the vacuums, they were not seen anymore.
21. And otem awoke. And his pupils had broken the door of his house when he did not appear in the school that day. And they had done many things to revive him.
22. And otem said, I saw all the things which you do to my body to rescue me. Why do you sit on my chest and blew my nose? Why do you disturb my sweet sleep? For the words which are made flesh are currently being conquered.
23. And henceforth, all sacred texts shall be seen as the things useful for refuse dump. And they shall lose the powers behind them, because all gods who insist on continual deception of the world through their threatening and motivational books are currently being held captive in vacuums.
24. Now for a space of three months, otem continually saw how the gods stepped into vacuums and were not seen anymore.
25. Now when eighty-nine days was complete, the gods of findings began to carry the vacuums in their hands, dumping them into a larger vacuum. For the vacuums began to become visible when they had carried them. And they dumped more than two hundred and fifty nine thousand vacuums into a larger one.
26. And they said, otem of truth, we have overcome the gods by vacuums, so go and make known all the things which you have seen. For we imagined the vacuums with our thoughts for the capture of the gods who are antihumans.
27. And in the vacuums shall they be for a thousand years. This is the spiritual cage of all gods who oppose development. And focus shall be shifted from the words in the books to the thoughts of the heads.
28. And a period shall come when the pastors and the priests of many religions shall begin to misbehave. For their gods are encaged. And the minds of many homos shall begin to go after the truth within themselves rather than the lies written in the books of lies.
29. Now otem, we have done our own part, therefore go and do your part also. Be not lazy in the compilation and interpretation of the texts of histories which we have given to you.
30. And we shall breathe life into the history which you shall write and it shall live on in the minds of the people, rather than religious texts. And humanity shall begin to use their own brains, worshipping no god while they do good to themselves.

Children inheriting religious institutions is one of the reductive reasons they decline after the death of the founder .

This should be the case with every church but for those who sees it a merchandize or transactional institution will never follow through this path... They rather hand it over to their children that are synonymous to serpent than those who will win souls to God.

I don't know about his charity organization, though.

RCCG is global church and not a family church. The church has been divided into continents each headed by a continental overseer. This is not the profile of a family church.
