THIS GUY is .... i'm sorry to say, is a fool.
you guys have totally forgotten that, the pastors are human being and not has perfect as Jesus u know.
they too always look for a way to get enlightened. so you too you are finding enlightenment that's why you're there.
teachings can never be perfect.
you are to take the ones that is useful to you and throw away the ones that are not.

the ministry of people is different. some is to teach holiness, some to teach on how to give, some is prosperity e.t.c.

and moreover, they didn't force you to give or did they point gun at you to give?
if they are not giving you what you want to hear, go to another place and stop making people feel like the church is diff.

MINISTRY OF EVERYONE IS DIFF.

you judging them, check Romans 2; 1-3

3. Pastor Chris is the orthodoxy
In CE, Pst Chris is the standard; he is the orthodoxy of the word of God. He is in fact treated like God. His words are law. He could cancel engagements, delay marriages and, in my mother’s language, can do and undo!
Everything revolves around him. He has limitless powers and not inhibited by anything.

And what do they say about absolute power corrupts absolutely?

Exactly what you have in the church. No one dares challenge him. In a godly environment, there should have been some enquiry in to the crisis of his marriage with the objective to mend the issues. But no one dares even raise such issues. People like Joe Agbaje are prepared to lie for him. I recall a time when the issue of PST Chris living separately from his wife came up here, Joe Agbaje defended him, claiming that the couple see often and even go on romantic get-away. It was not true. To all intents and purpose, the man abandoned his wife and family in London while gallivanting around the world with his concubines. This was wrong, but who could challenge the KING? The man had also warned members never to discuss pastors and that they should run away where such matters are being discussed. What you have is a situation where people are so afraid to even consider the allegations against him, so as not to be consumed by fire! SMH!!!

With such a context, the man can get away with anything, including polygamy. He can rewrite the bible, claiming that some portions or verses were not clearly written. He can do ANYTHING, and the staunch members and the pastors would defend him. I mean ANYTHING.

They deify him, call him the ‘Jesus in white suit,’ ‘the Jesus of our time’ and such heresies.
Two personal experiences really got me worried.

A. I was in church one day when a leader in a talk show said, “Pst Chris is not only in Ikeja or Lagos. His spirit is even here right now’’. I was shocked by the comments and obvious deification of a mere mortal. But when the pastor came up, he did not rebuke the speaker or said anything about it. I left for home, thinking hard: What has happened to these people?
B. Th other one was during prayer. The person leading the prayer asked us to pray so that the message of PST Chris will take over the world. Message of Pst Chris? I asked myself. I thought we came there because of the gospel/message of Christ? Does Pst Chris have a different message? Of course, I didn’t participate in that prayer but I was shocked that no one saw anything wrong in this, which validated my growing belief that the church was veering out of the Christian lane into something else.

I will stop here for now. But if challenged by the minions of the church, I have more arsenals. Good day and God bless you.

It is not only Christ Embassy that people are not applying wisdom....
I feel shocked these days when I hear pastors pray in the name of the God of #######, and I am baffled.
I know of God if Elijah, God of Moses, God of Abraham etc, not the one that Nigerians have brought about again.

am here to slug it out with Christians alone. Since u re not a christian i think i will have no business explaining anything to u

akagaba:
Op, wake up... as soon as u left, 500 more people walked in so dont come here and disgrace urself. If u have allowed d devil to take a hold of u, then seek deliverance somehwere becus so many lives are being changed and transformed in Christ Embassy. We dont preach sin in CE cuz thats not what God asked us to preach. We rather preach the goodnews of the gospel of our Lord Jesus and thats the gudnews that brings sinners to God.

For money matter, its only a poor man that speaks d way u do. We give big, very very big in CE and thats becuz we serve a big God so deal with ur poverty.

zionmade:
1st paragraph, that is how the church ensures ur spiritual well being. just as a church wont join AS to AS for the fear of reproducing an SS, the church wont join a non tither because they believe his doesnt have financial security in Christ.
ur second paragraph, tell me wat will happen if evans before he was arrested came to church with a brown envelope of 100000 and gave it to support the work of God only for u to find out a week later that a kidnapper gave ur church money, Tell me who should be blamed, or maybe i shud stand before the offering box and ask people how they got the money they wanted to give before u accept it

gidjah:
church matters can be so so complex,I leave them over to the owner of the church Himself.All this churches have one weakness or fault that can be noted in their worship style, none of them is perfect.But we can pick the relevant ones , make use of them and grow spiritually and move on, then ignore the weak styles they offer if we can't help fix them. none of this mogs r perfect even when they choose to show themselves as 'super humans' simply because they are in Christ. Only the head of the church himself alone is most perfect, but all other parts of the body ain't perfect.AND THAT'S WHY U WILL NEVER FIND ANY PERFECTLY RUNNED CHURCH SYSTEM OUT THERE ! it has not yet been established UNTIL CHRIST RETURNS IN HIS GLORY

AlanSugar:
In both paragraphs you miss the point. You know you've missed the point but you don't care. In paragraph 2, the church as a symbol of christ must never condone the act of stealing. Can you then tell me the justification in not returning the stollen cash after having realised that it was the proceeds of a crime. You defend this fraud of a religious sect so blindly, it may just hurt you.

See me see gobe, so in order to have spiritual well-being, you must by all means reach a hight beyond you, hook or crook? Why not just spell it out to him that he must rob a bank to belong!

petra1:
There is no lele. Anybody can post any accusation against another . It's just attention getting things . If you want to leave a church . Leave jeje. If Judas were given opportunity to post . He would have good reason to betray Jesus from his perspective

hysteriabox:
Hmmm.
I can relate to these points. If you havent been close to CE rank and file, you may likely perceive these as unguarded criticism.
But truly, these points are spot on CE

I was there for some time. Everything was Ps Chris or nothing! For like 3 years, the pastor in our branch preached the works of Ps Chris. No sermon was devoid of money, sow, seed, faith giving... I can attest that I was spiritually starved of sound doctrine for those years. Members were living lies-giving testimonies only to closely observe they are struggling like mad. Some were literally gasping to survive. Yet, na to hustle sow.
The last straw- zonal church sent us a bill, we must raise 5 million b4 the end of the month. The church was small, had like 4-6 families and most were struggling. The pastor came up and said all he knows is that we must raise that money aany how cos he cant disappoint his zonal head. The zonal head too had an objective to win award for biggest giver or so. I left and never looked back.
And don't get me started in the loose living.

OlaSammie:
Just imagine what you're supporting. Your previous post is kinda okay but this one is wrong. There is nothing like his ministry is different. If your ministry isn't Jesus,then you're on the wrong track.

MrMcJay:
Read the OP's post, read your post and go sit in one corner to think about your life.

fpeter:
I gave up when I realised that most members practically worship pastor Chris, everyone speaks in tongues, every working class youth is a minister. Including my friend who smokes like a chimney. Fornication and sexual immorality is downplayed as not being a serious sin. My friends vehemently defended the pastor's divorce, they blamed pastor anita, they also alienate themselves from other denominations. The church is like a cult and many of them don't even study the Bible for themselves. Singing a popular hymnal one day and my friend told me that pastor Chris said it was wrong to say that the work of Christ wasn't finished on earth already, my friend who is a minister shares her bed with another married "brother" they swear there's no sin. Lastly, a pastor there went to a strip club with my friends and ended up heading a stripper right on the table, in the presence of everyone....and no he wasn't drunk. My take on the matter is for us to keep praying for relatives who worship there because clearly most of them have lost their way. They've derailed from the true gospel of Christ.
