This is an expired liner! What your mates are saying now is jet that, jet this.

I bet you many of these deacon(ess)s can and do employ those that employed you!
When a professor becomes a child of God, the ignorant illiterates label him unexposed. Same way the poor folks have nothing ton say to the visibly successful who turns Christ.

12000 crooks and 4000 scammers, church business is booming, church has become employment Agency.

Crooks, Armed robbers, Hopeless and jobless people, Rapists and kidnappers are wellcomed to apply as long as you claim to be born again.

Not true. Most are employed or run their businesses. I know pastors who are permanent staff of ExxonMobil and Co. It's a personal decision and not borne out of unemployment. The camaraderie by members won't have such an individual (ordained pastors) to be unemployed in the first place.

One thing i dont like about redeem ordinance is that they don't do background check on these people. Just go to bible school and graduate and you're automatically a pastor/deacon even if you've got the worst behavior
Is it really that easy? shocked

And what does that tell u? Their appointment is not based on the bible. 1 Timothy 3:1- spells out the qualities of one who oversees other in the congregation:
"This statement is trustworthy: If a man is reaching out to be an overseer, he is desirous of a fine work. 2 The overseer should therefore be irreprehensible, a husband of one wife, moderate in habits, sound in mind, orderly, hospitable, qualified to teach, 3 not a drunkard, not violent, but reasonable, not quarrelsome, not a lover of money, 4 a man presiding over his own household in a fine manner, having his children in subjection with all seriousness 5 (for if any man does not know how to preside over his own household, how will he care for the congregation of God?), 6 not a newly converted man, for fear that he might get puffed up with pride and fall into the judgment passed on the Devil. 7 Moreover, he should also have a fine testimony from outsiders so that he does not fall into reproach and a snare of the Devil".
Ur observation is captured in verse 7.

Ignorant cum children of perdition don't understand deep things of God. For those on the Lord's side, don't be disappointed on negative comments, it's not unexpected in these last days. Gate of hell shall not prevail over the church. Ride on RCCG. Welcome, bashing of all kinds.

I believe in science, I believe in evolution. I believe in Nate Silver and Neil deGrasse Tyson, and Christopher Hitchens. I cannot believe in a supreme being who weighs in on the number of priests ordained or the number of churches or mosques without any significant result to show for it in the country. I don't believe a billion Indians are going to hell. I don't believe we get cancers to learn life lessons and that young people die early cos God needs angels. I think it's bullshiit and on some level that we all know that. I understand religion makes it easier to deal with the random things in life we can't yet explain, or the random shitty things that happen to us. And I wish I could get on that ride, I'm sure I would be happier. But I can't, so can't other rational people. Feelings aren't enough, I need it to be real.
Preach! Hope you don’t mind if I borrow this...

When we begin to look at personalities, rather than the bible, we easily become misled. No matter how big a supposed "man of God" is, that is not the test of him being good or righteous. The bible remains the true test of righteousness and not the size of a man of God's church

Why are you so serious about this work things, do you think it is by how much you work, you earn.my brother even though you go to work from January to December that doesn't make you richer more than those that have time for: holiday, God, fun e.t.c let this get into your skull, that is not by working hard, but working smart.

Good development
Re: Adeboye Ordains 12,811 Deacons And Deaconesses, 4,060 Assistant Pastors (photos) by skana28(m): 7:35am On Aug 08, 2019
It is good to ordain/ commission people to work in the house of God. However, my reservation is 12,000+huh Last year was 11,000+.

Anyways, from what I know, vocation call is not just knowing the bible inside and out nor learning how to preach and pray. It is way more than that.

Within two years, we have over 23,000 persons ordained in one church?. Some churches doesn't even have that number as the entire strength of the church.

Speaking from an Orthodox Church in Nigeria, I am sure they don't have up to 5,000 ordained priests/deacons in a calendar year even with its enormous strength. That goes to show the thorough training and scrutiny before one is worthy of ordination.

The point is, ordained pastors/priests/deacons(ness) represent the church. It is important to conduct adequate background checks and trainings among other salient requirements. Else, the reputation of the church is in the line of fire.
