MhizzAJ:
Deeper life and their doctrines

They've forgotten that these doctrines are man made

Why in God's name will they tell their members not to watch television and yet they use projectors in their various parishes to view the general overseer's messages

Some of those doctrines are just too extreme

They are only trying to keep up with Titus 2:7

EgigbaOvie:
I agree.

guess OAM4J and co agreed, supported with two fantastic pictures.

Moderator OAM4J, lalasticlala and anothers, Happy Sunday o.

OAM4J
Moderators take this to the front-page so many will see it. I actually don't like people talking about what they don't really know well.
I do tell people, if you think a church isn't comfortable for your liken, it's better to leave. Leave without trying to take people with you or try pulling it down. Since you didn't build the church you can't pull it down no matter how you try.

Change is the only constant phenomena, however the word of God is not allowed to change since God does not change. Cheers.

Check out for fact where you aren't cleared or where I'm not correct.


Deeper Christian Life Ministry was established in 1987 to formalise Deeper Life Bible Church (DLBC) started in 1973 by a mathematical Don, W. F. Kumuyi bore 1941.
Got born again in 1964.

As a man who lived his youthful years going to church without being fulfilled because of the shallow massages been preached, decided to create time from his lecturing work to dig deeper into the word of God with 15 people who desired to know more.

Their aim wasn't to form a church as there were no Sunday service as at then, (everyone goes to their church on Sunday) only Bible study on Mondays. However this change when they eventually turned it to a church and later a ministry.

The main reason for its formation has not changed from "Your Spiritual Welfare is Our Concern". Their aim is to go deeper in the things of God, hence the name deeper life. So whatever is necessary to maintain the focus is welcome, hence the church doctrine.

The church has 22 doctrines which they emphasis every meeting days, however there are other unwritten doctrines which also help in upholding the holiness nature of the church.

Yeah HOLINESS! People say the members of this church are claiming to be holier than others, sorry it's not their fault. They are told to do everything everyday to be holy, because it's the only passport to making Heaven at the end of their life on earth. The Bible says follow peace with all men and holiness without which no man will see the Lord.

Now, to make sure holiness is pursued to the end, certain things which are not evil on its own but has a tendency of evil are to be avoided. The Bible says abstains from every appearance of evil. 1 Thessalonians 5:22.

Some of these things are as follows :

1:- Television. Then television was the major source of phonography, contradicting adverts etc. So, to avoid certain things, don't watch. However, with the advancement of technology, Internet and phones, television became a child’s play. You know better now.... Live broadcasting of the gospel.

2:- Opposite sex visitation. The church doesn't encourage opposite sex visiting each other, WHY? To avoid Fornication. This gave room to one of the strict doctrine of the church on marriage. It got to a point that if you tell the marriage committee that you've visited the one you want to marry, that the church won't wed you people again..... This is what the pastor intend to change (before he leaves earth) ie. Your wedding can't just be stopped because of things that can be overlooked (didn't lead to Sin).

3:- Dressing Pattern. Yeah Dressing! For holiness sake, everyone must cover their unclothedness. No sensitive part of the body is allowed to be seen raw skin, see through or by shape. Dressing for holiness and for smartness at work is what drives dressing pattern. Anything aside these are not allowed.

4:- Drinking of Alcohol. Nothing is wrong with drinking moderately as encourage in the Bible but to avoid being drunk it's not encourage in the church. Alcohol has done more harm than good. Many can't control what they take in hence gets drunk often. Like you know, people see drunks as irresponsible people.... And who wants to teach their children to be drunk? Not deeper life people. I like Gen 9:21 and Prov 31:4,6

5:- Money. Money answereth all things. Yeah MONEY. You need money to run an organization/ministry. However money isn't the church priority. They preach less about it and don't emphasis it much. Tithes and offerings and vows are the only mean of raising money in the church, and all this means are thought to be done willingly and cheerfully. No register is kept for any giver.

In conclusion, the church isn't the world. Things mustn't be done to please the world lovers. The mission of the church is to bring people to God.

Tell your pastor to tell you more of God's kingdom and how to get there after life here on earth.
God bless us all.

so what are you wanting for

lol

This she his first love which the Bible says must be cherished?

Heard he has children, where are they?

SoNature:
Just like Mr Akpabio said, 'We can't be doing the same thing over and over again and be expecting a different result.' This is true and it also explains why the south should unite and call for restructuring before 2019 elections.

Restructuring can be implemented in phases so that the Nigerian state isn't overwhelmed or even collapse.

We may do it like this:

1. Police should be run by states but watched by a Federal regulator, police service commission, to prevent state governments abuse of it
2. Power sector be handed over to states
3. Resource Control be left to states
4. Infrastructure left for states to control
5. No need for regions. States should be run by state governors. Any state that can't sustain itself after 10 years should be merged with where it was created from. Regionalism may not work because of cultural differences in North Central
6. Federal Government controls major bodies like the military, customs, immigration, etc.
7. All Federal ministries, departments and agencies scrapped
8. The EFFC should be made independent with statutory power to probe (without prosecuting at the moment) all governments in power.
9. Most importantly, Nigerians should be encouraged to love this country and ourselves because restructuring can also engender tribalism

Fingers don dey pain me

MhisTahrah:

Was expecting to see the damages in different pictures but ended up seeing same pic.

people should learn to give factual information

you saw it ba?

I doubt if this can stop him from embarking on another trip very soon....

is the governor involve?

Dereformer:
You are twisting it again. hannah gave samuel because she has samuiel. She did not give samuel to receive double or tripple of samuels. That is the point Pasor Abel is trying to pass across.

Any body that tells you to give so that God will give you back is a criminal. In fact, Abel said you give because you have not because you want to receive.

A friend invited me to a church one sunday. The pastor, after preaching called for those that will God N150,000. According to him, God specifically told him that that blessings attached to the N150,000 will be received that week. He encouraged every member of the church to key into the vision even if it means borrowing.

I told my self that the pastor is a criminal.

yes! this pastor did this in his church the day I attended.... when it was time for offering.... the first set of givers were those that want to give certain amount of money.... set by set till it got to a time where he said whatever you have come and give.... believe me I know what I saw....

Mucokey:
Twisting things more.. . I cannot just blindly hail him cos he still succeeded in convincing me not, since he conclusively still says that him himself still can't stop giving his money to the church.
I ve once worshiped in his church @uyo during my undergraduate days. I still remember how he's praising one American preacher who he claimed has a private jet n thus makes that private jet his mobile church sort of. Jah only sanctifies us all

exactly. just don't know what to say about him.... he preaches more on giving than any topic....

I went to his church in d morning and refuse to go back in the evening....

this pastor major topic is wealth.... I'm surprised he is saying this...

fake what ??
Because you saw him healthy after several days you then concluded that he faked his been hospitalized.... That guy was actually beating with bruises...

continue I know you are an APC Bello
