By a Concerned member/leader in the ministry.


First, I apologize to anyone who
may be offended by this letter
which I have addressed to my close
CEC brethren.
I am the last person
to write against Pst Chris in the
public because I have been blessed
by God through his teachings.
However, after several weeks of
silence on the divorce saga, I am
glad Pst Chris finally spoke about it
during the monthly global
communion yesterday. I am very
concerned about the way this issue
is being handled since inception
more than what actually happened.
If anyone presents concrete
evidence to back the adultery
allegations against Pst Chris, I will
be one of the first few people who
would find a place in my heart to
forgive him for two mains reasons:

(1) He is not God, but human
being like everyone;

(2) for his
unprecedented contributions to the
body Christ, especially through his
teachings.
Outlined below are 7 major
concerns from Pst Chris' response:

1) "Pray for Rev. Anita." Is Pst. Chris
insinuating that Pst. Anita is the
problem, hence, she needs
prayers? Even if she is the
problem, it is very wrong to make
ridicule of your spouse in public. I
think the whole family (father,
mother, children and relatives) are
directly affected by this saga. I
expect him to ask CEC members to
pray for his entire family and not
his wife only. From all indication, I
think Pst Chris needs prayers more
than anyone else. This is a display
of arrogance and pride, which
ultimately leads to destruction.

2) "If you study the scriptures, you
will not find one man of God go
against God, sinning against God."
I respect Pst Chris as a good
teacher. However, I think there are
several men of God who sinned
against God as recorded in the
Bible. Even David (a man after
God's heart) confessed to Nathan
in 2 Sam 12:13 "I have sinned
against the LORD." Nathan replied,
"Yes, but the LORD has forgiven
you, and you won't die for this sin."
Other examples are Adam (Roman
5:12-21), Saul (1Sam 15:24),
Jeremiah (Jeremiah 3:25), Daniel
(Dan 9:, Micah (Micah 7:9), Peter
(Matt 26:74-75), etc.

3)"crazy and stupid allegations....
silly" I have known and followed
Pst Chris for several years. I have
known him to be very cultured,
gentle, and someone who knows
his audience. I was surprised he
used such filthy words while
addressing his members on the
issue yesterday. I think these are
distinguished characteristics of is
angered, frustrated and
nonchalant.

4) "If you are married to a man of
God, it doesn’t make you
automatically mature......But some
people expect the wife of a
minister to definitely be at the level
of that minister and so they may be
looked upon and the expectation
may be like that, but it’s a
positional thing. If a man of God is
married, it doesn’t automatically
mean that the wife of a man of God
is therefore a woman of God.
That’s not the way it is in the Bible.
That’s why you don’t really find the
wives of men of God mentioned in
the Bible. How many of them? Who
was Peter’s wife, did you ever know
her name? You never find that out.
Who was John’s wife? Did you ever
read the name? What about all the
other Apostles? How many of their
names are written in the Bible?" I
believe this was in line with the
speech he gave during a meeting
with Pastors and Deacons in the UK
few months ago.
I believe there is no human
relationship (including marriages)
that doesn't have its own
challenges. I am surprised Pst.
Chris could openly treat or regard
his wife with contempt and
disrespect. I wonder if this is the
same Pst. Anita I know? Is this the
woman that was highly regarded as
"the grace of CEC?" Is this the
woman that was the Vice President
of BLW until lately? Is this the
woman who raised two young girls
on her own in the UK? Is this the
same woman that adores her
husband like no other? Is this the
woman that moved from gym to
library, library to school, school to
pub, etc. to ensure CEC becomes
what it is today in the UK and rest
of EU? Is this the woman that
planted several branches of CEC in
Europe, USA and beyond? Is this
the woman who established
LoveWorld TV station in the UK and
beyond? It seems to me like a
dream. If Pst Anita can be brought
so low like this by the power that
be, who am I! I haven't seen
anyone among pastors in CEC that
are as humble as Pst Anita.
Likewise, I haven't found anyone
that truly loves Pst. Chris in words
and action like Pst. Anita.

5) After Pst Chris finished his
speech, I heard loud cheers both
within the congregation I was
seated and those who were with
him on set. Notably was Pst Joy
Amekhiena, raising her hands up in
jubilation, praise and support. I was
utterly shocked! She is supposed to
be a wife, mother, pastor and close
associate of Pst Anita. Now Pst.
Anita suddenly became a bad
person! I am really disappointed.

6) What was the reason CEC
regional pastors were assembled
and showcased to the whole world
yesterday. We have witnessed
several global communion services,
but this last one was different in
quality and display. I believe the
aim was to create perception in the
minds of the general members that
all is well. Hearing the testimonies
from various pastors about their
achievements in the month of
August, almost made me cry. Some
of the information presented by
the pastors were misleading. Most
notably was Pst Uche Onubogu
(Bermondsey, London), where he
stated that his zone won 10,000
souls through ROR distribution. I
immediately sent a text message to
my friend in his zone to confirm, he
replied by saying "let that pastor
dey lie to the whole world......how
many members do we have in this
zone?" From all indication, it is
obvious Pst Chris, over the years,
has surrounded himself with lots
of sycophants, who act
obsequiously for personal gain.
This is dangerous for anyone who
is a leader of an organization such
as CEC.

7) I have seen lots of posts on
social media reaffirming their love
and support for Pst. Chris since
yesterday. There is absolutely
nothing wrong in doing that.
However, do these people really
think they love Pst Chris more than
Pst Anita? Never! Remember this is
his wife, mother of his two
daughters, and Vice President of
Central Executive Committees of
BLW. It is obvious most people
don't really know this woman is.
Her simplicity and gentility is
exceptional and unparalleled.
I beseech you brethren to please
continue to pray for Pst. Anita as
instructed by Pst Chris. I know she
is going through a lot as a wife,
mother and leader. I can provide
detailed factual record of the
personal sacrifices she made for
the CEC and her family. But each
time I tried to put them down in
writing, tears ran down my chin.
Most importantly, let us continue to
pray for the family, especially Pst
Chris, as the anchor, foundation
and leader. It is his calling to reflect
the creative and cultivating nature
of God. The inherent purpose and
God's original blueprint of all men
is fatherhood. It is obvious the
devil is up to something bigger -
the body of Christ.
I believe CEC boat is being rocked
to steer us in the right direction. If
you are sincere, you will agree with
me that we are drifting from the
core values of Christ as a ministry. I
am pained and saddened about
this recent development! It is never
too late........


Finally, the Bible says, “To whom
much is given much will be
required.” I am only doing what
Paul did to Peter (who was given
great responsibility by Jesus Christ
Himself) in Gal 2:14-21. When Paul
saw that Peter’s actions were
leading others astray he called out
Peter in FRONT OF THEM ALL. My
philosophy is private sin = private
discipline; public sin = public
discipline. See also 1 Timothy
5:19-21. I am not saying the
allegations are true, however, the
way the issue is being handled by
our leaders is wrong. God bless
you.


Selah!!!
