odum desmond: My problem with ur likes is that u cry more than the bereaved, has any person who gives tithes and offering ever come to u to complain about ur perceived exploitation? Surely those of us who "s*tupidly" give tithes and offering and also "st*upidly" get blessed in giving don't complain at all, infact I ve emptied my pocket several times for God and ve never failed to get double fold blessings in return, there is a mystery many pple re not aware of, it works for us and we can't just stop giving because ur type re crying out. My papa Bishop Oyedepo started out morethan 30 years back from a thatched roof church in a remote village, he was a graduate with prospects in a Nigeria of that time when employers would come to plead with u on the day of ur graduation to work for them, with huge tempting offers of salary, accommodation and even car; but he chose God, he chose to become a preacher than work , he was rejected by his dominantly Muslim family, he was mocked at, his parents felt they had lost a son, but he held on to what he believed in. Today, after all his suffering, he has in turn become raised by God and people are talkin, where were u wen he was goin thru all these for God, life teaches that there is no limit to which a man can get if he remains dedicated, committed and upright, he chose these and he is not only blessed but has become a blessing to thousands employed in several businesses he has. He doesn't ve to earn from church offering or tithe, he also has interest in businesses and has access to the best brains to work for him. Let me even ask, a church that has more than a million memeber world wide, shud owing private jet be too much? Have u read about Kenneth Copeland, his church has as at 3 years back given away about 25 jets as gifts to other ministries world wide. Is jet too big for God's work? Would we rather have a man who would teach decency, love, morals, fear of God, etc to fly on private jet just to meet preaching schedules world wide than give same private jet a Hollywood porn star/ artiste who only needs it to fly all over the world to promote nudity and immorality? The place we call Cannan land at Ota before Oyedepo came was a thick forest, the church has turned it to the best city in Nigeria, nobody is commending him and the church, Adeboye lived at Redeemed camp ground alone when it was a jungle with only him and his wife, surrounded by bush, no electricity, pipe borne water etc their kids refused living, with them there, today it has become a city like none in Nigeria in terms of organisation and facilities, a fit no Govt with billions of oil money in Nigeria has accomplished , yet for them to fly on small 10 passenger private jet is causing uproar in Nigeria. God is watching us all. I believe that a man who has paid so much that many other re unwilling to pay should enjoy what others are not entitled to, all pastors can't be on same level.

skyfall: For years, I've been looking for the difference between Nigerian pastors and Yahoo! Boys but found nothing.

Their Modus Operandi is the same. Play on your victim's emotion, scam them of their valuables while promising them an imaginary reward. Repeat above.

I'm sure the most gullible people in the world would be found among Nigerian Pentecostal churchgoers. It beats me how they manage to remain dumb for so long.

Yemotiroro: Hmmmm!
I have read thru a lot of these writings and have come to one conclusion only - these commentator are not exactly agents of change or those who have the poor at heart but those, like Judas Iscariot, who was quick to challenge the use of the very expensive ointment on the Lord Jesus, claiming that it should have been sold and given to the poor, not because he cared for the poor but because he was a thief. You guys are sharp to criticise men of God and yet cannot even point at what positive difference you've made in the lives of 'the poor' or don't you have any around you? How many of you can make the kind of sacrifice these men of God have made in the past? Now that a gift is presented to one everybody wants to stone him. If you got a car gift would you burn it because a politician gave you? When Pst. kumuyi of Deeper Life sold his car in the early days to expand the evangelistic effort in Ghana did anyone shout? The other day someone saw him in a Benz ML and began complaining that the car was too nice. Better beware what you say before you confer on yourself the deplorable title of a 'never-do-well' Let's stop all these hypocrisy and do some useful stuff with our lives.

dmcdad: Nah! Its just a new way of saying bro. Besides, don't use daft next time cuz I neva used any insultive words.. Aight?

dmcdad: Hapi 4 u brah..

kubelan: In short we christian have left the charity aspect of the Gospel, to accumulation of wealth and political power. This is not the will of God for us. the bible says we shall not be equally yoked with the world. pls lets work more on the inward not the outward. The Grace of the Lord be with us all
