Religion / Re: Why I Left Christ Embassy Church by TulsaOklahoma: 10:47pm On Jul 02, 2017
Marchman:
I have not posted in a while but if you have followed my previous posts, you would know that I used to attend Christ Embassy Church, even though I had reservations about some of their teachings. I finally left the church, phew!
I will use this thread to explain why I quit the church and why I may never attend another Pentecostal/Charismatic church which now appears to me like a sole proprietorship, with the General Overseer or lead pastor as the owner.

1. Excessive premium on Giving money

In Christ Embassy the number one thing they lay emphasis on is giving money. The church can use any tactic to get money from members, including manipulation, threats and the likes. While there is nothing wrong with giving money or time, I believe everything should be balanced and moderate. I think that was why St Paul said we should not give out of target, or threat but as we decide in our heart. In CE, there is nothing like moderation or balance when it comes to giving. They tend to believe literally that everything answers to money. You don’t have a job, give and sow seed. You are infertile, give and sow seed. Your father is sick, give and sow seed. Every message ends with a charge to give money. They collect tithes, offerings, partnerships (money), seeds (more money), first fruits (your whole income in January) and plethora of others.

You are also charged to give for Pastor Chris’s birthday and for all the other pastors. And for projects and the likes too.

Before I started worshipping with the Church, I read the story of the account clerk at the Sheraton Hotel who stole from his employers to give to the church. As a member, I could relate with the man. The Church is obsessed with money. They do not mind how or where you get it. If you want to rise or be noticed or win awards, just give big money. It is this obsession with money that led it to start collecting gate fees from members for its New Year Service at the LoveWorld Convocation Arena in Lagos, which ironically was built by the offerings of the members charged to get in. A lot of people I know personally had gone broke, had their businesses ruined, or fallen out with a loved one because of this teaching by the church.

In summary, at CE, money is everything- EVERYTHING.
if u really want to worship God under a clean platform just go to Jehovahs witness.I was once in ur shoes so I know wat I'm saying

Religion / Re: God's Judgement Against King Ahab by TulsaOklahoma: 7:30am On Jun 26, 2017
[quote author=CHAVINCI post=57822912]In church today, we talked about 1 kings chapter 21 where it tells the injustice king ahab did to Naboth and his children, yes it was very cruel and wicked, but my point is when GOD decided to punish Ahab which of course he repented and wore svack clothes and so GOD extended his hand of mercy on him by saying the punishment meant for him would happen to his children, don't you think that is a misguided justice on the part of GOD?

I mean why would people who know nothing about how a sin was committed pay the price? And if GOD had truly forgiven him, then why punish his children, is that still called forgiveness?

chuksanambra:
Okay
They've been dating for 4 years
Assuming he chows the babe 4times every week, that's 4X 4weeks/Month = 16Times 16times /Month X 12 months = 192 Times Multiplied by 4 years = 768 Times
Assuming it was an olosho and he pays her 10k each time he gets down with her.
10,000 X 768 = 7.68M.
With 7.5M, she's gonna get better than a 12-Year old BMW -5 series.
this your comment worry me

[quote author=henrixx post=55627451]sorry bro. enlighten me on this. how does lightening kill. cos that thing always scares me[/okay.first of all,thunder is sound,and d sound it carries might not be strong enough to damage hearing and that's the worst it could do,but on the other hand,lightening is electricity,lightening carries billion volts of electricity which is capable of electrocution or paralysing someone and sometimes too in rare cases,lightening and its voltage could serve as a defiliberator,just google lightening or watch the movie the age of adaline.hope I helped a little bit and don't be scared of it cos wat must be,must be]
