Adeboye Asks For Inclusion Of Clergy In Mid-east Peace Talks At US Congress

Pastor E.A. Adeboye, the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, has now taken his quest for the inclusion of religious leaders in the Mideast peace process to the US Congress, where alongside other religious leaders a call has been made to widen the scope of the peace talks, Empowered Newswire reports.

"It is time for the voice of religious leaders to be heard in the international arena together with the voice of academics and parliamentarians," he says at a US Capitol meeting during the week, attended by at least two US Senators: Mike Lee, Republican from Utah, Dean Heller, Republican from Nevada, and a US Congressman Louie Gohmert, from Texas.

Adeboye who also hinted that already the Nigerian government has also bought into the idea, explained that such an inclusion “will fill a gap in global diplomacy,” specifically regarding the Mideast peace process but also

Alongside other religious leaders from the Abrahamic faith groups-Judaism, Christianity and Islam, the General Overseer of the RCCG has taken the same quest to world leaders at the United Nations, the European Union, the United Kingdom and Israel in the last one year.

In fact a news report by New York Times in June this year described this effort as “Track III Diplomacy,” for the Mideast peace process, since there are other tracks at the regional and global levels especially among politicians and public officials.

Speaking at the US Capitol on Wednesday afternoon, Adeboye, represented by the leader of the RCCG in North America, Pastor James Fadele said the global religious leaders are seeking to empower, “for the first time, a global network of spiritual leaders, educators and government officials," to come together and fight intolerance racism, terrorism and violence on all levels.

Noting that the idea was first presented last June at the UN, where Adeboye personally unveiled the initiative, the General Overseer added that the initiative "we are hoping to develop is also aimed to construct the defenses of peace in the minds of men," just as the UNESCO Constitution stated.

The Mideast conflict, Adeboye continued, "is not only about politics-it is also about religious and moral values. The only way to solve it is through education for a culture of peace among all sides to the conflict.”

The prominent cleric said the crisis in the Mideast is also about history, religious values and ideal including legal principles, which is why he is arguing around the globe that “the arena cannot be left solely to politicians.”

According to the General Overseer of the RCCG, the Mideast Peace negotiations “have been ongoing for decades with no results when left only to the politicians. The gap has to be filled with the involvement of religious leaders, parliamentarians and academic leaders in order to achieve success.”

He hinted that the initiative might have received the endorsement of the Nigerian government.

Adeboye then made a call to all members of the US Congress and NGOs in the American capital “to join us in the valiant and crucial effort to promote world peace, environmental ethics and social justice-which are the hallmarks of our mission as democracies and as leaders of the free world.”

Some of the groups, leading politicians and religious leaders that Adeboye is collaborating with include parliamentarians from European countries and now members of the US Congress.

The initiative itself comes under the auspices of the Inter-Parliamentary Coalition for Global Ethics which was set up by an Israeli lawmaker, Knesset Member Rabbi Zeev and the Christ the Redeemer’s Friends Trust, a London-based outfit formed by Adeboye to help people at risk and promote world peace beyond the walls of the church.

He he he.
Just imagine adding the discordant and hateful voices of orthodox judaism, fundamentalist islamist and evanagelical christianity into this very volatile and delicate peace process in the middle east.

This would be sooooo comedic.

What an oaf!!!
Boko Haram is ravaging his country.. Yet.. He wants to... Hmmmm..

What stupidity...

When will charity begin at home?

Why not make calls to Nigeria Legislators for efforts at restoring peace in the north sequel to the series of Boko Haram attack, efforts at reducing poverty and unemployment in Nigeria etc?

Is the life of a Middle Easterner worth more than that of a Nigerian that we have to champion their course more than the myriads of problems we face in Nigeria on a daily basis?

Welcome to reality, bro..
They spend their time travelling to Jerusalem, the holy land. They think the Israelites are a chosen people. In their minds, they've placed them higher than their race.

So, it doesn't matter if we have our local problems. The interests of the Children of the God of aBRAham, Isick and Jacub must come first...

Time to ship some tithe money to them.. Halleluia..

How can your house be on fire and you go around chasing rats?

Can your bowl of garri have sand in it and you go around giving eba n soup recipes?

Anyways, this will just further destroy Nigeria's image. We have Boko Haram and our top pastor wants to address violence/unrest in the middle east? This Adeboye must look like a confused fool to the Americans

Na, he'll probably amaze them by flying in with a jet powered by Holy Spirit fuel, then commanding snow to fall in summer..

the Americans love that, don't they?

btw, McDaddy, u doing garri crew? lol..

musKeeto: btw, McDaddy, u doing garri crew? lol..

Nooo!

I was just joking ooo! I have nothing to do with the garri crew.

.

Most of them don't realise it and those who do try to rationalize it by saying things like "spiritual israel" . Then others like Buzugee will just claim to be the "real" Israelites.

Dignifying yahweh and Israel, makes as much sense as dignifying Zeus and Greece.

Well said.

Could someone enlighten me what this garri crew/gang on NL is all about?

The man is probably looking for cheap publicity because he most likely will be a delegate from Nigeria if his proposition is accepted. He will fly first class to the UN general assembly addressing world leaders on how to tackle middle east problems, and all these paid for by Nigerian govt. stoopid MOGs, who would rather take the gospel to UK and US whereas 90% of Northerners in their country have never heard their silly gospek

Eyaa... See as una dy bash our 'daddy'.
I believe theres a portion of the bible that says u shudnt bother to remove the speck of wood in someone's eyes when you have a log of wood in yours. Obviously he has.nt read it.

Adeboye isnt after peace of the midle east. He just want to be more famos traveling more round d world wit his private jets, meeting foreign politcian like usa senetors who wil b part of d peace crew so he can pray and prophesisd for them and have more money in dolars

Doesn't adeboye knw that the earth will never knw peace until its ruler is cast out??

I tire for im ruler of the earth ideology..
That's why believes Nigeria can never be developed, the ruler of this wolrd has made it so, therefore any efforts to change the status quo are in vain..

The aim is heaven not earth.... What a mentality..

Muskeeto, are you not depressed?

With this kind of mentality from Ijawkjid, how can Nigeria move forward?

People believe that the devil rules the world and so they sit down and pray for heaven rather than make the world fairer

Spoke with my dad yday. He was cursing the system and all, was really bitter about it. He believes our generation will do something about it..

I look around and all I see is lots of youths confident in ignorance. Check the social networks and see what our youths discuss abt.

Here in India, 17 year old kids are organizing technological festivals on campus where they show off their programming prowess amongst other intellectual skills..
Back in Nigeria, 25 year old adults are organizing praise and worship festivals on campus showing off the latest holy ghost dance amongst other spiritual skills...

Depressed? A lot.. Bothered. Angry.

I 100% agree with your post.


I promise myself that I will do something to educate many Nigerians, no matter how small. I cant just sit and complain about mentalities of people like Ijawkid.

Soon, My website will be up (probably october).

When I go to Nigeria, I will do something. I dont know yet but people will benefit from learning.

You still have my contact, right?

Trust me, there's a sizeable group of 'youths' like us beginning to take the initiative.. Coordinated efforts would yield better results.

Send me a mail, if possible..

First class ke? Why are you belittling a whole daddy G.O? Daddy is way too big to fly commercial airlines with lesser mortals. If you must know, daddy travels strictly by private Jet.
