I think sometime in 2014 my cousin and I attended one of their Sunday services in Abuja. OMG! It was like a glorified fashion industry. My first shocker was what most ladies wore to the church, my eyes couldn't comprehend. God have mercy, This is end time indeed. Commercialization of churches everywhere u turn to. These are churches were hardened criminals would attend and even sit in front facing the pastor without feeling pricked in d heart, all because d so called ''pastors'' would massage their ego with their bread and butter gospel.

ministeriallist:
Why are people condemning this "Man of God"? Church business is very lucrative. Don't you know there are millions of f_ols out there waiting to be deceived?
Abeg pastor, keep using there heads jor. Enjoy ursef while the gullible followers wait for their reward in "heaven".
Pastors: my God is not a poor God
Followers: my reward is in heaven

Yinkatolu:
judge not

ODUBEZE:

Show me a role model whose followers is poor while he is rich in the bible and I will tell you what is wrong with their lifestyle!
Gods' standard does not change!

Matt 6:19 Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:

6:20 But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:

6:21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.




Luke12: 15 And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man's life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.



16 And he spake a parable unto them, saying, The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully:


17 And he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits?

18 And he said, This will I do: I will pull down my barns, and build greater; and there will I bestow all my fruits and my goods.

19 And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry.

20 But God said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided?

21 So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.



22 And he said unto his disciples, Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat; neither for the body, what ye shall put on.

23 The life is more than meat, and the body is more than raiment.

24 Consider the ravens: for they neither sow nor reap; which neither have storehouse nor barn; and God feedeth them: how much more are ye bett

Church business is good business. Imagine collecting material wealth in exchange for promises of spiritual blessings.

Pastor Biodun Fatoyinbo of the Commonwealth of Zion Assembly COZA has acquired a brand new Targa 911 S4 Porsche which was unveiled last night after its arrival to the country. According to reports from church aides, the luxurious super car was a gift. His wife Modele, friends and church officials were present during the unveiling....

You are just too foolish. So you think Churches are meant to be attended by saints?! Jesus came to earth for the sinners not saints. They church is meant for Criminals, prostitutes and downtrodden and will be changed by continually hearing the word of God. Go back and check if those ladies you saw still wear what you saw they wore. Mehn!

lookandlaff:


it's precisely because I saw it myself that I know it was N43m. BTW a macan and a 911 can never cost the same

nervegasfarts:


You are right, my mistake. I just looked at the invoice. The Macan is almost the same price as the Cayenne GTS, around N34M with customizations.

That said, In all things, we should seek the truth, and I truly doubt that this pastor knows every member of his church or at least has a mechanism or system in place for close commune with his church members. This is what is required by God of pastors first. The pastor is accountable to God for the lives of his/her members.

I have no problems with him buying a Targa S or a Bombardier Jet if he wants, but in buying it when many of his members are languishing in squalor, there is something wrong.

I know for instance, that many people dress so elegantly on Sundays to these churches, but are only hiding their problems behing the gele and very nicely cut cloths. The churches therefore look very opulent on the surface and perhaps this is why the pastors are not in touch with the problems of the congregation.

Setaje:
Tsheeeeeeeew. There are certain people who attend certain churches I don't like to associate wiv. I avoid them. I understand everybody has different ideology of what God stands for and so they go to a church that stands for what they believe in. What does a pastor need a car like this for? I would like to know if his home town or even the area where the church is located is motorable? I am also certain that not everybody in that church eats three square meals per day or even has a job. I just don't understand.


The people who could have helped nigerians fight for justice by preaching the truth always are the very people oppressing us the more.

jamace:
Pastor de miliki on earth, followers de pay tithe hoping to go to heaven. What an irony!

samogo1:


it's biblical my dear. Even Jesus was Rich.

It hath pleased them verily; and their debtors they are. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, their duty is also to minister unto them in carnal things.
Rom 15:27

drillskillz:


You are a fool

xamilola:
Hallelujah, today is one of the happiest days of my life, I never knew such a day would come when the saying 'until your achievements starts to make news, u have not started' would be fulfilled, christians and hypocrisy, why shouldn't a Pastor enjoy the good things of life because it is of the world ryt then I wonder why most of u use things that are of the world, and its jealousy that is is disturbing y'all u wish it was urs but u can't get such going about it like this, why do we like to deceive ourselves, if it was a circular musician u would all voice ur support, why can't u ever come to the understanding that you can genuinely serve God, and be very prosperous? Even God wants that for u, you can serve God and still live to the fullest, been poor doesn't mean u are righteous or a saint, and point of correction the car is 45 million naira and not 26million, you can also visit the church on a service days, and I bet u the members cars would daze you; u ain't seen nothing yet, this is just rehearsal. We celebrate you.

RuffRhyder:
I see no reason for all this showoff.

Alexcassy:


I celebrate you too hope you are Awesomely

Chubhie:
prophet sukkot, how do you see this?

sukkot:
my good brother Chubhie i troway salute Sir. regarding that verse, the person who supplied it was being disingenuous and deceptive because they did not give you the full context

romans 15 vs 26 For it hath pleased them of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor saints which are at Jerusalem.
27 It hath pleased them verily; and their debtors they are. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, their duty is also to minister unto them in carnal things.

SO LET ME EXPLAIN THE CONTEXT TO YOU. THE SAINTS ARE GOING AROUND FROM CITY TO CITY PREACHING TO PEOPLE. THEY HAVE NOTHING AND THEY ARE POOR SO WHAT THEY ARE OFFERING THE PEOPLE IS SPIRITUAL GIFTS WHILE THE PEOPLE OFFER THEM CARNAL THINGS LIKE FOOD CLOTHING AND A PLACE TO SLEEP BEFORE THEY DEPART THE NEXT DAY. NOTE THE EMPHASIS ON ' POOR SAINTS IN THE VERSE ' SO DO NOT FOR ONE MINUTE BELIEVE THAT DEMON IN THE PORSCHE IS A MAN OF GOD. MEN LIKE THAT ARE DESCRIBED IN THIS VERSE.

2 PETER 2 VS 3 And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you : whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not. <<< SO BASICALLY THESE FAKE PASTORS HAVE MADE MERCHANDISE OF THE PEOPLE BY SELLING THEM BOOKS THEY HAVE WRITTEN, COLLECT TITHES AND KEEP FOR THEMSELVES, COLLECT ALL KINDS OF OFFERINGS. FLEECING THE FLOCK. THEY ARE LIVING RICH OFF THE FLOCKS MISERY. BUT THERE JUDGEMENT WILL COME. EVEN THOUGH IT TARRY IT WILL COME.

ECCLESIASTES 8 VS 11 Because the sentence against an evil deed is not executed quickly, therefore the hearts of the sons of men among them are given fully to do evil.

Chubhie:
Apt! Thanks prophet!
