Bishop Oyedepo And His Succession Tricks by akintom(m): 9:18pm On May 15, 2018
Few days ago, bishop oyedepo was speaking in his synagogue, during which he betrayed the most basic resentment and sentiment towards the APC government (but mischievously towards PMB). He did spoke in manner that showed mockery, but beneath that, is deep seated hatred and disillusion.

I sat under the live teachings of oyedepo when he was at Raji-oba in iyana-ipaja, Lagos. I read his books and listened to his tapes. He was a man that i coveted then, in matters that borders on pastoral cravings.

In his teachings on anointing, the calling of God into the ministry and ordination into church leadership. Oyedepo taught thus;

"the calling of God is not by election, but by the anointing of the holy spirit. Not even by the appointment or agreement of clergy. In acts 1: 1-26, the eleven apostles wanted to replace Judas, so elected a twelfth apostle by casting ballot.

God wasn't in that arrangement. But when God decided to replace Judas, he anointed Paul. Nothing significant was heard about Mattias after the election, but Paul became a force in the new testament. This is an evidence of the superiority of anointing of God over human arrangement "

" the new testament order of coming into the ministry, isn't after the order of the Aaron priesthood, but after that of the priesthood of Jesus. Which is not by inheritance, but by the anointing of the holy spirit".

Oyedepo taught the above ���, when his two sons (who are now heir apparent to "presiding bishophood"wink were still toddlers.

Below ��is what oyedepo now teaches on the same subject matter.

"Furthermore, in this ministry, we have an operational manual called The Mandate. This 504-page book contains, among others, details of statutory procedures for succession. This book, which was released in 2012, is the second bible of this ministry as it were and the content shall not be subject to review until after the first 50 years, that is 2062, if at all.
"However, succession in the kingdom is absolutely at God’s prerogative as in the case of Moses and Joshua" .

"The Church’s Mandate Secretary, Pastor Yemi Nathaniel, said; “Every apostolic ministry like ours is a priestly commission and because priesthood is for a lifetime, his (Oyedepo) presidency and priesthood is for a lifetime. “Moses, Joshua, Aaron ministered and his son also did; Elijah, Elisha and Paul, among others.".

Oyedepo who taught that succession by the new testament order, isn't by inheritance, is now teaching that it's now after the order of Aaron priesthood (hereditary).

In that mandate, that oyedepo said is not subject to review till 50 years, is the command that his successor shall be named by God. Now, how shall God do this?

This is how; in few years to come, the two sons of oyedepo, who are at this time, are as powerful as oyedepo himself, would have become absolutely powerful. Most of the co-founders with oyedepo, would have become very old, possibly dead, disillusioned or out of the church.

And when oyedepo eventually become infirmed or dead, one of the sons would have become God (ye are gods Ps 82 vs 6) and his voice shall be the voice of God according to the mandate.

This is the acts of manipulation, oppression, extortion and robbery by bishop oyedepo.

OP if u are a Christian then I feel very sorry for u
Its dangerous to play politics in matters concerning the house of God. if you find LFC as a place where God is worshipped in spirit and in truth why don't u just keep worshipping God and stop dabbling into succession politics. Bishop Oyedepo was alone wen God gave him the mandate, He doesn't need and man's opinion to hand it over to anyone he says God wants him to handover to

Akintom you missed it big time, the example you sited such as “Moses to Joshua and Elijah to Elisha, can you explain biological relationship between them.

Moses was a Levite but Joshua was Ephraimite. Why would Joshua be the best candidate to take leadership from Moses? Give answer yourself

The same applies to Elijah and Elisha.

There are those who are Oyedepo's spiritual children, in fact all the church members are so anyone can be the chosen one, but the chosen one must understand the church mandate

Did you see Aaron there?

Are you aware that oyedepo's first son is the resident pastor in Canaan land and one of 4 vice president to his father?

Just think rationally, ok ?

The Church is The Sole property of GOD ALMIGHTY.... and No man can do what GOD does not allow..

Eli sons where to be The next priest (GO's) after their father's death, but when the sinned GOD ALMIGHTY, my FATHER slew them and Prophet Samuel took over...

Samuel sons where also Prophets but they didn't see the light as Prophets...

What GOD does not allow cannot Happen.

Lolz..... Sorry, you just simply can't see beyond the act of manipulation by your church leaders. Idahosa built his church in his name, the very reason his Co-pastors couldn't head the church after his death.

Idahosa wife took over, she later ordained her son as bishop. The son will take over when she dies.

It's church business, only the hypnotized and gullible are under the illusion that church isn't a scam business.

Do you know that James the bother of Jesus was among the elders of the church in Jerusalem.
What rational thinking got to do with other men's issue?

If one of the son has what it takes to lead why cant he be a resident pastor
If the father is building his son to be Next Big Thing, what is wrong putting the son in a position to learn and develop.

Every pastor would know the implication of wrong succession and I'm sure Oyedepo is fully aware of the consequences of the wrong person taking over the ministry.
As regard his son serving as resident pastor that is a non issue. At the time of succession God would make his choice.
OP I would advise you to stay away completely from the issue of succession. And I also suspect you are misinterpreting the mandate book.

Go and read my OP again.

I simply showed you a man that's a scamer. He taught his hypnotized followers that ascension to headship isn't hereditary.

But now, he's perfectly arranged his son to inherit the church business. All this by tricks in the name of God. Using the same Bible he used to knock off the Aaronic order.

You obviously didn't understand the last three paragraphs of my post. The mandate says God shall name the successor at oyedepo's exit.

Has God ever spoken to you or any human before? Men have always spoken in the NAME of God.

His son, oyedepo jnr is at present, the resident pastor of the international headquarters and one of the 4 vice presidents.

If you're logical and rational, you will know that oyedepo has gotten a successor in his son already (exactly what "God' will say when he dies).

You go and articulate my 1st response. Any of the leaders in the church close to him can be regard as his child not necessarily his biological child.

He is the founder of the church and AM NOT SURE IF HE put much difference between the church he founded and other businesses he established personally.

Do you expect the successor of the church leadership to also inherent the business also?

Your response can't be different from the stock that oyedepo is made of. Without tricks and scam, God-idea and religion can't thrive.

The fact that you either can't see or deliberately choose not to see how oyedepo has subtly positioned his son to inherit living faith church, albeit in manipulative and fraudulent manner, shows how morally bankrupt you godists are.
Re: Bishop Oyedepo And His Succession Tricks by PastorandMentor(m): 2:13pm On May 17, 2018
Op go and start your own business and give it to a total stranger.
Oyedepo's business is growing minute by minute and you want him to hand it over to a total no body? You must be sick in the head.
Pastor Issac or David jnr takes over after the demise of the Ceo.
Please don't come here and say rubbish.
Go and start your own business.

Another pseudo-intelligent boy. Who told you Oyedepo is operating in the Aaronic order by handing over to son.?Until there is a clause in the mandate that states explicitly that the succession can only be handed over to Oyedepo's lineage then you are simply deceiving yourself.
