Maximus's hypocrisy appears somewhat to be pathological. Please answer the simple question regarding the ordination of Pastor Russell(as he was called). Who consecreated him as a church leader?

TruthinAction:
Kumuyi need to undo the wrong doctrines he has established for years. Otherwise, it will not be easy on Judgement Day.

After 40 years? Imagine those who have been raised steeped in is doctrines by parents too foolish to realize themselves lied to, in the name of God, by this man

jcross19:
for that 40years he prospered in the vineyard of God meaning the grace of God abide with him!

In the Vineyard of the same God his teachings and doctrines were an abomination to?

Stop lying in behalf of these men .

Maximus logic beggars belief. This is sad. I met many of the JW when I was growing up. They followed a rather smart routine of narrow but balanced arguments to callow Christians who decided to take Sundays off. Back to Maximus; claiming a badge of honor for elder Pastor Rusell for not being excommunicated by his previous churches is a completely shallow argument. There are several pushbacks that easily expose the absurdity implied in that argument one obvious one is that Mr. Russell was never any entity of substance or significance in both the Methodist or Congregational denominations to have warranted censorship. He was uncomfortable with the concept of eternal punishment for sin and decided to escape from the Christian doctrine to a more comfortable theology. He never held public office, thought Sunday school, or had any other opportunity to anger the established order in his previous churches before deciding to disfellowship himself and laid the foundation for his own movement. So to the present issue Maximus, there are no practical differences between the circumstances surrounding the separation of these two, Pastor Kumuyi and Pastor Russel from their previous denominations. Your insisting that there is some peculiar distinction based on the existence of ex-communication is inexplicable, and I daresay probably due to years of mugulization.

Hey my friend!!..
I have taken the pain to read through your comments and replies from people...its actually obvious u didn't listened to What Pastor Kumuyi was saying, he was excommunicated Yea!!!...Why was he?...He preached the bible, the part of the bible the church never preached!!!...he told the truth, the church never wanted to say!!!...He was bold, Meshack, Shedrack and Co were courage to defend their God and what happened to them likewise happened to him....the king was right to throw them to the fire, because they went against the law for God!!!..the bible stated it, that anybody that wants to follow me, must suffer persecution, Kumuyi suffered his own for God, and God has blessed him for it...and here you are abusing and reigning causes on him...Instead of judging an honest man, all you can do is insult....God forgive u she.....

Please stop....

The only message Jesus Christ sent His followers out to teach is the Gospel of the Kingdom of God as taught by Jesus Christ Himself. It also happens to be the same message that Kumuyi seldom spends time on and I know of this since I was a part of that church of his from as far back as the 80s when Buhari was even president of Nigeria.

So before you sit to defend this man in the name of God, be sure you are not defending evil in His name.
