KingOfAmebo:
You mean if people got saved in Winners Chapel Anambra branch and decided to relocate to Lagos then the pastor in-charge of Winners Chapel Anambra should be sacked for not meeting up to expectations (growth index).

Wether financial or population growth which will eventually translate to more money for the church, This decision by Oyedepo is a clear indication that he is all about winning money into his pocket and not winning souls for God.

By their fruits we are beginning to know them. Open your eyes people...emancipate yourself from mental and pocket slavery.

When it comes to religion we are number one on the list but when it comes to loving one another like it is thought in all religions we are the worst, We don't practice what we preach. Nigeria is very religious but an unholy country

Bros, have you read the scripture that says...
And the lord said unto the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.(Luke14:23)??
If you do not agree to this scripture...you're an antichristian.

Including people like you. You’re fortunate I don’t know you in person.
I would have single handedly make sure you follow me to church.

Saul was more stringent and mean in destroying believers of Jesus Christ until God touched him and he was named Paul and he became a bold evangelist of Jesus Christ.

Souls are perishing everyday and my desire is to ensure that more souls are won to the Kingdom of God.


If you’re a believer, join me in this conquest brother.
Shalom!

The fruit John was talking about in Matthew is Repentance.

Matthew 3:8-12 Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance:
And think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham.
And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: therefore every tree which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire:
Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.

Jesus will not cast a Christian out because he had bad works no, only that his works will be burnt up but he will be saved.

1 Corinthians 3:15 If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.


The fruit that will make a man to be cast out is the fruit of unrepentance from unbelief such as the pharisees and the jewish religious leaders have.

The Pastor probably wants to hire an online barrister if the law who won't charge him much...

Moreso, they need people who are online's sympathy. They will share half baked story and leave you to finish the rest from your end.


We go dey alright last last.

BluntTheApostle:


Are you telling me that the Church don't tax these former loiterers?

My brother, however you look at it, it is about tithes and offerings. Even those who are unemployed are still subtly threatened into making offerings.

Ammishaddai:
[s][/s] A religion that is more than 2000 years old is what is about to die? Baba, your mumu no get part 2

Mustiboy:
So, if I understand very well, pastors are tasked with bringing people to the church by all means, even if it means invading their privacy and compelling them to come to your church?

Is this not the idea of more members, more revenue?

It's now glaring that today's churches are business enterprises; churches, since time immemorial, have always been so.

Nothing dey shock me again.
U got it wrong totally. U didn't read where the wrote dat dey will have to give dem souvenirs to ginger them coming next time. In my church we pay transport for members that dont have.
The question is, how does the church generate it finances cos we dont produce and sell physical goods. Its willing donations from those who have. Nobody is forcing u to bring money

kingxsamz:
Church is a business. Anybody that wants to cry about it should cry.
Cry from now till next year, it'll always be a business center. Only Sheeples and GO worshippers like you that'll feel the need to defend their "daddy's" enterprise.

Techguy96:

Christianity will not survive the next one thousand yrs, while Islam 1500 yrs. And both religion will gradually die off.

Image123:


You seem like the one doing the wailing and teeth gnashing here. It has always been the Father's business. It a business that dwells on productivity, some 30 fold, some 60 fold, some 100 fold. The OP and those that have the interest are only trying to enlighten you not to think only in 1D.

emerged01:


I don’t know about other churches,in winner chapel,no one cares about your tithe and offering. It is about your Will. You can make yourself available and see things for yourself.
I started winner chapel in 1993. There are some many factors that made me stopped going. My mum is still an elder till today.
Bro,if you are a good Christian you shouldn’t be threatened to make offerings or tithe before you do so.
About the loiters you are talking about,if you know how church help them to get back on their feet you will appreciate the church and overlook the offering part. Those loiters are even wishing to do more than offering because they see reason to do so but to us we called “brainwashed”, Those that are with family finds family in the church, they became happy again. Tell me why won’t they make offering when they see impart of the church in their lives. If it is business to you,it is business.

after4:
So doing God's work has to be with the church properties right?

Origin:
It's God's work, ordained ministers should not be sacked.....

There are several ways of impacting the youths and community, touching loves has nothing to do with full seats....


So if I don't come to your church, I can't be saved?

I can't be clothed fed helped??

Will the pastor's good works be lost or stopped once he is sacked?

Righteousness2:
The only Abnormal thing in the whole thing is the Pastor who came out on social media to Rant.

Pastors are regularly taken out and replaced from stations. It is worrisome that a Pastor comes out on social media to complain. I really can't understand the kind of things that happen in these Endtimes. I Believe someone misled the young man.

A Pastor who knows and understands his call, will not do this.
A Pastor who knows and Understands his position will invest himself more in the work of GOD and take his matter to GOD. Your calling does not end on Pulpit.

foeedaba:
The reason the pastors were sacked is because they were guilty of embezzlement. The amount of money they send they send to headquarters every week does not correspond with the population of their congregation.

malcom1X:



Winners chapel is not a church, it is a registered business under the Coperate Affairs Commission.


Kiss the truth.

Sulele04:

Church is a business, whether winner chapel or winners or redeem.

They are all business, whose sole aim is to maximize input of profits(tithes & offerings).

kingxsamz:


Lol, I don't ever even read your rants.
Cry.

jesusjnr2020:
The Truth is that this exposes and also confirms the real motive behind the drive of the church to create branches. It has nothing to do with the expansion of God's Kingdom but that of men.

As much as we'd rather want to sugarcoat this and lie to ourselves, it's a glaring case of misplaced priorities.

The same church that is erecting structures that cost billions upon billions, yet it can't find money to pay those they employed to pastor their church branches, which are yet able to run itself.
[b]
If the same person in question now starts preaches the nonsense that people want to hear, and it leads to the rise in membership of the branch and consequently the finances of the church, they would retain him regardless and wouldn't have excuses not to collect the extra from the church. [/b]Now it's the flip side and they're trying to use grammer to confuse themselves not those who know the Truth.

This is the reason why many now are no longer preaching the Words of the Spirit but the words of the flesh, because that's what men want to hear.

They'd also sack Jesus because He would preach the Words of the Spirit regardless, even if it makes Him not to meet the church's so-called growth-index, but wisdom is justified of her children.

God bless.
