The Leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate
Elijah Ayodele on Wednesday lamented challenges facing the Christian world in
Nigeria.
In a statement released by his media office, Primate Ayodele
made it known that some Christian leaders like the General Overseer of the
Redeemed Christian Church of God, RCCG, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, the founder of
Living Faith Bible Church, Bishop David Oyedepo, the Founder Of Household Of
God International Ministry, Rev Chris Okotie, some Christian bodies that
include CAN, PFN are threat to the unity of Christianity.
The man of God referred to the death of Prophet TB Joshua
who passed on some weeks ago, while making it known that several Christian
leaders found it difficult to send condolence messages to his family members
despite the fact that he was a Christian before he died.
He explained that many of them have publicly accused him of
being a wizard and that he isn’t a true Christian despite the fact that they
claim to have gone to bible schools to learn deep things about what the word of
God says.
Primate Ayodele noted that the love and unity in
Christianity have been destroyed by top men of God with the spirit of envy and
hatred.
He said: ‘’Christians are the problem of the church,
everyone will die one day but it’s unfortunate that a Christian brother died
and the so called big pastors can’t say a word of condolence, is that how good
leaders act? What they have done is wrong, what does it take CAN, PFN to come
out when the death happened to pay condolences?
“The likes of Chris Okotie went ahead to call TB Joshua a
wizard, some called him devil while he was alive, was it God that revealed that
them that He is working for the devil? Why not bring an evidence? God is going
to condemn lot of pastors.
“Christians are the problems of Nigeria, they don’t have
love, they have different doctrines, and some preaching are not even biblical.
When the beloved son of Pastor Adeboye died, TB Joshua sent condolences and
ordered a 1-minute moment of silence to honour the deceased but now that He is
dead, what have they done? These are part of hooliganism in Christianity, it’s
quite unfortunate. I’m highly disappointed in Pastor Adeboye who is seen as a
prominent Christian leader for keeping silent on this . Every one of us will
die someday.
“This is not the time for hatred, there is so much hatred in
Christianity and that is why I will never join CAN, PFN or any Christian
association, they are associations of envy and hatred, they claim that they
went to bible school, is that what the bible taught them? If at all TB Joshua
offended anyone, why can’t they forgive him? they should all change, they are
getting older.
“CAN, PFN are just association for the government and for
personal gains. These associations are not biblical. I have no apology, I don’t
want anyone to like me, I am saying this the way I feel, this is a time when we
need love and unity in Christianity but those that are the supposed leaders
have killed the spirit of love in Christianity. The administrators of this
association are selfish, greedy and totally self-centered.
“We need to support one another, let the bigger pastors help
the lesser ones to grow, that’s what we need in Christianity not all these
associations causing division.’’
