Olatosho Oshoffa, the son of Bilewu Oshoffa,the late founder of the Celestial Church of Christ, Worldwide shared his view on polygamy in the church and it is shocking....
The shepherd of CCC International Headquarters, Ketu, Lagos, while defending his late father’s large family declared that no prophet in the Bible had one wife.
“Can I tell you something… (sic)? You see, in that scripture, Paul was only advising. Tell me in the Bible, which prophet of God had only one wife? Do your research and tell me,”
The late Oshoffa left 13 wives and 53 children behind raising concern about his lifestyle even as the leader of one of Nigeria’s Christian congregations.

You found nothing?
DeleteHe said you should show him which prophet had one wife. Just go and study all the prophets in the Bible and check how many wives they each had.
I notice that white garment churches do not frown on polygamy. So they are following in their founder's foot steps. Hmmmmmmmm

What happened in the old testament did it also happened in the new testament when grace was released?

OK sir,it has also been proven,that polygamy,does not stop infidelity or promiscuity.πππ
ReplyDeleteEven some drunkards defend their drinking saying Jesus turned water to wine.
ReplyDeleteAt the end of the day,Salvation is a personal race,everyone will stand before God to give account of their lives.
Most prophets in the Bible were not even married, preacher man. Folks act like because a cultural practice of the day was mentioned in the Bible it means it was approved by God. I despise how some of these ppl have reduced God’s grandeur to some kind of overseer of human life, with nothing else to do but monitor or care about what humans are doing 24/7 like some bloody monitoring spirit. The egocentrism of humans is despicable, even in spiritual matters. We are not the center of life or God’s plan, we are one small part of creation. God is not sitting around with nothing to do just waiting to attend to our beck and call like some damn yard boy. Mtsscchhwww
ReplyDeleteI'm sure he also has more than one wife and his church members too have more than one wife. Let them continue doing what they like, last last everybody will answer for themselves on the last day.
ReplyDeleteNa wa
ReplyDeleteJust say the person isn't sexually responsible,stop all these go and check bible things ..if woman hungry u,carry as u like...
ReplyDeleteAm not surprised at all, it is only in white garment churches you will see alagba and church members committing fornication and adultery with their full chest.
ReplyDeleteAswear
DeleteDating all the females in the church both married and single.. Sick
On the last day, we shall see oh
ReplyDeleteEverybody to their beliefs, as for me, nothing beats monogamy.
ReplyDeletepolygamy is not a sin. sin is fornication and adultery. The Bible did not condemn polygamy. it is only prohibited by those who have been appointed in the office of the church. read 1 Timothy chapter 3 and get clarification. if you don't occupy any position in the church, you can marry more than one as long as you can take care of them
ReplyDeleteThis man is talking about his church maybe because they are still operating with the Old Testament which is wrong because as he said most of the prophet in the old testament married more than one wife
In trying to sound woke you end up hitting yourself. You quoted that polygamy is not for those who held positions, the man and his late father, what are they?
DeletePolygamy is not accepted in the new statement era.
The bible says who finds a wife finds a good thing not who finds wives. It also says to be satisfied with the wife of your youth not wives of your youth and it also say a man and woman will leave their parents house and become one like Christ and the church. The matrimonial bed must be undefiled. Even though polygamy was accepted in the Old testament with the coming of Christ and his sacrifice on the cross a man must marry a woman and be satisfied with her, just as the apostles advised. Anything aside of that is adultery, fornication and se*ual immorality.
DeleteI'm not surprised. shebi they're always snatching each other's wives and husband. White garments church that when go there as a single lady for counseling before you know what's happening to you,you don born 2/3 children for the pastor.
ReplyDeleteNawah o. Endtime church
DeleteNothing wrong in marrying more than one woman as far as you can take care of them.
ReplyDeleteAnd no they won't go to hell fire,my only grouse against polygamy is the way Nigerian men go about it.
Very cold blooded and wicked in attempting to marry another.
