Oyedepo ministered on service, while Abioye spoke on consistency in service.
Towards the end of the programme, however, Oyedepo took some time to talk about the goings on in the church. He revealed how some very high up officials, mainly accountants, had looted the church’s treasury.
The Bishop could not hide his disappointment that professionals trusted by the church to prevent fraud turned themselves into a network of fraudsters.
Expressing his disappointment in the errant church officials, who have since been relieved of their positions in the church, he said: “Can you imagine accountants perpetrating fraud in the house of God?
“We had no choice but to dismiss them. You can imagine top church officials engaging in doubling figures and other dubious practices.
“Even after we dismissed them, we discovered more fraud.
Those who should discover the fraud were the ones involved in it. One of them refused to confess until the last minute.”
He admonished the church members against employing the dismissed officials. He said he had to tell everyone present because he knew the dismissed officials “will come to you for employment.”
“Don’t employ them and don’t sympathise with them. Whoever sympathises with the wicked is wicked himself.”
Dead silence fell on the gathering as the Bishop reiterated: “Don’t sympathise with any perpetrator of fraud, otherwise you are a partaker of the evil act.”

DeleteWhy should you call him a scammer if i may ask? What's your concern with a pastor if i may also ask. Face your own let us face our own. A word is enough for the wise
DeleteAll of them are bloody scammers and looters!!!!! If you are a registered charity without annual financial publication, available to the public then you are bloody thieving bastard.

You are very stupid for calling him a scammer. Has he scammed you before? Always in a haste to ejaculate nonsense on top pastors when ywe see your useless imams them doing worst shit here in the north.
DeleteAswear to slap you just dey hungry me.
It is not hard to identify a fool, just wait to hear them talk. That's why you are Mr Nobody
DeleteEasah if you don't see Ustaz , Mallam or Imam in a story
DeleteKeep your mouth shut!
EESAH, shut your filthy mouth! Face your religion! Be warned!
DeleteBetter don't incur the wrath of God. Smh
DeleteThe church is the easiest place to rob, because if you can just pretend to be spirit filled, that's all.
DeleteMay the wrath of God catch up with them.
@EESAH will u kikwayet?
DeleteHmmmmmm, forgiveness is the key, if we are to imagine all the wrong things we’ve done before God, yet we’re seek for forgiveness every day.
ReplyDeleteA crime is easier to forgive when its committed against someone else. When its personal its a different case. They should try and retrieve the money or prosecute them.
ReplyDeleteThey are simply following your example, they are just practicing what you have preached to them.
ReplyDeleteNdi ori!!! They should all settle amicably, kettle calling pot black. (CHISOM)
ReplyDeleteStealing from the Church? That's like stealing from God.
ReplyDeleteNazo
DeleteWhat would the congregation he washed for to collect money from them do?
DeleteOnce church is mentioned most people brain stop to function.
Don if you think Oyedepo touches the church money then you need to thibk twice. If you think one can get to the level he is spiritually by stealing then you are clueless. Try opening a church and stealing or leaving off the church and see how miserable your generation will be. You guys are always wagging your tongues about stuffs you are totally ignorant about.
DeleteThe "gospel" as preached in Nigerian mega churches has become so transactional, vindictive, materialistic and apostate...
ReplyDeleteOyibo asupu.
It is a shame that what should be the house of God has been turned into a den of robbers.
What will Jesus do?
Sdk's ajuju n'ese okwu 😊😊😊
My aziza -answer: He will make whips and drive them out of the temple, from the head to the janitors ..."and overturn the tables of those money changers" and money grubbers.
I pity anyone who does not study the Scripture but depend on "pastors" to know the Lord Jesus.
"Search the Scriptures...John 5:39".

Even if they are forgiven, the Congregation should know that they are Fraudsters, anyone doing business with such people is solely on his/ her own.
ReplyDeleteImagine "a man of God" wailing because some of his flocks decided to play a fast one on him (an act I hate)
ReplyDeleteThey are all fake fake fake
If you thibk Oyedepo is fake then you have no spiritual discernment. If your child stole from you, wont you punish him? So why won't a pastor sact stealing officials abi are you supporting theft.
DeleteNo anony, I am in no way supporting their actions, but, the pastor is as fake as they come.
DeleteSome of us knows something about all these pastors but, we chose to zip our mouths.
P.S my spiritual discernment is on a high level.
If your discernment is in place you will know who Oyedepo is both physically and spiritually. The Bible says that there is a curse upon the house of a thief, does he in any way look like a cursed man, unlike your wretched thieving politicians. Learn not to generalize, calling someone who is dear to God a thief can make you receive the back hand slap of God especially when you have no evidence. Learn to be cautious with your tongue when it comes to men like Oyedepo
DeleteMs. A said and I quote "Some of us knows something about pasALL these pastors but, we chose to zip our mouth"
DeleteYou should be avoided and feared, if all you do is get infos on pastors that will make you zip your mouth.
I'm sure if he was a miserable church rat, these criticisms won't be as much as these. You are extremely envious of his anointing and wealth. Pray to God to impact one percent of those people whose lives have been immensely touched by Bishop Oyedepo . Take it or leave it, he is a blessed man and extremely loved by God.
Deletemrs A shut up. you can never be a believer. no true christian will call oyedepo fake...have you sat under his teaching or gone to his church? i will jot vouch for whether he is a saint or not i.e if everything he does is led by the Holy spirit. but to call him fake shows you are not even a serious christian
DeleteIs it about the Jesus that whipped people out of the temple, we're asking what He would do? Or another Jesus?
ReplyDeleteGbam
DeleteReal OA is trolling @ ANG. Hehehe
ReplyDeleteWOW, people are equating Jesus chasing away people like Oyedepo from the temple to this?
ReplyDeleteMr. Oyedepo, if you want to know what God would do to people who steal, take a cue from Jesus on the cross. Heck they were crucifying Him and He still forgave them.
Very stupid comment. Some of you curse your existence by accusing men who have poured out themselves for this generation because of money, that they didn't even steal. Jesus went to the cross for salvation of man. Oyedepo is not Jesus so he can't die for the sin of any man. Very useless and senseless comparison. Tueh I shudder at you guys ignorance. Church is full on Sunday yet you guys don't know Jack about the scripture, quoting scripture in isolation to support your foolishness.
DeleteI once worked with three members of the church; two out of the three were in the choir they had a sonorous voices. The company was into cathering. They delivered food and drinks. The two guys stole drinks in crates and sold it out after loading it in their warehouse. They were both relieved of their duties. One of them got a job which paid better than the previous company. He stole again, they sent him to the main office he stole and they sacked him. The third person was a lady, a leader in church. She victimized all the New staffs that were employed by bullying and hitting them.I am also a victim. I couldn't bear it and had to leave after a year. It disturbed me immensely for a long time. I cried and is still weeping because of the violence. I understand what the Pastor is experiencing. He has to purge out the bad eggs from the system.

DeleteIn-flight cathering
DeleteOyedepo the money doesn’t belong to u too.. u rip people off nd it was stolen from u, yet u do t want to forgive them.. what a pastor! Only u slap a poor helpless girl nd collect from people
ReplyDeleteAnother fool spotted, bring evidence that he ripped people off their money. And who told you he is even touching church money. He is not on salary from the church and he takes nothing free from the church, even the books he publishes, he buys them, not a dime of it enters his hands. Now crack your brain some more on how God is taking care of him
DeleteYour so naive
DeleteChop...I chop! these Pentecostal churches make millions of naira...forgive them oga millionaire pastor.
ReplyDeleteNonsense talk. Your beef with him is cos he is a "millionaire" madam he is a "billionaire"
DeleteStealing in God's house? I pity with them, as I see miseries await them.
ReplyDeleteIt’s wrong to steal but what will he have used the money for actually 😳😳
ReplyDeleteHe should take several seats. He go dey fly private jets up and down and expect his fellow scammers not to join in the jolliment. Who is he? He no get 2 heads. What is good for the goose is good for the gander. Last last na the poor they collected from other people dem dey enjoy. The accountants know that God doesn't need money. They must have seen the cash flow and expenditures---how Oyedepo and his family are living large at the expense of gullible masses, and decided to join the party. That's all. There is no honour among thieves.
ReplyDeleteOlodo rabata the road winners just constructed to otta, it was your father that paid for it shey nonsense. Asking what the church needs money for. So it's okay for your junkie celebrities to squander millions on girls and clubs and drugs but once church or pastors are rich you will start foaming from your mouth. The joke is on you
DeleteHe go shout tire
ReplyDeleteAre they not the corruption enablers?
The chicken had come home to roost.
Don
DeleteKeep your positivity to yourself
From now on , add value with your words not inflame with them
Your biases are getting too obvious
Hmmmmm. it is well. God pls, have mercy on us all.
ReplyDeleteThe money was from corrupt officials so why does he expect.did he tell the corrupt civil servants that donated the money same thing. Yeye pastor
ReplyDeletethis is a very very stupid comment....which corrupt civil servants do you know. so everybody who wants to give tithes or offerings will come and meet the pastor and tell him they are giving? have you sat under his teaching to hear him encourage people to bring stolen money to church? after you will be complaining of unanswered prayers when you come and throw accusations you know nothing about. stop being stupid and do a brain check next time before you type
DeleteIt is well
ReplyDeletePeople should help us with job inform
Waiting patiently for Daddy Freeze opinion
ReplyDeletehmmm...if I talk wetin I know, d internet will burn. For the sake of His name, I ll hold my peace. But den, we shall all stand before the judgement seat of the Most High. Amen
ReplyDeleteI wonder if it is because we are so forgiving or so stupid that we allow pastors, criminals, kidnappers and politicians who steal from us and do us harm to ride over us time and time again... So we aid and abate them to continue the injustice. God is merciful but He is also a God of justice who renders to each man according to what they do.
ReplyDeleteI have noted that people who still in Church do so because they have lost respect for God and such needs to be taught wisdom by being handed over to civil authority to deal with. Such people cannot be reformed by forgiveness...
