The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) General Overseer, Pastor E.A Adeboye has made a shocking revelation.
The revered man of God made the revelation at the Day-6 of the just concluded 72nd Annual Convention, themed: “Heaven”.
He said: “We talk about corruption in Nigeria. Why do you think corruption has become so deep? it is because we Christians, who are supposed to be peculiar people, are not making any difference. It’s so difficult to even know who is who.”
“You must be as pure as light, people must be able to see you at a distance and know that this is a candidate for heaven. In your behaviour, character, you must be different.”
“If you want to compromise because of promotion, let them take their promotion because you are a peculiar people.”
“The world will hate you because of your standard, because your standard is that of God.”
“One of my daughters got a contract to tar a road in one of the states in Nigeria. She gave a proposal of N3 million, but they asked her to put N33 million.”
“She was surprised, turned down the offer and said I am a child of God, how will I spend the money? They looked at her as if she was somebody who dropped from the sky.”
“Another child of mine told another story. She applied for a contract. They gave her to go and tar a road. She got to the road and found that the road was already tarred.”
“She came back and told them there must have been a mistake. They said,” What is your problem, collect your money and give us our own.”
“Holiness means total obedience to God. I have been sober since yesterday. It took special love that God did not knock me on the head. God wanted to talk, but I wanted to preach a sermon that I had prepared.”
“He told me,” You have done fine enough. He wanted me to get out of the way. As he was talking, I was interrupting.”
“No one can love the church more than the owner of the church You are dealing with God almighty. You can’t love the church more than the owner of the church. When he says this is how I want to go and you try to do it your way, you are on your own.”
