Nigeria’s musician and social crusader, Charles Oputa better known as Charly Boy has chosen the route of attacking on pastors over the way and manner they conduct their services with various motives.
According to the singer, he described the way the pastors are living extravagantly while some of their members do not have food to eat as the height of wickedness.
He stated that the pastors have now turned the bible upside down and now preach about prosperity rather than how to be a brother’s keeper.
In his opinion, he wrote;
How can you be living extravagantly when some church members can’t even afford a meal? That is the height of wickedness. Enough of the deceit, enough of turning the bible upside down to suit people’s ears while they suffer in poverty.
We need spirituality not religiosity. Even with all these churches at every junction and every bending corner,every brothel and hotel, morality is at an all time low. The church should be a place for spiritual nourishment and not a kalukalu venture, or for prosperity preaching. Pastors should concentrate more on how we should all be our brothers keepers, rather than praying for us to be rich like them.
God does not operate like a Babalawo neither is he a Nigerian. I am wondering if me too won’t open my own church ,but it will be different because i will never use Gods name in vain. All these our so called Men of God should come out and hustle like real men and stop using psychology to deceive ignorant people and take their money. Haba!!! I guess that is their own hustle. Where is the humility that Christ talked about? If anyone is not leading by the examples of Jesus just like the pope, then his Manofgodizim is very questionable. I thought they said the meaning of Christianity was Christ likeness…I’m just wondering. Maybe I’m lost. Abeg, I rest my case joor. Man of God my ass, who dash them. I Am even a better BOY of GOD than those MEN OF GOD. Gbam!
