Oga Bisi, There is Hypocrisy in The Redeemed Christian Church of God

Good Morning Oga Bisi.


Do you know that if all the pastors of the parishes of our church, The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) are true God fearing ministers of Almighty God and true Christians, they would have purchased the two thousand copies of your book, "The Stories of Pastor E. A. Adeboye : The Power of Testimony" since 2019 and you and I will not be broke today, because if all the copies were sold for even only N3, 000 a copy, you would have recouped the millions of naira you spent on the publication of such an awesome book approved by our General Overseer with the foreword by Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, the Vice President of Nigeria. 
Your parish alone should have collected 1,000 copies of the book.

I took copies of the book to my parish and other parishes of the RCCG, but the pastors refused to collect and pay for the book. My pastor did not allow the book to be sold in our parish, but accepted the copy I gave as an offering when I did not have any money to give.

I actually paid for the copies of the book I told you I sold, because I used the testimonies of Daddy Adeboye for evangelism and gave the copies free to those who could not afford it.

When I was working for our official magazine, The Redemption Light in the Office of the GO under Pastor Anthony Ojo, we struggled to sell 10, 000 copies of the magazine to the parishes at the Redemption Camp even during the monthly Holy Ghost Night vigils, because majority of the members of the church preferred reading the popular celebrity gossip tabloids like the City People and Encomium to reading The Redemption Light magazine.
The fact is We are what we read and What we read is What we are.

There is too much hypocrisy in the RCCG.
Hypocrisy is the largest religion in Nigeria. Because majority of the so called "Christians" and "Muslims" don't practice true Christianity and true Islam.
They are shameless hypocrites.
As our MESSIAH JESUS Christ said in Matthew 15:7-10:
7 Ye hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying,

8 This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me.

9 But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.

10 And he called the multitude, and said unto them, Hear, and understand:"


Cheers Sir.

Because The Prophet Lied


 The old prophet answered, "I too am a prophet, as you are. And an angel said to me by the word of the LORD: 'Bring him back with you to your house so that he may eat bread and drink water.'" (But he was lying to him.)

1 Kings 13:18.

Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.

~ 1 John 4:1

The Prophet Lied is a collection of original poems on the existential realities of life on earth by a romantic poet of the school of Eclecticism whose daily experiences in his own country have given him the deepest insights on the temptations, trials and triumphs of the human spirit.

Jesus Would Have Shared Coffee with the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo

Jesus Would Have Shared Coffee with the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, Says Author of New Book, Woman Meets Jesus

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., March 2, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- "Lisbeth Salander, the troubled female in the Oscar-winning film The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, is exactly the kind of woman that Jesus would invite for coffee," says Ruth Vander Zee, author of the new book Woman Meets Jesus (Edenridge Press). "Salander," says Vander Zee, "may not fit in at most churches but is the type of exploited woman that Jesus would befriend in the face of social and religious criticism."

Salander, played by Rooney Mara, is a gifted, but deeply troubled young woman with bleached eyebrows, a black Mohawk, tattoos, leather-and-chain dress, combat boots, and atypical body piercings.

"Jesus was a radical rabbi who reached out to females who didn't fit in with the religious and social communities," says Vander Zee. "He didn't care what the religious elites - the Sadducees and Pharisees - thought about women."

Vander Zee, who spent years studying Jesus' often-overlooked interactions with women, concludes in her new book that Jesus challenged the religious establishment's oppressive view of women and befriended and advocated for females like Salander. "Jesus stood up for exploited, rejected, isolated, desperate, and self-destructive women," says Vander Zee.

Vander Zee grew up in the church, learned the popular Bible stories, and eventually married a pastor. But later she chose to look at the second-class status women often occupied within the walls of the church. She decided to dig deeper into Jesus' personal encounters with women. What she discovered changed her view of women and Jesus.

In order to show how radical Jesus really was, Vander Zee retells the stories of Jesus' encounters with biblical women from their own, first-person perspectives. One woman is the prostitute who visited Jesus at Simon the leper's house and offended the respected guests by lavishing perfume upon Jesus. Another is the ostracized woman at the well who had multiple husbands. Yet another is the untouchable woman who hemorrhaged for 12 years.

"The whole idea that Jesus was anti-women is a modern myth," says Vander Zee. "I can imagine Jesus sitting in a Stockholm cafe with Salander, tearfully listening to her life story and encouraging her to follow the way of the prophet Micah to act justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with her new-found advocate, Jesus."

Ruth Vander Zee is the award-winning author of social-issue-oriented children's books, including Erika's Story, Mississippi Morning, Eli Remembers, and Always With You. A self-described late bloomer, she earned her college degree when she was 40, wrote her first book when she was 55, speaks to church and women's groups across North America, and writes the popular blog journey-of-faith.com. She lives in Miami, Florida.
