Thank you Dr Apoki for this life transforming message. You spoke to me personally. I am a pastor and also a victim of mega church abuse. Your message is a lifesaver to me. Thank you very much sir.
Truth spoken here! No one should be in church the whole day that is not staff of the church. Only cults operate this way. Alot of african origin pentecostal churches do not put structures in place to handle administrative and the business side of things with paid staff and put that burden on church members who they deny time with their family and children and even opportunities to invest in and advance themselves. As they do this, they milk all their resources and offer very little help when they are in crisis. If you are not full time on staff in any church, manage yourself and the hours you spend on the church premises and use that time to plan for your future.
it starts small from one calling you pastor even when you are a member,,, if you are not careful it will get into your head,. whenever I minister I get praised and called pastor I immediately reject it, I say I'm not a pastor ooo. even when the church leadership say it I told them I dont want to be a pastor and I will make sure of it and it almost caused an issue, they left me alone from calling me such ,,, I still minister at times. if you are not meant to be dont be a pastor. Even Apostle Paul was a tent maker yet these days you hear someone call himself fulltime pastor,,,, mcheww. Great job sir.
It never ceases to amaze me how grown up men/ women expect another human being to be responsible for their lives. Daddy GOs (church superintendents) are just like CEOs, they are not responsible for anybody’s life. If you are not happy with whatever you are doing, get out of it and find something that will bring fulfillment in to your life. I feel sorry for most of these pastors because by the time they realize it, they are already in their old age.
Wow. This is a secret expose😮 Many mega churches will not like this video if they come across it. I will save this video. Thank you Dr. For always standing for the truth 🙏 ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I know a 65 years old from The Seven Day Advantist Church who empties his family's saving to help build a new church building because the pastor told " it was God's will". What??? Neverrrrrrrrrr
And for you members it is wonderful to give to the Lord but if you have a relative who needs help please give them first the pastor can go get a day job to feed his children
Thank you sir, it's mind blowing... My cousin was ordained in RCCG as a FT pastor, after many years of suffering n smiling, he managed to travel to Europe, now he as sent his resignation letter stating he's not called but frustration called him then. Now he's doing fine with his family... What a shame to those that believed hima way back
You say shame on them that believed him? If you listen to someone reading the scriptures and you believe what is read and repent. Did you believe the person reading the Word or the WORD you heard?
Dr, you are a blessing to this generation.What is happening in mega churches is a time bomb that will explode with time.Wisdom is profitable to direct.You see people in their 40s that refusee to work and insist God told them not to engage in circular work or biz,and i wonder what they do in 24hours,7 days ,and round the year just doing ministry work
My tears are just coming on hearing this message thanks Daddy you are like a father to me now i thank God for the wisdom the holy spirit gave me to go back to school and now i am getting done with the 4 years degree in Bsc Agricultural and straight i will go for my masters and phd subsequently even though i am a pastor.#Uganda
God bless Sir. When I listen to u I just see the fulfilment of Isa 50:4 in you as a person. Thank you for the courage to say the truth... because that is what sets free.
No reasonable person that God created with brain should tell me about unemployment. If there's no employment create one for yourself. I quitted paid employment at 40 to run my own enterprise,today i am grateful to God
This is absolutely true. Thank you, Dr Apoki for pointing out this truth about what is happening in our churches. This is been going on for years. Now some of them are now getting older. And they are faced with the reality.
Thank apoki I love you sir and i follow you from Rwanda what you say is what we see in our childhood when we grow up make Christianity they’re so brindle
Dr Charles Apoki,thanks for your wisdom. Volunteers have family to cater for. He spends daily,he shoyld generate income daily. Where no income is given to the volunteer He will steal
Many thanks to Doctor Charles Apoki and your wife for such wisdom. Absolute practical living. Indeed we can serve God while having a secular job to take care of our family. Of course it is written if one cannot take care of his family, how can he manage a Ministry or the House of God? God bless you Sir.
I know a Prophet that is a member of Anglican Church, he is put as preacher once a month in the church and he has his own prayer meeting every Wednesday somewhere. He never take credit for anything, he is very humble.
Thank you sir for liberating our people from future regrets of not using their God’s given potentials to the maximum. Must we all become full men/women of God before we serve and worship Him?Must we build churches in all the places before we serve God? We serve and worship God when we do those things that will positively impact the lives of others . We don’t need to be a full time pastor in a church before serving Him. We serve God by producing food for the weak and hungry, we worship God by taking care of the vulnerable people. Just anything that will help others because we are created in the image of God. Out of ten Christians in Nigeria, four are pastors and even the younger ones that blood are still flowing through their veins. God- will- provide men of God are what we have in Nigeria today, no jobs,why would some of them not lie, they all want to have ministries in the foreign lands. Time will tell.
I was in a Mega church in Ghana. I was serving as a shepherd. I will go on evangelism on Saturdays and organise bible studies for the souls won,same Saturday evening with my Lady Pastor. On sunday, i will mobilise the souls won and bus them to church. Right after church, there would be series of meetings till 7-9pm. When I decided to leave for home after church service around 1pm, my pastor told me that I wasn’t catching the spirit of the church. I told her, I would serve in any capacity to assit but to stay till evening was just too much and if it would create issues, I would like to excuse myself. And I did. Haven’t found a church to settle yet, but…
I am glad you used your head otherwise you would have been used like a tool in order to build someone else's empire. Churches are the personal properties of these so-called men of God. When you understand this then the rest is really simple.
God asks for Mercy not sacrifice. Anything that sacrifices you or goes beyond your physical capacity is called abuse. Where there's the Spirit of God there's freedom.
To the best of my understanding, like you have said discover what God has in plan for us and follow the plan. And all these issues you have enumerated will not exist.
Can anyone force rapture? Many of the modern day slaves are non thinkers. Isa3:10 says " Say ye to the righteous it shall be well with you,you shall eat the fruits of your doings. Not the doings of your GO. All GOs are in modern day slavery right in our father land.
This message is not you, but the holy spirit direct,I know of a pastor who always beg me for money,I thought he should be rich man until I went to his house, Big church have frustrated many pastors, the G.O and his family are swimming on money, and they direct the branches to bring all the money to the headquarters, but the Bible says the early church bring all these money and tithes and they shared everything in common that no one lack, but our G.O will never preach this Bible portion in the pulpit, they turn church into private business and property, this is not the intention of Jesus Christ and non of Christ disciples practiced it, criminal and greedy G.o are deceiving the gullible followers and junior pastors, they live in affluence , buying private jets,while members live in penury, enough is enough, all churches must be own by everyone not individuals, example is Jehovah's witnesses.thanks.
Rapture didn't take place quickly as he expected 😅😊😂😮😅 daddy ur a comedian 💯 church business is really thriving nd only daddy G o nd mummy G o are cashing out 😊😅😂 am a Catholic nd will die one we no dey pay tithe or first fruits neither do we ask for fake miracles 😅😅😅😅 Salvation is a personal rhing 💯
This may sound like I don't believe in but I do I just know Jesus isn't the son of God and this is a major downfall amongst our people. You are telling the truth sir and people are not destroying their time because of pastors only:it's the false teachings that the preachers present and self gratification
