Reno Omokri, others back Winners Chapel say church is in order

Without a doubt, the report concerning the sack of 40 pastors by the Living Faith Church International, popularly known as Winners’ Chapel, has generated many reactions. However, in reacting to the development Reno Omokri in a Twitter post said the church is in order.

“I read the letter from Winners Chapel. it did not mention anything about money. Rather, it used the word “church growth”. Christ called us to engage in evangelism-Matthew 28:18-20. A pastor who fails at that should be sacked-Matthew 25:29. Winners Chapel is in order.”

While speaking on his sack, Pastor Peter Godwin claimed that the church sacked the pastors in Ekiti State for having a church growth index that falls below expectations.

“I was told by the management that the church doesn’t operate at a loss. “They also told me that the total income that is being generated from my station should be able to cater for my welfare and accommodation, so as a result of low income, I’m hereby dismissed.”

More so, a Facebook user identified as Kareem Olowopere Lateef Dada, who reacted to Godwin’s statement cited the Parable of the talent narrated by Jesus Christ in the Bible.

He said, “Parable of the talent, A master gave talents to three different men according to their capacity. One was given five talents, another one was given three talents.

“This man here is the third man, he was giving only one talent. The master went on a journey and came back after a while and asked them what they did with the talents given to them. The rest double their talent. It was the only this man that did nothing with his talent.”
