Stop manipulating the poor with sowing of seed tactics – Pastor Kumuyi
Pastors who task members on sowing seeds have come under the criticism of General Superintendent, Deeper Life Christian Life Ministry, Pastor William Kumuyi .
He has challenged them to stop sucking poor members with the preaching.
Kumuyi made the declaration while reaching out to the Christian folks during a special Programme broadcast.
Th broadcast Ministerial Renewal was broadcast for church ministers and workers across the global via satellite.
Kumuyi known for his message of holiness and sanctification, advised his audience against anything that could portray the faith in bad light.
Rather than pastors milking their congregation through the message of sowing seed, they ought to be extending help to such members.
The charge is coming at an auspicious economic and political life of the country with many Nigerians battling economic depression.
Using Prophet Elijah in the Bible, who blessed the widow of Zarephat, Pastor Kumuyi charged preachers to emulate thus, adding value to the lives of those in a position not to pay back.
“You add value to people; to those who are down raise them up, those who are poor.
“There are preachers, they take the little that the widows have. In our nation here, they say if you sow this seed the Lord will multiply it a hundredfold..
“Let us be sincere, and if you are a preacher like that and you are here let’s talk; those widows have next to nothing, then we preachers we brainwash them and we tell them…and those poor widows what can they do?
“They just believe every word we speak and all they have, inheritance from their late husbands they put at the apostles’ feet, and after they have done that ‘God bless you, God bless you’ everybody can say that, and they (widows) go back home.
“Examine yourself, all those people that have given everything as their prophet told them in our land, where are they today, how are they feeling, how are their children doing, how are they sending their children to school?
“Instead of the prophet that has millions already; instead of him looking for the widows who their children are not in school and sponsor them just for God’s glory, we don’t have that.
“We only have those that take from the widows and render them poorer and they are getting richer and richer”, Pastor Kumuyi said.
