A former pastor with the Deeper Life Bible Church, Gideon Akande has attacked the Founder and General Superintendent for inviting strange spirits to the church.
Akande described the guests as ‘Philistines’ who were intentionally invited to a church-sponsored event.
Pastor Akande added that they were “Strangers with strange spirits.”
According to Pastor Akande, the invitees are “strangers with strange spirits.”
He bared his mind in an open letter on Saturday where he urged Kumuyi to “go home and rest” if he was tired of leading the church instead of destroying what he spent years building
The former former reminded the G S of the church’s vision stressing that he should focus on winning souls, which was the Deeper Life Mnistry’s initial mission.
Former First Bank of Nigeria Chairman Ibukun Awosika, gospel singer Dunsin Oyekan, and co-founder of Andela, Iyinoluwa Aboyeji, were invited for a program, and according to Akande, the invitees are Philistines who should have no business with the church.
LETTER TO PASTOR KUMUYI: IS THERE NO PROPHET IN ISRAEL?
“When I was in Deeper Life Bible Church then, as a youth instructor, for all the district, regional and state programs, we would invite the best educators, doctors, professionals and others, all successful members of Deeper Life with the same spiritual quality and values and those programs impartations are part of my business success today.
“But today, look at the flyer, are you saying there are no more successful people in Deeper Life Bible Church than those strangers invited?
“Are you saying there are no anointed brothers who can sing better than Dunsin from all the global crusades with different ministrations from Deeper Life choirs?
“Are there no prophets in Israel that DLBC and Pastor Kumuyi are busy engaging Philistines to their altars because they are obsessed with popularity, anyone popular now is invited?
“I hope you will not begin to invite Christian comedians in the coming years.
“I am no more in Deeper Life Bible Church, God called me into media evangelism but Deeper Life remains my home church.
“Sir, Pastor Kumuyi, If you are tired, go home and rest but don’t ruin what you have built for years because I am scared.
“This is how old RCCG that Rev Akindayomi built collapsed and new model of RCCG emerged. It started gradually by inviting strangers who come with strange spirits. I can’t imagine the various strange spirits those youth will be imparted with in this program.
“May God help His servant and His church.”
William Folorunso Kumuyi (born 6 June 1941) is the founder and General Superintendent of the Deeper Christian Life Ministry.
