SYMPTOMS OF DECEPTION #1: When people don’t have personal relationship with Jesus Christ but are comfortable with using elements like: water, oil, salt etc that are provided for them by their charlatan pastors to appease the strange god they do not know. They will prefer to have deep intimate with their so called men of ‘God’ rather that than to have direct communication with their Heavenly Father. This is the reason they are contented and enjoys calling on a third-party god, the god of their pastors.
SYMPTOMS OF DECEPTION #2: They will prefer to Exalt [praising, glorifying] the men of ‘God’ more than they praise the One who laid down His Life for their redemption – Jesus Christ.
SYMPTOMS OF DECEPTION #3: ….the ‘God’ of “My Pastor” phenomenon….
SYMPTOMS OF DECEPTION #4: The [abuse] and mis-context of the ‘twins’; “do not judge” and “touch not the anointed” They do not know or realize that God was not referring to Moses and Aaron alone, but the whole congregation of Israelites (1Chronicles 16:22; Psalm 105:15).
SYMPTOMS OF DECEPTION #5: Fights and follows Staged [rehearsed] miracles and ‘prophesies’
SYMPTOMS OF DECEPTION #7: The syndrome of regarding one gift of the Spirit or office of ministry superior than the others.
SYMPTOMS OF DECEPTION # 8: “I don’t care what [he/she] does behind, but God is using him/her mightily” We will know them by fruits not by gifts.
SYMPTOMS OF DECEPTION #9: The so called ‘Deep Revelations’ that contradict the Logos [written Word] and those without biblical references. [The Spirit and the Bible are one]
SYMPTOMS OF DECEPTION #10: Paying homage to angels.
SYMPTOMS OF DECEPTION #11: Helping God by believing that the name of Jesus (Philippians 2:8-9) is not enough but you need to have some mediums [anointed elements stuffs]. The Bible record usage of mediums but it was not a doctrine and was never sold.
SYMPTOMS OF DECEPTION #12 My church, My congregation, My sheep Syndrome “Nobody who leaves [my] church/ministry succeed where they go.” Some people are afraid to leave some ministries/ churches because they have been told that they will be cursed.. [The church of the LORD is not a secret cult] RUN FOR YOUR LIFE
SYMPTOMS OF DECEPTION #13: Paying money to be prayed for; healing, deliverance, special prayers, seeing /meeting a man of ‘God’ etc. Freely you have received, freely you must give. For the gifts of YHWH can not be bought by money.
SYMPTOMS OF DECEPTION #14: “I was born already baptized with the Holy Spirit in the womb. “ Run away from such people!
SYMPTOMS OF DECEPTION #15: The miracle money phenomenon. Our Father in heaven is not a magician please take note! And when the foundation of your relationship with God is based on your physical needs, you will suffer in the hands of Charlatans.
SYMPTOMS of DECEPTION conclusion: Deception is real and spreading like wild fire. The author of Deception is the devil and he has human agents around us. The target is men not animals. The purpose is to attack the people of God from within the church. The enemy within is lethal than enemy without. Please, whenever you go to Church or gathering of the saints, do not forget your brains at home.
Please, Don’t be hungry for the manifestation of Spirit, be hungry for YHWH and His Word of Truth. Be reminded that we are commanded to test every spirits and believe not anything that looks spiritual.[1 John 4:1]. If you don’t stand for something, you will fall for anything. We ought to know that both YHWH and satan operates in the spiritual; and if you don’t allow the Holy Spirit to guide you, you can be led astray. Every gift of The Spirit is subject to counterfeiting, that’s why we have the gift of discernment of spirits. Every Shepherd must be on guard against deception by teaching the flock the ways of the Spirit. Every sheep should learn how to test every ‘pasture’ that looks edible. But How to the spirits???
WHEN THE CHURCH BECOMES A BUSINESS 1) Pastors function like CEOs 2) Members are turned into customers 3) Other churches are seen as competitors 4) Evangelism is reduced to marketing 5) Church planting looks more like franchising 6) Numbers are primary measure of success 7) Prayer and Word study are replaced by formulas 8) Revival is reduced to fund-raising program 9) Preaching sounds more like motivational speech. All the people do is shout “I receive, Amen,” throughout the concert. I mean the “service”. 10) Praise and Worship is turned into a performance. The best actors are made the worship and praise leaders. 11) The Spirit of God is reduced to “emotionalism”. No real power of God other than hypnosis and sensationalism. 12) The goats are entertained instead of equipping the saints 13) Disciples of Christ have become papa’s sons, daughters and fans. 14) The Church, a living Body has now become a lifeless body 15) A leader’s empire is built instead of the Kingdom of God advancement. 16) The pastor becomes the super man and Jesus Christ reduced to just another religious figure. Does any one of these sound farmiliar in this generation? Beloved, if you are under these pattern of “christianity” you are already in a cult, not the Church of Jesus Christ. Get out before it is too late!!! All I have highlighted above is exactly what made Jesus Himself to ask: “When the Son of Man comes, will He find faith in the Earth?” (Luke 18.8) AMEN!!!
IT IS NOT YET OVER FOR ANYONE UNTIL GOD SAYS IT IS ALL OVER. FOR OUR SAKES, PROTOCOLS CAN BE SUSPENDED OR SET ASIDE, TIME AND SEASONS CAN BE COMPRESSED FOR ANYONE TO TAP INTO HIS 11TH HOUR MIRACLE BY HIS MERCY AND FAVOUR.
And about the eleventh hour he went out, and found others standing idle, and saith unto them, Why stand ye here all the day idle? They say unto him, Because no man hath hired us. He saith unto them, Go ye also into the vineyard; and whatsoever is right, that shall ye receive. So when even was come, the Lord of the vineyard saith unto his steward, Call the labourers, and give them their hire, beginning from the last unto the first. And when they came that were hired about the eleventh hour, they received every man a penny. But when the first came, they supposed that they should have received more; and they likewise received every man a penny. And when they had received it, they murmured against the goodman of the house, Saying, These last have wrought but one hour, and thou hast made them equal unto us, which have borne the burden and heat of the day. Matthew 20:6-12 KJV
This parable is very very interesting if we are able to flow with it. I woke up at about 12:10am to do some work on my computer when the Spirit of the Lord began to engage me with this particular scriptural passage and I will like to share with you my readers. Possibly very soon I will make a video on this in our upcoming Word, Spirit And Prayers program. Kindly subscribe and join our YouTube channel for notification: Bisola Hephzi-bah Johnson – YouTube.
Right now, let me start with the word “Meditation”, which according to the book of Joshua 1:8 means to think about something over and over with deeper thoughtfulness, such as to cogitate, brood, or to ruminate. Mind you, God is not expecting us to think about evil but as Phillipians 4:8 says, “Whatever is good report, pure and lovely; we must think about.” And the Word of the fits into this module.
This meditation can be liken to the eating habits of some animals, particularly cattle that eats Cud. Cud is a portion of food that returns from this animal’s stomach back to the mouth to be chewed for the second time. This Cud is produced during a digestive process called rumination. Cattle, deer, sheep, goats and antelope are some examples of animals that chew their cud.
They usually have food reserve somewhere between their stomach and mouth. After feeding, some of the food they had eaten are stored to be recalls for thorough chew. You may see them in a position as if they are dosing, but their mouths will endlessly chewing the food until it is well soften. Chewing cud produces saliva which is important for controlling rumen acidity. The exercise helps producing milk, saliva and good digestion. Food scientists encourages even man to eat slowly and chew our food very thouroughly before swallowing.
This is the exact manner God wants us to meditate on His Word, so that we can gets the benefits of full richess of His Word, and the hard raw material taken from the Word can become soft enough to understand to become revelations to our spirit man. You may not get the full benefits if you just read the scripture like a newspaper and dump your Bible somewhere afterward, the Word must be in our heart as we go about our duties.
Now, let’s get into the matter of the day. Meditating on the parable Jesus gave concerning workers in the vineyard gave me deeper understanding of this passage which the Lord shared amongst many other parables with His followers. The master of the vineyard was a man who wishes to give other people opportunity to better their lives, no-matter the timing of the day. Jesus is saying here that God is always willing to give anyone opportunity in life; but are we willing or ready for this opportunity? If we study the way Jesus called His disciples to follow Him, we would see that He met them doing something. They were not jobless or loafing around even the job they were doing was not the best of jobs, but they kept moving. This is what it means that “Whatever your hands finds to do, do with all your might (Ecclesiastes 9:10).”
Now, if God wants to give us opportunity and we are not interested, do we think He would force us? Definitely not. Isaiah 1:19 says, “If you are willing, you will eat the good of the land.” Even if you have no job at some point, willingness to be engaged is very important. You cannot say you are willing to get a job when all you do everyday is sleeping and going to places where you go to play games. We must be strategic in positioning ourselves by learning skills, going to school in readiness to occupy high places. If God want to call you into ministry and you refused to equip yourself with the Word and surrender to the Power of the Holy Spirit, what will you teach people? Definitely, you will only be selling oil, water and handkerchives.
I remember the story of a man who had opportunity to meet with his primary school classmate who had pursued education in life to become a Governor of the State, while the mate refused to improve on himself by either go to school or learn skills to better his life. When this unusual lifetime opportunity came to him, the Governor asked his friend what he could do for him, he would have been made a commissioner, or be engaged as a contractor but unfortunately, he was not prepared for any of the opprotunity. All the friend could offer him was some feeding money that may not sustain him past few days and his circle of poverty lifestyle continue. And it is not everyday thing to meet with a Governor, therefore, we must be ready and strategic.
It is true we all love and need good life, good things don’t fall into places without planning and walking on the Pathway. For the people in the parable text (Matthew 20:6-12, though, they were jobless, they left their bed behind, and they positioned themselves where they could be seen and engaged. They showed willingness.
STRATEGICPOSITIONING
The people invited to work were not in their home sleeping and believing what will be will be, they positioned themselves where they could be reached for job appointment.
They did not deny the fact that they needed jobs, they came out to hunts for jobs.
Peter and many disciples of Jesus were not lay-about, they were into something like: fishing, tax collection and other jobs when they were called to follow the Lord.
Unfortunately many today are in churches shouting “I receive, I receive” without working out their salvation with fear and trembling. We cannot use laziness solve joblessness. The scripture says, Faith and work; not work alone or faith alone.
Another important question along this line should be: what if Jesus Christ returns today as He promised? Are we ready to meet with the Master and go with Him? Do you think you can be raptured in a beer parlour? Let us ask ourselves. The scripture says, “Today (not tomorrow) is the day of salvation 2Corithians 6:2. Procrastination or pushing things that ought to be done immediately is an enemy of the soul.
The beginning of the woes of the unprofitable servant (Luke 17:5-10) was fear to engage in the marketplace, wasted opportunity or gift given to him, and pride. Pride in the sense that we may think one job is too low for us. At least, let us do something, and whatever we do will be a stepping stone to a greater height. In this journey, we must not be weary because some people’s time may be eleveth hour (last minute).
IT IS NOT YET OVER FOR ANYONE UNTIL GOD SAYS IT IS ALL OVER. FOR OUR SAKES, PROTOCOLS CAN BE SUSPENDED OR SET ASIDE, TIME AND SEASONS CAN BE COMPRESSED FOR ANYONE TO TAP INTO HIS 11TH HOUR MIRACLE BY HIS MERCY AND FAVOUR. The last people that were engaged in that passage may not qualified because of timing but the Master went ahead to call them because they were willing and positioned rightly. None was sent to be called from home, it is those on ground that were used; and they were rewarded handsomely. This call for resolute, and prayer for last minute strenght. Moses was called into the ministry at the age of 80years when others are at the brink of death. Moses didn’t give up because he once failed. The most ridiculous job is to work for your father in law which Moses did with all pleasure. You could be labeled as a gold digger, shameless fellow but Moses knew he needed to hold that job tentatively till the promise of God come to manifestation in his life and God never fails (Numbers 23:19.
Those who laugh at your condition today will glorify God through your advancement tomorrow. Don’t be discouraged because of your age or because your age mates had gone ahead of you in life, be resolute, prayerful and be strategic in getting ready to receive your miracle. You may be commonized today, but within yourself you know you are of royalty, what you are waiting for is the time your King will come to fulfil His plans and purpose for your life. Help is on the way; wait for it.
Keep the faith. Don’t stop working, the rewarder is faithful.
I pray that the Holy Spirit of God will help us to fulfilled His call upon our lives in Jesus Mighty Name. Till I come your way again if Jesus Christ tarries….
Shalom

“And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion…” (Genesis 1: 26). God said, “let them have dominion…”. The people that God created were all expected to have dominion. Dominion was everyone’s portion; God did not create some people to be in dominion and created others to be away from dominion. God invited everyone to be in dominion; everyone was involved.
You are a partaker of God’s plan. You are made in the image of God, not in the image of fear, or confusion. God has not chosen some people to succeed and confined you among those who won’t succeed. You won’t be left out while others are in dominion; you won’t be bypassed when God blesses others; you won’t be a spectator when others do exploit; you are involved in what God is doing. I love what 1Peter 2:9 says; “But you are a chosen people (Collective, not selective), a royal priesthood, a holy nation. God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous Light.” This is most interesting and beautiful; but the unfortunate part of the situation is that, you can take a horse to the river, but you can’t force the horse to drink water. Even-though, God has given us all things, its on you to make use of what you are given. It is your choice and my choice to control the resources at our disposal. God says, as people rule their world, you will also rule your world; as people make progress, you too will make progress; as people rise higher, you will rise even higher; as people receive miracles and breakthroughs, you will not be left behind, you will receive your portion. As people’ coasts are enlarged and put in charge, you will be enlarged and put in charge of greater resources. Remember the proverb of the unprofitable servant, the master set everyone up. The master put everyone in charge of different offices peculiar to them, but someone refused to take charge. Whatever God does for others, He will also do for you when the time is right. David said in Psalm 31:15, “My times is in the hands of the mighty God.
Don’t let anyone make you feel less human, or that you aren’t among those who are destined to succeed in life. The problem with many people is that success as been misinterpreted to mean what is it not. Thereby many are running after illusion and ephemerals. Let no one make you believe you don’t have what it takes to rule your world, it has been built in you. The fact that some people are ahead of you doesn’t mean that God has abandoned you. The son of King David who learn under his father says in Ecclesiastes 3:11, “He makes all things beautiful in His time.”
The fact that some miracles haven’t come to you doesn’t mean that God doesn’t have you in His plans. If some good things haven’t come your way, it doesn’t mean they won’t come. I remember the promises of God for Habakkuk 2:3, it come to a time that everything look as if nothing was coming to pass. So, God assured him to wait for the vision.
If good things are happening to people around you, thank God on their behalf, and be patient; ask Abraham, Hannah, Elizabeth, and many more. Soon, it will be your turn to smile because you are also involved. Is is said, “If anybody is going to change this world, it would be us, true followers of Jesus Christ.” Do not fold your hands, we have been empowered to go forth and do the needful, with equal strength, Power of the Holy Spirit, equal command and One Master. WE ARE ALL INVOLVED TO CHANGE THE WORLD. Do not allow yourself to be walk-over. Do not let anyone re-configured you. Do not feel pity for yourself. We are loved equally and impacted equally. I can’t say this enough. All you need is courage to step out. Everything you need to live gloriously is inside of you, built in you. Look at yourself in a mirror with the eyes of the Spirit of God, and speak life to yourself, speak blessings to yourself and call yourself the name God calls you.
Pray With me and say: Lord, I will not be left out while others make progress, I am involved, in Jesus’ name!
Have A Fabulous Sunday!

Immediately TB Joshua died, there has been looting amongst the workers who fear for their future.

Today I bring to you another dimension of evil I witnessed while I was at the Synagogue of TB Joshua. Remember I said I was one of the few privileged top leaders (Inner Caucus) that could see or listen to private conversations between TB Joshua and his visitors (customers); and I was also used to involve in many manipulations going on in the Synagogue at the call of TB Joshua to deceive many gullible visitors. You are free to like, comments and share my post with others to enlighten them.
TB JOSHUA DEALINGS WITH DRUG PUSHERS
Hard Drugs
I write this authoritatively because I was privy to how Drug Barons patronized T.B. Joshua while I was coordinating visitors; I knew some of them at the time I was in the Synagogue. I do see and overheard discussions between some visitors and T.B. Joshua whenever they visit him. Mostly on the evenings of their departure from Nigeria to wherever they are transporting drugs to, these people must see T.B. Joshua to receive his final ‘prayer/blessings’ arrangements for them to be able to pass through security check points at the International Airport without been caught.
There were different sets of men and women drug cartel that patronized T.B. Joshua when I was there. There was a particular man called Mr. VINCENT, who was caught at Heathrow Airport and was charged to court in London for transporting hard drugs into London. One day, Vincent called into the Synagogue to inform T.B. Joshua about the day he would be appearing in court so that T.B. Joshua could do what he normally do to overturn such cases to his advantage, but T.B. Joshua was not in the office at the time he called. At that particular time, I was the only person that was allowed to attend to international phone calls, and I do receive messages on behalf of T.B. Joshua before Mr. Jimoh joined the ‘disciples’ quarters.
Therefore, after receiving Mr. Vincent’s call, I assured him that I would pass the information to T.B. Joshua immediately he returns to the office. When T.B. Joshua came back, of course I had to deliver all the call messages I received in his absence, amongst others, as I made mentioned of Mr. Vincent, T.B. Joshua descended a very hot slap on my face that took me to another frequency, I was confused, I could not remember what I did wrong to deserve such unexpected reaction. Though we all knew T.B. Joshua to be erratic and eccentric; after his sudden breakout on you, and he might have calm down, he will call such person and give you almost his eyes to pacify you.
Anyway, as usual I took the pain the way it came as a ‘disciple’ that must not complain; but I wondered why he suddenly hated Mr. Vincent. I thought this was a man who had done so much for the Synagogue and T.B. Joshua. The first ever full colored Rank Xerox printing machine T.B. Joshua used in printing his first bulletin before he bought Heidelberg was delivered to the Synagogue by this same Mr. Vincent free of charge. In fact, I personally received the document of the machine from Mr. Vincent on behalf of T.B. Joshua on arrival. In addition to all that, anytime he returned from his numerous overseas trips, he used to return with expensive clothes, designer perfume, and other things, including huge sums of money for T.B. Joshua.

Anyway, Bose Black who also know most of the visitors was kind enough to explain to me later that the man (Vincent) has been nabbed and was in jail, and he could be under security surveillance; so T.B. Joshua does not want UK police to trace his call down to the Synagogue (but I did not know!), this is part of T.B. Joshua’s wickedness, he always like to cover his tracts. How did he know about the man’s arrest, if not that some of the drug cartel had informed him? After Mr. Vincent’ episode, many drug pushers were also arrested at the Nigeria Airport, and it dawn on them that T.B. Joshua had been deceiving them and collecting their money under false pretense and deceit that he was ‘praying’ for them.
Therefore, they fingered T.B. Joshua as part of their rackets to the Police. The Nigeria Drug Law Enforcement Agency swung into action, and arrested T.B. Joshua. When T.B. Joshua received information about his impending arrest, suddenly a private property of T.B. Joshua inside his marine mountain caught fire, in a place surrounded by massive body of water, 7story as it was called burnt to ashes. When the solders that were sent to search through his marine mountain that fateful morning found nothing to pin on him, they arrested him, but since they believed he was not dealing directly in drugs, but was only offering spiritual support to the couriers, he was eventually set free after been in detention for 9days. Inside the prison, he frantically sent messages around to those people in position of authority who had at one time or the other benefited from his spiritual arrangement to solicit for his bailout. An ordinary ‘disciple’ or member of the Synagogue may not know in detail the reason T.B. Joshua was arrested at that time. He always use people’ ignorance to appeal for sympathy. Mr. Vincent was sentenced to a jail term in London for trafficking hard drugs into UK. After he finished his jail term, they deported him back to Nigeria; he visited the Synagogue couple of time and later stopped, he died years later of HIV.
TB Joshua is a double-faced, what you see him doing on Emmanuel TV is completely different behind the scene. I Pray that the light in God’s Word will shine into the souls of people, so that they can follow God, and not men.
Blessings!
Whatever the trouble that may confront you, read-ON CHRIST THE ROCK
19 The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; 20 idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions 21 and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God.
Matthew 7:16-20King James Version
16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
As one who once lived inside the Synagogue, ‘church’ of all nations, Lagos, Nigeria; where uprightness, discipline and purity is expected, but the reverse is the case with TB Joshua. The first hand experiences I had in the Synagogue of TB Joshua are experiences of a lifetime and I will continually to use them to educate people and enlighten their minds so that they will not fall into the pit of bewitchment God delivered people like me from. Be warned! Many did not survived it.
THE ABIOLAS’ STORY
Mr. Abiola, a very rich trailer transporter in his lifetime lived on Abiola Adeyemi Street, Governor Road, Ikotun, Lagos, took T.B. Joshua (then, his name was Abdul-Fatai) into his home, he fed him, and accommodated him when T.B. Joshua was still a struggling young man in Lagos, until he disappeared from their house to join himself with one Celestial prophet called ‘lion of judah’ and Professor Peller, a renown magician respectively. The humble room that accommodated T.B. Joshua at that time is still in the compound of Abiolas till date.
Later in years, vicissitudes of life blew on Abiola family, and as one who was not standing strong in the Lord, they began knocking on several doors of prayer houses, and patronised many spiritual arrangers; believing these contractors could help turn their dwindling financial situation around for good. One day according to the late father, a family friend of theirs introduced them (the Abiolas) to the Synagogue. It was a pleasant surprise for Abiola patriarch to meet with T.B. Joshua once again in life, but this time, not as a struggling young man he knew him to be, but as someone he thought to be in position of spiritual authority to help his family solve their life’s riddle. After both men recognized each other (Mr. Abiola and T.B. Joshua), and they catch up on what led to their separation, and what happened after they got separated. Mr. Abiola trusted T.B. Joshua because he thought kindness begets kindness, the family has at once upon a time shown Fatai, now T.B. Joshua kindness, so, they believe it was payback time.
The Abiolas joined the Synagogue in full force, accepting T.B. Joshua as member of their family. Abiola matriarch became one of the ‘good women’ and the patriarch was active in another department. After a long period of time of dedication, their situation did not change for better, rather, T.B. Joshua proposed to Mr. Abiola to join his ‘disciples’ fully, the elder man declined due to old age and family responsibilities. Whenever Mr. Abiola visited the Synagogue in those days to ask for help; T.B. Joshua would send me to the cash office to collect some smallest denomination of banknotes of the amount he intended given to the elderly man and packed it in a brown envelope to look big to deceive Mr. Abiola. It would weigh heavy in Mr. Abiola’s hand as if T.B. Joshua had given him some large amount of money, which would disappoint him when he gets home.
Soon after, Mr. Abiola died and was buried. After his burial, T.B. Joshua took into his custody Mr. Abiola’s underage 3 girls under the guise to relieve Mrs. Abiola of too much of financial burden, what a noble thing to do, but can T.B. Joshua be this good? They trusted him, but T.B. Joshua betrayed the trust by sexually abused those underage girls with many abortions committed for them.
I remember the time when one of them, Seun Abiola, a very quiet, gentle and talented girl newly joined the ‘disciples’ quarters. T.B. Joshua had called me out of the studio one night into his living room to rub dusting powder on his body before he sleep; it is a usual thing in the Synagogue which ladies do for T.B. Joshua while he would be staked naked. So this very day, Seun Abiola was also there with us. I was doing one part of his body, while Seun was busy with the other part as T.B. Joshua laid on his belly on a couch. At a time, T.B. Joshua would take Seun Abiola’s hand and dip it into his boxer to rub his private part, but because the girl was just a minor of 14year old, she would say, “Nooo, please sir,” squeezing her face to show her displeasure and shyly faced down. After a while, T.B. Joshua excused me out and I went back to the Studio leaving Seun behind with T.B. Joshua. Seun continued to enjoy the privilege of a new girl in the block by staying alone with T.B. Joshua all night, until she graduated and became very bold among the ‘disciples’ and we all knew that Seun had been inducted into the inner caucus hall of sex fame by T.B. Joshua. Afterwards, Seun’s sisters, ‘Motunrayo joined her as ‘disciple’, and ‘Mojoyin, the youngest was 11 year old followed.
After many years they had lived in the Synagogue, without going to school but they were working in the studio and were also members of the chorister because of their voice talents. Things took a new turn when one day as T.B. Joshua travelled out of the country to South Korea. Nevertheless, before he left Nigeria, he had asked Elizabeth Armstrong to do a dirty job for him by setting Seun Abiola up before his return. Because Seun had grown wings; and could no longer be curtailed by T.B. Joshua. She was always rude, sullen, and uncontrollably stubborn to TB Joshua even in public. The true position of things was that Seun’s childish expression of jealousy whenever other girls were constantly sent out of Nigeria including Seun’s sister, Motunrayo to South Africa; she was kept only behind editing table in the studio. I do not know what T.B. Joshua might have promised Seun privately as he usually hoodwinks other girls with false promises in secret, but T.B. Joshua got Seun’ reactions twisted. Also, Seun might have been suffering from psychological or emotional trauma after many abortions. This is a young girl who lost her father at tender age, and the only father figure in her life abused her sexually, emotionally and psychologically. Anyway, Seun’ sudden unpredictable actions and open rudeness towards T.B. Joshua lately threatened T.B. Joshua’s peace of mind. So, T.B, Joshua reasoned that to put Seun under check, a young man in the choir named Emmanuel Dordoye needed to be used as a guinea pig without his knowledge. After T.B. Joshua left for South Korea with his selected choir members (Anu, Anne, and Bose) without informing his general congregation; emergency Choir meeting was communicated to Dordoye alone, and when he showed up in the Synagogue for the meeting, they told him to wait for others to join him. They trikishly delayed him till later time in the night when it was unsafe for him return home and they suggested to him to use choir room for the night. As he passed the night inside their choir practice room unknowing to Seun who had gone there as usual after her work in the studio each evening to practice her trumpet. She found Dordoye sleeping, but continue her personal voice/instrument practice when Elizabeth Armstrong suddenly walked in, and cried Eureka! Elizabeth knew Seun’ timetable, she knew Dordoye was in the Synagogue, because she called Dordoye for the false choir practice. Seun was sent home when Elizabeth witnessed against her that she saw both Seun and Dordoye in the Choir room necking (it was lie from the pit of hell; this is the Synagogue’s typical lifestyle); the embarrassed Seun was speechless as her things were thrown out. T.B. Joshua had already planned things down before he left that Seun should be sent home before his return whenever the case happens.
When T.B. Joshua returned from his journey, Seun’ mother called on him to beg on behalf of the family, and complained how Seun had refused to eat and has been crying for so many days non-stop. She said she had done everything in the Book of motherhood to make Seun confess, but she maintained her innocence regarding the matter. T.B. Joshua assured the mother that since he is back home now, Seun could return to the Synagogue anytime she likes on a condition she give an open confession so that something could be used to hang on her neck and calm her down. I was with T.B. Joshua one time in his bedroom upstairs when the family called again, and T.B. Joshua asked the mother to give Seun the phone so that he could speak with her. When Seun began to cry, T.B. Joshua consoled Seun that he has nothing against her, since she knew he was not around when her saga happened. All what other ‘disciples’ requested of her was for her to give her confession openly and return to her duty post (lie, none of the ‘disciple’ ever said that). I heard when Seun calmly asked him, “which of the confession sir, the one you are doing with me or with my sisters?” T.B. Joshua quickly cut the phone on Seun as if the network was bad. He turned to me who was standing by and asked me what Seun had said, I told him I heard nothing (hear no evil).
Seun does not want to give open confession over what she did not do, many ‘disciples’ would have done that to move on; but Seun had been around a long time in the Synagogue and as an editor to know the implications of such confession. T.B. Joshua underrated the situation on ground, believing he was on top of it like other set-up cases. When Seun’ mother further threatened Seun at home about what she did by disgracing her family the day they accused her, she maintained her innocence but opened up to her mother what has been happening to her and her sisters in the Synagogue with T.B. Joshua. The mother did not believe her, rather, took her for a virginity test and it was so, so, so negative.
Seun’ mother called upon T.B. Joshua for an answer to why a virgin girl sent to him should return home as a woman. As the table suddenly turned on T.B. Joshua, he went over to Abiola’s family house secretly one night without the knowledge of all the ‘disciples’, he went there with one of the foreign ‘disciple’ called Chloe Tonge, who carried his telephone handbag for him (he takes pride moving around with foreigners to impress neighbourhood); and Brother James was the driver. T.B. Joshua took a foreigner who could not understand their discussion in local dialect. On getting into Abiola’s family house, Noah, the older brother of the young girls locked the exit gate on T.B. Joshua after he had entered into Abiola’s compound and threatened to call press reporters on him. Noah also took some pictures of T.B. Joshua on his knees, as he begged the family who had once been his benefactor in life. It took the intervention of their mother, Mrs. Abiola, who wisely advised against the intention of Noah, because she wanted one of the girls, Motunrayo, which T.B. Joshua held ransom in South Africa to use as Joker on them, to come back home first, before any showdown with him.
Through rigorous pressures mounted on T.B. Joshua, Motunrayo was recalled back to Nigeria; her mother demanded to see her, and she was permitted to visit her parent one day. She blatantly denied the allegation Seun levelled on T.B. Joshua, she insisted on staying back at the Synagogue with or without her sisters because T.B. Joshua had hypnotized her. When Motunrayo returned from her home to the Synagogue, she ridiculed her sister and mother before T.B. Joshua and the inner circle of ‘disciples’ present in T.B. Joshua’s office. She said her mother made her to swear by the Bible, and also took her to the graveside of their late father to confess to the truth. The Abiola waited patiently till the following Sunday service when mammoth crowd had gathered in the Synagogue before leading aggrieved group of people into the Synagogue’ premises, threatening to cause mayhem in the presence of all the Synagogue members if T.B. Joshua failed to release their daughter, Motunrayo to them. In no time Motunrayo’ luggage was quickly packed and sent out to follow them home. But before Motunrayo left, I saw T.B. Joshua given her a new small cell phone, and a dedicated sim card (phone line) to hide and be communicating whatever discussion going on in their home to him in the Synagogue.
For more than two weeks, every night, at about 11pm, Motunrayo would call into the Synagogue to speak with T.B. Joshua; and T.B. Joshua kept brainwashing her not to disclose to her parent anything regarding to the truth that he had sex with them, assuring her that if all matter subsided, he would arrange how Motunrayo would be sent to another country. In Abiola home one night, Motunrayo did not know that her older brother had suspected her movement, and was monitoring her closely. Noah caught her while talking secretly to T.B. Joshua and the phone was seized from her. I am putting the pieces together now, in the Synagogue, I saw that the phone used in talking to her that night was hurriedly destroyed, I wonder why they would do that then. Unfortunately, we are in a country that forensic criminal investigators will not go deeper to uncover this kind of evil. In Abiola’ house after being caught pants down, it was Motunrayo’ turn to sing like a canary as she confessed to how T.B. Joshua inducted her to his sex harem and how many abortions had been carried out on her each time she travelled outside the country. The children’ helpless mother was devastated to see the gravity of evil done to her poor young innocent girls under her watch by someone she had trusted so much. Noah, their older brother tried to fight the sexual molestation case in Nigeria court, but Nigeria’s Judiciary system is full of corruption. The case was swept under the carpet many times. T.B. Joshua used money and his evil network to disrupt the whole case. Later, Noah mysteriously developed depression, which may have happened because of T.B. Joshua’s occult arrows as his usual way of dealing with his enemies, and to silent matters against him, or could it be because of the so much trauma the family had gone through that caused Noah to have brain disorder (emotional stress)? Either way, but God who rules in the affairs of men restored him. It was also recorded how Noah narrowly escaped been assassinated by T.B. Joshua’s snippers. The recorded video clip of T.B. Joshua on his knees in Abiola’s home which they would have tendered in the court as evidence was stolen by a traitor, named Ade, within the family for T.B. Joshua in exchange for money. There was also a certain Lawyer Segun, who pretended to be helping the Abiolas to present their case in court, unknowing to the family that the Lawyer was T.B. Joshua’ secret agent. After Lawyer Segun finished his work by thwarting the case, T.B. Joshua sent hired assassin on him, to delete him. Another lady called Cynthia who had once lived in the Synagogue as ‘disciple’ also testified in court to how T.B. Joshua’ sexual recklessness caused her to run away from the ‘disciples’ quarters; but nothing is heard from the case till today even though the record is still in the High Court, Ikeja, Lagos. No Justice for these fatherless children and their widowed mother, because T.B. Joshua keeps bribing
Judges that are assigned to the case, and he has never for once attended any court proceedings for over 14 years. On my own part after I left Synagogue, since I was privy to the story, there was a journalist that report for Newswatch Magazine, she took much interest in the court proceedings, but the media house she represented refused to publish her story because T.B. Joshua was one of their financier. Then I contacted their former Chairman, Alex Akinyele to wade into the matter. T.B. Joshua, through Mr. Inyang, one Police officer also tried to bribe the journalist, Inyang delivered a bag contained 1Million Naira cash to the doorstep of the journalist, but she turned it down. We are still hoping and praying that this case will see the light of the day for this traumatized family to get Justice at last.

Deception Of The Age is Unmasked in this Book-THE TB JOSHUA I KNOW
Happy weekend to you all in Jesus Name. Glad to write to you again. My prayer is for everyone of us to end our race on the earth well in Jesus’ Name.
God brought the term marriage into our union with Himself and Christ to drive home what He planned for our eternal life to raise our standard, that we may become one with Him and be like Him in nature forever. This means that His original plan is fulfilled. Proverb 19:21 says, “…But the counsel of the Lord will stand.” When we talk about marriage, we must know that marriage has gone beyond the level of casual friendship, wedding ceremonies, and mere interactions with one another. People cannot get the full benefits of relationship when operating outside of marriage. To understand the mystery of marriage is to know the mind of God when He said two SHALL become one flesh according to Genesis 2:24; Matthew 19:5; Mark 10:8.
Two people who does not have the understanding of the mystery of marriage usually ended in destroying friendships, relationships, families, and the communities of people. No matter how much money spent in organizing elaborate weddings, if there is no understanding of this beautiful union, it wouldn’t stand the test of time. It becomes what people endures, not enjoyed. It becomes one party taking advantage of other; and taking the other for granted for personal benefit. It become a ruse.
The genuine purpose of marriage is to marry a soul mate embarking on eternal journey. In this journey of a lifetime on earth, you get to know each other better with the covenant of marriage biding you. If you get married for the sake of having children as some people do, and you later discovered that your spouse has medical issues that may not allow him/her to bear children, trouble would ensue right at that point; and love will turn to hate. If you marry someone because of outward beauty, what if accident happen along the way and take away that pretty facade? We must marry one another for love, conviction and commitment. The Scripture says,
God sees the end from the beginning, and He wants us to see as He sees, but unspiritual man only sees the present, immediate to enjoys only instant gratifications; this is why we regrets. When we go into relationship for selfish reasons, we unfairly put others at disadvantage and awkward position.
This morning I decided to take a long walk on my street to get fresh oxygen into my lungs and to exercise my limbs. The moment I hit the main road out of my street, I noticed a man seated in a shop frontage, the shop was not yet opened because it was still early. As I walk passed him, my spirit wanted me to talk to him about the Gospel of Christ; I always pray for opportunities to witness Christ. So, I approached him with greetings and asked if I could speak to him about Christ. He obliged. I started by telling him of the love of Christ and how he must have Jesus Christ in his life for salvation/eternal purpose.
He said he is a Muslim, but I shared with him one of the Islamic prayers from the first surah in the Quran (Surah al-Fatihah), which says ““Ih dinas-siratal mustaqeem” means we are asking Almighty Allah (SWT) to guide us to the straight path, the main highway which goes towards paradise.” I said this prayer has been answered in Christ in John 14:6, where Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me.” And while I was talking to him, I noticed he was wearing a wrist rope that is decorated with tiny crosses, this is the type people gets from the uniformed churches like Celestial Church of Christ (CCC). I quickly confronted him by asking if he is a Muslim as he claimed, why is he interacting with the God he is not ready to accept for relationship/marriage? why going for consultation as if going to the herbalist to consult idol? As if you prefer a prostitute over a relationship that leads to permanent unity (marriage)? This man does not want relationship with God, he only visited churches to get quick fix, or a tranquilizer for his business, health, or other matter; but Jesus always want to take the relationships further to the next level with anyone that come to Him, so He has ahead of time proved His love by laying down His life. Why would anyone do that if they are not seriously committed to marriage? He already gave ALL He has, it is either He lost ALL or gain ALL.
Now, this man is interacting with God in a relationship that cannot lead to Salvation of his soul. The reason Jesus came is first and foremost Salvation of our souls (John 3:16). Unfortunately, there are many people like the man I met in churches that are only in the Church to patronize God mainly for consultation. Immediately they get their fill, they go their way. Just in the same way we have false/fake pastors, we also have fake brethren in churches, their long years in the church does not matter but quality of your commitment. I believe if you meet people like that man in a church service, you will be deceived to think they are members in the household. Many are in the church for the sake of their hearts desires to be met, this is one of the reasons there is proliferation of false churches and false prophets. This has caused great exodus (large migration) of enchanters into the Church of Jesus Christ, to serve the false brethren and deceive the un-watchful sheep. May the Lord expose them and cause genuine brethren to be set free from under their yokes.
This situation didn’t just started today, there were people that followed Jesus mainly for food, some for healing, and many to hangout with Him, Jesus was not DECEIVED by their coming to church on time, or fakery in departmental activities. He saw beyond the physical, into the hearts of men.
Among many that followed Him, only few people like Peter followed and stay with Him for the things beyond the physical. Just in the same way in bad and deceptive marriage when life can changes grows people apart, something happened in the time of Jesus that caused some of the followers to desert Jesus, at a time He asked His closest allies if they were leaving Him, but Peter answered: 66From that time on many of His disciples turned back and no longer walked with Him. 67SoJesusaskedtheTwelve,“Do youwantto leavetoo?” 68Simon Peter replied, “Lord, to whom would we go? You have the words of eternal life.”
This statement of Peter means, come rain, come sunshine, we have decided to stick with you till the end. In the popular covenant message reads out during weddings, how many adheres to: “In death and in sickness”? Success in Marriage (Relationship) is not automatic, but the more we walk together, live together and weather storms, the good, the bad and the ugly seasons of life together; the stronger our relationships become. Marriage is not for the lily hearted, chicken-hearted, faint-hearted, cowards, and Ignobly people that lacking in courage. So also following the Lord, you will face many storms, Red Sea, wilderness, jungles, dry bones, etc; but the joy of it all is that in all these perils; He is there with us (Ps. 23; Matthew 28:20b; Act 7::56; Joshua 1:9; Jeremiah 20:11). This is the yardstick God expected and why He hated divorce. God knows our frailness, He understand our weakness, yet, He could stick to His covenant with us; but do we?
DANGER OF NOT KNOWING OR LEARNING THE WAY OF YOUR PARTNER
Many church people complains about the God they claimed to follow, I used to until I begin to learn His ways. It is an interesting journey. You can never know more about your partner until you live together and are committed to one another. The danger of being in a relationship where one partner is not committed to the covenant of marriage is very grave. They can use you and dump you, they can break your heart, and disrespect you in the presence of others.
When you follow God for the sakes of your selfish gain, He becomes an unknown God to you. You will be at lose because you may be asking Him for one child, but He may have nations for you. Patronizing an unknown God is dangerous and has great implications and complications; it would be like sleeping with a strange bedfellows. Enough of our interactions with God that cannot lead to Salvation, life will become miserable because:
You cannot decode or interprets His language You will do evil in His sight and discrete His presence You will offer Him Abominable prayers and offerings You will approach Him wrongly You will offer to bribe Him with offerings like the gods of the Amorites Instead of offering Him your body, soul and spirit, you will offer sacrifice that He has provided for Himself.
In Acts 17:23, the religious people in Athens served an unknown God, I wonder how they want to please Him. In Christ we have pleased God, the price is fully paid. This is our peace. If you don’t know how to please God, you will be running from pillar to post to prayer contractors to help you speak to Him and they will deceive you and make your situation worse. When we are in genuine union with Christ, we become one with Him, He feels our pain as the scripture says, Jesus the Great High Priest 14Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to what we profess. 15Forwe do not havea high priestwho is unableto sympathizewithourweaknesses,but we haveone who was temptedinevery waythatwe are,yet was withoutsin.16Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need. “
As the time of Easter draws closer, let us remember what He did on the Cross for mankind and love Him genuinely. If we truly in Him, we will have interest in knowing Him more through His Word and we will tell others of Him.
