THE SOLE ATTRACTION: SEEING CHRIST ACROSS ALL SCRIPTURE

-
Image
By Akin Ojumu From Genesis to Revelation, the Bible is ultimately a divine autobiography of the Messiah, penned through the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. Every single book is intentional. Together, they form a magnificent, cohesive narrative centered on one Person: Jesus, the Anointed One. Christ is not merely the main attraction of Scripture; He is the sole attraction. Every historical account, poem, prophecy, and miracle is designed with a singular purpose: to point us to Christ, anchor our faith in Him as the Savior, and unfold the grand story of redemption. Luke 24:27 “And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, He interpreted to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning Himself.” John 1:45 “Philip found Nathanael and said to him, “We have found him of whom Moses in the Law and also the Prophets wrote, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.” John 5:39,46 “ You search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; and it is they that bear witness abo...

THERE ARE NO MORE APOSTLES. PERIOD!

-
Image
By Akin Ojumu Anyone who calls himself an apostle today is a phony. It doesn’t take a doctorate degree in Theology or an angelic visitation to know that. For the diligent Bible student who is serious about knowing the truth of God, the qualifications for the office of an Apostle are plain to see. Just pick up your Bible and read.  The Office of the Apostle is unique. Together with the Office of the Prophet, the Apostles laid the foundation of the Christian faith. Common sense tells us that you don’t lay the foundation of a building perpetually. Once the foundation of a house is laid, it is laid. What remains is to build on it.  Ephesians 2:18-20 “For through him we both have access in one Spirit to the Father. So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone.” As soon as the Apostles laid the foundation...

NO! ABRAHAM DID NOT LIVE 375 YEARS

-
Image
By Akin Ojumu During the recently concluded Holy Ghost Service, the Daddy GO of the RCCG Religious Enterprise LTD claimed that Abraham lived for 375 years. It is a remarkable assertion. The only problem? It completely contradicts the Bible. When we open the Scriptures to Genesis 25:7, Abraham’s age at the time of his death is entirely unambiguous. Genesis 25:7 (KJV) “And these are the days of the years of Abraham ’ s life which he lived, an hundred threescore and fifteen years.” Genesis 25:7 (NIV) “Abraham lived a hundred and seventy-five years.” Genesis 25:7 (NLT) “Abraham lived for 175 years.” Some will inevitably argue that this was merely an honest mistake – a simple slip of the tongue. But that defense doesn’t hold up under scrutiny. The RCCG Daddy GO didn’t just misread a number; he went on to build an entire commentary around it, explicitly contrasting Abraham’s fictional 375-year lifespan with that of his son, Isaac. This wasn’t a momentary glitch; it was a glaring symptom of p...

FALSE TEACHERS ARE GOD’S ENEMIES

-
Image
By Akin Ojumu Scripture establishes a clear, unyielding standard for truth: any teaching that contradicts God’s Word lacks spiritual light.  Isaiah 8:20 emphasizes this across various translations, stating that those who speak against the Divine Law and Testimony have “no dawn” in them. Isaiah 8:20 (KJV) “To the Law and to the Testimony: if they speak not according to this Word, it is because there is no light in them.” Isaiah 8:20 (ESV) “To the Teaching and to the Testimony! If they will not speak according to this Word, it is because they have no dawn.” Isaiah 8:20 (NLT) “Look to God’s Instructions and Teachings! People who contradict His Word are completely in the dark.” Isaiah 8:20 (Amplified) “[Direct those people] to the Law and to the Testimony! If their teachings are not in accord with this Word, it is because they have no dawn.” Isaiah 8:20 is crystal clear: if a teaching contradicts God’s Word, there is zero light in it. Stop twisting Scripture to justify a “Daddy GO or “...

WALKING IN THE LIGHT: A COMMENTARY ON ISAIAH 8:20

-
Image
By Akin Ojumu God’s Word is a lamp. It beams its light directly into our lives, providing guidance and clarity even in the deepest darkness. Every step we take and every move we make, Scripture provides a clear path forward, ensuring our spiritual safety and security. Without this divine illumination, we are left to journey through life like a blind man groping in the dark – trapped in total confusion, ignorance, and a desperate search for direction. This is the precise reality of a life devoid of Scripture: we become spiritually blind and entirely overtaken by the dark. Just as physical blindness compromises a person’ s ability to navigate the physical world, spiritual blindness destabilizes our moral and ethical choices. When our spiritual insight is compromised, it fractures every layer of our being, leaving us completely cut off from divine truth.  Whether leader or layperson, anyone who refuses to adhere to God’s Word – or contradicts the foundational doctrines taught by Chris...

IS YOUR JESUS A FIXER OR LORD?

-
Image
By Akin Ojumu Three things draw people to most religious organizations.  1. Promise of supernatural occurrences, extraordinary miracles, deliverances from demonic Goliaths, and victory over all enemies seen & unseen  2. Promise of health, wealth, & success  3. Promise to meet an anointed man of God who has the power to make all of these things come through  Whenever most religious organizations market themselves or run commercials, they typically don’t invite people to come because they are going to learn to deny themselves, or to not love the world or the things of the world. The radio & tv commercials don’t promise to help them overcome the lust of the eyes, lust of the flesh, or the pride of life.  Instead, the religious organizations promise the exact opposite. The radio jingles appeal to the cravings of the human of desire. They tell people to:  “Come get your blessing! Come get your miracles!! Come get your deliverance!!!” What makes this ...

MATTHEW ASHIMOLOWO’S “CRUSADE” OF MAMMON

-
Image
By Akin Ojumu A Christian crusade outreach is a large-scale, organized evangelistic event designed to convert non-believers to Christianity and revitalize the faith of local churchgoers. Christian denominations use the event strictly as a means of an intense, coordinated effort to spread the Gospel message and win souls to God’s kingdom. The primary focus is to preach the Gospel to unregenerate sinners. You may ask, “What exactly is the Gospel message? The true Gospel message is the “Good News” that Christ Jesus died for our sins, was buried, and rose from the dead to reconcile humanity with God. Derived from the Greek word euangelion, it is the foundational message of Christianity. It declares that salvation and eternal life cannot be earned through good deeds but are offered as a free gift of grace to anyone who trusts in Jesus and accepts Him as their Lord and Savior. John 3:16 “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but...

PROOF-TEXTING BREEDS DOCTRINAL FRANKENSTEIN

-
Image
By Akin Ojumu It may surprise you to know that no Bible text stands on its own. To understand a particular passage of Scripture, it must be interpreted within its surrounding context. A text without context is a pretext for a proof text. When proof-texting conceives, it gives birth to a doctrinal Frankenstein of wacky ideas and bizarre practices. Preachers who do this often rip a bunch of Bible verses completely out of their proper context and join them together to make horrendously unbiblical assertions. It’s not enough that we cite a hodgepodge of disparate Bible passages in support of a point of view. Any Bible passage we use to marshal a theological argument must be contextually relevant and applicable to the subject under discussion.  Proof-texting, therefore, is the practice of pulling isolated verses out of their original biblical context to promote a specific theological doctrine, make a theological argument, or push personal belief. A great example that has been used over ...

CHARISMANIA OF THE PENTERASCALS

-
Image
By Akin Ojumu You are not being honest with yourself if, upon watching this clip, you concluded that the insanity on display by the confused and deceived individuals in the video is something that fringe groups do and not what’s practiced in your own denomination.  The drama you see these misled folks performing is the norm, and not the exemption. This is what has become of Christianity in our day. It’s a spiritually terminal disease that has infected every ministry and every religious organization you can find. These people are a symptom of a diseased faith. Look again, and you’ll see yourself in these demon-possessed people. If you’ve ever attended a miracle service, you are in this video. If you’ve ever gone to the monthly unholy Ghost Congress, that’s you waiving the broom in the video. If you’ve ever obeyed when your Daddy GO lied to you that your breakthrough can be found in a magic handkerchief, or in a magic comb, or in a magic chair, or in a magic rod, or in his leftover c...
