Kumuyi, at retreat in Lagos, urges obedience to God’s word, leadership

Says we’ll not handover the church to ‘rascals’
The General Superintendent of Deeper Life Bible Church, Pastor William Kumuyi, has called on Christians to exhibit implicit obedience to God’s word so that they could receive abundant blessings.

Kumuyi made the declaration via a satellite broadcast from headquarters of the church in Lagos while teaching on the topic, “Fear Not: The Promise Is Still Good,” during the Faith Clinic session at the ongoing Deeper Life National December Retreat, holding at the Deeper Life Conference Centre (DLCC), which started on Friday, December 21 and to end on December 25, 2018.

The cleric said the church would not condone any form of rascality and rebellion because the Word of God never encourages that and that such act is a strange behaviour capable of taking one to hell fire.

He said: “We are not going to hand the church over to rascals, over to rebellious people that want to scatter everything that is good that the Lord is doing. If you have a neighbour or if you have a friend who is a rascal who just wants to prove that he is not here to hear the Word of God or obey the Word of God, he wants to be rascally in the house of God, talk to them.

“And if you are like that, if you don’t want salvation, you don’t want to go to heaven, we can release you to go back home. And those of us who want to serve the Lord, we are going to remain here.”

Meanwhile, the clergy charged members on the need to be obedient to leadership of the church, stressing that it is the only way to heaven.

“We are going to have a church that is obedient to leadership and every member of the church, every worker of the church will be obedient. Why? This is because that is the only way to heaven. And we will take you to heaven. Thank God you will be there,” he said.
