• Identify him as ‘gift of God’ to Nations
Two years after his demise, members of The Synagogue Church of all Nation (SCOAN) and his associate, yesterday, celebrated the 60th posthumous birthday of the founder of the Church, Prophet T.B Joshua, saying the late prophet was as a gift of God to all nations.
They eulogised the late Prophet, also known as the ‘Man in the Synagogue’, who died on June 5, 2021, during a church service in his honour at the SCOAN, Ikotun, Lagos.
Pilgrims, who attended the birthday church service, came from the United States of America (USA), United Kingdom, Ireland, Botswana, India, Kenya, Russia, Australia, Ghana, South Africa, Belgium, Togo, Benin Republic, Zimbabwe, Malawi among other countries.
One of the Pilgrims from the United States (US), Kinnack Emmanuel, said he came to celebrate the life of the prophet because T.B. Joshua brought light to his life.
Emmanuel, who is one of the benefactors of Emmanuel TV said: “I received Jesus from Emmanuel TV, the prophet was more than a prophet, he was a teacher, coach, pastor and friend to everybody.
“June 12 is a special day on my calendar because that is the day we celebrate a great gift the Lord gives the world.
“I believe he is here with us and he will always bless us, we miss him so much.”
On his part, a Nigerian preacher, Prophet Joshua Iginla, commended the prophet, saying he was the greatest prophet of all time. According to him, the late Prophet took spiritual bullets for many people and stood his ground.
“We are not only celebrating a man who preaches but a man who has a spirit of love and he is a legend,” Iginla added.
Another cleric, Bishop Steven Ogedengbe, commended the wife of the Prophet for maintaining the church since the departure of her husband.
He also appreciated other prophets in the ministry for moving the church from glory to glory.
He added that Prophet T.B Joshua was a man who can never be forgotten.
