The Charism Of Post Modernism
By Comr Emorhakpor Ogheneovo Timothy
I usually don’t get involved in social media argument because everybody has become an AUTHORITY in every field .
But I had to make this comment because most of you has taken liberty in the fact that because some people ignore the garbage you post while others catch cruise with it has made you believed you are now Professors know it all .
Allowing some issue surrounding Senior Pastor Odukoya to fester will account for misleading Christian faith as well as a de-service to myself if I stay akimbo as I usually do .

1st ,yours truly, he has the right to carry on from where his Father stopped as most of you had argued but don’t you people think by your arguments you are making caricature of the CHURCH ?
1. Some had argued that God does not call everyone but the ones called by God can call others citing Elijah who was called by God and he called Elisha .
Let me tell you, it’s true Elijah called Elisha but nurtured him through tutelage cum dedicated service and while Elijah was ascending to heaven Elisha held unto the helm of his garment and immediately God’s power was poured on him. This showed Elisha’s cravings to follow God and carry on from where his master stopped .
He was never a away acting movies and making money while Elijah was doing the work of God .
2. Here in Nigeria, before the advent of Christianity we were idol worshippers practicing the African Religion.
When the European came , they preached to us to accept their religion ( Christianity) and whoever accepts this preaching and gives his life to Christ will be encouraged to throw away all those things that were linked with African Spiritism this INCLUDED dada ( Dreadlocks) .
Till this moment, when Living Faith Church aka Winners Chapel receives new converts that carries dreadlocks the Pastor in Charge will tell the new convert to cut off the dreadlocks , as well as discourage the males from wearing earrings.
Catholic Church across the country made it as task to HAND A SIGN POST at the entrance of their gate with the warning against indecent dressing for both males and females .
3. The Bible forbids a Christian to wear tattoo as written in LEVITICUS 19 :28 .
Personally even when I know that nowadays Churches has become enterprise cum family business I don’t have any issue with Senior Pastor Odukoya jnr mounting the Pulpit but he should do the right thing.
He’s now going to be a leader and mentor to a new set of people ( God’s People), therefore let him cut his dreadlocks and clean up his tattoos. Let’s entrench leading by example .
For those spewing what they like because they want to earn Social Media fame let me bring to your notice what my younger brother Elvis Akpobi Majority would always say ” WHAT THE SOCIETY GLORIFIES WILL BE AMPLIFIED )
