AMILOADED MEDIA HUB NEWS UPDATE
The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has defended the gifts presented to Bishop David Oyedepo of the Living Faith Church during his 70th birthday.
Oyedepo received a Rolls Royce and N1 billion during the celebration at the church’s headquarters in Ota, Ogun State, sparking criticism from some Nigerians.
In response, Pastor Adeboye stated that clergymen and Christians would be blamed if they died poor, emphasising that it is better to die rich than in poverty.
This was contained in a viral video on Saturday, October 5.
He said: “Someone gave a bishop a car and some people got very upset that how can a bishop be driving a Rolls Royce? As if once you are a bishop you must die of hunger.
“Let me tell you my beloved children, if you die poor they will blame you; they will say after all these days of you serving God this is how you end? If you can’t pay your rent, they will say where is your God?
“If all of a sudden you start riding a Rolls Royce they will attack you, so which of the two do you choose? They are going to attack you anyway, whether you die of poverty or you live in abundance.”
