How do you people remember to capture moments with your partners?😭 Like you people will be cuddling, watching TV together and just enjoying each other’s company, and somebody will still remember that there’s a camera to capture it? Teach me please 😭.

Because once me and my baby start cuddling, watching TV, enjoying each other’s company or just spending time together, I don’t even remember my phone exists. 😭 I just want to hold my baby and enjoy the moment. I’m not even thinking about camera or content at that point. It’s safe to say my brain stops working around him 🥹🥹, his brain is enough for the both of us.

Pastor Bolaji’s church members needs to start chewing meat!! They’ve been drinking milk for too long.

[Marina @FafaGoddess]

@AdeyemoDebora15 @Aridunu_jones The point remains he failed to correct and rebuke her. IT’S a sin, period. Instead he listed disadvantages of dating married men

[Lekan Olayinka @lekan_olayinka1]

Sir, what you have addressed is merely the superficial issue.

Firstly, the women echoed what she said not to make you hear better but to show ideological solidarity.

And you signaled your proverbial “washing your hands off” by saying your gospel has been rejected, dusting off your shoes.

By whom? The collective who reverberated the sinful materialistic stance of the lady.

But the deeper issue is this:

You failed to rebuke such mindset and disposition. That’s the problem.

That sequence should have naturally led to a sober moment where you sharply and cuttingly rebuke her and other women present.

But the church laughed it off. And your dusted your shoes.

Why? Jesus appointed you as a shepherd. Why then are you leaving the sheep to walk off the cliff?

Did Paul leave the Galatians to their legalism?

Did Paul leave the Corinthians to their debauchery?

In fact Paul hinted to the Corinthians that he would appear harshly a third time if they didn’t changed.

So, why did you give a soft landing for such ungodly attitude in the church?

That, sir, is the problem. The elder of the church RULES. It’s rulership. You should have legislated biblical position in that situation with the authority of Jesus.

But you didn’t. And there was a time you talked about young people dating married men.

It was so casual. You mentioned it like such an acceptable premise to your point.

Sir, it was baffling oo. And it is troubling. Again, you should have condemned those who date married men.

Those are going to hell. Bible says so. But it was just a casual premise to your soft commentary.

That’s the problem. A lack of ecclesiastical authority over God’s people.

[ADÉÒGO OLÚWÁṢÈYÍ @AdeogOluwaseyi]

This video raises several troubling questions, but I will highlight only three.

First, why would anyone find this funny?

Second, a congregation is a mirror of its pulpit. If the bulk of your flock reasons, speaks, and lives like this, that says something about you, and we should all be worried. You would have to explain why the people you shepherd are nothing like the LORD.

Third, the MoG’s response to that uproar should have been righteous indignation and rebuke. Why was it the opposite?

Phew, all is not well!

[Marina @FafaGoddess]

@IamTobiAkinyemi @Aridunu_jones But Jesus will explicitly tell you the truth right?

[Marina @FafaGoddess]

@MoremiofAfrica @thecreativexx How am I running from accountability?

Was I the one at the pulpit? Show me a video where he told her she was wrong

[Marina @FafaGoddess]

@FavourYusuf1 This is one of the reasons people prefer “modern day churches” because instead of preaching the undiluted truth, they’ll sugarcoat sin and rather motivate you

[Marina @FafaGoddess]

@Aridunu_jones That part didn’t make it to the internet

[Marina @FafaGoddess]

@koredemanuel @Aridunu_jones Let’s start by you quoting verbatim what his response was

[Marina @FafaGoddess]

@Aridunu_jones He didn’t acknowledge that it was a sin. Unless that part did not make it to the internet

[Marina @FafaGoddess]

@Aridunu_jones He didn’t exactly hit the nail on the head and that’s where the issue is. He could have done better but telling her dating a married man will cause marital delays and what not is in other words saying, if not for that it’s fine to date a married man or date for money

@RealJerryEze Yaaayyyyyy🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳

[Spiricoco Twittter @SpiricocoNg]

It should trouble us greatly that the majority of the women in a pastor’s church can cheerfully chorus their materialism and greed.

Firstly, it is a sinful disposition. It is the love of money. But that is not the major problem.

The major problem is that they can do so before their minister.

The Corinthians had the same problem.

Someone was sleeping with his father’s wife, and they were perfectly comfortable with it.

Paul rebuked them for this:

“Instead, you ought to have gone into mourning and have put out of your fellowship the man who has been doing this.” (1 Cor. 5:2)

What happened was that Paul rebuked them so sharply that it brought great sorrow and tears to them:

“Even if I caused you sorrow by my letter, I do not regret it.

Though I did regret it - I see that my letter hurt you, but only for a little while -

yet now I am happy, not because you were made sorry, but because your sorrow led you to repentance.” (2 Cor. 7:8–9)

This, therefore, is a primary responsibility of the minister: to watch over the souls of God’s people so that they may be holy and blameless before God.

Paul describes his ministry in these terms:

“He is the one we proclaim, admonishing and teaching everyone with all wisdom, so that we may present everyone fully mature in Christ.” (Col. 1:28)

He also describes the purpose of his ministry to the Corinthians:

“For I am jealous for you with a godly jealousy. I promised you to one husband, to Christ, so that I might present you as a pure virgin to him.” (2 Cor. 11:2)

In fact, ministers are meant to rebuke the sinful excesses of God’s people.

And when almost the collective mind of a church is shaped by such attitudes, we must ask:

What has the minister been teaching and building the people to look like all these years?

As Paul noted, the life and character of the members should, to a significant degree, reflect what they have learned from their minister.

Hence, he instructed the Philippians:

“Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me:

put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.” (Phil. 4:9)

These four points of contact with the minister:

what the people have learned, received, heard, and seen -

form the basis for understanding the outcome of his ministry among them.

So, what have these people learned, received, heard, or seen in the minister that has formed them into what they are today?

Or what makes the church attract such members, with so little apparent transformation of their sinful dispositions?

Or what makes them remain in such a carnal state, almost collectively, while the minister appears to say, “I leave you to your decision”?

Why would you dust your shoes and walk away?

They are your flock!

It is like a shepherd allowing a herd of sheep to walk off a cliff simply because that is what they want to do.

You are the watcher over their souls, as Heb. says:

“Have confidence in your leaders and submit to their authority, because they keep watch over you as those who must give an account.” (Heb. 13:17)

You have been entrusted with responsibility and authority over them.

Why, then, leave them to their doom?

Why not rebuke them instantly, right there on that stage, as Jesus rebuked Peter, saying, “Get behind me, Satan!” (Matt. 16:23)

That rebuke may have saved Peter's life.

Or like when He told him he had no part in Him if he didn't allow Him wash his feet.

The members left that moment laughing and rejoicing, while Satan had just won a battle over their minds.

But God is alive. And He is just, true, and faithful.

Amen.

Pastor Bolaji had the perfect opportunity to correct these women’s mentality and address the materialistic mindset behind their dating choices.

Instead, he seemingly missed the opportunity to teach them something meaningful by ending the service prematurely, perhaps because he didn’t want to offend his own congregants. 🤦‍♀️

The women were openly talking about relationships driven by financial benefits, yet the congregation responded with cheers of “Men Dey!” 😂💔

Must a woman reach menopause before she understands the consequences of her choices? Must she sleep with countless men in search of an “Odogwu” before she learns that money alone cannot sustain a healthy relationship?

The church should be a place where people are corrected, challenged, and guided toward better values, not just entertained and applauded.

Sometimes, I genuinely wonder what this generation of churches stands for. Is it about transforming lives, or does correction suddenly become difficult when it might offend members or affect the church’s pocket?

Not every moment calls for applause. Sometimes, people need the truth, even when it makes them uncomfortable. 💔🙏
