Nigerians praise Pastor Adeboye for his ‘mature’ reaction over the issue of ‘rape in the church’ (Video)
General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor E.A Adeboye, recently subtly reacted to the recent rape allegations levelled against the Founder of the Commonwealth of Zion Assembly COZA, Biodun Fatoyinbo, and a few other men of God.
While speaking at the church’s monthly all-night service which held at the Campground along Lagos-Ibadan expressway yesterday July 5th, Pastor Adeboye said.
‘when you find yourself facing useful lust, the bible says Flee which means run as a terror. When you see a sister smiling at you in a funny way, run. Run! Don’t say I am a great man of God and I am highly anointed’.
His message has earned him praises on social media as lots of people, especially on Twitter have taken to the platform to laud him.

I totally concur to every word from Pastor Adeboye on the recent happenings, especially bothering on clerical abuse in the church.
Though I have quite a little liberal mindset on Christianity, there is a great need for conservatism to protect the depths, soul and tenets of our..— Onyibe Emmanuel (@onyibe_emmanuel) July 6, 2019

A lot of words from Pastor Adeboye been compelled to speak in light of recent happenings… one statement that got me pondering 🤔….
WHENEVER A WOMAN ACCUSES YOU, NOBODY WILL LISTEN TO YOU…
Very deep that all I can add is,
NEVER BE IN A POSITION FOR A WOMAN TO ACCUSE YOU

Words of the elders… hmmm
They want to burn you and you decided to rub petrol all over your body and sit next to the fire
They are calling you a thief and here you are playing with a goat's kid
You say you don't want to eat yet you are smelling the meat…
Pastor Adeboye 🔥

Pastor Adeboye is only responsible for what he said not for what you understand.

Pastor Adeboye now made me believe that Wisdom indeed reside with the elders. In his words:
* When you see a woman smiling at you in a 😂koi koi way you better run 🏃🏼🏃🏼
* When a woman accuses you of something, nobody will listen to you.
* Flee from every appearance of evil. pic.twitter.com/7euiwVyjWY— Real Talker (@mrnecs) July 6, 2019
