A lot of members of the popular Deeper Life church
are still stunned over a recent message from it’s
General Overseer Pastor William Folorunsho
Kumuyi.
Pastor Kumuyi while preaching during Sunday’s
Worship Service spoke extensively about ‘The
Word in A Transformed Believer’ where he openly
chastised some sections of the church.
The 73-year-old preacher disclosed that
some church leaders have bastardized the church’s
doctrines.
He reportedly stated that most of the church
doctrines were man made, and he created them,
not that they were from the scriptures – the reason
of which is to set people on the right path are now
being transformed into the things of this world.
Seemingly angered by the situation, he said that
most traditions that were borrowed into the church
are going to be demolished. He went on to go
against the tradition usually observed by the
Church’s marriage committee, which is peculiar to
Deeper Life.
He asked the congregation of the church “Are we
not conforming with the world. Why are you
dressing like of the world?”
He then called on the men to be in charge in their
own home. In his own words, “Women ministry is
our own making, and if we find out that the women
ministry is taking us into the world and we are
helping each other on how to live like the world
and marry like the world and deal with your husband like the world – if it is not helping us and if
it is going to hinder us, we strike if off.”
“Before I leave, I mean before I go, I am going to
remove everything that I set up, that I thought will
help Deeper Life and make us Holy, make us
sanctified, make us deep, make us deeper. And I
see it is not making us deeper, before I leave, I will
uproot all of them and present to you a pure church before I leave.
“What am I afraid of? I can only be afraid of the
judgement of God, therefore whoever responds,
praise the lord, whoever reacts praise the lord. We
are going to stand on the word of God.
“By the grace of God I am not going yet, but, before
I go and I am telling you and all our leaders can
hear. I am not going to hand over Deeper Life to
somebody who will come and destroy everything
we’ve built up for years, because he’s man pleaser,
women pleaser, never! Somebody who will stand on this word and earnestly defend the faith once
delivered unto the saints, that’s what we are going
to do. And the whole church will unite. We are not
looking for graduates, degrees- whoever! Peter did
not have a degree.
“Whoever, will maintain that sanctification, Holiness
without which no man shall see the Lord, Whoever
will have backbone and be willing to stand faithful,
sacrifice everything and bring to church to
obedience to the word of God, that’s the kind of
leader, God will raise up for Deeper Life after I am gone.”
While the sermon lasted, a lot of members especially
women weeped like children.
