These questions are not about bleaching or greasy hairstyles, they are sincere questions meant to provoke genuine and deep meditation
about the life and style of the Christ Embassy leader and his followers ?
Question #1
1. Is it right for a Man of God or any man for that matter to leave apart from his wife for such a long time considering the position of the scripture below?
1 Corinthians 7:3-5
3. The husband should give to his wife her conjugal
rights (goodwill, kindness, and what is due her as his
wife), and likewise the wife to her husband.
4. For the wife does not have [exclusive] authority and
control over her own body, but the husband [has his
rights]; likewise also the husband does not have
[exclusive] authority and control over his body, but
the wife [has her rights].
Do not refuse and deprive and defraud each other
[of your due marital rights], except perhaps by mutual
consent for a time, so that you may devote yourselves
unhindered to prayer. But afterwards resume marital
relations, lest Satan tempt you [to sin] through your
lack of restraint of sexual desire.
(Amplified Bible)
Question #2
The free dictionary defines Asunder as setting “Apart from each other either in position or in direction”
Does your directives barring husbands and wives from worshiping in the same parish not a clear violation of the scripture below ?
Matthew 19:4-6 Amplified Bible (AMP)
4. He replied, Have you never read that He Who made
them from the beginning made them male and female,
5.And said, For this reason a man shall leave his father
and mother and shall be united firmly (joined
inseparably) to his wife, and the two shall become one
flesh?
6. So they are no longer two, but one flesh. What
therefore God has joined together, let not man put
asunder (separate).
Question #3
Considering the advice in the scripture below ,do you think it is proper to Keep the “whites House ” ladies whose actions have set a wedge between you and your wife ?
Seeing that she is bitter about the disrespectful manner you treat her in the presence of these women !
1 Peter 3 vs 7
“In the same way, you husbands must give honor to your wives. Treat your wife with understanding as you live together. She may be weaker than you are, but she
is your equal partner in God’s gift of new life. Treat her as you should so your prayers will not be hindered.
(NLT)
Question #4
It was God himself who said in Genesis 2:18 that “ It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.”
Do you think it is proper to stay Alone as a man?
Question #5
For the 16 years Rev Anita has stayed alone raising your two lovely kids.
Please how did you expect her to stay warm according to the scripture below !
Ecclesiastes 4:11-12 “Also, if two lie down together, they will keep warm. But how can one keep warm alone? Though one may be
overpowered, two can defend themselves. A
cord of three strands is not quickly broken.”
Question #6
In a Full year calendar your Family does not future in your travel Plans ! So how do we classify you according to the scripture below ?
Seeing that the emotional and matrimonial need of your children and wife have been differed!
1 Timothy 5:8 (King James Version)
“But if any provide not for his own, and specially for
those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and
is worse than an infidel.
