He wrote: “My greatest worry is not that fake miracles or prophecies and even fake ministers are infiltrating deeply into the church, my greatest worry is the quality of conversation we usually have when issues like that come up.
Take the present issue as a case study.
Evang Ebuka Obi welcomed a man called Jonathan to his prayer ground.
The man displayed some padlocks and keys and claimed that he locked people’s destinies and cars by locking the padlocks.
Ebuka told him to open the padlocks.
Jonathan obeyed.
Then, Ebuka used it as a prayer point against locked destinies and commanded that the people should shout holy ghost fire many times.
Then, later in the evening, during his live program, he alluded to the same “padlock miracle” and told his viewers that the man was a native doctor and that it was a spiritual padlock that had rusted for a long time and that it got opened only when he touched it.
The next news we got was that the same Jonathan was found in God’s Chosen church confessing that he goes around faking the padlock stories to get money.
The minister in the Chosen church used it as a warning to everyone.
Invariably, everything that happened earlier in Ebuka’s ministry and his subsequent boasting on how it was because he touched the padlock that it opened were all questionable.
But what do we get from his followers?
First follower: That God’s chosen church is envious of Ebuka and angry that he is taking their members.
Second follower: That God’s chosen are the ones that set Ebuka up.
Third follower: That we still love Ebuka, because….zion… We move.
Do you see the problem?
Being envious of Ebuka is not the issue. Whether he was set up, is not the main issue. That you love him, is also not the issue.
The issue here is, how did Ebuka handle the supposed envy or setup? What does it say about him?
The main issue I expected you all to be more concerned with is:
1. Since Ebuka claimed that he sees everything as a prophet…. if it is true that he was set up, can you now accept he did not see the setup and that he allowed Jonathan to deceive him and his members? So, how many of such cases have happened in his ministry?
2. If Jonathan confessed that he made up the padlock story, can we conclude as well that Ebuka lied when he said it was his touch that got the padlock opened, and as such, as far as that story is concerned, Ebuka willfully deceived everyone?
These are the main issues. The issue does not take away your love for him, that is your choice. It does not make anyone asking such questions jealous or envious. It does not mean you will stop going to Ebuka, but this time around, your love is not a blind one.
This will also help you put caution to some of his claims and some of the things you hear when you go to his prayer ground.
When you stand for the truth, you don’t compromise. It even helps the minister not to take his members for granted. Invariably, it reduces or puts a check on fake miracles and prophecies.
But No, you won’t see it this way, because some of you are the real enablers of fake miracles and prophecies.
You think it is about hatred for your “anointed” minister?
That is how you all defended and defended and gave us Bulaba. . .
Being a Christian is not being stupid.”
