PERSONAL BELIEFS

What is your preferred translation of the bible? And why?

It’s not cast on concrete, but I often defer to King James and The Message Translation. I also freely refer to every available translation.

What do you believe to be the greatest challenge of the church in the end time?

Worldliness. The church of today wants to think like the world, dress like the world, behave like the world, reason like the world, etc.

What role do you see the Nigerian Church playing in the end- time?

I see the church giving direction to the nation. I see the church becoming the eye of the nation.

Any Words of advice for young pastors?

Be consistent, be a child of God first, be brave, hear from God, let your motivation be to bring God pleasure. Rewards will come from God, but don’t make it the focus of your ministry. gw
