The Sons of Violence as Born-Again

Lagos Govt, RCCG Honour Adeboye with Boxing Tourney
Posted By pmnews On March 2, 2011 @ 11:55 am In Boxing,Local,Sports
Lagos State Government and Redeemed Christian Church of God, RCCG are organizing a boxing championship to celebrate the 69th birthday of the General Overseer of the church, Pastor Enoch Adeboye.
The events, which are billed to hold today and tomorrow, will be staged at the Youth Centre Hall of the RCCG Camp, Km.  46-50 Lagos/Ibadan  expressway.
According to the programme of the event made available by the Office of the Senior Special Assistant on Grassroots Sports Development to Governor Babatunde Raji Fashola headed by Prince Olawale Oladunjoye, a sports summit was held today at the RCCG Camp, while tomorrow, a boxing tournament, which will feature seven bouts, five male and 2 female will hold tomorrow.
“We are featuring boxing because Pastor Adeboye was a boxer in his youthful age and because the game is his first love, we decided to honour him with a competition that will make him look back at that time he was boxing,” said Prince Oladunjoye, who said all logistics to ensure a glamorous tournament have been put in place.
The Director of Sports of the RCCG, Pastor Paul Bankole said that the talents discovered in the two days event will be groomed to the fullest, while they would also be supported to succeed in their chosen career.
Comment:
[Honouring the pastor Enoch Adeboye with martial arts, such as boxing, karate, judo or wrestling, marks a complete departure from the purpose of the Almighty whom the pastor claims to serve and to represent.  God destroyed the ante-deluvian world because he saw that the earth was filled with violence – which boxing is! Is the pastor going to be chief guest of honour at this pugilistic event?  Why should RCCG (a religious organization) work in tandem with the Lagos Govt (a political state) to organize this game of Satan? And yet these “redeemed” people are the ones usually claiming to be born again!  Is this pugilistic behaviour a characteristic of the born-again people of the new-age religious movement?  Genethnai anothem is the Greek expression for being born again.  The expression means being “generated from above”.  Without knowing what they claim, these Pentecostal loudmouths say that they are born again.  Jesus said that if the blind lead the blind, they both will fall into the ditch!

My response to the last comment: “The word of God says thou shall not judge.Who made you a judge?  Beware of what you say about anointed men of God. It may be dangerous.”

Do not misconstrue the Biblical statement, "thou shall not judge".  In the correct context, judging here connotes inflicting punitive measures, just like the bearded pastor Emeka King would do, or just like a Joseph Kibwetere of Uganda had done when he set ablaze a thousand congregants, or just like a Jim Jones of The People's Temple in Guyana did when he gave cyanide solution to over 900 congregants to drink and die in November 1978. If you say blankly, "do not judge, ... do not condemn" where then is the corrective preachment?

Jesus judged the Scribes and the Pharisees of his time; and on one occasion he cursed them 7 times by saying: "Woe ...." That judgement did not inflict any injury as the Pharisees would have done by recommending flogging or stoning.  The preaching work is a corrective one; and the person who is not ready to receive the salve that opens the eyes will remain spiritually blind! Such incorrigible people are the true sons and daughters of Belial -- the god of this world who has blocked their minds so that the light of truth will not enter!

I have since April 1996, when I kicked the Church, raised my hands up and swore to a declaration to speak the truth as of Christ and his apostles and without caring whose ox is gored.  And so I do not believe that any self-acclaimed "anointed man of God" is too big to challenge and correct. If a so-called man of God relishes watching men and women at brawl, just like the ancient Roman lords would do when they set the stage for gladiators, then that so-called anointed man of God has derailed and someone should speak up with the aim of bringing him back on track!

I need to field more responses so that I can do a well-researched paper on the thoroughly misconstrued status of being "born again."

Regards,
CFM
