THROWBACK 2015:
Pastor W.F Kumuyi speaks about the ongoing and shocking changes in DEEPER LIFE BIBLE CHURCH
I’ve been saying some difficult things for some months, for some weeks. Let me add this one. I said before that Marriage Committee is an institution, a creation peculiar to Deeper Life. It is not in the Bible. Church Gist. We raised it up just to help out young people. If we find out that the Marriage Committee is not helping us anymore, it’s hindering us and it is hindering the young people from doing the will of God and the young people fear the Marriage Committee more than they fear God, we will knock off marriage committee.
This is because Marriage Committee is our own making. It is not in the Bible; it is for administration. Church Gist. Praise the Lord! Let me add, Women Ministry is our own making; it is not in the Acts of the Apostles. Anybody that wants to sew a piece of cloth like Dorcas to other people can do that without the Women Ministry. Anybody that wants to learn how to make soap, how to cook, how to do this, you can go to your nearby restaurant or somewhere and learn that. Church Gist. We don’t have to have marriage committee do that. If you want to learn how to dye cloth, we don’t need the Women Ministry in Deeper Life to dye cloth. You can learn that in the suburb, in the localities there.
If we find out that the Women Ministry is taking us into the world and we are interchanging and helping each other to know how live like the world and dress like the world and marry like the world and deal with your husband like the world and we are taking the Church back to the world, the Ministry of Women is our own making. Church Gist. If it is not helping us, if it is going to hinder us, we’ll strike it out.
Take my words, before I leave, I mean before I go, I’m 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’s not making us deeper but shallow, before I leave, I’ll uproot all of them and present to you a pure Church before I leave.
That’s why I am telling you if you want to stay in the Church and you want to live like the word of God is teaching us, you will be what am I afraid of? I’m not afraid of anything. 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. Church Gist. This doctrine of the word: “Be not conformed unto this world” We are going to stand on it until Christ comes and by the grace of God, I am not going yet. I said I’m 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 built up for years because he is a man pleaser, women pleaser, Never! Church Gist. Somebody who will stand on this word and will earnestly defend the faith once delivered unto the Saints. That is what we are going to do.
And the whole Church we unite together and say, “We are not looking for graduates, we are not looking for degrees” Peter didn’t have a degree. Whoever will stand on this word and lead us to salvation, new creature that changes life. Church Gist. Whoever will maintain that sanctification, holiness without which no man shall see the Lord. Whoever will have backbone and stand faithful and be willing to deny himself, sacrifice everything and bring the church to obedience of the word of God, that is the kind of leader God will raise up for Deeper Life after I am gone.
And you by the grace of God, make yourself available and stand on the word. Don’t make yourself a problem to the church. Don’t make yourself a person that we are pushing forward and then you are dragging us back. You will not be like that in Jesus’name.
Let’s rise up and talk to the Lord in prayer.
