“We can’t bring our ideas or creativity to how we do God’s work”: Christian influencer speaks
In a chat with Legit.ng’s Olumide Alake, a popular Christian influencer on Twitter @spiricocong reacted to Pastor Tobi Adegboyega’s method.
According to Spiricoco, Pastor Tobi’s method has many implications.
“We cannot bring our ways, or ideas or creativity to how we do kingdom assignments.”
"There's a law set by Jesus, and expanded by the Apostles. And that's how we must win people and advance the kingdom."
"The Jesus dined with sinners arguments is weak. Because Jesus didn't preach the gospel of salvation, to save people from sin. He came to tell people about the kingdom. So He preached the gospel of the kingdom,” he said.
Spiricoco added that if the Apostles were like pastor Tobi, they would have allowed the idolatry of the Roman empire practised in Church.
“They would have allowed drunkenness, witchcraft etc that were prevalent during their time in the name of "winning them over"
“The law is, anyone coming to Jesus must die at the cross to sin, and raise to holiness in Him.
“And the holy spirit must be in them. So, if Tobi isn't doing that, he is a fraud. A sinner. And a messenger of Satan,” he said.
