The General Superintendent of Christ Apostolic Church Worldwide, Pastor S.O. Oladele has stated that the church in Nigeria has affluence, but no influence.
He noted that so many well known and big personalities come to the church, but the church has no influence on them.
Pastor Oladele who noted this while delivering farewell message at the grand finale of the just concluded CAC 2018 Joint Pastors' Conference on Friday September 21, 2018 in Ikeji-Arakeji Osun state however said that when revival comes, the nation will feel the impact of the church, just like in 1930.
He added further that"we read in history how companies used to come to our church to look for people they can fix to sensitive positions. It is no longer so this day."
The greatest heroes in history according to the General Superintendent are found among those who are discipline, adding that you can be a Joseph in Egypt or Daniel in Babylon.
"If God is going to move in our midst, let us go back to the Bible. We need to go back to the Bible, not backs the Bible. If the preservation of the Bible was left in the careless hands of some of us, we won't have Bible in the world today," he stated.
Pastor Oladele who reemphasized the need for revival in this generation, said before revival can come, there should be heart-cleasing because sin hinders revival and we must embrace passionate evangelism, not commercial evangelism.
He told Pastors at the conference that they must experience brokenness in three ways, namely in their relationship with God, relationship with people and when it comes to relating with the authorities of the Church.
Undiluted truth from a true man of God i am privileged to know through God's Grace.
