We are as one, against poverty

As usual, that fine woman Mofe Naira wakes me from my dogmatic slumbers.

Here at the Church of Greener Pastures:

Poverty is not our portion. We cast it out!
Extreme wealth is our portion. We sing it in! Hallelulah!

We are intensely relaxed about members of our flock having extreme wealth. Just so long as we pastors are even more wealthy. If the mighty Jesus were alive today, he would surely have a Lear Jet, for his flock is cast far and wide. I venture to think that he may have put an order in for His Own Airbus 380, so that his Global Ministrations are undertaken with maximum comfort.

What is so wrong with wanting a different coloured Hummer for each day of the week? My God is a rich God, in the mighty name of Jesus. I stand against those infected with poverty. They shall not enter through our divine, gold-plated doors.

Shun poor people to avoid being infected with poverty

My dearest congregation,
It is in pure desperation that I share with you the blessed message of Rev Walter Nnamdi Okeke who has stated beautifully what I have been repeating endlessly in our sermons.

poverty is an infectious disease "and so you should not associate with poor people, lest you should contact the disease."

Of course! Do not be confused by those wealthy people who do not have our faith the reason why is self-evident as Reverend explains

But by the grace of God, we are trying. One thing about working as a cleric overseas is that when you talk about money, the whiteman has money. Talk about everything, they have it. But there is something they don’t have that I believe we have. That is anointing. So, when they see it, they believe because seeing is believing.

Everybody say "ANOINTING!"
So remember dear brothers and sisters. Next time another one of your poor relatives come asking for money to buy food, pay school fees or stave off whatever poverty is ravishing them, just shout
"GET THEE BEHIND ME SATAN!!"
and shut the door quickly before the demons of disease, pestilence and hunger harvest your soul as well.

AMEN!
