Omokri Reacts To Bishop Oyedepo’s ‘Dangerously’ Wealthy Comment
A former presidential aide Reno Omokri has said it is not biblical for pastors to boast about how wealthy they are as money is an illusion.
Omokri’s comment comes on the heels of a statement by the General Overseer of the Living Faith Church Worldwide, Bishop David Oyedepo that he is “dangerously” wealthy.
Bishop Oyedepo had said this during the opening day of Shiloh 2018 programme at the Faith Tabernacle in Ota, Ogun State.
However, Omokri, in a tweet, said it saddens him “when pastors boasts [sic] about how rich they are. Riches are an illusion.
“Once you boast about money, you no longer own the money. The money owns you.
“Let the one who boast about this; that they have the understanding to know me, that i am the Lord.”
It saddens me when pastors boast about how rich they are. Riches are an illusion. Once you boast about money, you no longer own the money. The money owns you. “Let the one who boasts boast about this: that they have the understanding to know me, that I am the LORD”-Jeremiah 9:24
