| •Linda Ngaujah who claimed to have died and seen vision before coming back to life |
In the controversial videos being sold all over Nigeria, two women and a boy claimed they died, went to heaven and came back to narrate what they said God showed them.
One of such CDs is that of a Sierra Leonean woman, simply called Sister Linda Ngaujah. Linda said she died and was shown happenings in heaven and hell and that many of the members of a large church on the Lagos-Ibadan expressway are on their way to hell and that the founder of a leading church in Lagos should repent as he allegedly acquired his powers from the devil, saying that a Bishop of another large congregation and his members are not even recognised in heaven.
She added that women who used rubber and wool to plait their hair will go to hell as it is a sin and that the only way for people to be prepared for heaven is to go back to the old Deeper Life Bible Church’s method of dressing.
The video CDs released by Linda is causing serious controversy in the church of God as some women in Deeper Life, who plait rubber hair have vowed never to do so again as they want to get to heaven.
Some female worshippers have even shaved their hair in one Christian Assembly in Ikorodu, saying that they don’t want to have anything to do with attachment as they want to get to heaven.
Another person who claimed to have gone to heaven said she saw the late wife of Kumuyi, Biodun, in heaven and narrated her encounter there.
Other CDs were released by Margaret Amure from Church of God Mission, who also claimed to have gone to heaven and another 10-year old boy from Edo, named Samuel.
Reacting to this development on Sunday during the church service, Pastor Kumuyi warned members of his church not to have anything to do with such CDs as these are the last days where many people would come up with different things to deceive the church of God.
Kumuyi urged members of the church not to waste their money on such CDs, saying that the church should not rely on purported CDs of people who claimed to have gone to heaven to come back to produce CDs to sell to people narrating their encounter.
He referred to Linda’s CD which said people need to dress like Deeper Life to get to heaven, saying that “if you dress like Deeper Life without salvation and sanctification, will you get to heaven? These are the last days.”
The man of God emphasized that dressing like Deeper Life would not take anybody to heaven but that righteousness and holiness of heart are the keys to getting to the kingdom of God and warned members to desist from lwatching such CDs.
Kumuyi further said that one of the people who claimed to have gone to heaven said they saw Mummy Kumuyi in the kingdom of God, saying that he did not need such CD to know that his wife was in heaven and that the word of God has told us the criteria for getting to His kingdom.
According to him, such people were merely deceiving the people, saying that when Apostle Paul was translated to heaven and came back, he did not produce CDs about what he saw in heaven and began to sell them.
“When Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead, Lazarus did not go about telling people that this was what he saw in heaven. We should rest on the word of God to tell us what we need to know about heaven and how to get there. How do you know that they have actually gone to heaven? These are the last days. Don’t waste your money on buying these CDs,” he stated.

ReplyDeleteYour comments are good but nobody has monopoly of call or the Holy Spirit God can use any means for kindling revival to save people from the brink of doom. I listened to Linda and she did not condemn Deeper Life I also listened to Samuel, Samuel is 14 years old and not 10 years and hales from Sapele Delta state and not from Edo. Margret Amure never spoke of dressing like Deeper Life as condition for getting to heaven Jesus told her to warn Christians against worldly dressing that it is both inward and outward holiness that will take someone to heaven. We should be careful of carrying half baked information. Was the experience Angelica of Ecuador had in similar warning of people to prepare for the coming of Jesus which has brought many souls to the kingdom of God a Satanic one too? There has been series of testimonies of people who died, shown heaven and hell and were privileged to come back to warn people of the danger of going to hell. You that said you are a Catholic do you know worshiping of Mary is a sin? Any revelation that is line with the Bible should not be condemned. Lazarus was brought back from heaven without a message because that was not the purpose of his being raised by Jesus after he died and had been buried for four days.
ReplyDeleteU better mind whaT yoU sy olodo.
DeleteIndeed, you shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free.
ReplyDeleteThe bible contained the truth that will get us to heaven.
just moderate your dressing.
Those who divide the house of God in the name of denominations will always continue to experience division for whatever a man sow that he must reap.Those who came up with strange teachings and methods will one day realise that God is one and preaching divisions in the house of God is a sin.The Church of God is One and it is we mortasl in our limited human forms that divides it.Christ never preached disunity in his Body(Body of Christ). This is just the beginning of the fulfilment of Christ words. If its of God it will stand,but if its not it will one day fall...There is nothing hidden under the sun. Who is that person that takes it upon his or herself to say those in hell? Who is he that should fool himself that he or she is already in heaven? Our is to strive and do the good work and follow the saving Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ in faith and leave the rest to God who is God of Justice.God that sees the minds of individuals.Praise God!. Alleluia!.Amen
ReplyDeleteDis nonsense can only be found in xtianity where every Tom, Dick an Harry can claim anything bcos d religion has no guiding principles. Please turn 2 d only true religion of GOD ISLAM.
ReplyDeleteto anonymous 10:06,i think u ar sick upstairs nd need medical attention.u hav no right to speak of other religion b'cos u ar blind nd cannot c d light.
ReplyDeleteIf only u guyz will read d bible u won't b decieved @ every turn. D bible in ECCL states dat d dead knws not anything, while thesselonian tells us clearly dat d dead will b raised at d 2nd coming of christ. So, all of these point to d fact dat going to heaven is not immediate wen we die but only @ d 2nd coming of jesus.
ReplyDeleteEphesians 6:12......Matthew 24:1-51....you have eyes and minds,so read!!!
ReplyDeleteJohn 3:14-15
ReplyDelete14 Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the desert, so the Son of Man must be lifted up, 15 that everyone who believes in him may have eternal life.
NIV
Look up to Jesus Christ and Live.
Accept Him now as your Lord and Personal Savior and follow His commandment. His is the Only way!
God bless You.
i think the islam guy is a funny person,infact a comedian in a drunken state.its unbelivable that people like that can still comment on religion.remove the spec that has been a global terror in your eyes and your fellow brothers before diving into another.
ReplyDeletewhether we be muslims or christians, the only way to be free the damnation of the end time is to be holy. Desist from any and everything evil. May we not be the instrument of own downfall, Amen.
