According to reports, Pastor Adeboye said he will not seek vengeance against killers of Abuja preacher, Deaconess Eunice Olawale Elisha.
Forty-two-year old, assistant pastor at the RCCG, Divine Touch parish, Mrs Elisha was hacked to death by hoodlums on June 9 at Gbazango-West area of Kubwa, a satellite town in the Federal Capital Territory while preaching early in the morning.
According to the revered man of God, if Dcns Elisha was actually preaching to win souls for Jesus Christ, it would be unscriptural and anti-Christ to seek to kill the same souls she sought to save.
Adeboye made the declaration on the occasion of the second day of the ongoing Ministers Conference at the Redemption Camp, Kilometer 46, Lagos – Ibadan Expressway on Friday morning ahead the 64 annual convention starting August 1.
“I’m not looking for vengeance. I won’t listen to people asking me to seek vengeance.
“I won’t pursue the case. That’ll be contrary to what she wanted.
“She wanted them saved, not killed.
“What will their killing do for me?,” the 74-year-old cleric queried. Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday

ReplyDeleteThe issue is not asking for vengeance after all God can always do whatever He wants. As a human being when something that's wrong happens you don't keep silent
ReplyDeleteWhat about deploring it in very strong terms and causing appropriate quarters to protect future evangelizers. This is concomitant evangelism.
ReplyDeleteThe man of God has spoken like a father and a true prophet of the most high, he does not need to ask for any vengeance but the govt should allow the law to take its cause, after all it is a crime against the state. we are all waiting for their next line of actions as a deterent to others.
