Joshua Mike-Bamiloye, son of Mike
Bamiloye, founder of popular Mount Zion Faith Drama Ministry, is facing
backlash on social media for saying that ‘Lucifer’, a comedy series, is part of
the devil’s agenda to win souls to hell.
The backlash comes barely days
after Victor Eghan, a Ghanaian man, had warned Christians, who watch ‘Games of
Thrones’, that they are at “risk of going to hell”.
‘Lucifer’ is an American urban
fantasy police procedural comedy-drama television series. It was developed by
Tom Kapinos and premièred on Fox on January 25, 2016.

Joshua had visited his Twitter
account to say that the fourth season of the series, which was released on May
8, literally had the devil in the details.
“There’s a show called Lucifer
Azin the devil o lol, and you, knowing how captivating foreign series can be,
You still watch,” he wrote.
“Now you love the character;
Lucifer, Like Jack Bauer and somehow you think, the devil isn’t winning your
soul over…”

Called LUCIFER
Azin the devil o lol
And you,
Knowing how captivating foreign series can be,
You still watch.
Now you LOVE the character; Lucifer,
Like Jack Bauer.
And somehow you think,
the devil isn’t winning your soul over...
The tweet has since attracted
mixed reactions on social media on Tuesday.
Following the immediate backlash
from Twitter users, Joshua responded to his initial tweet which read: “This
tweet really exposes how bad things have gotten. Satan is far more smarter than
we think. It’s not just sitting around waiting for rapture to happen.
”He’s turning as many hearts as
he can to himself using MOSTLY the media. It’s the easiest most subtle way for
him.

That being said, this isn’t to scare us, but to remind us to stay vigilant, wise, keeping our hearts and spirit on what glorify God. We are more than conquerors in Christ Jesus.— Joshua Mike-Bamiloye (@jay_mikee) May 14, 2019
it’s no joke... it’s not that deep yh?— Joshua Mike-Bamiloye (@jay_mikee) May 14, 2019
How do we give our lives to Christ? By believing and DECLARING right?

“I love Lucifer, nice show”
“Lucifer isn’t bad”
“Lucifer makes sense”

Reacting to the tweet,
@TheFavoredWoman, commented: “Your dad’s poorly researched, badly scripted and
low budget attempt at movies didn’t do Christianity any favors either.
” Y’all basically scarred people
for life.”
Another user, @KhamsObaje,
responded to the tweet saying “Abegi! It’s not that deep. I guess you haven’t
seen a single episode of the show. Depending on what content you desire in TV,
I find it entertaining . Anyone who’s gonna admire and idolise the devil will
do it unaided, not from watching LUCIFER abeg.”
However, @solaadio who favoured
Joshua’s comment on Lucifer said: “Agbara-Nla saved my marriage from being
attacked by an ayamatanga. Please add my name to the list of testimonies of
your father’s ministry. If I didn’t watch that movie in Lagos, i would have
been clueless and naive and destroyed.”.
