Taking the vaccine does not reduce your faith Says Iginla

Taking the vaccine does not reduce your faith Says Iginla

 

The General Overseer of Champions Royal Assembly, Prophet Joshua Iginla has led by example by taking the Covid-19 vaccine yesterday.

 

 

This is coming some months after he publicly preached against religious leaders who are asking their members not to take the vaccine. He then promised that He will get vaccinated against Covid-19 and will let his members know when.

 

 

Yesterday, The man of God shared the pictures of him getting vaccinated on his Facebook page and advised Nigerians who felt they want to take it to take it too.

He made it known that there is absolutely nothing wrong with him after taking the vaccine and that those who preach against it are misleading the people.

He stressed that under no condition is he forcing any of his members to get vaccinated but most of the things said about the vaccine are totally false.

Furthermore, He slammed preachers and clergymen who have taken the Covid-19 vaccine secretly yet advising members not to get vaccinated, describing them as misleaders. At least, some of this preachers take their family members abroad for medical treatment and some of them are still on medication, so why kick against members taking medication when their faith is not strong enough for divine healing. Also, he cleared the insinuation that the vaccine is a mark of the beast insisting that a true bible scholar would know that the mark of the beast will only take place after rapture. Aside that, scientifically, for every virus, vaccine has been helpful and that we should shun ignorance and let knowledge be our watchword.

He revealed that taking the vaccine or medication doesn’t reduce your faith or anointing in any way:

GET WISDOM GET UNDERSTANDING LOOSE THEM NOT (PROVERBS 4:5) I GOT VACCINATED.

First and foremost, understand that an unverified negative opinion or ideology can be dangerously misleading.
I Got vaccinated against COVID-19 and it is my choice, under no condition am I mandating members to take it. But to be more real, most of the negative things said about the COVID-19 vaccine are totally erroneous and false. As much as all government parastatals want the safety of their citizens, it is proper to educate them on the need to be vaccinated, rather than force it on them. Encourage people to seek medical care, after all doctors treat but GOD heals.

Brethren if your faith level is still in the growing process, do not die reckless over a situation you could have averted. Take care of your flesh, to enable your spirit man fulfill destiny, your spirit needs your flesh to function on earth.

Supernatural healing from the throne of Grace is real, deliverance and miracles through the undeniable power of God Almighty is still in existence through us by the Holy Spirit.

As a child of God, carefully examine the level of your faith in the most High God, is your faith well grounded and rooted to stand the pressure of affliction? Having come to the consciousness of God’s word, I refuse to perish for the lack of knowledge.

Hebrews 11:1″Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen” Some people’s faith are:Measurable, Growing, Great, Unwavering, Little, Weak, Active etc. Which ever faith level you fall under, do not totally throw away medical science, as much as it has its own limitations, the roots and medical knowledge were created by God Almighty.

See Genesis 1:29 “Then God said, “I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food”.

Do not be deceived and misled, some of the people advising you against the COVID-19 vaccine have secretly taken it. Be accountable for your deeds dear Brethren.

I pray for you, every evil affliction coming your way is averted in Jesus name.

Sahara Reporters Lied! Pastor O.C Benjamin Denies Ever Meeting Apostle Suleman In Viral Video

Sahara Reporters Lied! Pastor O.C. Benjamin Denies Ever Meeting Apostle Suleman In Viral Video

Sahara Reporters Lied! Pastor O.C. Benjamin Denies Ever Meeting Apostle Suleman In Viral Video

 

Pastor O.C Benjamin of the Fulfillers House Church Assemble has described as “lie from the pit of hell” a story published by an online publication, Sahara Reporters, that he was used to stage a miracle by the Omega Fire Ministry’s General Overseer, Apostle Johnson Suleman, to “raise the dead”.

 

Sahara Reporters Lied! Pastor O.C. Benjamin Denies Ever Meeting Apostle Suleman In Viral Video

In a video that has gone viral online, Apostle Benjamin punctured Sahara Reporters’ story declaring that he has never met Apostle Johnson Suleman in person, let alone being used by him to stage a miracle.

 

According to Apostle O.C. Benjamin in the viral video;

 

“God bless you, ladies and gentlemen. Apostle Ozi Benjamin is his name. Lately, my attention was drawn to a news item that has been flying on the internet that I, Apostle Ozi Benjamin said that Prophet (Prof.) Apostle Johnson Suleman gave me a substance with which I injected a dead person, and the dead person came back to life. I want the general public to please neglect such news.

 

I have never met with Apostle Johnson Suleman; Apostle Johnson Suleman does not even know me in person. I only watch him online preaching from a distance. This is propaganda from the pit of hell. Usually, anytime there are criticisms or propaganda against my person on the internet, I don’t respond. I am responding to this latest one because they’re trying to drag me into collision with Apostle Johnson Suleman.

 

This does not have anything to do with Apostle Johnson Suleman. I want everyone to disregard this news. I wonder what kind of lie this is.

 

I had never handled a syringe before, let alone injected someone. I want the general public to please neglect such news. It is a pure lie, balderdash. And all those spreading such a news, one day God’s judgement is going to rest upon you.”

Sahara Weekly Reports That Timothy Omotoso, a Nigerian pastor and leader of the Jesus Dominion International (JDI) church, was arrested in April 2017 on multiple charges, including racketeering, trafficking in persons, rape, and sexual assault. His arrest led to a protracted legal battle that spanned nearly eight years, marked by numerous delays and legal maneuvers. As of April 2, 2025, the Gqeberha High Court is scheduled to deliver judgment in his case.

Background and Arrest

 

Omotoso’s JDI church had major branches in South Africa, Nigeria, and Israel, with its headquarters in Durban, South Africa. He was often referred to as “the man of God” by his followers. The allegations against him and his co-accused, Lusanda Sulani and Zikiswa Sitho, involved recruiting congregants, employees, or individuals under the pretext of offering spiritual benefits or improving their quality of life. These individuals were allegedly transported to various locations, including Durban, Israel, or Nigeria, where they were subjected to strict control and, in some cases, sexual exploitation.

 

 

Legal Proceedings and Delays

 

The trial faced numerous delays since the arrest in April 2017. Omotoso made multiple applications for a mistrial, citing prosecutorial misconduct and other issues. In October 2023, the Gqeberha High Court dismissed an application for discharge brought by Omotoso and his co-accused. However, the court acquitted them of almost half of the charges, reducing the number from 63 to 32. The remaining charges included several counts of rape and sexual assault.

 

 

The delays in the trial led to some witnesses withdrawing from the case, indicating they had moved on with their lives and were not interested in reliving their experiences in court. This contributed to the reduction of charges. Despite these challenges, the prosecution remained committed to finalizing the case and serving justice for the victims.

 

 

Current Status

 

As of April 2, 2025, the Gqeberha High Court is set to deliver judgment in the case against Omotoso and his co-accused. The outcome will determine their legal standing and potential sentencing. Omotoso has been denied bail throughout the trial, while Sulani and Sitho have been out on bail.

 

 

Conclusion

 

The case of Timothy Omotoso has been a complex and lengthy legal battle, highlighting challenges in the judicial process, especially concerning cases involving multiple jurisdictions and sensitive allegations. The scheduled judgment on April 2, 2025, is a significant milestone in this protracted case, potentially bringing closure to the involved parties.
