A Christian gospel artiste and a social commentator, Mr Ahide Adum has lent his voice to awaken Christians to the need to submit themselves to authority in the wake of the rise of some who question church authority and the need to fellowship under a pastor. It will be recalled that Ukraine-based pastor, Sunday Adelaja and his protege, OAP Daddy Freeze have been championing a cause on social media about churches brain-washing adherents in Nigeria and that it is not wrong to stop fellowshipping in the church. This is what Mr Adum shared on his facebook wall:
"Somebody MUST pastor, shepherd, lead or nurture you in Christ. If you are not under the covering of the Body of Christ in the earth today, you are not a Christian.
Here are some ways to identify posers!
1. They attack the leadership of the Body of Christ and try to discredit them by pointing out what they consider to be weaknesses. Not mindful that God's criteria is brokenness rather than perfection.
2. They try to pull attention and follower-ship to themselves as the peoples' emancipator rather than to Christ.
3. They prey on the fear, ignorance, mistrust and offense of hurting people.
4. They are confrontational, rude, abusive and uncouth, for which their followers hail them as being bold.
5. They will not submit themselves to any spiritual authority, claiming that it is not necessary or scriptural.
6. They have no commitment to the Body of Christ i.e. believers in Jesus Christ, and see them as stupid and gullible.
7. Their arguments reflect their lives and lifestyles; sight-based, graceless, faithless and self- centered.
8. Their follower-ship feed on the hype they create and lack the character to research, question or reason for themselves.
9. They love the lime light and will do anything to stay in it, including castigating popular personalities for cheap publicity but have never produced anything original or worthy of mention.
10. They are opportunistic, short-lived and would not have added anything to society, neither from their inferior perspective nor their memory in time to come."
