Wetn comsin delibrance and bathing dat man don dey eye dat woman for long time, women be careful with the way you people honor the invitation delibrace frm your pastors and prophet I advice go with your husband or even brother
ReplyDeleteThe stupid pastor is an amateur. He should have prophesised dt the woman would also in addition be visited by a special angel in the bath whom she must not resist for true deliverance. God punish him for making a mockery of the words of the Lord, amen
ReplyDeleteAll evil works shall be judged. Whether he is sentenced or not; he will not escape the judgement of God. Wolves in sheep clothing.
ReplyDeleteTo those seeking deliverance, where in the bible is it written that one must use soap to bath to get deliverance? My people perish for lack of knowledge.
All these new generation churches should Βε̲̣̣̣̥ banned once and for all #kamzy

ReplyDeleteRead and give your life to God, knowing that all, and such things in the bible will surely come to past. Plesse take a decision today and refrain from any of those things that can make you a betrayer of Christ. God will surely bless you as you do so. Amen.
ReplyDeletefool man of God
ReplyDeleteI don't think the woman is saying the truth, infact is not a rape case. If she had soap in her eyes, what happened to her mouth. Or is she saying she also had soap in her mouth that made her not to shout. Ok how does she know it was the pastor since she had soap in her eyez when somebody grabbed her and raped her with soap still in her eyez. To, me I say it was an agreementand they both enjoyed it.
ReplyDeleteNawaoooo..those fake men call demself pastors should stop using God's name in vain or else...God is watching oo
