TB Joshua: The MAN who cannot be stopped

The General Overseer of the Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN), T.B Joshua says no amount of defamatory or discouraging words can stop what God is set to do in the nation, Ghana. In his quest to find lasting answers to the numerous challenges that confront the body of Christ in this nation he embarked on a familiarity visit to the Ghana branch of the church situated at the Spintex road to ascertain the amount of work on the ground and to look for possible solutions to them. But this has not gone down well with some individuals within the media circles who have little or no knowledge at all about the man of God or are being used by some aggrieved men who are into Kingdom business and feel threatened at the visit of the man of God or have allowed themselves to be used by the devil to stop the move of God.

It is in the wake of this that I have taken the pain upon myself to paint a vivid picture of the situation on the ground and to advice those media men whose intention is to throw dust into the eyes of the public to tread cautiously because no mortal man challenges the almighty God to a fight and comes out victorious. Plus, , I want to point it out that no amount of defamatory statements can stop the hand of God over his people in this nation.
These media men who are bent on painting negative images of Prophet T B Joshua and his ministry trumpeted unfounded allegations that the presence of the Man of God and the Wise men created a serious vehicular traffic on the Spintex road as at Tuesday dawn, workers abandoned their posts to attend miracle sessions, the man of God was affiliated to a certain political party in the country, and then also supposedly guards of the man of God had detained Journalists who wanted to cover the programme.

If one cares to know, the presence of the Man of God was to address the challenges of the numerous Ghanaians who besieged the Headquarters of the Synagogue Church of all Nations in Lagos-Nigeria week in week out to meet him and not to ran a crusade. Hence not a second advert was placed on Emmanuel TV or any other social network.
I would again like to put it on point that the allegations of a huge vehicular traffic on the Spintex road was not as severe as reported but an act of heavy exaggeration because one could drive past the area in 10-15 minutes because of the presence of traffic controllers. The Man of God didn’t advertise his coming and could not have asked workers to absent themselves from work. His visit was to attend to those who were making frantic efforts to see him in Lagos-Nigeria and when people got wind of his coming they began to reach out to relations on phone and that contributed to the numbers that flooded the premises.

On his take on the allegations of political affiliation, Prophet T B Joshua refuted it saying the nature of his job does not permit him to be associated with any political set up both locally and internationally, and that he was for all.
The most diabolic of all the concocted stories on the internet is the one that says supposedly “Body Guards” of the Man of God had detained Journalists from NET 2 TV for taking footage of the gathering, an allegation purported to instigate the media against the man of God and his ministry. The two Journalist colleagues namely Seth Yeboah and Abdul Wahab Giwah who I attended the second day meeting together with made it clear to me that they had gone to cover the event but were met with a huge crowd at the entrance making accessibility impossible. At this point they consulted the church security men who ushered them into the church security post which saved them the trouble of hustling through the crowd. They had access to water and some energy drinks with the promise that their request to take visuals will be forwarded to the church authorities for approval.

Due to the huge human presence, it appeared the concentration of the security men was on crowd control and so each time the two journalists enquired about progress made on their request, one of the security men by name Vincent Aziza told them to give him time since he is yet to receive clarification from the authorities. According to the two journalists from NET 2 TV it was until 1pm when crew from Multi TV were also ushered into the security post to wait for the Green light before any filming could go on but they raised an alarm which suggested we were facing detention, which attracted the presence of the police.
The two journalists from NET 2 TV have however expressed shock and dissatisfaction with the publication that seemed to link them with the detention story and would like to correct that impression The two journalists have stated categorically that they were not kept against their will let alone being detained . They had the option to leave without taking coverage or stay and wait for the approval and they opted for the latter.

In an interview with Rev. Samuel Excellence a representative of the church in Ghana, he revealed that the man of God’s visit to Ghana was to bring relieve to the poor and less privileged Ghanaians who go through strenuous conditions to met him at the Head Quarters weekly. He said some sold their properties, vehicles or even borrowed money to travel to the Head Quarters which most often the man of God ended up refunding their moneys back to. This he said applied to people from Togo, Namibia, Cameroun, South Africa and the World over, so the presence of the man of God was not to create chaos, vehicular traffic, road blocks, exploit Ghanaians or step on the toes of any persons or cause supposedly body guards to manhandle journalist but to reach out to the vulnerable at their doorstep.
Rev. Samuel further indicated that the man of God does not use body guards because he wants to reach out to the unreachable and has always maintained that he is accessible but untouchable. He seized the opportunity to render an apology, on behalf of Prophet T B Joshua to all who might have been offended by his presence in Ghana. .
Before the commencement of the second day’s service one of the wise men by name Daniel addressed the issue of the media saying Emmanuel TV is a Media organization and so when they fight the media then they fight EMMANUEL TV and that SCOAN is a media friendly set up and that it is through the media that most of the negative impressions about the man of God has been corrected.
Prophet T B Joshua arrived later on Wednesday afternoon and addressed all the concerns that had been raised in the media, and also apologized to the media men for any inconveniences that they might have been through saying SCOAN is a media friendly setup and had no basis to stop the media from taking coverage of the event since he knows what he is doing is “light and not darkness”. If you are doing “wuluwulu things” that is when you think of keeping the media away, he said.

DANNY ARKORFUL.

 

Seductress who detremined to deliver T.B. Joshua on her bed

 Chances are great now, if you’re reading this article, that you are one of those benefiting immensely from the priceless Grace of God in the Life of TB Joshua in the form of healing, deliverance, salvation prosperity, divine protection and all of God’s blessings.  While you are at it, you must not ignore the reality of the diverse forms of opposition against the ministry of TB Joshua, which time has revealed to be in all spheres of life. You must have read derogatory stories about the man in the synagogue on newspapers, Magazines, internet, and also come across distasteful rumors alleging different offenses committed by the Man TB Joshua. A friend of mine who usually kept a record of most allegations against TB Joshua he came across confessed to me that he was confused, when I asked him why, he replied that apart from the fact that the allegations do not all agree, they were so much that he wondered if truly a single soul was capable of all this evil and still have such an active and growing ministry. Still the question remains, how can we verify the truth of these stories? Are these reports true or false? If you’re one of those pondering if there could be any truth in the evil reports you’ve read about TB Joshua, it would interest you to know that Negative propaganda on the internet is one of the least forms of attack against TB Joshua; the ministry of SCOAN aside from topping the chart of the most persecuted ministry on earth, also boasts of thousands of documented confession videos of demonically orchestrated seductive attempts at TB Joshua of the synagogue of all nations. Now this you would agree is a more serious form of attack, especially when the seducers are ever willing to testify before a global audience of the processes involved in their seductive assignment on TB Joshua, such that were it to succeed, we would not be reading falsified stories about TB Joshua, but stories of how the ministry of SCOAN no longer exists. Here we present one of many who have come to The SCOAN to seduce the man of God and her confession was recorded. As the wise man prayed for her, the evil spirit dwelling in her manifested and confessed the following:

“My duty is to seduce pastors because my kingdom needed souls. A lot of people go to church without doing what they are supposed to do….I am the queen. She hasn’t finished the assignment I gave her. I am the idol. I destroy men…I get them with the sample of the body. In my eyes are many powers to seduce them; before they know it, they come crawling. I seduced pastors and I loved it. I love seducing them the most – all of those chewing gum boys out there. They would see me one on one in their office. When I talked, they would like my voice and they would just like me. Of course, I get what I want.

how the seducers were exposed

Exposed while on her seductive mission

Those who are truly born again, I don’t go close to them because when I see them, the fire in them scares me so I would just have to go but when I see the simple ones, I love it, those who call themselves men of God but are not practicing the real thing. I love getting those ones to my kingdom. I would just sleep with them and have fun.

The way you people are doing all these things, our kingdom is drying. We need more souls.”

To the glory of God, she received her deliverance in the name of Jesus Christ and power of the Holy Spirit. Free from deceptive and seductive spirits, she confessed the following:

“I am Florence Oluchi Ezibiro. I was initiated as the queen of the coast from my childhood. When I became older, it was time to carry out my mission, which was seduction. I would go to different churches, in the name of going there looking for a solution to my problem. My mission there was to seduce men of God, most especially the proud pastors. Coming to the church, I would see a pastor preaching, “The kingdom of darkness has no power”. I would be provoked. I knew where my power was, in my eyes, breasts, navel and my hips. When I walked into the church, I made sure the pastor looked at me eye to eye. From there, I would initiate him. When everyone was seated in the church listening to the pastor while he preached, I would walk into the church and make sure everyone’s attention would go to me. The way I demonstrated my body and eyes and the way I walked, they would be forced to look at me. When they looked at me, they would be carried away. After service, if I saw that they didn’t notice me, I would request for their prayer, that I was suffering from this or that. I didn’t actually need the prayer I was requesting for. If I couldn’t seduce them in the church, getting to their office was a one-on-one talk. When I talked to them, I would look into their eyes, read and manipulate their minds at that time. I would say that I wanted to be delivered. The pastors would start preaching that I needed to be born again. I would agree that I needed to be born again. Then I would draw up my breasts and they would say that they were in love with me. I looked into their eyes and could manipulate the pastors. Instead of them to deliver me, I would deliver them on my bed. After that, most of them would begin having problems with their ministries. Inside me, I would know that they were already mine.

Imagine if she would have succeeded. What would have happened? She said that she was sent to seduce pastors and after “delivering them on her bed,” their ministries would begin to suffer problems. That was what happened when she fulfilled her mission. She took souls to the evil kingdom by sleeping with the pastor. But when she came to The SCOAN, she was unable to fulfil the mission. Why? She was unable to seduce neither T.B. Joshua, nor any of the FIVE WISE MEN. Why?

Florence Oluchi Ezibiro giving her testimony

Florence Oluchi Ezibiro giving her testimony

Pay attention to her words, “Those who are truly born again, I don’t go close to them because when I see them, the fire in them scares me so I would just have to go but when I see the simple ones, I love it, those who call themselves men of God but are not practicing the real thing. I love getting those ones to my kingdom. I would just sleep with them and have fun.”

She is one of thousands who have come to The SCOAN on a mission to seduce and destroy the man of God. However, after her mission failed, she received her deliverance and is now free from the evil spirit that led her to commit such sinful acts. Many like her have received their freedom. When you meet them now, either in their home churches or home countries, they will tell you the difference deliverance has made in their lives. You can see many of their testimonies on Emmanuel TV and YouTube.  The happy ending in this story is that the very woman above got delivered, yet this poses an even greater question as regards the widespread sexual abuse allegations; what about those who came with same intent and weren’t delivered? Where are they now?  what are they doing?  If a person with such an evil intent of seducing TB Joshua to have sex with her, after imagining and fantasizing about how her sexual affair with TB Joshua would go, on getting to SCOAN, didn’t succeed and left without being delivered, what do you think would stop such a person from gossiping LIES about how she and TB Joshua slept together? Which of the two sins is easier to commit in your opinion? A person bestowed with demonic powers from the pit of hell for the sole purpose of seducing TB Joshua, leaving without deliverance is capable of anything – and of this truth you can be sure, that when those seducers who escaped without deliverance realized that their mission had failed in The SCOAN, they went to the media, cooking up stories of falsehood against the ministry with this instruction from SATAN their master in mind;

 If we cannot destroy him as it now seems; then let us bring his name to utter disrepute to ascribe unto him the abomination we intended for him, that many whom we have afflicted might not go to him and be loosened from our yoke, else we lose at both ends. For look! The whole worlds of our afflicted are going after him as they went unto him whom we hung on a tree.

 Remember the words of the seductress, “Those who are truly born again, I don’t go close to them because when I see them, the fire in them scares me so I would just have to go—“When those women were unable to fulfill their mission in The SCOAN, they left outraged and many went straight to the media to profess what did not occur, writing falsified stories, claiming they were once disciples, professing that they had fulfilled their mission. If they did succeed, why does the ministry of SCOAN still stand and waxes stronger unto this day?

Life as a disciple of TB Joshua – Sandra’s story (part1)

There seems to be much controversy surrounding the life TB Joshua’s disciples are coached to live at the SCOAN. The reasons for the irresponsible inquiry into the personal lives of TB Joshua’s disciples by SCOAN critics are unclear.

Though one would really expect nothing less from fanatical faultfinders of SCOAN, even if it means to intrude on the private life of ex-disciples for any filth they can uncover to hurriedly attribute to their former master as his fruit. As a consequence, it’s not very difficult to come across defamatory articles online featuring stories of supposed ex-disciples alleging diverse ill-treatments and emotional breakdown taking place in the SCOAN premises.

However, there are also growing concerns from TB Joshua supporters that the bulk of these slanderous insider stories online are deceitfully fabricated. In any case, considering the hateful and biased criticism of SCOAN detractors we’ve observed, coupled with  renamed and faceless accusers that leave nothing to track, we would say their concern is very likely. But as much as SCOAN supporters would love to answer favorably to the allegations with that assumption, only firsthand insider experiences would hold their sway against these distasteful rumors. It is on this note that we publish Sandra’s story; a disciple who recently contacted us to publish her story. She tells her story from a unique perspective which we presume you would find in-depth and enlightening.

 Sandra Hall tells Her Story

A couple of people, claiming to have been “disciples of T.B. Joshua” have “come out” regarding their life experiences at The SCOAN. They aim to tell fascinating stories, revealing “what really goes on”. But they haven’t told my story yet.

I was one of them. I stayed at The SCOAN for several years before I was pointed to my calling in life through Prophet T.B. Joshua, the man God used to reshape my life, my character and my destiny. I have a lot to say concerning life as a disciple.

The moment I entered The SCOAN so many years ago, I realized that I was not in an ordinary place. As I witnessed the miracles, I realized that I was not witnessing ordinary events. I noticed many people following the prophet in the services and during the week I was there and learned they were called “disciples”. This too, was not ordinary. The only disciples I was aware of where those that followed Jesus in the Bible. What had I just discovered?

I recalled that in the earthly ministry of Jesus Christ, here were 12, then 72 and many times “great multitudes followed Him”. The same was happening at The SCOAN. As can be expected, in most large public gatherings you have attended, you will find those who believe in the cause with their spirit, soul and body and those who don’t believe at all, those who have come to contribute to the meeting and those who have come to steal from the crowd. Remember Judas sneaking out with the money bags in the small assembly of 12. Such was the case with the disciples of Jesus. Such is the case of those who join the ministry of Prophet T.B. Joshua. Not everyone who joins is perfect and not everyone joins for the salvation of their souls.

At the end of my week’s visit, I had a meeting with the prophet and was ecstatic when he told me that I could stay and become part of his ministry. It felt as if my life had changed completely – but it was just the beginning of the change.

Life at The SCOAN is unlike anything I could have imagined. Every day, I was witnessing miracles first hand. I received lectures from the prophet himself, worked with the ministry’s projects, travelled with them to international crusades and developed a relationship with the prophet, his family and those who were also working with him, people from different countries, with different backgrounds. I met a young man whose family were practicing witch doctors but who wanted to accept Jesus as his Saviour (You can see him on Emmanuel TV). I met people who came for healing, like the girl from a poor family in the US who was healed from a debilitating case of scoliosis, surrendered her life to Christ in response to His love and is still there (You can also see her on Emmanuel TV). I met people who came as if they were on a school field trip, like a secretive technical genius from an affluent family in the UK who came with his youth group and stayed for a time with several of them. I met ladies from South Africa who came separately but lived as if they were twins (You can see them on the Internet). It was amazing. As a disciple, I saw that many at The SCOAN really wanted to be changed and used by God and many simply wanted to get the glory quick, without any change on their part. That was their great mistake.

It is true; there is a lot of hard work going on at The SCOAN. Ask any of the thousands who visit on a weekly basis and they will tell you. There are currently three services a week going on and can last up to 15 hours or more each! I have never seen it done anywhere. Thousands throng to the church to be attended to, interviewed, accommodated, prayed for, listened to, helped. It is the disciples that attend to them. You can imagine the challenges they face.

But let us be sincere. Everyone knows the saying, No pain, no gain. You have to be ready to go through a season of pain to receive a season of gain. Ask every Olympian athlete and they will tell you of the rigorous training and injuries sustained on their way to greatness. Ask every soldier and he will tell you the relentless work and physical and emotional training he underwent to overcome the challenges of wars he would later encounter. Ask every successful businessman and he will tell you the small successes and failures he encountered before his breakthrough. What we are working for is the greatest success of all – the salvation of souls.

Yes, I worked long hours until I was tired many nights. I sometimes postponed my meals so that I could finish an assignment. I fought with fellow disciples over nonsense and over serious problems alike. I cried when I didn’t get what I wanted. I shouted at people who made me angry. I refused to do some assignments. I turned in poor work to my coordinators. I also delivered wonderful messages, kept my room very clean, always showed up for assignments on time and was cheerful with everyone that was “nice” to me. That was in the beginning. That was before I really understood that to be a true disciple of Jesus Christ is not just to change my location (i.e. from living in my country to living in Nigeria) but to change my character (i.e. from lying, stealing, thinking lustfully, behaving rudely to imbibing the character of Jesus Christ). As the prophet used to say, “Anyone can get a Mercedes Benz – you can buy it with money from your salary, you can steal it, you can receive it as a gift – you can have a Mercedes Benz but not everyone can maintain a Mercedes Benz”. To maintain the gift of God, we must have the character of God. This is the ultimate lesson in The SCOAN. This is the primary focus of the discipleship programme. This is the most difficult challenge to overcome.

It was a daily challenge for me. I fought every day, not only with others but mainly with myself. I realized when I went wrong but to prevent myself from misbehaving was my biggest problem. Disciple meetings were my saving grace. Yes, I said it. Disciple meetings saved my life. I received some terrible reports – in response to my sometimes terrible attitude. But listening to the negative impact my bad behavior had on others and most especially the work of God, tore at my conscience. I came to see how destructive negative behavior and thoughts can truly be. Unfortunately, most people cannot change in theory but only in practice. Fortunately, the prophet held regular disciple meetings so that we could discuss those bad habits and make correction. Correction truly makes future possible. I am who, what and where I am today because of the correction I received in those much talked about meetings.

But those who failed to take to that correction went down a long and windy path – a path to destruction. I remember one girl in particular. She was constantly being reported for embarrassing the men in the church. She refused to admit she had a problem. Instead, she would try to lay the blame on the men, claiming they were trying to seduce her, or had stolen something she wanted to retrieve, or were simply “wicked people”. Several times I advised her privately to explain her problem to the prophet and go for deliverance. She flatly refused to believe she had a problem with lust.

There is a saying that goes, “Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned”. This was the case of this girl. As time went on, we realized that her seductive acts had a target – the man of God. When she couldn’t achieve her goal, she became literally wild. Hers is the voice one hears throughout many negative sentiments on the internet. It is the voice of a seductive spirit. Now, if you have watched Emmanuel TV, you would have heard the confessions of thousands of people possessed by evil spirits. Many have confessed that they were sent to destroy men of God, pastors and bishops, those who could cause harm to their kingdom of darkness. Many have described the way they dressed, the way they moved or sat, the attempts they made to get attention from the men of God they were seducing. The similarities are crystal clear. It is those who truly desire to be free from the chains of satan, those who truly desire to have a relationship with Jesus Christ that will be open for their deliverance. Countless women have been set free from this life of seduction and destruction while countless others remain in their bondage and continue to capture others thereby. We, Christians, must be careful lest we are drawn into these seducing lies.

These are just a few short stories of the lives of disciples of T.B. Joshua. I promise to reveal more in the next edition and to let you know exactly what I am doing now, by the grace of God. Until then, I encourage you to continue to examine all things in the light of God’s Word and watch a few of these eye-opening stories:

When looking at the lives of those around the prophet, you will see that some are there to add, some to subtract, some to multiply and some to divide. Those who have become Wise are those who have overcome their human spirit and been set free from every evil spirit that had been operating in their lives. They are shining examples to all on how God can transform our lives.

But not everyone rejoices in the success of others. Many want to get success cheaply – without the necessary sacrifice on their part. Nothing genuine in life comes cheaply. This is a principle of life.

Jesus knew the disciples were not perfect but He called them around Him for a mutual relationship – one in which each

party would benefit. When Peter became a disciple, the kingdom of God benefited by having a superb ambassador and Peter benefited by receiving a new lifestyle, new job and new focus. But it wasn’t a bed of roses. Peter passed through serious trials and tests of faith. His character was questioned and he was rebuked and praised before he developed a Godly character. This is the aim of The SCOAN and Prophet T.B. Joshua. I saw that clearly in the years that I was there.

When I joined the ministry of Prophet T.B. Joshua, I became a disciple. I was excited to be part of such a fellowship, It is true that Large crowds followed Jesus, people lived with Him, they went to the mountain to pray, they went to the seaside to rest, they cooked, went fishing, travelled, received lectures from Jesus personally, attended to huge crowds (remember the feeding of the 5,000), reported each other, received rebuke and praise from their leader (remember Peter, one moment he was called satan for his actions and motive and in one moment, his character was referred to as the rock upon which Christ would build His church), fell asleep at the wrong times (remember the disciples in the Garden of Gethsemane), were rude to visitors (remember Peter chopping of the guard’s ear).

WELL DONE! TB Joshua supporters

Here in this reflective editorial, we would love to give glowing tribute to laudable commenters who stood in stout defense of the truth on tbjoshuawatch. We carefully followed the thread under their (abominably biased) TB Joshua’s Boston Prophecy post and found some insightful comments. We referred to some of their comments as that of “angels” in a twitter post because of the peace it would bring to weak-willed Christians wrestling with doubt about TBJ due to negative propaganda; while also publishing a collection of them in this post. Quite surprisingly, after we exposed the deceitfulness with which tbjoshuawatch one-sidedly criticized TB Joshua’s Boston prophecy in our last post, they not only updated their article with disjointed viewpoints (in a shameless attempt to salvage their reputation), but also blatantly confessed hostile bitterness and anger toward TB Joshua as the motivation behind their writings in their latest post; even by saying:

We’re not writing to mock a self-proclaimed prophet who’s “prophecies” really don’t stand up to scrutiny. No, we’re writing because we’re angry.

 A secret about anger is that it bears witness while on display that it has long consumed the angered. More so, a little measure of anger unjustly directed at another indicates a greater measure we’ve directed at ourselves. These obsessed critics of TB Joshua really need help. Here are the comments of a few sound- minded individuals whom we suppose are first time contributors on the reputed SCOAN critic website after carefully reading their blasphemous article.

I was just wondering if what u r doing here is spiritually correct. I mean u r actually devoting a good portion of ur time to commenting about someone’s life. Is this ur way of carrying ur cross daily? What are u doing with ur life that is building God’s Kingdom? What mighty exploits are u personally doing for God? Any miracles, signs and wonders following u? Can u picture Jesus looking u strait in the eye and saying ‘well done, good and faithful servant’ because u devoted some of ur time to this? ‘A tree shall be known by its fruit’ and issues of life flow from our hearts, wud u say urs is pure. Honestly, r Ur motives for this site pure? This will only make sense if u r not a Christian

By Joan on April 17, 2013 at 10:52 am

Do u have any idea how silly ur review of the Boston prophecy sounds? U sound like a child piecing together any incriminating info about an ex-friend to prove to whoever likes the friend just how bad she is, so they will stop liking her also! Most of ur comments seem so childish and totally subjective! Surely, there has to be more to being a follower of Jesus than policing others to prove their unrighteousness! It’s hard to find any spiritually uplifting value here.

By Joan on April 17, 2013 at 11:28 am

U r not at all coming across as people doing this out of christ-like concern. Instead u comes across as bitter and vengeful. I could quote a few scriptures to build a case against what u r doing, regardless of whether ur stories/comments are true or false. However its possible that u would also respond with a few that confirm ur righteousness. The question is: who are u doing this for? Jesus, other people or yourselves? I won’t speak for Jesus or you, but if its for other people (like me) I’d like to say that ur approach Is so overwhelmingly and singlemindedly negative that I felt like YOU are the ones needing help. If all u say about tb Joshua is true, unfortunately u have somehow seemed to sink lower

You are here busy bring down someone instead of building God ‘s kingdom. Come up with a website where people will be discussing the bible for instance, put up a verse and a topic every week so that people can discuss the topic like bible studying. Then you will be on the right path in building God’s kingdom, because I guarantee you this website won’t make you inherit the kingdom of God instead it will make you go to hell that is if you believe there is a God and he is in control of everything. The more you want to prove that TBJ is fake the more popular he becomes as for me my faith has been lifted by this ministry and am stronger than before in my faith. Just see how many likes you have you are still straggling to even reach 1000 shame! So if you want to go to haven I say it again stop this nonsense do something better for God!

By Carol 2 on April 17, 2013 at 3:08 pm

Mr Terrific am not trying to defend TBJ am defending the work of God. Battered you say oh interesting….when people stop commenting on this site its simply because they have realized that you are a bunch of liars so why waste time on this rubbish?? Actually will do the same but will keep on checking on your progress and see how far this rubbish will take you!! Good luck again if you want to bring TBJ down.The SCOAN where alot of people are finding help you will manage to convince them that he is fake good luck you need it!!! Hopefully by the end of this year you will have 3000 likes at least Pwahahahahaha… so at least you will know you are making progress in convincing people to stopwatching Emmanuel TV or going to the SCOAN. One more thing you will also have alot of people that will came up with stories like former disciples with better and convincing allegations with real names and address, at least 1000 comments from different people who all will say bad things about TBJ. My family visited the SCOAN last year and we were helped by God through the prophet so I have been affected by SCOAN in a good way.

By Carol 2 on April 18, 2013 at 5:40

 And here is the response given to Giles, a member of the disgruntled bunch of ex-disciples; whose comment forms the bulk of the cynical critic opinion in their latest post accusing TB Joshua of being responsible for the tragic Boston marathon explosion.

First Giles TBJ’s prophesies are wrong, now you are blaming him for the dead people. You people you are really pieces of work to say the least. Shame!!!

By Carol 2 on April, 19, 2013 at 11:15

And here is a very brilliant comment to round up this post  by a commenter who admits to being in the past, one of the most skeptical of Joshua’s ministry;

Whenever appraisal is given of T.B. Joshua’s prophetic ministry, I think it must be looked at holistically and within the confines of context. If this prophecy was an isolated incident, your cynical and scathing analysis would be more understandable. However, when you consider the fact that this is one of over 100 documented international prophetic accuracies, oftentimes spoken in a parabolic fashion, it paints a different picture to the one your article is propagating.

Consider every other aspect of Joshua’s ministry – the accurate prophetic words to individuals every service day, the deliverance ofthose under demonic bondage, the simple and practical biblical teaching, and the extensive charitable endeavours. All the various components add up to a picture which simply doesn’t match up with the deception and malevolence you are insinuating in your article.

I confess to being one of the most sceptical of Joshua’s ministry in the past, based on the distasteful rumours going around. However, after watching live services on Emmanuel TV fora period of several months, the testimonies and experiences I witnessed were far too real and relevant to be dismissed simply because they are intellectually challenging to assimilate and break traditional convention.

I encourage those still sceptical (including the TBJ Watch team) to take time out to watch any of The SCOAN live services on Thursday, Saturday or Sunday. If editing is a major SCOANploy, as accused in this article, the live services eliminate such opportunism and provide a platform for an unbiased look at the ministry.

By Eric on April 22, 2013 at 2:49 pm

Well done Joan, carol 2, Florence, Martins and Eric, we at watchtbjoshua encourage you to continue in the light of your conviction and not to surrender to the devious smear campaigns projected by the hater of all good towards TB Joshua through his writers and bloggers at Tbjoshuawatch. May the LORD in his boundless mercies help you to become stronger in your conviction about God and his holy servant, TB Joshua, and may the reward of honoring a prophet be credited to you all. Amen.

“THE BOSTON EXPLOSION” another PRECISE Prophecy by T.B. Joshua

It would be needless trying to convince anyone of the accuracy of TB Joshua’s prophecies at this point in history. Only unreasonable and wicked men, after going through TB Joshua’s record of prophecies would refuse to acknowledge his prophetic gift and foresight. For those in doubt on who is TB Joshua as regards earth-shaking revelations, Check out TB Joshua’s antecedent of prophetic accuracies on the SCOAN official website. It just speaks for itself.

Still,  some people are so stiff-necked and seem unlikely to be convinced even by an appearance of Jesus Christ himself, which is why the latest in the long series of TB Joshua’s confirmed prophecies “the Boston explosion” have come under their cynical critique.

It is noteworthy to mention here the prophecy video itself (above) unarguably speaks volumes of the accuracy of this prophecy to any sane person; but just to chip in some few deceptively left out points in their blasphemous article.

TB Joshua’s critics alleged that TB Joshua stitched together THREE DIFFERENT vague prophecies given at different times, that seem together reasonably accurate, but taken apart are so vague.

The word “DIFFERENT” means DISTINCT, SEPARATE or DISTINCT from another or others – Microsoft® Encarta® 2009. By reason of the above definition, those prophecies were NOT in the least manner different from each other.

A Prophet who speaks as he hears from heaven

TB Joshua; undoubtedly a Prophet who speaks as he hears from heaven

An unbiased scrutiny of the substance of this prophecy would comprehend that TB Joshua made a SINGLE prophecy on SEPARATE counts with APPROPRIATE REFERENCE on each instance to a SINGLE EVENT; “A BOMBING IN THE UNITED STATES”. This is confirmed by his words on the second instance:

“Remember I said you should pray for the nation United States – MONDAY, take your time to pray for the Nation…”.

And on the third instance in which he gave another reminder;

“Remember last week, I repeated it again that the Nation America should pray…” I said it last week, three weeks ago, I said it in December, I have said it up to six times now.

 How could anyone hear this and end up misinterpreting them as TOTALLY DISTINCT prophecies? How does a prediction repeated several times with added specifics and UNDISPUTED CORRELATION become TOTALLY DIFFERENT? My God! This is just a shameless and utterly disgusting attempt to discredit TB Joshua’s prophetic ministry, nothing more, nothing less.

TB Joshua unarguably left no one in doubt in subsequent mentions of this prophecy (after the first instance) that he was bringing forth further details on what he had earlier said. The argument arising to separate this prophecy to totally distinct predictions, void of any correlation, can only be the handiwork of avowed SCOAN critics with an irresistible urge to bring the name “TB Joshua” to disrepute.  Here is their summary in bulleted points of TB Joshua’s Boston prophecy;

Prophecy 1

  1. Pray and fast for America on Monday
  2. There will be flames

Prophecy 2

  1. Something will be roaming around, wandering in a city in the United States (the Lord will subdue)
  2. American Homeland security should be tight, tight, tight.

Prophecy 3

  1. There will be bombings
  2. Homeland security is very important
  3. Large gatherings should be avoided or well secured
  4. There will be massacres

 Note how TB Joshua’s critics deceptively left out the clauses TB Joshua used in correlating his later prophecy restatements to the earlier one. Put those clauses between the three bullet-ed prophecy segments and see with what uncanny precision he spoke of the event he had been shown, you could easily agree that any further detail could easily lead to him being a suspect in the tragedy.

More to their detriment than advantage, theirs is is a supposed expose’ on TB Joshua that has gotten the better of them; no doubt people have begun to see their inherent cynicism and deviousness. To intentionally leave out this truth in their report tells you of the deceitfulness and trickery SCOAN critics use to lure the unsuspecting public from the truth. The truth that God still speaks through TB Joshua and other men of God of his caliber in the world today and the sooner the world starts listening to God’s Holy Servants, the sooner the world will come out of its annihilating crisis.

Life as a disciple of TB Joshua – Soe’s story (part 3)

This is where I’ll conclude this series: “life as a disciple of TB Joshua” ; you may have wondered what it is like training under TB Joshua and even be amongst those already nursing the thought of being present at the SCOAN just to be mentored by him. For one with no insider experience, I admit that it would take a firm resolve to be undeterred by the disturbing rumors you’ve come across, but so did others who have accomplished in SCOAN today encounter similar temptation and overcame.

WISE MAN DANIEL; A success at SCOAN

WISE MAN DANIEL; A success at SCOAN

You need to ask yourself why the stories of failures at SCOAN like disgruntled Beth, Giles, Gareth, Emma and others would influence your decision to go to SCOAN and not the stories of the gratified Wise Man Daniel, Racine, John Chi, Christopher and Harry, whose success is glaring to the world as a testament of the life that awaits those who are ready, sincere and fully trained by TB Joshua.

Betrayal – the reason people avoid mentoring others

Though no good cause undertaken is ever without its risks, this cause TB Joshua has embarked on to train men and women to become like him is of huge risk to him and his ministry that I continually pray for him. And in earnest too because not everyone he’s busy training would come out successful however hard he tries, and then what would become of the failures? This simple equation may give you a signal of what I speak of:

Successful at SCOAN = fulfilled disciples = More “Wise Men” and “Wise Women”
Failures at SCOAN = disgruntled ex-disciples = More “TB Joshua watchers” & “blasphemers”

Now that I think of it, I acutely remember TB Joshua’s words during an interview, where he spoke in-depth saying;

 If we all know what it takes and the risks involved in changing a person – in molding a person into a picture of God’s grace, we will know that we cannot change everyone. That is why people avoid the issue of mentorship. Everybody avoids that area. Founders of big or mega churches place adverts for pastors. Mentoring people is the most dangerous aspect of the ministry. If you mentor ten persons – five may come out successful, while the remaining five will try to destroy you. This is why church founders prefer to go to theology schools to recruit or employ pastors – in mentorship there is a bond between you and your people, if you are looking for people to assist you there are many pastors all over the place, if you go on the internet you’ll see many pastors and bishops looking for jobs. You only need to employ them and pay them their salaries. It is purely the master-employee relationship, I thank God that today we have five wise men who are performing so well that the heavens are rejoicing over them and more are in the making, both men and women.

The Cause Is Worth the Cost

One does not just drift to becoming a great anointed man like TB Joshua; it takes focused action, personal discipline and lots of energy everyday – just as TB Joshua himself still employs daily to maintain his position. But as the sons of Zebedee wanted the right to sit at Jesus’s left and right in his kingdom, but were unwilling to taste of His cup, the lot of these (now- disgruntled) ex-disciples sought divine enablement to carry out Christ mission in SCOAN, but were unwilling to pay the price of self-denial for that divine gift. And TB Joshua I know has no time for those who are not ready amongst his people, hence their eviction.

During all of those disciple meetings I was opportune to attend, on each occasion TB Joshua taught, as I listened sincerely, I saw a man who desired God to use him to develop more people that would do exactly what God is using him to do. He once told us that the power God has given him is transferrable, such that God can use him to anoint as many as possible to do exactly what he is doing – but such people he added must show themselves approved for the anointing by showing the evidence of self-denial and be ready to march with God for the rest of their lives.

 Yet I hardly ever saw this attribute of self-denial amongst the disciples, while I was there as a disciple, it would surprise you to know that there were those who even while training under TB Joshua maintained contact with former boyfriends, girlfriends, (one even went as far as doing this with the prophet’s phone lines) some were involved in watching pornography, face booking, stealing and all other satanic vices, it got so precarious that at a point the prophet had to confiscate all phones used by disciples and it gets even further regimented with more cases of misconduct being reported amongst disciples. A good example is; for a disciple to use the internet then, they had to have a pass signed from TB Joshua (who of course must be told for what purpose the disciple wished to go online), this was done because of the misuse of the church internet for the above vices I mentioned, Yet when such an issue is brought to light by a disgruntled bunch, they only complain of being disconnected from the outside world. And I’m like what? What about what you guys were busy doing on the internet?

Wise Man Christopher: a success at SCOAN

Wise Man Christopher: a success at SCOAN

They may fool people who weren’t there, but not me. At least now everyone is opportune to hear the confessions during the disciple’s deliverances on emmanuel tv, some people have even taken the pains to record them and put them online for people to watch and see for themselves.

So I don’t need to say much on this, but note that these are secret things they do during their stay in SCOAN that they would never have confessed or published on the internet as part of the stories of their involvement with and how they left SCOAN. Everything they say is tailored to paint TB Joshua bad and paint themselves helpless victims leaving out their own imperfections and major failings.

Disciples presently being delivered – Implications

It may seem surprisingly sudden – that disciples are getting delivered by the wise men, with the evil spirits possessing the disciples speaking unanimously of their goal of pushing the disciple they indwell out of the SCOAN (being hampered by the holy fire in SCOAN) – and as part of the demons strategy to get them evicted, it causes them diverse misbehaviors in SCOAN which they also confess during their deliverances. While this may be a not-too comfortable scenario to witness judging from the duration of their involvement with SCOAN, the implications thereof explains what incites the sudden blasphemous behavior of these disgruntled ex-disciples. The same Satan who prompted their misdemeanors in SCOAN leading to their eviction is also prompting their concerted attacks on SCOAN even thereafter. The answer to the question a lot of people have asked and are still asking on why this period for the deliverance of disciples and not from the start of their involvement with SCOAN, in my opinion is because they were not ready. Readiness is inclusive of all the liberated did to be released from the shackles of the power of darkness, it wasn’t too early by the way neither is it too late. If these disgruntled bunches possess even a shred of sincerity left, they would learn what they should know, that they’re no better than the disciples who are presently being delivered and that they themselves need even more of that deliverance if concerted attacks against TB Joshua is what they have now resorted to.

Life as a disciple of TB Joshua – Soe’s story (part 2)

Here’s a continuation of my story during my stay as  a disciple of  TB Joshua (click here for the first part of this installment). let me in this installment directly answer some of the outrageous claims made by a disgruntled Ex-disciple whose so-called “sad story” I came across online with my own personal story during my stay as a disciple in SCOAN.

The care TB Joshua takes of sick disciples.

It’s preposterous for Beth to say being sick in SCOAN is seen as a lack of faith, when TB Joshua has over iterated his scriptural disposition of a man being sick, yet being a friend of God and a candidate of heaven.  I was perhaps whom you would consider one of the least of TB Joshua’s disciples, I became ill precisely one month after I became a disciple, it felt like malaria within me and I wasn’t able to take part actively in the department I belonged, (I worked as one of his secretaries by the way) my colleagues urged me to notify the prophet about my health condition, and not really knowing how to go about it – they assisted me, the moment TB Joshua learned of my health condition he sent for me, when he saw me shivering as I stood, he was furious with my colleagues and reprimanded them for not getting across to him before then and immediately instructed that I be taken to the restaurant for a sumptuous meal with hot beverage, he also assigned a female disciple to make sure I finished my meal, look after me and report my improvement to him, while I was busy with my meal I was surprised he left his office to where I was to personally see me, he touched and felt my cup of tea to make sure it was hot, and asked if I ate well, I nodded in affirmative, he asked me how I was feeling inside me, I explained, and then he laid his hands on me in prayer, and instructed that I took quality rest, I slept and on waking up felt so relieved, strong and energetic that I got to

I witnessed nothing similar or even close to the absurd insinuation that the SCOAN orders people or its disciples not to take medication

I witnessed nothing similar or even close to the absurd insinuation that the SCOAN orders people or its disciples not to take medication.

my department the next day earlier that all my colleagues – I was perfectly healed. In my case, I wasn’t given medication, neither was I ordered not to take, as it stood then I didn’t need it, I was totally healed when TB Joshua prayed for me. I saw nothing similar or even close to the absurd insinuation that the SCOAN orders people or its disciples not to take medication – throughout my stay as a disciple, on the contrary I even witnessed medication being administered to a disciple, whose name I wouldn’t mention here because he’s currently one of the wise men, he fell ill and TB Joshua ordered that he be taken to the medical department right there in the SCOAN premises for treatment, the prophet sent me to look after him in the same way I was looked after, I was there to prepare his bath water and make sure he took his meals at the right time, a dedicated nurse was there attending to him, administering medicines to him at stipulated intervals – and at each interval there was almost a handful of drugs for him to swallow that I pitied him as I handed a glass of water to him to swallow the drugs with. Everyone would do well to disregard these rumors of SCOAN being anti-medicine; it’s nothing more than a blatant lie that’s part of a ploy to discredit SCOAN,

Ex-disciples and a world without TB Joshua

Having said that, in a remark in my last installment, I regarded the complaints of these Ex-disciples as a sign of a deep-seated agitation – I would want to expound on that. If you’re keen to observe, you’ll notice how each time these (now disgruntled) ex-disciples were sent home from SCOAN, they usually made deliberate efforts to return to SCOAN until it seemed they could no longer soldier on with that aspiration. I’ll confirm it with the only section of beth’s words I can relate to –  her statement after being sent home;

I was not granted a letter of invitation (necessary for a Nigerian Visa) from SCOAN to return, this caused me extreme distress”… I was desperate to stay but TB Joshua did not permit it, once again I was sent home….TB Joshua had given up on me…. I was deeply traumatized by the abandonment”.

Three questions can arise from here when her statement is examined (in the bad light she portrayed TB Joshua and SCOAN:) for such a BAD, BAD, BAD, Place as she alleges;

  • Why her extreme distress when she was refused invitation to return, didn’t she have a life before SCOAN?
  • Why was so she desperate to stay in SCOAN? (Note her words: “DESPERATE TO STAY”)
  • Why was she traumatized by the abandonment?

Why let such deep feelings out over a place as” evil” as you describe? No sane person would so DESPERATELY want to stay in an evil place, be EXTREMELY DISTRESSED, when refused invitation to return to an evil place, and ends up TRAUMATIZED when an evil man abandons her (as she so claimed TB Joshua did), the only sense we can make of this is that there’s definitely something she’s not telling which I can very much relate to, I’ve also been a disciple myself, so I know. Do pay serious attention to this; HOWEVER very unlikely IT SEEMS, IT is the crux of the matter.

The emptiness disgruntled Ex-disciples seek to fill

During a disciple’s stay with TB Joshua, the tenderness and unequal love he showers on you feel like a kind of light in your heart… beth described it in this way:

“TB Joshua was kind to me, called me his daughter, and gave me privileges beyond what any other visitor would receive…I accepted the significant amount of cash he gave me.”

Though she gave just a hint there,  I can assure you that they are precious moments you’ll ultimately regard as dearest when TB Joshua showers love on you, and it’s something that when they lose, they begin to frantically chase it as if it’s the “only reality” and they may never get it back – they chase after those cherished memories of their precious time with him with an inner wish to re-experience them, so they keep making impulsive attempts to return there even after they are sent away from there and you would expect them to continue with their lives.

 You only see these outpourings of grievances when they have finally reached a conclusive realization of “Now I’ll never make it back to that place”. Unless this realization is imminent, they wouldn’t grumble in this way but keep pressing to be accommodated by TB Joshua as his disciple.  This is the uncut truth people, believe it – these disgruntled bunch are still chasing after their extraordinary life in SCOAN and spend all their time regretting that they now live in a world without him whom they now return hatred for his friendship. If TB Joshua could so powerfully love those whom he doesn’t physically know when they come to SCOAN for help, he blesses them so richly that they cannot hold back tears, how much more do you think he would love those living with him? I leave that to your imagination.

There is could be no better indication of the emptiness disgruntled ex-disciples feel, than spreading outbursts of grievances

There could be no better sign of the emptiness disgruntled ex-disciples now feel, than the outbursts of grievances

He was a shelter for them, spiritually, materially, physically, financially just name it. But now after leaving they have to look elsewhere for that unconditional love and haven’t found it. They only write about all the wrongs they can imagine and make up about the life in SCOAN online to feel better about themselves being sent out or leaving.  Irrespective of the unverifiable ill-treatment they allege they experienced in SCOAN, people are not stupid enough not to realize that they are all things they once endured calmly as far as they were given the opportunity to stay in SCOAN. A commenter once replied a disgruntled Ex-disciple of TB Joshua by saying:

You did not tell the world u were going to the scoan, so it will be ridiculous when u start telling the world that u left. A prophet can never ever be accepted in his home. We love TB Joshua because he is leading us to christ not to himself.

 In truth, they would have not had much time to rant about it if in reality – they’ve moved on.
