       RCCG: A Lesson To Learn. How Did The Members Vote?

       ---------------------------------------------------------
       As the election continues today. I decided to go to the church
       close to my house. .luckily for me a branch of RCCG was just
       very close. I walked in and the usher, with a smile, welcomed me
       and directed me to a sit In front, the first row to be precise.
       I guess that was my punishment for coming late. .
       As the pastor led prayers of thanksgiving especially for the
       peaceful nature of the elections. .my mind started to wonder
       what he was really thanking God for. Osinbajo, A senior pastor
       of RCCG, may well be the next vice president of Nigeria. And if
       Fayose words are anything to go buy, Osinbanjo could well be the
       next president. So why didn't the APC use the RCCG to woo the
       votes of their members. .and even Christians. I listened to
       Osinbajo a couple of times and he never mentioned his postion as
       a senior pastor.
       I started to do the maths...how many branches does RCCG have
       across Nigeria. . how many members do they have and how many
       voted for 'their pastor' a candidate of the APC?
       In Nigeria where religious leaders, fr Mbaka and co, have used
       the pulpit to canvass for votes, the RCCG refused to use the
       church as a campaign ground..I recall their daddy G.O issue a
       warning about this.
       but then as the pastor continued his sermon which he titled the
       'battle at carmel' he told the story of the invention of the
       aeroplane. .he explanied that a prof had tried and people died
       and then the 'uneducated Wright brothers' got it.
       he also said that the devil would not be allowed to rule Nigeria
       again. .
       I am confused about how the RCCG members voted. ..was it APC or
       PDP... whichever party they voted..they certainly made their
       choice on their own. .no body in church especially their leaders
       influenced their decision even though they have a good reason
       to.
       in Summary, Members vote according to their conscience, and were
       not compared to by any of their Pastor.
       Happy palm sunday.
