A messenger of the Lord, Peter Ocloo has said people who arrogate the position of pastors to themselves are thieves and robbers who take advantage of the ignorance of their followers, for their personal interest in creating wealth for themselves.
Peter Ocloo who quoted the Bible to buttress his point said, everything is clear in John 10: 8 ?All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but my sheep did not hear them.?
He said one means where such people dupe their followers is through tithing. He therefore admonished people especially followers of Christ to invest the one-tenth (tithe) of their incomes in the poor and the needy within their communities, rather than giving it to the ?so-called men of gods or Pastors’ who don?t deserve it.
Also quoting Ezekiel 34: 2-3; 23, Peter Ocloo, said these pastors rather feed themselves instead of feeding the flocks and this is an abomination before the Lord.
Although he is not against tithing, he said tithes are falling into the wrong hands and in the hands of people who do not deserve it, and do not even pay tax.
According to him, the so-called Pastors are deceivers who are nothing but followers of their master, the devil 2 Corinthians 11:13-15 always polluting the minds and the hearts of the people with diluted messages, which they polish as the truth.
Peter Ocloo who was speaking in an interview indicated that, none of the followers of Christ carried themselves as pastors, because they were cautioned by The Master NOT to call themselves one, but that, they were Messengers (Apostles) to make disciples, by sending the true word of the Lord Revelation 14:3.
He lamented that today, many false prophets have emerged who are “Pastors, Politicians, Lawyers” delivering and teaching the doctrines of their master the Devil (LIAR) rather than delivering the message of GOD-TRUTH. Mark 7:13
As messengers of God, we must deliver the message of God and not deliver the doctrines of a ‘tradition’, religion or religious organization – Acts 5:29. They must do exactly what the sender sends them to do. So anybody who calls himself a pastor and fails to do this – Luke 6:40 is a thief,? he said.
He made mention of messengers like Elisha/Elias (John The Baptist) Matthew 3:11, The Prophet Mohammed Sura 43:61 as people who were then delivering the message of God within the community to everybody irrespective of tribe, colour or language diversity.
He noted that the church should rather be a community center, where the word of God is delivered and taught and stressed that, “This is what The Lord requires we do”. A place where everybody can walk in and be filled with the Word of God and must not bear any name: “That is what the Lord has asked that I tell all religious leaders” and that they shouldn’t be deceived by the fake NWO.
The Soul needs salvation, Ephesians 5:14 and salvation must come to everybody that was why Paul was building Communities, not churches, so to spread the Word of God. But these pastors who are doing the will of the Devil have polluted the minds and hearts of the people Malachi 2:1-3 and 2 Thessalonians 2:9-12?.
