BEFORE I DIE I WILL DESTROY CERTAIN...-Kumuyi

Before I die, I will destroy certain Deeper Life doctrines I set up

– Pastor Kumuyi

A lot of members of Deeper Life church are still stunned over a recent message from it’s General Overseer Pastor William Folorunsho Kumuyi. Pastor Kumuyi while preaching during Sunday’s Worship Service spoke extensively about ‘The Word in A Transformed Believer’ where he openly chastised some sections of the church.

 The 73-year-old preacher disclosed that some church leaders have bastardized the church’s doctrines. He reportedly stated that most of the church doctrines were man made, and he created them, not that they were from the scriptures – the reason of which is to set people on the right path are now being transformed into the things of this world. Seemingly angered by the situation, he said that most traditions that were borrowed into the church are going to be demolished. He went on to go against the tradition usually observed by the Church’s marriage committee, which is peculiar to Deeper Life. 

He asked the congregation of the church “Are we not conforming with the world. Why are you dressing like of the world?” He then called on the men to be in charge in their own home. In his own words, “Women ministry is our own making, and if we find out that the women ministry is taking us into the world and we are helping each other on how to leave like the world and marry like the world and deal with your husband like the world – if it is not helping us and if it is going to hinder us, we strike if off.” 

“Before I leave, I mean before I go, I am going to remove everything that I set up, that I thought will help Deeper Life and make us Holy, make us sanctified, make us deep, make us deeper. And I see it is not making us deeper, before I leave, I will uproot all of them and present to you a pure church before I leave. “What am I afraid of? I can only be afraid of the judgement of God, therefore whoever responds, praise the lord, whoever reacts praise the lord. We are going to stand on the word of God. 

“By the grace of God I am not going yet, but, before I go and I am telling you and all our leaders can hear. I am not going to hand over Deeper Life to somebody who will come and destroy everything we’ve built up for years, because he’s man pleaser, women pleaser, never! Somebody who will stand on this word and earnestly defend the faith once delivered unto the saints, that’s what we are going to do. And the whole church will unite. 

We are not looking for graduates, degrees- whoever! Peter did not have a degree. “Whoever, will maintain that sanctification, Holiness without which no man shall see the Lord, Whoever will have backbone and be willing to stand faithful, sacrifice everything and bring to church to obedience to the word of God, that’s the kind of leader, God will raise up for Deeper Life after I am gone.” While the sermon lasted, a lot of members especially women weeped like children.
