No one saw the Pandemic coming but my greatest shock and confusion was the reaction of Preachers I held in very high esteem in Nigeria . One said once you take the vaccine , you become a vampire lusting for blood . I couldn’t believe I ever took him seriously . Many others were a Babel of nonsense
Even in USA , the greatest disappointment I encountered was by preachers I love so much . What they said , did during election, and the pandemic , the fake prophecies …had me questioning God . Not to doubt him but to understand why his church has made themselves a caricature . I have deleted 90% of the preachers I listen to . My greatest teacher now is the Bible and my trust in God I’m wary of trusting the word of any preacher going forward unless I thoroughly examine it in light of the gospel of grace . My people say if you are stung by a bee , if you see a fly you run .
In Acts 17:11 we’re told that the Bereans were nobler (and wiser) than the others, because they searched the Scriptures daily to see if what Paul was saying is true. We should ALL be that way, and we should be VERY wary of any preacher who gets upset if you ask questions – questions like “Where do you find that in Scripture?”
