Go tell Roman Catholic priest to go get job and work.
Who told you that during Jesus' days there were no prostitution, drugs, violence homosexuality, armed robbing, bribery, rape, lawlessness etc.
The reason why more Ghanaians over there are indulging in such things is because the parents are too busy working for dollars instead of spending time to raise their kids. Why blame the church for the evil we see in our society today? How many hours do you spend in church a week and how many hours do you spend at home watching movies etc on television
? Who told you its the pastors responsibility to raise our children for us? Who told you that people did not give money etc to Jesus and the disciples to be free from financial lack to concentrate on the work of the Kingdom of God? You are among those who think its okay for lawyers, police/military officers, teachers and others to be successful but pastors should live in misery and poverty because they are pastors.
Finally who told you that society should be built on the Bible? Society is not entirely godly and not many people like you are not even studying the Bible to gain knowledge about how the principles of God operates in our world. You simple exposed your hatred for the church and pastors and in so doing you have also exposed your ignorance of God's Word and Will. That's why readers are not interested in your article. if you have problem with your church administration and the way the pastor is running the church go and discuss it with him or the leadership and leave the rest of us in peace because our church is doing great things for us and our families and we respect our pastors and appreciate the good work the Lord is doing through them for us.

Everyone and his/,her gift or calling.Pastors are to devote their time studying the Bible,praying for the congregation,thinking about the spiritual well being of the people etc.
It is hard work 24/7.
So surely the writer is completely out of order.May the Lord forgive him for he does not know what he is writing about!!

2 Corinthians 9:7 says "Each of you must give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver." There is no where in the Bible that Jesus commanded us to pay tithe. In Malachi 2:1, the Bible says that the commandment or warning was for the corrupted high priest who were robbing God. Malachi 3:8 is not for any Christian under Grace, and you are not condemned if you don't tithe. Romans 8:1 says that there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. John 3:17 also said that God send His son to the world to save us, and not to condemn us. Please we are Only required to give free will offering. Read your Bible. Abraham only paid tithe one time, and even that was a free will offering. Tithe was a form of jewish taxation and tradition. Jesus came to redeem us from the law which is not perfect. I am ready to answer any questions. I have a lot of information and quotations to prove that tithe is not for us. Most of these modern day churches use what we call fear based mind control to manipulate the people. They put fear in you that if you don't give your 10 percent of your money to them you are condemn, and once they succeed, they proceed with the manipulation.

Jesus saved a thief on the cross while being crucified. Jesus also condemned the Pharisee who claimed to pay his tithe and prayer everyday and being self righteous. So how can some so called men of God who are actually practicing the same corrupt behavior like the levitical priests call you a thief if you don't give them your hard earned tithe? In CHRIST, our all is for him, and not 10 percent. He always wants us to give as we've purposed/decided in our heart. Jesus actually said in Luke that the widow'S 2 oins was better than the big offerings some of those people gave. Yes we must support the churches, but we are not obligated to pay tithe. Some pastors have the nerve to call people to call others thiefs if they dont give them their thiefs. Hmmmmm. If we are to follow Abraham's example he only tithe once. No where in the new testament were we commanded to tithe. All the new testatment statements about tithe is for historical reference. I agree with Mr. B

This article is factual and spot on. The Pastors are raking in the money. Money from low income, vulnerable members of the congregation, in particular the women. Many are vulnerable. It is daylight robbery. They are also taking advantage of many of the women, such as giving them holy baths and having inappropriate contact with them including sexual intercourse (consensual and non-consensual) under the pretext that the 'Holy Spirit' is visiting them. That is all wrong.

It is too late to isolate yourself and point fingers. You are all part of the problem. To have stoodby all these years with your pen and paper in hand and not say nothing, demonstrates the kind of person you are. This attempt of publicity by your and your masters has failed. For you are no different than them. Or you think somebody don't know abi? negro please
to ESI and Chief J.J:
We do understand what you guys are saying. You've found your comfort zone and it's working for you. great. But please don't tell those of us who has had their mother's fucked by pastor's and broken up their homes to shut up. never. you might be too ignorant to what is going on in church but that doesn't mean nothing is going on. And just because you have a crush on a pastor doesn't make him any more holier than you are. We know female pastors in the community selling pussy when you go over for deliverance. don't get me started. WE ARE ALL CHRISTIANS BUT, we refuse to shut up because it's gone too far. To claim everything is fine and dandy is to turn a blind eye.

I am surprise that some people are criticising the writer. I am a withness to a case of a pastor who shipped the car the church bought for his use to Ghana and reported back to the church that it has been stolen. Another postor refused to use a second-hand car the church bought for his use, reason been that as a pastor he deserves a new car, meanwhile 100 percent of the church members all has used cars. In Toronto we have pastors that issues fraudulent tax receipts and sells them to even non church members for tax purposes, thus stealing from the government. On three occasions pastors were sent from Ghana to help expand an AG church in Toronto and all the three pastors eventually splited the main church one after the other and formed their own churches and further pulled out of the mother church that sent them to Toronto. What of a pastor who abused a married woman in his hotel room. This woman had a marital problem and had gone to seek counselling, and the end result was forced sex. This happen in the Church of pentecost, Dallas , Texas. For the so called elders it is beyond description. Another pastor also could not wait on the Lord in prayer to bring his wife from Ghana to join him in Toronto even though he prays for members that has immigration needs. This pastor used church funds to make "connection" to bring the wife to New Jersey, U.S. and later connected her to Toronto. Do you see how church funds are used by some of these so called pentecostal churches?, while the members have their parents and uncles suffering in Ghana. I blame the members who do not read the bible themselves to understand, with the assistance of the Holy Ghost whom the Lord said will be with us at all times and teach us all things and bring all things to our understanding. If one is lazy to read and study the Holy book one turns to rely on these dubious pastors and believe all what they say. Its sad but remember there will always be sheep in the wolf skin. Thanks be to God that judgement will start from the house of God, beginning with so called pastors, prophets, elders, deacons ect. before the floor members.
Finally my beloved members in the Lord I am requesting you all to read EZEKIEL CPT.34 for your guidance and ask yourselves whether your pastors has ever preached to your church the contend of this chapter.

Bro Kyei, thank you for your insightful post. I live in Toronto and am very well informed of most of the things you've sighted here and many more.
I am questioning Stephen Quaye because he is part of this cabal and protects them with his pen and paper. My question is, why does he care now to write about the issues when all this while, he (Stephen quaye), Ayiku (ghanaian news owner - tribalist fucker), pentecostal elders pastors from piwc to scarborough to ajax, all nations pastors, AG pastors, Christ embassy, to name a few, are all aware of these hideousness but chosed to look away. Why be concerned now? Am wondering what pastor/elder has finally gotten to stephen sister, aunty, wife, daughter's panties for him to finally want to comment.
The members of this churches are doing worse than their elders and pastors. Shit, who do you think is encouraging them to go out and lie, steal, rob and cheat? We know what is going on. They are supposed media men and community men but they choose to align themselves with canadian police agency and other corrupted canadian institutions to spy on their own people for them for funding than to speak of what their colleagues are doing to their own people.
Some of us know pastors personally. some corrupted, some good souls. My only question to this writer is, why be concerned now when all along, he's been on the "etua wo yonko hoa, etua duam" bench along with all the numerous so called community henchmen?
Somebody call stephen quaye and tell him he's been called out by someone who knows so he can come in here and answer me. nkwasias3m.
Massa, he's part of the robinhood family.one by one, they will fall on their own sword.
Stephen, in the first place am not sure your message is clear and sound.
