One day the church was in full session when a man walked into it. From his dressing, it was obvious that he was poor! The Church was filled; the only place that has vacant seats were the two front rolls next to that of the ministers! And so he walked down to take a seat but the ushers told him to go to the back seat.
He went to the back but all the seats were filled!
He then went to the front. But the pastor shouted at him on top of his voice to go back. He was forced to go to the back.
Since there was no seat, he has to stand! But some of the members adjusted themselves together so that he can manage to sit somewhere.
When he had attended the church for three weeks, he told the pastor that he wanted to join one of the groups in the church so that he can be a full member. Now there were five groups in the church. Four of the groups refused to accept him into their midst! The last group which its members usually sit at the back whom some of its members adjusted themselves for him to sit on his first day at the church, welcomed him into their midst!
He soon found out that this group was comprised of the poor. Three months later, the church was celebrating what they called, "THE DAY OF THE POOR". Many charity organizations as well as rich individuals came to the church to give to the poor. As food items were been shared to the poor, he was given two baskets of rice, a tuber of yam and some onions, tomatoes and peppers.
But he rejected the offer and he told them to give them to the poorer people. The pastor was offended by the man's behaviour in refusing the items. The next Sunday as the pastor was preaching, he indirectly referred to the man saying that every church have to be careful about the type of persons they allowed into their church because some poor people are not only poor but also possessed witchcraft!
"They will never get satisfied with whatever things you give to them. They want to take everything so that others will not have", he concluded.
Then came the time of harvest! Just before the harvest, the man brought some tailors to take the measurements of all the people in the group. On the day of the harvest this poor group was dressed up with the best and the most costly wears one can think of. The cost of one of the suits of the men can buy twenty of the pastor's own, so were that of the females!
Everyone in the church, including the pastor was surprised!
Not too long, the pastor found out that this seemly poor man was a billionaire!
The third Sunday, when the man came to church, he was surprised to see the pastor standing at the gate. He personally welcomed him and he told him that he would no longer sit at the back but front seat. But the man refused! All efforts to persuade him to sit at the front failed!
Then the pastor told him that he has to leave his former group and join another group called, "KONGI GROUP".
This was the group of the pastor's family members!
The man also refused! When the pressure was too much, the man stopped coming to the church and he went to another church, called, "YOON". All the people in his group also left the church and followed him down.
Three months later, YOON was organizing an open crusade. Now when the pastor of ST. PEROL heard about it, he also organized his own crusade opposite that of YOON.
On the first day of the crusade, The pastor of ST. PEROL started to sing:
THE BIBLE SAYS:
That the thief cometh but to steal!
The thief cometh but to destroy!
You that stole my members!
You that stole my members!?
No peace for you, the wicked!
No peace for you, the wicked!
You shall die and your church shall burn!
Holy ghost fire, pursue them!
Holy ghost fire, consume them!
When the pastor of YOON heard him, he too fired back in a song as a retaliation!
God spoke through prophet Isaiah!
God spoke through prophet Isaiah!
These people honour me with their lips!
These people honour me with their lips!
Their hearts are far away!
Their hearts are far away!
No private jeep for you!
No private jet for you!
All will now be for me!
All will now be for me!
As it dey pain dem!
It dey sweet usl
As it dey sweet us!
It dey pain dem!
Spirit of Judah Iscariot go away!
You have failed forever more!
