There is this church right opposite my house called, Ebenezer Miracle Worship Centre. They are noisy as fuck. Church service is on freaking Tuesday, Thursday (main church day) and Sunday.
Anyway, so Thursday is when this dude leaves Kumasi to come to Accra to come and sing, spread the word of God and perform some questionable miracles. Any time he comes he is welcomed by some praises by Prophet 2 and the congregation...Hmm, as if he is God.
I don't know why the residents of the neighborhood even allowed this man to set up his church in a residential area. Hasn't he heard of sound proof buildings? I don't want to hear the lies you tell your congregation, I keep thinking to myself. It's like they all don't want to say anything because he is a 'man of God' (adi3b3n man of God). Drivng around with body guards on his ass, wearing some nkonso suits and shades and to make matters worse goddamn cowboy hats...uuuuurgh. How can anyone take this man serious?
So apparently, no as a matter of fact, this man charges you GHc 50 for buying holy water, GHc 100 for consultation and then when it is time for offering he goes like, ''It is time for the offering, those of you with GHc 100 come. God bless you. Those of you with GHc 50 come God bless you. I am not accepting GHc 2 or GHc 1 today so bring the money you have. Remember it is for God.'' He will do this until he gets to GHc 5. Then he goes like, ''Ok, I am going to accept GHc 2 so if you have it bring it.'' Aaaah, what is the meaning of that? Doesn't his Bible tell a story about some por widow who gives the last money she has and Jesus says something about how blessed she is because she gave all she had and that her blessing was more than that of the guy that gave more and the story goes on...
How is it that people dont see this guy for the rip off that he is? Infact, I think I have a problem with people that go to church during working hours. I have my company and you have been employed there. You expect me not to fire your ass when you are supposed to be present at work and you are not. Are you serious? I fire you then you play the blame game with some innocent family member of yours about how that person is a witch and wants to destroy your life. TRASH! Why don't you sit down and think and see the problem is from you and not some witch.
So, I think this osofo has been paying people to come and act in church so he can fool the people. More outrageous stories.
Fucking money making machine.
I feel your frustration, since I live about three houses from a church with about 3 more churches within a 1 km radius.
ReplyDeleteSad thing is we (atheists and agnostics) can't do anything about it so have to leave it to GOD if he is really out there to sort out this human mess we call organized religion, especially the Ghanaian version of it.
hmmm...TRUE..it is so irritating.
