The General Superintendent of the Deeper
Christian Life Ministry, Pastor William
Kumuyi, has refused to recognise the
controversial videos of a ‘prophetess’ and
others who claimed to have died, gone to
heaven and came back to narrate their
extra-terrestrial experience.
In the controversial videos being sold all over
Nigeria, two women and a boy claimed they
died, went to heaven and came back to
narrate what they said God showed them.
One of such CDs is that of a Sierra Leonean
woman, simply called Sister Linda Ngaujah.
Linda said she died and was shown
happenings in heaven and hell and that many
of the members of a large church on the
Lagos-Ibadan expressway are on their way to
hell and that the founder of a leading church
in Lagos should repent as he allegedly
acquired his powers from the devil, saying
that a Bishop of another large congregation
and his members are not even recognised in
heaven.
The ‘prophetess’ added that women who used
rubber and wool to plait their hair will go to
hell as it is a sin and that the only way for
people to be prepared for heaven is to go
back to the old Deeper Life Bible Church’s
method of dressing.
The video CDs released by Linda is causing
serious controversy in the church of God as
some women in Deeper Life, who plait rubber
hair have vowed never to do so again as they
want to get to heaven.
Some female worshippers have even shaved
their hair in one Christian Assembly in
Ikorodu, saying that they don’t want to have
anything to do with attachment as they want
to get to heaven.
Another person who claimed to have gone to
heaven said she saw the late wife of Kumuyi,
Biodun, in heaven and narrated her
encounter there.
Other CDs were released by Margaret Amure
from Church of God Mission, who also
claimed to have gone to heaven and another
10-year old boy from Edo, named Samuel.
P.M.NEWS Nigeria reports that on Sunday
during the church service, Pastor
Kumuyi reacted to this development warned
members of his church not to have anything
to do with such CDs as these are the last days
where many people would come up with
different things to deceive the church of God.
Pastor Kumuyi urged members of the church
not to waste their money on such CDs, saying
that the church should not rely on purported
CDs of people who claimed to have gone to
heaven to come back to produce CDs to sell
to people narrating their encounter.
He referred to Linda’s CD which said people
need to dress like Deeper Life to get to
heaven, saying that “if you dress like Deeper
Life without salvation and sanctification, will
you get to heaven? These are the last days.”
The man of God emphasized that dressing like
Deeper Life would not take anybody to
heaven but that righteousness and holiness of
heart are the keys to getting to the kingdom
of God and warned members to desist from
watching such CDs.
Pastor Kumuyi further said that one of the
people who claimed to have gone to heaven
said they saw Mummy Kumuyi in the kingdom
of God, saying that he did not need such CD
to know that his wife was in heaven and that
the word of God has told us the criteria for
getting to His kingdom.
According to him, such people were merely
deceiving the people, saying that when
Apostle Paul was translated to heaven and
came back, he did not produce CDs about
what he saw in heaven and began to sell
them.
“When Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead,
Lazarus did not go about telling people that
this was what he saw in heaven. We should
rest on the word of God to tell us what we
need to know about heaven and how to get
there. How do you know that they have
actually gone to heaven? These are the last
days. Don’t waste your money on buying
these CDs,” he stated.
