Pastor Joseph AZANUI, Founder Restoration Ministry Bambui - Cameroon Tel.: (+237) 671 670 438 |
Pastor Joseph AZANUI, Founder of a Non-denominational Ministry called Restoration Ministry Bambui–Cameroon says if he meets Prophet T.B. Joshua of
Synagogue Church Of All Nations (SCOAN) Nigeria, Prophet Frank of Kingship
Ministry Douala–Cameroon, Pastor Wara Solomon of Ramah Bamenda–Cameroon,
Apostle John Chi of Ark of God Covenant Buea–Cameroon and others, he will tell them
the devil has defeated them concerning anointed water, oil, stickers for
miracles.
He said their selling of these
anointed objects has broken or is against the word of God. The word of God is
very powerful and prophets and Christians turn to neglect it. Now when these
prophets say Power, Power, and are breaking the Power (Word of God) which Power
are they talking about the Pastor questioned. These prophets argue that since
you buy the Bible, and also because they have invested material cost to produce
anointed stickers, oil etc it should be sold. The Pastor said the Word of God
is Spirit. “Can you buy Spirit?” he questioned. Further, he stated
categorically that the Bible says freely you have received and freely give.
Selling anointed stickers, oil, handkerchiefs etc is going against the Word of
God.
The Pastor confirmed there is
healing with anointed water, anointed stickers, anointed oil, etc saying he is
not against healing with such. He approved these anointed objects of healing
quoting from Acts 19: 11–12, John 9:5–7 saying that God heals people in diverse
ways. That he is only condemning the sale of these anointed objects by these
prophets. God through his prophets uses any method to heal, but He God forbids
the collection of money for such healing (see Mathew 10:7–8). Now these
prophets claim that they sell anointed stickers, anointed oil etc because they
want to raise money to advance the ministry or build the house of God. With
regards to this, the Pastor questioned these prophets asking whether the Church
is the Church of man. He said God is the owner of His Church and he God should
be more concerned about the growth of the Church than any other individual. You
can’t build God’s house by breaking his word because the reasons these prophets
advance for their business with anointed water, oil and stickers is that they
want to use the proceeds build God’s house.
God is more interested in the
growth of his Church than those he entrusts to watch over it. To back this,
the Pastor quoted Mathew 6:27–30 “Which of you by taking thoughts can add one
cubit to his stature...” saying the kingdom of God is like a mustard seed. You
plant and go and sleep how it grows you can’t know. Paul planted i.e. Paul
received the message from God and wrote down for us. Our role is just to be
explaining to people (watering) not to border about it growth. He questioned
whether God approves somebody who robs a bank to help build the church or the
poor. The selling of anointed stickers, anointed oil, anointed water etc the
Pastor described as Spiritual Corruption
or Spiritual 419.
The Pastor was conversing with
Coni T. Tawong this afternoon when he contacted him at his local church house
to question him about this spiritual 419 going on nowadays.
