Bishop David Oyedepo has revealed the type of people you must avoid in church – A Must Read For Believers

Bishop David Oyedepo has revealed that there are some people you must avoid, if you want to move forward in your Christian life. He said this during the Covenant Hour of Prayer meeting today.

He explained that there are social and spiritual members of any church. According to him, the social members just identify with the church, but they show no spiritual fruit in spite of their membership.

“Oh I just like the church. The music is good. The pastor can speak well. But their spiritual life is nothing to write home about,” the Bishop said.

The spiritual members, however, take the word of God seriously, and the instructions they get from God at their church move them to action.

The Bishop went on to read from 2 Timothy 3:1-5, which says;

“But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God— having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people.”

He commented that all the characters listed in this passage are what we see today, and he advised his congregation to avoid people like this.

“40 years ago I spent one whole night praying to God to remove me from anybody who is not moving forward in life,” the Bishop said. “See, it’s only one life I have; I don’t have a spare one.”

Finally he said that people in church who behave this way, can discourage the other members who want to be fervent for the Lord.
