The founder of Synagogue Church of All Nations turned 50 on June 12th and shunned all forms of celebration put together by his church members, choosing instead to celebrate by communicating with God at the ‘mountains’. He explains why:
“There was a divine message to me to shun all activities on my 50th. I don’t act if I don’t get the call. There’s a need to keep one’s life in prayer. What I need now is more commitment and time with God and not celebrating. I will only celebrate when I’m 60. That is when I will forget about 50. Even the little activity put together by my church members, they know they were not celebrating Mr T.B Joshua rather Prophet T.B Joshua and it is their divine duty to do so.

The Wisest thing a person that fears God doesnt do is ASKING the question WHY when God says something, in his mercy he reveals it and that is the only time you come to know why. What is important is to trust and obey. WHY question is only popular in the world because it makes us feel intelligent and well enlightened which is not the case in the things of God. Instead of being full of …. may God fill you with grace.

The Christian religion and the bible has been STOLEN from other religions that predated it from all around the world. Christianity is a tool for removing spiritual/occult knowledge from the populace so this power can be kept in the hands of a few to manipulate and enslave the masses.

These so-called “religions” are built upon murder, torture, and lies and the only way any lie of this magnitude can survive is to create more and more lies and destroy the peoples who know the truth. Christianity is nothing more than a program. There is nothing religious or spiritual about it. Millions of people suffer depression, hopelessness, and confusion about life. The soul needs light and very few know this or actively practice the power meditation that will literally “save” their own souls. Because of a lack of knowledge and ignorance of the occult, Humanity as a whole has been placed under a powerful spell using occult power and indoctrinated not to question, concerning these three so-called “religions.” This has been reinforced by centuries of Christians being duped into supplying their psychic energy and souls to be channeled into perpetuating this lie, which in the end, will only benefit a select few.
Everything that the Christians accuse the “Devil” of, is really of their own God.

All those criticising Prophet TB Joshua should be ashamed now because all those who even made CDs claiming that he is a satanist, publicly confessed that they did so just to bring him down. Even the Pastors and Bishops who teamed up to scandalise his name confessed that they did so out of hatred. Brethrens, when you are chosen by God, you are chosen indeed and no weapon fashioned against you can prosper. That is Prophet TB Joshua; you will talk and talk until you talk no more, for he is a chosen one to gather and bring back the lost souls to God the Creator Himself. Therefore Prophet TB Joshua is always under God’s protection and anointing.

The Bible’s answer
Jesus’ opposers accused him of making himself equal to God. (John 5:18; 10:30-33) However, Jesus never claimed to be on the same level as Almighty God. He said: “”The Father is greater than I am.””—John 14:28.
Jesus’ early followers did not view him as being equal to Almighty God. For example, the apostle Paul wrote that after Jesus was resurrected, God “”exalted him [Jesus] to a superior position.”” Obviously, Paul did not believe that Jesus was Almighty God. Otherwise, how could God exalt Jesus to a superior position? —Philippians 2:9.
Pastor Chris Musonda
July 10, 2013 at 9:50 am
Many people have criticized Christianity and believers in Jesus Christ as being too narrow-minded because we preach that Jesus Christ is the only way to salvation. They point to the numerous other religions of the world and say, “How can your way be the only way?”
One of the answers to this question is that Jesus himself declared that He was, in fact, God in the flesh.
I and the Father are one. (John 10:30, NASB)
He who has seen Me has seen the Father… (John 14:9b, NASB)
Jesus did not give Christians any other option but to preach that it is only through faith in His sacrificial death on Calvary that we can receive salvation from our sins.
Jesus told him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me.” (John 14: 6, NLT)
Jesus claimed to be God. We have to judge his statements about himself as either true or false.
The great British writer, C. S. Lewis, explained in his well-known book, Mere Christianity, “A man who was merely a man and said the sort of things Jesus said would not be a great moral teacher; he’d either be a lunatic — on a level with a man who says he’s a poached egg — or else he’d be the devil of hell. You must make your choice. Either this man was, and is, the Son of God; or else a madman or something worse.”
“You can shut Him up for a fool, you can spit at Him and kill Him as a demon; or you can fall at His feet and call Him Lord and God. But let us not come up with any patronizing nonsense about His being a great human teacher. He has not left that open to us. He did not intend to.”
So Jesus was either a madman, a liar, a myth, or He really was — and is — the Son of God.
It’s Not About Me
Some people believe that all the religions in the world are basically the same. But that simply is not true. Christians, Jews, and Muslims believe in a personal God who has revealed Himself to mankind. Buddhists and Hindus believe God is impersonal and unknowable. But God cannot be both personal and impersonal — both concepts cannot be correct.
But Christianity is also different from all other religions of the world in one other vitally important concept — the idea that God reached out to man to save him because man was helpless to save himself.
Every other religion in the world is based on man’s efforts to reach God. These world religions teach that man must somehow do righteous deeds or perform religious service in order to become good enough for salvation. In order to be saved a person must pray a certain number of times, in a certain manner, facing a certain direction. Or he must wear a particular type of religious garment. Or he must visit a certain religious shrine or temple. Or he must worship in a particular way.
Some religions require sacrifice and even the infliction of pain upon a believer in order to become holy in the sight of God. Some extreme religions require adherents to beat themselves with whips or rods to show their devotion to God. Some require pilgrims to crawl on their knees a certain distance in prayer in order to earn righteous points with God. Some religions require worship on Friday; others on Saturday; and others on Sunday.
But in all of this, the striving after righteousness is based on the religious activity of the man or woman. In every other religious system besides Christianity, a spiritual scale hangs over the head of the individual, with all of the sins they have committed on one side and all of their righteous deeds on the other. The person never knows whether they have been good enough, or prayed enough, or worked hard enough to earn the righteous points needed to counter their earned sins.
But the Christian Bible teaches that man is a sinner and could never earn salvation by what he or she did.
As the Scriptures say, “No one is righteous—not even one.” (Rom. 3:10, NLT)
For everyone has sinned; we all fall short of God’s glorious standard. (Rom. 3:23, NLT)
We are all infected and impure with sin. When we display our righteous deeds, they are nothing but filthy rags. (Is. 64:6a, NLT)
The apostle Paul makes it clear that salvation is available only through the sacrifice that Jesus Christ made when he carried the sins of the world on the cross.
For God made Christ, who never sinned, to be the offering for our sin, so that we could be made right with God through Christ. (2 Cor. 5:21, NLT)
Jesus never sinned. So He was the only one who could pay the price and carry the sins of all people who ever lived upon himself on the cross. He was the sacrificial lamb who took upon himself the sin of the people.
This salvation comes only through the grace of God toward man, and we can only receive it by faith — not by any deed that we could ever do.
For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast. (Eph. 2:8-9, NKJV)
No matter how good you are; no matter how religious you are; no matter what you do for God, you can never be good enough, or holy enough to earn salvation.
Any plan of salvation that is based on the efforts of man is doomed to failure. But the Bible tells us that salvation has been made available to us because Jesus came to earth and bore our sins on the cross.
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. (John 3:16, NKJV)
All we have to do is believe and receive what Jesus did to bring salvation to us. God has given us the grace to receive salvation; all we have to do is open the door by faith.
Receiving the Free Gift
Jesus Christ declared himself to be the Son of God, the Savior of the World. Now you need to decide how you will respond to his call to “follow me.” He declared that He alone is “the way, the truth, and the life — no one can come to the Father, except through Me.”
Will you take the next step now? Will you trust Him to be your Lord and Savior?
Put your life into His hands now. Do what He asks you to do. His yoke is easy and His burden is light. He asks you to believe in Him. He asks you to honestly confess your sins to Him and to receive His complete forgiveness. He has a special gift that He wants to give you — eternal life.

July 10, 2013 at 4:12 pm
I do not miss the services of Prophet TB Joshua; Thursday’s prayer line and Sunday Services. It is not true that Prophet TB Joshua said that he will celebrate his birthday at 60. He only dedicated his 50th birthday to the needy, praying for the church and all nations. This information is not true and therefore the Prophet does not deserve to be criticised. We should learn to honour our Prophets and tame our tongues because most of our troubles are tongue-troubles.
Blessed
July 10, 2013 at 4:51 pm
And these are the exactly words of Prophet TB Joshua and I quote: “The best way to celebrate this birthday is to be on your knees and thank God for the life of T.B. Joshua. Pray for the Church of God for a strong bond of love. Pray for your nation and the whole world and rededicate yourself to the acts of giving. Be a father to the fatherless and a benefactor to the needy. Raise the standard of living through the little you are going to invest.” He continued to say that, “Those things you have for T.B. Joshua, even what you will spend on a greeting card, put it together and spend it on this commission.”

T B Joshua did what is right.

Check yourself as this is a SIGN that there is something SO WRONG WITH YOU and not with the person you are insulting. I thank the Master of the Universe, the almighty God for the gift of this Prophet, every time I see his face anywhere my heart is filled with peace and joy. May God bless him more and more and make him live long! May God also bless all the people insulting his Prophet and remove “That” which is behind their bitterness.

In Matthew again, Jesus warned us in advance that we shall know them by their fruits. Even if we are in the last days, it doesn’t mean that all the prophets will be false prophets! The bible says there will be generation of true worshipers who shall stand firm until the coming of the Lord. We shall know them by their fruits …. and we have seen the fruits of Prophet TB Joshua and we have seen the fruits of other bishops who are impregnating a chain of women and doing all sorts of evil just inside the church. Jesus said our eyes should be open to see.
