Clergyman, Chris Okotie has accused the late founder of Synagogue Church of All Nation, SCOAN, Temitope Joshua popularly known as TB Joshua, of being a magician who pretended to be a servant of God.
It can be recalled that TB Joshua died on June 6 and was laid to rest within his church premises on July 7 as demanded by his wife and other family members.
His burial, which gained huge media coverage, was shunned by top Nigerian General Overseers which stirred controversy on social media at the time.
Shortly after his death, it can also recalled that Rev Chris Okotie described him as the “Wizard of Endor” who assumed the title of “Emmanuel”.
In a new development, Okotie has released a video alleging that the late clergyman was a false prophet, a sorcerer and a magician, who pretended to be “Jesus Christ”, the saviour of mankind.
He said in the video, “What is the truth about TB Joshua? Who was he? Was he a product of Christianity? Or a practitioner of shamanism? Was he a servant of the Lord Jesus? Or some itinerant religious quack?” Okotie asked.
“Was he a true prophet, who was misunderstood? Or a hypocrite masquerading under the habiliment of the Faith?
“When God begins a work in scripture, particularly from the old testament, he begins with patterns, what we call types, shadows”.
“You say why because the patterns determine the flow of power and authenticity of that enterprise. He is a magician, a sorcerer, and calls himself a prophet.”
Quoting the Bible verse John 8:32, “Ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free”, Okotie added,
“Joshua took that name because he believes he is another Jesus. He believes that God sent him to our world to bring reconciliation between God and mankind, exactly the same way the Lord Jesus was sent, and that is why he took that name Joshua.” he said.
He further alleged that T.B Joshua was helping the needy and doing philanthropic work just so he could be like Jesus.
