QUESTION: This is a church and you don’t have a theological school and you don’t have branches. What happens to the church after you? How will the church grow from just this humble beginning to become a church of the world and after you who takes over?
ANSWER: You don’t watch Emmanuel TV? This is a year now or six months since I preached last and the church still continues. There are five prophets and prophetesses; they are working. They have taken over from me already. There is an American, a British, a French, and Nigerians.
QUESTION: One thing we have come to identify churches with in Nigeria, is that you have the man of God, his wife, and the first son in the line of succession but you are not toeing that line. It shows that you are looking at something that is beyond you. Are you not worried that some of them could appropriate the church as theirs?
ANSWER: This is where God comes in; it is not a business venture. If it is God, then it is God and then it is true. The issue of family should not come into the issue of the church – that is it; it is undeserved grace.
