Nigerians have reacted to the reported sacking of 40 pastors by the Living Faith Church International, popularly known as Winners' Chapel.
user, Gbubemi Awala, cited a verse in the Bible, saying, “I am the vine you are the branches, any branch that doesn’t bear fruit my father will cut off. Jesus cursed a fig tree that didn’t bear fruit, the parable of the talent also shows how God hates fruitlessness. The servant didn’t do anything in the eyes of men when he returned the one talent he was given back to the master, but God saw wrong.
Reacting to comments scolding Winners’ Chapel for sacking the pastors, one Oghenegoma Favour said, “If you are an employer and your employee fails to perform as required by his or her terms of engagement, will you keep the person? We are just being petty and unnecessarily nosy. Anyone that is paid can be sacked, so also the person has a right to resign.”
One Mathew Michael Ejovwo said, “I think we should stop being sentimental in our approach. Suppose the said man was working in a secular private firm and was given a target in a time frame and did not meet up the target, he would be sacked. The sacked man had been slothful. He had thought that since it’s a church appointment, no one would terminate it. He failed to realize that it was a man that hired him not God. When man hires; he can also fire.
