Christ Apostolic Church, Oke-Alafia Efun Zone, Ibadan, on Saturday February 22, 2020 held a programme tagged "Zonal Seminar 2020."
The General Superintendent of CAC Worldwide, Pastor Samuel O. Oladele was the guest minister of the programme with the theme "God of our Fathers be with us."
Pastor Oladele while ministering said that there is no member of the church who should be guilty of apostasy legacies of the founding fathers of the Church.
He noted that the founding fathers lived a godly life worthy of emulation, saying that the same God that helped them is still alive and we can do the same.
According to him, God helped the founding fathers of CAC to live righteously and stand for the truth, stating that we must emulate them.
While explaining the humility and brokenness lifestyle of the first President of the church, Oba (Pastor) Isaac Babalola Akinyele, the General Superintendent said it is not enough to read about the lifestyles of our founding fathers, we must also emulate them.
He said despite the fact that there were evil characters in their generation, our patriarchs stood for God till the end and God who helped them can help us to live consistent Christian life.
The Cleric said: "I have said it before and I will repeat it, no Ibadan, Ekiti or Ilesa man can make it to God's kingdom. It is only the redeemed of the Lord."
Prophets of this generation, according to Pastor Oladele, should stop taking pleasure in cursing their followers or members, saying that Moses ought to curse the Israelites for making him to sin against God which hindered him to get to the promise land, but he never cursed them.
Meanwhile, the Zonal Sunday Coordinator of Oke-Alafia Efun Zone, Pastor M.B.A. Adediran appreciated God while speaking for making the programme a reality.
He noted that he conceived the idea five years ago, appreciating God for the realization.
Pastor Ayobamidele Peter is the Zonal Superintendent of Oke-Alafia Efun Zone.
