Pastor Joshua Iginla has heavily criticized Rev. Chris Okotie for making damaging statements against late T.B. Joshua.
Okotie, the founder of the Household of God Church, had described the late founder of The Synagogue Church of all Nations, as a ”magician” and a ”sorcerer”
In a 75-minute video titled ‘The truth about T.B. Joshua’ which was posted on his official YouTube channel, Okotie said T.B. Joshua equated himself with Jesus Christ by his name, conduct, and spiritual pattern.
“Joshua claimed he is the one that the Lord has appointed in this generation to bring reconciliation between God and man. And he is not the first to propose such a ludicrous concept. Because even Jesu Oyingbo did the same thing, he calls himself Emmanuel. And we have the same thing with the entity in Calabar who used to call himself I Am.
“So Joshua believes he is aloof from Jesus, that’s why he took the name Joshua because that’s the name that Jesus bore when he was right here on earth. The full name is Jehoshua, which means Jehovah is salvation. The name Joshua and the name Jesus are exactly the same.”
“He is a magician, a sorcerer, and calls himself a prophet. Notice he doesn’t call himself an apostle, he doesn’t call himself a teacher, he doesn’t call himself a pastor because if he calls himself by any other name outside of prophet, he does not fulfill the pattern. So, he must stick with that appellation. He must call himself prophet so, so and so… So, he is a magician who claims to be a prophet but he is a false prophet,” Okotie said.
Speaking on the topic on Sunday, Iginla asked: “So it is now an error to bear Joshua?”
Condemning Chris further, Pastor Joshua Iginla said: “…That he was sharing the same name with Christ. So, you bearing Chris, are you not sharing the same name with Christ?
He continued: “Pastor Chris Okotie is a disgrace to the body of Christ. How do you talk about the dead in this manner? How?”
