Pastor Noah Abraham of Christ High Commission Ministry in Ekiti State has explained why he recently charged his members N310k to make heaven.
.
.
The pastor was recently invited by the police for allegedly collecting money from members of his church on a promise to take them to heaven after the rapture.
.
.
Abraham was said to have kept about 40 people in his church at the Araromi-Ugbesi in Omuo-Oke, Ekiti State in what he described as preparation for the coming of Jesus Christ, otherwise known as the rapture.
.
.
Some of his church members have allegedly sold their belongings, hoping Jesus would meet them while camping at his church while a few others are said to have abandoned their families who refused to join them to live in the church.
.
.
Speaking with BBC Yoruba, he said, “Truly I told my congregation to pay N310,000, I made the declaration when I noticed that my members’ troubles were increasing.
.
.
I did it because I got the authority of God who called me to practise for all that want to serve the Lord with their whole heart. I have never received any payment yet from any member of the church, and the Ekiti State Police has intervened in the matter.
.
.
I was called by the police for Investigation and all the members of the church were there and all of them took notes of what happened.“
