In a thought-provoking sermon, Apostle Johnson Suleman of the Omega Fire Ministry highlighted the dangers associated with poverty, deeming poor people as potentially dangerous individuals. The controversial cleric expressed his concern that most of those who have launched attacks against him were people facing financial hardships.
The apostle shared his sentiments via a video posted on his Facebook page, recorded during one of his Sunday church services. He reflected on his ability to retaliate against those who trouble him, but reaffirmed his commitment to abstain from doing so, as he believes that God is capable of dealing with his adversaries on his behalf.
During the sermon, Suleman disclosed, “The most dangerous people in this world are poor people. Poor people are dangerous. Poor people are ‘a set up’. I am being honest with you.”
He went on to reveal that, during his prayers, God had bestowed upon him various covenants, one of which ensured his continuous wealth. Suleman admitted to consistently practicing kindness towards the poor throughout his life.
However, he expressed confusion as to why the poor were the ones accusing him online, and not those who were financially well-off. He stated, “When somebody is calling out my name on social media, go and check, it’s the poor. And I ask why don’t the rich accuse me?”
Suleman explained that his covenant with God prevented him from pursuing legal action or retaliating against anyone who is poor. He warned that if he were to go after a wealthy individual, it would be because they had committed an egregious offense. Conversely, targeting a financially disadvantaged person would only invite trouble. He emphasized that poor people often set traps for those who confront them, highlighting the vulnerability of their situations.
Suleman continued, “You come after them, God will come after you. You see why poor people are set up. You come after them, and someone will come after you. You have the capacity to grind the person to powder, but God has the capacity to grind you to powder too.”
Concluding his sermon, the apostle expressed his frustration, stating that the poor frequently displayed ingratitude. He lamented, “My hands are tied, and the poor, they don’t know how to stop. The poor people are ingrates, most poor people are ingrate.”
