Bible scholars generally do not believe that the Gaius mentioned in 3 John 1:2 is the same as the Gaius mentioned in Romans 16:23. Here are some reasons for this conclusion: 1. Different Contexts and Locations: - The Gaius in Romans 16:23 is described as a host to Paul and the church in Corinth. The Gaius in 3 John is a recipient of a letter from John and is likely part of a different community, possibly in Asia Minor where John was traditionally associated. 2. Time and Geography: The Epistle to the Romans was written around 57-58 AD, during Paul's third missionary journey. The letters of John are generally believed to have been written later, possibly in the late first century, and are associated with a different geographical area. 3. Common Name: Gaius was a very common Roman name, making it likely that multiple individuals named Gaius are mentioned in the New Testament. While some may speculate about connections between these figures, the prevailing scholarly opinion is that they are different individuals. Al compiled research of history, scriptures and Bible scholars. Dr. Damina was wrong.
Pastor you don't need to explain to anyone your massage, you own no man any explanation except God. If pastor Abel, has tured himself to the holyspirit or The God head, Please sirs , let him be, Just go ahead to do your thing with God. Even the devil act as the angel of light, if common sense does not tell him or his followers doesn't tell him that he is destroying the body of christ I know Our lord Jesus christ will tell him very soon It is obvious he doesn't have a massage. May the Lord have mercy on him in Jesus name
Look at ur post....u wrote what u find out and end it Dr. U r wrong. Seems u don't understand research writing again. U did a poor interpretation of ur own AI.
Am an Anglican Priest, i want to commend Apostle oropo for his historical lecture. The letter killeth but the Spirit giveth life. Study to show yourself approved. May the Almighty God the giver of all good things continue to bless your ministry.
Miracles do exist but that doesn't mean that God wants us to live by miracles. If you didn't have the skills to sustain the miracle, they should have laid you off. God can come through for us but if we don't have what it takes to sustain that miracle, we will be looking for another miracle the next second. If God moves someone to bless you with 300ths and you don't invest the money wisely, soon you will need another financial blessing. Pastor Abel Damina is not saying that God can't come through for us. He is saying that we can't live by miracles. We can't make money by sowing seed in church. Why are you all so bent on not understanding his point. What about people who prosper without praying and fasting? The principal way of making money is by using our brains and hands. The principal way of making money is not by praying or giving money in church. This method only works occasionally. How many people did Jesus make rich? How many came to him to prosper materially? Is your Anointing more than that of Jesus Christ?

Any time a preacher speaks, always look for 3 things: 1. His Spirit of unity. 2. His doctrine that is premised on God's Love. 3. His character of humility. ....With that said ,judge well...I TAKE MY HAT OFF FOR APOSTLE MICHAEL OROKPO. Well done my brother KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK. I'M PRAYING FOR YOU

This is my first time listening to this young man of God , I like his humble spirit. He responded in love and humility. He responded for the sake to defend Bible truth and not to show how much he knows, that my brethren is true , Biblical Christian living. I am now prompted to find his teaching on RUclips. Keep up the good work my brother. We are not sent to throw stones and shows who knows more . Our Job is to reveal Jesus to the world and magnified Him for all men to see.
Welcome brother. I encourage you to listen to his sermons.. especially his series on , things that are most surely believed. It will set a good foundation for your faith.
I am an example that God prospers men. You can be well educated, productive and valuable and yet find no job until God helps you. My brother that was my story. I successfully graduated from my MBA program but couldn't get a good job. For 8 good years I was jumping from one minimum wage job to the other. One day I got fed up and decided to pay more attention to my walk with God. I rededicated my life to christ, prayed, fasted, studied the Bible and listened to sound teachings. After so many previous NOs on the job market it took the Word of God to encourage me to apply again. And Boom, I got my first real job. My people, God prospers. If you know, you know.
If not Idolatry and worldliness that has affected most Christians, what blessing from God can be more than the gift of the Holy Spirit? That is the highest blessing and what all Christians should glory and thank God for and not for material blessings. Anyone can get material riches whether they know God or not. But only those that know God can receive the greatest blessing 9f the Holy Spirit. I think this is what Dr Damina is trying to set Christians mind on and not material prosperity
@@UNITYOFFAITHTV So after the Holy Spirit, you won't need money right? It's the balance we're not getting right. But if you say God cannot prosper men, you're a big joke!
@@dennisodeiasimeng5049God gives you ability to make wealth and not wealth. He doesn't rain down money from heaven. You would have to invest, you would have to play your path. There is no miracle money anywhere. Let every man labor...according to the epistles, why didn't he just ask us to fold our hands and wait for blessings. Don't be gullible.
GOD propers You can't tell me otherwise It's was GOD that gave Pharaoh dream that none of is wise man could interpret except Joseph GOD did that to proper Joseph My GOD the living GOD I serve propers and he will proper me
For somebody to speak eloquently for over 36mins enlightening and imperting knowledge without mincing words is also a prosperity from God. May you continue to prosper. Just listened to you fully for the first time, and I can categorically say you are richly blessed.🙌
Mic it is not by mistake that you were once a teacher God really prepared you i tap from your anointing for my children especially my first son for you are unstoppable hallelujah
Another intelligent person spotted. You need to be deep to quickly make this statement of observation. God bless Apst. OROKPO and God bless you too sir.
I work at a mine and one day I said this words while I was with my friend " God doesn't make people to prosper,if I can compare myself with non believers then they are way too far with their blessings than what I have";all my life started declining and even the car that I have started giving me problems.One day I sat down and asked the Creator of everything and the answer was that I didn't make Him holy in my acquisitions.I learnt from that day that whatever a man achieves in life as long as you are a believer never think that it's acquired by one's own strength,only God through Christ who gives you strength.
The reason Nebuchadnezzar was turned into a beast for a season was because he attributed the prosperity of his kingdom to his personal efforts alone, removing God from the equation.Daniel 4:29-37 John 3:27
I've prayed for a day Apostle Orokpo will respond to Damina, and God has answered my prayer, Damina feels he knows bible, but God has blessed us with someone that is dangerously loaded with the spirit and has the word, the body of Christ will never be mislead by people like Damina, Glory to God hallelujah. Damina pls teach your people the kingdom business not negative criticism that will divide the family of Christ and mislead baby Christians.
Dr. Damina is an oracle of God and an able minister of the gospel stop trying to fight the truth because of favoritism speak the truth and stand for the truth no one is against miracles ive watched several instances where he has said God blessed him or supernaturally supply what the man of God is saying which a lot of them have started saying is God does not give any body money so if you are giving so that you can be rich you are deceiving yourself you will never get rich by tithing open your eyes many people have been scammed and its time for the truth to come out but nonetheless when you are a child of God you are favored which gives you an advantage to use the natural resources in the world and that is it
God bless you sir ,we don't mind the Antichrist ... The demon man that turns the word of God aside down ,criticing every man of God but refused to to face his own business

Apostle Michael is a cake well baked in the oven of holy Spirit. The savor is real and evident to all. More grace Sir... This is where Abel Damina missed it, just ordinary letter knowledge, no life, no impact.
@@Nicksonmumbunafrom what I even see here, he doesn't even really have knowledge. He is driven by prejudice. He claimed to have done his assignment; but he was so quick to respond without carefully checking what the person said or even the relationship between the two people. Like the preacher said, Satan has an agenda, first to disconnect God from prosperity, from healing and then from everything else. Then later he'll say God doesn't exist...
I had less than 100,000 in my account, but I needed over 600,000 to put my kids in a new school. I sowed my landed property to the church willingly because I didn’t want to sell it, and that same day, miraculously, two persons sent me over a million. God supplied within hours beyond my need at that point. God prospers His children, and I am a witness. Hallelujah!
Wow brother you nailed the point my issue with Damina is why is he so busy countering what people preach to discredit their knowledge of the Bible says we should correct in love the body of Christ is supposed to be one but for preachers like this hmmmmm may God arise and help us His church.
I believe the man Damina is beginning to enjoy unnecessary linelight and I believe it is getting to hus head, so re rushes to cndemn so many teachings in the peripheral just fir more media hype rather than teachings and edifying the people of the kingdom @ezomohchristopher1375
Thank you Apostle! The body of Christ needs more Men like you … so well articulated, backed with scriptures devoid of hatred and insults… God bless you … Jesus will smile at this presentation 😅👍🏽
The devil is always the winner when Christians seem to be fighting each other. A kingdom divided among itself cannot stand. May God bless the Apostle for the gentle spirit.
Nope... The bible says earnestly contend for the faith.... Even Christ told us to beware of false prophets We as Christians are to debunk false doctrines May God give us wisdom The battle is already won... The gate of hell shall not prevail 😊

When I finished NYSC, I came back home wirh the little savings I had. Before I knew, somehow the money was exhausted. I was left without money and hunger set. I started praying to God for a job. I pray fervently - one day small still voice said to me that I shouldn't worry that everything will soon alright. It wasn't upto two weeks in summary things started working. Now I am fully employed. Thanks to God. I believe God give the job in order to prosper me. Though I have invested academically in myself.
Very true God makes the sun to shine on everyone in the world, this is not a big thing to God but who Jesus was what he has done and what he mandates disciples to do is ultimate.
God gave me my scholarship. Anybody can say whatever they want. I couldn't have won a scholarship designated for only two people in the world. I won it by faith and prayer. I wasn't the smartest. God is called Father. I know what a father does. It includes blessing his children with material blessings.
Is that what you would call prosperity? 🤔 There are people who don't pray to get what you got! Actually, they are not believers and they are probably connected or prepared. We bless God for the response of God to your prayer and faith. But Jesus primarily came to bring life to the spirit. These other things are secondary and that's what ap Damina is saying. He is being corrective and bringing clarity to the message of prosperity
But two people will get the scholarship anyway? Are you implying only these two of you demonstrated faith. Or God hated the rest? I am sure people took more steps of faith than you, I mean the two of you who got the scholarship. Let's understand these aspects of our earthly life that, human beings are permitted by God to do certain things on their own without God's interference, such as when thousands, including a lot of God's people, apply for a scholarship.
The first time I listen to pastor Orokpo was when he was advising a woman getting married anout BEAUTY and CHARACTER. I fell in love with him immediately. You are the only person that i've heard teaching about what God can give you (riches, healing, blessing) and guide you on what to do for that gift to come. Everyday your preachings are a guide to my life. Blessings everyday 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 thank you sir
This man call pastor Abel is a problem to the body of Christ. He never has sermon topic on it own he always talk about other preacher. I call him anti Christ pastor Abel
There's no devil that will come and tell me God doesn't prosper men... God has prospered me, I heard God, I saw him and I become what he said of me. I always tell people to learn Bible to fight devil and not to use it for argument... God bless you Apst. Micheal Orokpo ❤️❤️
Apostle Michael is so right. If you say you don’t need God to prosper, very soon it will migrate to you not needing God to be healthy, very soon we will not need God for anything. I pray we don’t get to this point. So scary.
My brother, Abel is right. The richest people on earth are atheist who hate and deny God, and not Christians. Elom musk is the richest, including bill gate and many others, yet, they're not Christians. So, why are unbelievers richer than believers if truly property solely depend on God? Study your bible, you'll understand that making money is depended on PRINCIPLES. God already. Cain established several principles or laws that regulate everything we do on earth. let me ask u: why do we go to school? Why do we study hard? Why do we write exams? We could have just resigned everything for God to give us free degree, skill, professions, certificate and so on, without applying all the necessary laws put in places? Cain was cursed by God and driven from his presence, yet, Cain prospered, found city, and started mobilisation, yet, Stephen was so full of God and died prematurely without any wealth or asset. Pls let's stop being brainwashed...
Prosperity is not defined as wealth alone... that is the limitation here... Prosperity could be peace, favour and good health, and you can prosper in so many ways...but some men of God want you to think that prosperity is wealth... no!!
This is the best spirit-filled and balanced response I have seen on the internet. And Apostle Orokpo's response goes to show that wisdom is actually not a product of age and level of education: Wisdom is actually a product of the light of God. Apostle, may God continue to strengthen and bless you with grace and wisdom. You are truly a gift to the body of Christ.

@@UNITYOFFAITHTV We should be thankful to God for ALL his blessings, the Bible makes it clear that He is the ultimate Source of all good things. The spiritual blessings are of course most important and we should thank Him for them first and foremost, but all His blessings deserve our thanks.

Apostle Michael is just too good ...May God continue to bless you sir I had to save this video because this Apostles is chosen. We need more of you sir
I practiced withholding tithes and offering after listening a similar message preached by another preacher. Money disappeared,it became so hard to earn Money.. Years later I went back to giving my tithe and offering as expression of love and a point of contact with my God. Later God open financial Doors . He provided seed to the sower as the Bible says, In Genesis the bible says as long as the Earth exist ,there will be seed time and harvest time.
My dear Daniel, that’s why I don’t argue with people who don’t want to pay tithe oo. It was the same Dr Abel I listened to and became lackadaisical in paying my tithe.God quickly saved me by speaking through my branch manager to me then. I started struggling with finances. One day he just called me to his office and asked me whether I pay my tithe? And I responded no. He said please pay your tithe, give to your parents and do whatever you liked with the rest. Please I have never looked back.
@@johnbamikole5132I concur. Nigeria has millions of tithes, yet it is gradually becoming poverty head quarter if the world, where as many middle east and Asian nations are developing at the speed of light. Africans, let us build our institutions, many prayer points will be handled. God gave us the wisdom to take care of our fields. Corruption begits corruption no matter the tithes you squeeze out of them
@@johnbamikole5132Did Jesus not endorse tithe in Matthew 23:23? If you call tithe the law and say the law has been abolished, did Jesus not say that he has come to fulfil the law and that as long as the earth remains, the law must be fulfilled and that anyone who teaches otherwise shall be terribly punished? Did Jesus who endorsed tithing not say that our righteousness must exceed that of the Pharisees and Sadducees? So why will Jesus be stressing himself on 10 percent when he is expecting us to give 100 percent to him? You are fighting against 10 percent when the early Apostles where calling 100 percent from the early church who sold everything they had and brought to the church. Your case is finished just pray for God to cure your incurable foolishness.
Someone very close to me is suffering at the moment from unknown sickness that doctors don't even know the root cause. He was attacking tithing.s@@anitaelorm
The body of Christ must listen to this man of God. He is not only so intelligent but also supremely well read. What is most attractive about him is his humility. I am blessed to say that I have met him personally. God deserves to have minds like Apostle Orokpo's to disseminate the Gospel. Man of God, I salute you. God richly bless you.
Thank God Damina Opened his mouth again, if not, I wouldn't have learnt deeper as this from Apostle Orokpo. May God Continue to uphold you sir. @ApostleOrokpo
Christ never preached anything of such.. so? You people still don't want to understand the fact that being in existenc, you are already blessed God will not bless you materially (he already put everything out there and gave you a brain) You have to work.. if you like you believe it or not
@@tmbdajuniorY'all need to stop pushing this nonsense: Already in existence is a blessing? Yes. But if that is all there is to being blessed, even the mad man or mad woman going about naked and eating garbage is already blessed. Being financially blessed is part of our blessings as Christians as much as we work as well. To stand boldly behind the pulpit and discredit God on prospering His children is an aberration.
Those who says God don't bless us are fulls, I'm a business Man, I have worked without get God involved in my business. Now that I know Christ , I know the difference between now and then. No demons can convince me. The God, I serve blesses the work of my hand and favour me. Jesus be glorify forever.
I can't ignore to say God will bless this man. And permit him to grow more in grace. The different is clear between someone under the influence of the Holy Ghost and someone trying to gain influence by his intellect. A young man in his 40s teaching the dept of the scripture more than someone who called himself mate of our fathers
This is amazing! Divine prosperity in presentation of Godly message for the edification of the body of Christ, clearly demonstrated! More Anointing, more Grace to the Apostle of Jesus Christ,Amen.
The first disciple was a fisherman and had not caught anything for days, then he met Jesus. And he directed him where to cast his net, and he reaped abundantly that his net almost broke. The fisherman abandoned being a fisherman and became a fisher of men. Moreover, we are commended to commit our affairs to the Lord to establish our plans. I love the maturity of this cross rebuttal. Promotion comes neither from the east or West but from the Lord. My faith is strengthened.
A preacher with God's wisdom. I am always blessed listening to Apostle Michael Orokpo. The aim is always to ensure that the body of Christ gets enriched with spiritual knowledge. Thank you sir
"I can do all things, even in making money, through Christ who strengthens me." Glory to Jesus. God bless you, Apostle Orokpo Michael; Nigeria is blessed to have you in such a time as this.
Can we as a body of believers who sincerely are growing in Christ through the sound teachings of Apostle Michael Orokpo make it our duty to include him in our prayers? And by this, I mean to pray that God preserve him in Truth and holiness, so that he will not succumb to the pressures or deception of the prophetic cult that is going after all the righteous men of God initiating them and drawing them away from God's truth for their evil agenda.
Bro I really understand you by experience...I dare not even think it that i have another source apart from God...my strength is too small to prosper me...
This prince and gatekeeper knows so much..I love how he teaches,his messages have built up my most holy faith.Infact his teaching revived my desire to serve specifically to give to the homeless.May God continue to bless and increase him in Jesus Name.We love your teaching Sir it's done in love,it edifies.
A young man once came to our prayer meeting for the first time. In that meeting, I taught them about GOD'S FAVOUR. One of the things I said was that there are certain things in life that you can never get without the favour of God upon your life. This young man came to me at the end of that meeting and he told me that he had applied for the USA visa for about four times without success and that he has all the requirements needed. As a matter of fact, they have no reason denying him visa. I told him he needed favour and we prayed. I told him to apply again which he did and got the visa. Without God, you achieve anything. Whether you know God or not, He's connected to your success.

I love these intelligent, spirit filled explanations and scriptural exposition. As a teacher of the word of God and someone prospered by God's spiritual and physical blessings . I appreciate the light shined by the Apostle of this generation. God bless you more, sir 🙏
Abel Damina always glorifying himself in his teaching. I do hear him say "I AM TEACHING GOOD TONIGHT". Thank You Apostle Michael For this great response to the counter message from Abel Damina Ministries.
I keep sayy it that so many ministers that Abel attacks their teachings doesn't come out to respond with their own teachings doesn't make him more knowledgeable,schooled , critical thinkng than them.This is pure correction and edification,establishing truth with all humility,no anger, bitterness against anybody unlike abel that attacks with hatred,anger, bitterness and pride,self glorification without any edification,at the end who schholed who,who did his homework very, kaiiiii.Apostle mike i need to study more with the HolyGhost.
Bible scholars generally do not believe that the Gaius mentioned in 3 John 1:2 is the same as the Gaius mentioned in Romans 16:23. Here are some reasons for this conclusion:
1. Different Contexts and Locations:
- The Gaius in Romans 16:23 is described as a host to Paul and the church in Corinth.
The Gaius in 3 John is a recipient of a letter from John and is likely part of a different community, possibly in Asia Minor where John was traditionally associated.
2. Time and Geography:
The Epistle to the Romans was written around 57-58 AD, during Paul's third missionary journey.
The letters of John are generally believed to have been written later, possibly in the late first century, and are associated with a different geographical area.
3. Common Name:
Gaius was a very common Roman name, making it likely that multiple individuals named Gaius are mentioned in the New Testament.
While some may speculate about connections between these figures, the prevailing scholarly opinion is that they are different individuals.
Al compiled research of history, scriptures and Bible scholars.
Dr. Damina was wrong.
Pastor you don't need to explain to anyone your massage, you own no man any explanation except God.
If pastor Abel, has tured himself to the holyspirit or The God head, Please sirs , let him be,
Just go ahead to do your thing with God.
Even the devil act as the angel of light, if common sense does not tell him or his followers doesn't tell him that he is destroying the body of christ I know Our lord Jesus christ will tell him very soon
It is obvious he doesn't have a massage.
May the Lord have mercy on him in Jesus name
Dr damina pls must listen to the messages entirely not something the cutoff
It's not the same Gaius Sir. You're right
Look at ur post....u wrote what u find out and end it Dr. U r wrong.
Seems u don't understand research writing again.
U did a poor interpretation of ur own AI.
Do you have this video on Facebook?
I am a pastor but I just got schooled, Apostle Michael thank you sir for preserving truth in our minds.
God bless you sir and he'll increase you more for your good heart and humility Sir.....
Aside sprituality, Apostle Mike is an intelligent communicator
The Holy Spirit on him.
So blessed with Knowledge,wisdom and understanding Hallelujah
You're so gullible show me in the Bible where people can be called apostles, it says go out and make disciples
True❤
You didn't read your bible@@roastedvegetables3737
This Video Just Increased My RESPECT For Apostle Mike Orokpo👌🏽

As in...
Thank God I follow and learn from him,
At least am always getting unadulterated gospel 🙏
I love him, full of wisdom
Yes Sir
Honestly. He is a wise man
Am an Anglican Priest, i want to commend Apostle oropo for his historical lecture. The letter killeth but the Spirit giveth life.
Study to show yourself approved. May the Almighty God the giver of all good things continue to bless your ministry.
Pls explain the scripture you quoted. The letter killeth but the Spirit gives life
Miracles do exist but that doesn't mean that God wants us to live by miracles. If you didn't have the skills to sustain the miracle, they should have laid you off. God can come through for us but if we don't have what it takes to sustain that miracle, we will be looking for another miracle the next second.

My love for Oropko has increased.
❤yes he is so matured, wise and intelligent above all full of the spirit of God. I tripled my love for him
Very true
He is sound
I'm a theologian, and I love both Dr. Damina and Apostle Mike. But my spirit is connected more to Apostle Mike because of his humbleness of heart ❤️
This is my first time listening to this young man of God , I like his humble spirit. He responded in love and humility.
He responded for the sake to defend Bible truth and not to show how much he knows, that my brethren is true , Biblical Christian living.
I am now prompted to find his teaching on RUclips. Keep up the good work my brother. We are not sent to throw stones and shows who knows more . Our Job is to reveal Jesus to the world and magnified Him for all men to see.
I bet you will not regret that decision. God bless
I’m listening to this man for the first time. He’s so rich in biblical knowledge! Wow!! God give me grace o 🤲
Apostle Aromenis their grand father
Welcome brother. I encourage you to listen to his sermons.. especially his series on , things that are most surely believed. It will set a good foundation for your faith.
I very well agree with you guys. I thank God for the life of Michael Orokpo. His his teachings has really transformed my life
That's means you are missing so much😢
He is so sound,I found out about him about 2 years ago
I am an example that God prospers men. You can be well educated, productive and valuable and yet find no job until God helps you. My brother that was my story. I successfully graduated from my MBA program but couldn't get a good job. For 8 good years I was jumping from one minimum wage job to the other. One day I got fed up and decided to pay more attention to my walk with God. I rededicated my life to christ, prayed, fasted, studied the Bible and listened to sound teachings. After so many previous NOs on the job market it took the Word of God to encourage me to apply again. And Boom, I got my first real job. My people, God prospers. If you know, you know.
If not Idolatry and worldliness that has affected most Christians, what blessing from God can be more than the gift of the Holy Spirit? That is the highest blessing and what all Christians should glory and thank God for and not for material blessings. Anyone can get material riches whether they know God or not. But only those that know God can receive the greatest blessing 9f the Holy Spirit. I think this is what Dr Damina is trying to set Christians mind on and not material prosperity
Let put colonialism away from our mind, I use to think this way until I travel to the western world
@@UNITYOFFAITHTV So after the Holy Spirit, you won't need money right?
It's the balance we're not getting right. But if you say God cannot prosper men, you're a big joke!
@@dennisodeiasimeng5049God gives you ability to make wealth and not wealth. He doesn't rain down money from heaven. You would have to invest, you would have to play your path. There is no miracle money anywhere. Let every man labor...according to the epistles, why didn't he just ask us to fold our hands and wait for blessings. Don't be gullible.
GOD propers
You can't tell me otherwise
It's was GOD that gave Pharaoh dream that none of is wise man could interpret except Joseph
GOD did that to proper Joseph
My GOD the living GOD I serve propers and he will proper me
Pastor Orokpo you have my respect, love the way you responded 🤝
A man guided by the spirit does not attack people, he enlightens, thank you Apostle Mike for your humility
For somebody to speak eloquently for over 36mins enlightening and imperting knowledge without mincing words is also a prosperity from God.
May you continue to prosper.
Just listened to you fully for the first time, and I can categorically say you are richly blessed.🙌
Mic it is not by mistake that you were once a teacher God really prepared you i tap from your anointing for my children especially my first son for you are unstoppable hallelujah
Bro God bless you sir.
Another intelligent person spotted. You need to be deep to quickly make this statement of observation. God bless Apst. OROKPO and God bless you too sir.
I work at a mine and one day I said this words while I was with my friend " God doesn't make people to prosper,if I can compare myself with non believers then they are way too far with their blessings than what I have";all my life started declining and even the car that I have started giving me problems.One day I sat down and asked the Creator of everything and the answer was that I didn't make Him holy in my acquisitions.I learnt from that day that whatever a man achieves in life as long as you are a believer never think that it's acquired by one's own strength,only God through Christ who gives you strength.
The reason Nebuchadnezzar was turned into a beast for a season was because he attributed the prosperity of his kingdom to his personal efforts alone, removing God from the equation.Daniel 4:29-37
John 3:27
I've prayed for a day Apostle Orokpo will respond to Damina, and God has answered my prayer, Damina feels he knows bible, but God has blessed us with someone that is dangerously loaded with the spirit and has the word, the body of Christ will never be mislead by people like Damina, Glory to God hallelujah. Damina pls teach your people the kingdom business not negative criticism that will divide the family of Christ and mislead baby Christians.
He has no message again, Damina is constantly looking for other preachers messages to criticize
I hate division
@@chibuezeamadi5079like.... It's so sad. He's so bitter about people walking in the supernatural 😂
Wow !
Apostle am encouraged
More insight sir
Dr. Damina is an oracle of God and an able minister of the gospel stop trying to fight the truth because of favoritism speak the truth and stand for the truth no one is against miracles ive watched several instances where he has said God blessed him or supernaturally supply what the man of God is saying which a lot of them have started saying is God does not give any body money so if you are giving so that you can be rich you are deceiving yourself you will never get rich by tithing open your eyes many people have been scammed and its time for the truth to come out but nonetheless when you are a child of God you are favored which gives you an advantage to use the natural resources in the world and that is it
God bless you sir ,we don't mind the Antichrist ... The demon man that turns the word of God aside down ,criticing every man of God but refused to to face his own business
Speaking like this can only be from a man who knows God. Ayyyy... So full of wisdom, humility, knowledge..! More grace Sir...!

Wow brother you nailed the point my issue with Damina is why is he so busy countering what people preach to discredit their knowledge of the Bible says we should correct in love the body of Christ is supposed to be one but for preachers like this hmmmmm may God arise and help us His church.
I believe the man Damina is beginning to enjoy unnecessary linelight and I believe it is getting to hus head, so re rushes to cndemn so many teachings in the peripheral just fir more media hype rather than teachings and edifying the people of the kingdom @ezomohchristopher1375

When I finished NYSC, I came back home wirh the little savings I had. Before I knew, somehow the money was exhausted. I was left without money and hunger set. I started praying to God for a job. I pray fervently - one day small still voice said to me that I shouldn't worry that everything will soon alright. It wasn't upto two weeks in summary things started working. Now I am fully employed. Thanks to God. I believe God give the job in order to prosper me. Though I have invested academically in myself.
Very true God makes the sun to shine on everyone in the world, this is not a big thing to God but who Jesus was what he has done and what he mandates disciples to do is ultimate.
Teaching the Truth to the Body of Christ with such level of Humility is Edifying. Let us Always follow the Lord 's n apostle's, footsteps,Amen.
God is responsible for every Kobo I have ever had in my life❤❤❤

Perfect reply.
I have no words but to marvel at what God did with this man of God... what a teaching... apostle Mike
God gave me my scholarship. Anybody can say whatever they want. I couldn't have won a scholarship designated for only two people in the world. I won it by faith and prayer. I wasn't the smartest.
God is called Father. I know what a father does. It includes blessing his children with material blessings.
I receive some on Jesus' mighty name
Amen
God bless you for this comment, sir.
Is that what you would call prosperity? 🤔 There are people who don't pray to get what you got! Actually, they are not believers and they are probably connected or prepared. We bless God for the response of God to your prayer and faith. But Jesus primarily came to bring life to the spirit. These other things are secondary and that's what ap Damina is saying. He is being corrective and bringing clarity to the message of prosperity
But two people will get the scholarship anyway? Are you implying only these two of you demonstrated faith. Or God hated the rest? I am sure people took more steps of faith than you, I mean the two of you who got the scholarship. Let's understand these aspects of our earthly life that, human beings are permitted by God to do certain things on their own without God's interference, such as when thousands, including a lot of God's people, apply for a scholarship.
Amen. God bless you sir
A man in whom the Spirit of the Holy Gods dwells..That statement befits the Apostle
yes absolutely
U can type that again sir.
Great man God has blessed us with.
The first time I listen to pastor Orokpo was when he was advising a woman getting married anout BEAUTY and CHARACTER. I fell in love with him immediately. You are the only person that i've heard teaching about what God can give you (riches, healing, blessing) and guide you on what to do for that gift to come. Everyday your preachings are a guide to my life. Blessings everyday 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 thank you sir
This man call pastor Abel is a problem to the body of Christ. He never has sermon topic on it own he always talk about other preacher.
I call him anti Christ pastor Abel
Hallelujah sir. I drink from those same waters.
He is wisdom and knowledge personified
No doubt, It's really an honourable and a humble response...
It takes a mature man of God to do that......
That is enough in the first place..
There's no devil that will come and tell me God doesn't prosper men...
God has prospered me, I heard God, I saw him and I become what he said of me.
I always tell people to learn Bible to fight devil and not to use it for argument...
God bless you Apst. Micheal Orokpo ❤️❤️
I love you bro ❤
Apostle Michael is so right. If you say you don’t need God to prosper, very soon it will migrate to you not needing God to be healthy, very soon we will not need God for anything. I pray we don’t get to this point. So scary.
My brother, Abel is right. The richest people on earth are atheist who hate and deny God, and not Christians. Elom musk is the richest, including bill gate and many others, yet, they're not Christians. So, why are unbelievers richer than believers if truly property solely depend on God? Study your bible, you'll understand that making money is depended on PRINCIPLES. God already. Cain established several principles or laws that regulate everything we do on earth. let me ask u: why do we go to school? Why do we study hard? Why do we write exams? We could have just resigned everything for God to give us free degree, skill, professions, certificate and so on, without applying all the necessary laws put in places? Cain was cursed by God and driven from his presence, yet, Cain prospered, found city, and started mobilisation, yet, Stephen was so full of God and died prematurely without any wealth or asset. Pls let's stop being brainwashed...
This is maturity from Apostle Michael Orokpo
so matured I just loved this apostle so much
I love Apostle Michael Orokpo
Please I think we Christians should learn from pastor mike in all his explanations he was responding to pastor damina in humility
And Damina is responding to people in arrogance, no be every pastor well oo, make Una tell am oo, even God get some pastors wey craze pass am
I just fell in love with this man. full of wisdom and a master communicator!
"In your walk with God, you should be able to trace instances when God prospered you. . ." What a word!!!
Prosperity is not defined as wealth alone... that is the limitation here... Prosperity could be peace, favour and good health, and you can prosper in so many ways...but some men of God want you to think that prosperity is wealth... no!!
Great
Humble display of scriptural knowledge. Oh lord I need this teaching grace
The last time I checked, God still prospers and make men Rich.
This is the best spirit-filled and balanced response I have seen on the internet. And Apostle Orokpo's response goes to show that wisdom is actually not a product of age and level of education: Wisdom is actually a product of the light of God. Apostle, may God continue to strengthen and bless you with grace and wisdom. You are truly a gift to the body of Christ.
This is what you get when there is no clear vision from God. always cantering the message of others pastor
If not Idolatry and worldliness that has affected most Christians, what blessing from God can be more than the gift of the Holy Spirit? That is the highest blessing and what all Christians should glory and thank God for and not for material blessings. Anyone can get material riches whether they know God or not. But only those that know God can receive the greatest blessing 9f the Holy Spirit. I think this is what Dr Damina is trying to set Christians mind on and not material prosperity
Can u shut up and stop spamming every message.
So after receiving the Holy Spirit, u won't need money ba?
How can u advance the kingdom without a wealth of resources? Ehn?

The Bible repeatedly underscores the importance of thanksgiving in all things (Eph 5:20, Ps 103:4).
@@UNITYOFFAITHTV You keep saying same thing in people's reply
This is why I love this man of God , never attack anybody doctrinally
The body of Christ needs Peerless geniuses that are willing to follow God sheepishly. Thank God that we found one in Apst. Michael
Nigeria 🇳🇬 is blessed to have Michael Orokpo.
There's no way a man prosper without God intervention..
Miracles do exist but that doesn't mean that God wants us to live by miracles. If you didn't have the skills to sustain the miracle, they should have laid you off. God can come through for us but if we don't have what it takes to sustain that miracle, we will be looking for another miracle the next second. If God moves someone to bless you with 300ths and you don't invest the money wisely, soon you will need another financial blessing. Pastor Abel Damina is not saying that God can't come through for us. He is saying that we can't live by miracles. We can't make money by sowing seed in church. Why are you all so bent on not understanding his point. What about people who prosper without praying and fasting? The principal way of making money is by using our brains and hands. The principal way of making money is not by praying or giving money in church. This method only works occasionally. How many people did Jesus make rich? How many came to him to prosper materially? Is your Anointing more than that of Jesus Christ?
Papa Selman will always say prosperity is dimensional.
1. Spiritual
2. Financial
3. Physical/ bodily
4. Relationship wise
5. Mental
Yes you are correct sir

On my first encounter with orokpo's message, I fall in love with him many years back till date. More grace for kingdom impact @Appostle Mikel orokpo.
I am happy to be part of your generation sir. I am so inspired by you. God bless you greatly.

Apostle Orokpo, you're awesome, spirit filled, explicit in teaching. This historical presentation is very impactful.
See guys am a testimony of blessings from God. I may not have too much but what I have I believe its from God, the favour is too much. I live in UAE 🇦🇪 and trust me I have seen so many things but the prayers of my wife and mother is making God have mercy and he is opening doors for me.
This man is a spiritual genius. Thank you for revealing the truth to deliver christians from erroneous teachings
Kudos to Arome
Very sound. My respect for this man has increased more. Never really listened to him but he has the right spirit. That is enough for me.
I Respect You Apostle Orakpo. You Are Deep In Scriptures. Remain Blessed And Highly Favoured In Jesus Name.
Apostle Michael is just too good ...May God continue to bless you sir
I had to save this video because this Apostles is chosen. We need more of you sir
I practiced withholding tithes and offering after listening a similar message preached by another preacher.
Money disappeared,it became so hard to earn Money..
Years later I went back to giving my tithe and offering as expression of love and a point of contact with my God.
Later God open financial Doors .
He provided seed to the sower as the Bible says,
In Genesis the bible says as long as the Earth exist ,there will be seed time and harvest time.
You are what you believe...as a man thinketh in his heart, Did Jesus collect tithe from any of his disciples?...
My dear Daniel, that’s why I don’t argue with people who don’t want to pay tithe oo. It was the same Dr Abel I listened to and became lackadaisical in paying my tithe.God quickly saved me by speaking through my branch manager to me then. I started struggling with finances. One day he just called me to his office and asked me whether I pay my tithe? And I responded no. He said please pay your tithe, give to your parents and do whatever you liked with the rest. Please I have never looked back.
@@johnbamikole5132I concur. Nigeria has millions of tithes, yet it is gradually becoming poverty head quarter if the world, where as many middle east and Asian nations are developing at the speed of light. Africans, let us build our institutions, many prayer points will be handled. God gave us the wisdom to take care of our fields. Corruption begits corruption no matter the tithes you squeeze out of them
@@johnbamikole5132Did Jesus not endorse tithe in Matthew 23:23? If you call tithe the law and say the law has been abolished, did Jesus not say that he has come to fulfil the law and that as long as the earth remains, the law must be fulfilled and that anyone who teaches otherwise shall be terribly punished?
Did Jesus who endorsed tithing not say that our righteousness must exceed that of the Pharisees and Sadducees?
So why will Jesus be stressing himself on 10 percent when he is expecting us to give 100 percent to him?
You are fighting against 10 percent when the early Apostles where calling 100 percent from the early church who sold everything they had and brought to the church.
Your case is finished just pray for God to cure your incurable foolishness.
Someone very close to me is suffering at the moment from unknown sickness that doctors don't even know the root cause. He was attacking tithing.s@@anitaelorm
The body of Christ must listen to this man of God. He is not only so intelligent but also supremely well read. What is most attractive about him is his humility. I am blessed to say that I have met him personally. God deserves to have minds like Apostle Orokpo's to disseminate the Gospel. Man of God, I salute you. God richly bless you.
Very humble man of God.
Thank God Damina Opened his mouth again, if not, I wouldn't have learnt deeper as this from Apostle Orokpo. May God Continue to uphold you sir. @ApostleOrokpo
No Christian in their right mind will ever say God does not prosper us financially or materially. He does.
Fr
Not all...otherwise why would Jesus say that the poor will always be with us? Christianity is about salvation not financial prosperity..
Christ never preached anything of such.. so?
You people still don't want to understand the fact that being in existenc, you are already blessed
God will not bless you materially (he already put everything out there and gave you a brain)
You have to work.. if you like you believe it or not
@@tmbdajunior
Sorry, but I'm thinking you don't know what Christ taught. Otherwise, you wouldn't have said that.
@@tmbdajuniorY'all need to stop pushing this nonsense: Already in existence is a blessing? Yes. But if that is all there is to being blessed, even the mad man or mad woman going about naked and eating garbage is already blessed.
Being financially blessed is part of our blessings as Christians as much as we work as well.
To stand boldly behind the pulpit and discredit God on prospering His children is an aberration.
Those who says God don't bless us are fulls, I'm a business Man, I have worked without get God involved in my business. Now that I know Christ , I know the difference between now and then. No demons can convince me. The God, I serve blesses the work of my hand and favour me. Jesus be glorify forever.
Abel Damina is not ready for edification but faults others.
Well done Apostle Mike Arokpo I salute you. We shall be praying for Abel Damina.
Trust Abel to respond to this & create more trouble. We need to pray for his conversion again. I think he has been possessed
Yes hes really ready to criticise ministers of the gospel
Like seriously, Apostle Michael is too much. God is with you indeed! The explanation alone is superb.
Thank God i jumped to this video.
Man of God, Pastor forget Damina. Let him continue, his reward is on the way.
Your humility is top notch. So also is your understanding and communication of the scriptures
I can't ignore to say God will bless this man. And permit him to grow more in grace.
The different is clear between someone under the influence of the Holy Ghost and someone trying to gain influence by his intellect.
A young man in his 40s teaching the dept of the scripture more than someone who called himself mate of our fathers
This is amazing! Divine prosperity in presentation of Godly message for the edification of the body of Christ, clearly demonstrated! More Anointing, more Grace to the Apostle of Jesus Christ,Amen.
It tells you that sometimes age or experience are not enough. There is a spirit in man, the inspiration of the Almighty gives him understanding.
This is my first time hearing him. He's a wise man. He doesn't have a sharp tongue.. he's humble.
The first disciple was a fisherman and had not caught anything for days, then he met Jesus. And he directed him where to cast his net, and he reaped abundantly that his net almost broke. The fisherman abandoned being a fisherman and became a fisher of men. Moreover, we are commended to commit our affairs to the Lord to establish our plans. I love the maturity of this cross rebuttal. Promotion comes neither from the east or West but from the Lord. My faith is strengthened.
He could have been in the church praying for miracle why did he want fishing.
Why are Christians not the richest in the world?
God bless in Every way the Bible says In Everything you do make it known to so That it may come to successful❤❤
A preacher with God's wisdom. I am always blessed listening to Apostle Michael Orokpo. The aim is always to ensure that the body of Christ gets enriched with spiritual knowledge. Thank you sir
"I can do all things, even in making money, through Christ who strengthens me." Glory to Jesus.
God bless you, Apostle Orokpo Michael; Nigeria is blessed to have you in such a time as this.
U've succeeded in quoting that text completely out of completely
@Davo_Baba Take a mic 🎤 and explain what you're saying and why you find it difficult to understand what we are talking about.
My love for Apostle Michael no knows bound..... Thank you for this sounds teaching sir.
Can we as a body of believers who sincerely are growing in Christ through the sound teachings of Apostle Michael Orokpo make it our duty to include him in our prayers? And by this, I mean to pray that God preserve him in Truth and holiness, so that he will not succumb to the pressures or deception of the prophetic cult that is going after all the righteous men of God initiating them and drawing them away from God's truth for their evil agenda.
God is the Sole reason for my prosperity! If I tell you I know another way, I will be lying!
Bro I really understand you by experience...I dare not even think it that i have another source apart from God...my strength is too small to prosper me...
Me too bro. Thank you 🙏🏾
Same with me.
I totally agree with u
May you live long
Apostle Orokpo is a gift from Idoma land to the world.
Yes o. God bless him
Maximum respect to you sir I will love and respect you more and more I love this mandate.❤
This prince and gatekeeper knows so much..I love how he teaches,his messages have built up my most holy faith.Infact his teaching revived my desire to serve specifically to give to the homeless.May God continue to bless and increase him in Jesus Name.We love your teaching Sir it's done in love,it edifies.
This man is a custodian... Thank you Jesus for Apst Michael pls keep him in Jesus name...
A young man once came to our prayer meeting for the first time. In that meeting, I taught them about GOD'S FAVOUR. One of the things I said was that there are certain things in life that you can never get without the favour of God upon your life.
This young man came to me at the end of that meeting and he told me that he had applied for the USA visa for about four times without success and that he has all the requirements needed. As a matter of fact, they have no reason denying him visa. I told him he needed favour and we prayed.
I told him to apply again which he did and got the visa. Without God, you achieve anything. Whether you know God or not, He's connected to your success.
Hi
So what about pagans??
@@mosesmlaha5660even this video has answered this your question already, what else do you want to hear again.
Go and read your Bible if you have one
My Generation is privileged to have you sir Apostle Mike
More grace and wisdom Sir
I so much love you sir
I am also an epitome of who God prosper, I remembered in 2016 to 2018 how I suffered until I prayed to God and he answered my prayer
May that be my testimony, also like God did for Jabez

Apostle michael orokpo is an elder,. Thank you jesus for this gift in a man ...
My love for this man eeehn!
Lord be praised for granting you knowledge to rightly dividing the word.
This explanation is quite intelligent
A round of applause for this Great apostle. May God continue to bless him with divine wisdom. Glory to God.
Thank you Apostle Michael Orokpo.
I love these intelligent, spirit filled explanations and scriptural exposition. As a teacher of the word of God and someone prospered by God's spiritual and physical blessings . I appreciate the light shined by the Apostle of this generation. God bless you more, sir 🙏
Blessed be God for making Apostle Micheal Orokpo a blessing for the body of Christ.
Abel Damina always glorifying himself in his teaching. I do hear him say "I AM TEACHING GOOD TONIGHT". Thank You Apostle Michael For this great response to the counter message from Abel Damina Ministries.
Also calls himself or answers Global Baba
I keep sayy it that so many ministers that Abel attacks their teachings doesn't come out to respond with their own teachings doesn't make him more knowledgeable,schooled , critical thinkng than them.This is pure correction and edification,establishing truth with all humility,no anger, bitterness against anybody unlike abel that attacks with hatred,anger, bitterness and pride,self glorification without any edification,at the end who schholed who,who did his homework very, kaiiiii.Apostle mike i need to study more with the HolyGhost.
Isn’t this just a wonderful spirit-led expository?!!!
This is what Paul meant by “rightly dividing the word of truth.”
Love you mike
I think that man Abel is the Saul of our time God will still visit him. I only pray his turn won't be late
