Calvary Greetings Brock Lesnar,

I am appalled but not surprised that rather than apologise and act Christlike, you went to your congregation and lied.

A random content creator, didn’t shout on you, didn’t call your name, he was just on his own making videos of EXPENSIVE CARS in Lagos.

You could have continued driving, but NO
You stopped, it was not enough
You wind down, it was not enough
You pointed a WEAPON and spoke aggressively (even if it’s a stick and not a gun)
WHAT WAS THE REASON?

If it was at night, I’d have said possibly as the Brock Lesnar that you are, you felt threatened
But on broad daylight, the boy was not aggressive, was not shouting, did not even expect you to stop, he was just being excited and filming nice cars in Lagos.

And you stopped like a street tout and pointed a weapon. Is that a Jesus behaviour? Ehn Brock Lesnar?
Even the way you spoke was Distasteful.

Even Jesus was approached by killers and he didn’t point a weapon at them.

Did Jesus ride on expensive horses?
Did Jesus act like a street tout?

You have a severe traffic aggression and you have to work on it. The other day you punched and injured a bus driver for overtaking your vehicle, today you’re pointing a weapon “even if it’s a stick”, I am sure by tomorrow, you would anoint someone’s head with a car-jack.

I pray Jesus visits those that attended your wrestling ring this Sunday so they can develop actual brains, and stop being pawns to institutionalised religious slavery.

Best regards to you Brock Lesnar, may the Lord continue to strengthen your uppercut and provide helmets for your enemies.

Yours in holy combat,
Serah.

Dear pastor Paul Adefarasin,

You told your congregation that you were not carrying a firearm, but can you please tell us what you were holding in that video?

*I WAS FALSELY ACCUSED OF BEARING A FIREARM. - Pastor Paul Adefarasin*

During the Service on Sunday at the House on The Rock Headquarters, Pastor Paul Adefarasin addressed the accusations labeled at him for pointing a firearm at a content creator.

While addressing the congregation, he said, “I was falsely accused of pointing a firearm at an aggressive content creator who came within personal distance.” He further clarified, “I do not have a pistol license for a firearm. I do not carry a firearm; I pointed no firearm at anybody.”

He further said that what happened wasn't just a mere attack on a local Church or a pastor. It was an organized strategy of the forces of darkness. He explained that at the root of the incidence was an enticement of the enemy which always point to the love of money. ‘Click baiters are just looking for more money,’ he remarked.

According to him, it wasn't in their Church policy to dignify hate speech or false accusations. “We believe that God is bigger than that” - he stated. He quoted from Romans 12:19 “do not repay evil for evil.”

He also said he was shocked and hurt when people called and sent him different videos. He encouraged himself with the fact that God would always turn what the enemy meant for evil to work out for good.

He further said, people are always at the lookout for a time where one will get a little stumble, trip, fall or falter so they can use it against the person. “You can't be a pastor and not have to deal with that. That's the part of the price we pay” - he stated.

He concluded by saying, “learn something from the process and go forward because the enemy's objective is to stop you from doing what you are called to do.” “We are leaving the matter to God trusting Him to do what needs to be done. On this note, I will lay that matter to rest. Case closed.”
