According to Charles Awuzie, there are some other doctrines that enslave people.
He listed five of them and called on churches to follow Pastor Adeboye’s example and work on reforms.
He listed some of the doctrines as follows:
“1. People who don’t pay tithe will suffer loss, poverty, sickness and when they die, they will go to hell fire.
2. If you don’t have a prophetic covering, you will be vulnerable to misfortunes.
3. Sow seeds to prosper. If you don’t sow seeds, you won’t prosper.
4. Even if you are kind to humanity but if you don’t believe in the doctrines of a religion, you will be punished in hell fire.
5. Questioning wrong doctrines is fighting the body of Christ.”
“The above lies troubled my conscience so I decided to step back and live a non religious life but continue my service to humanity outside the pulpit. Pastor Adeboye’s Apology is a welcome development but there are more Pentecostal doctrines used to enslave people. For true reformation to happen, we must freely question everything and anything without fear or threats.”

“Charles Awuzie- In the end what matters is if you have fulfilled God’s purpose and assignment for your life.”

“Question everything. In a certain course, it holds that questions are even more important than the answers.”
