Apostle Michael Orokpo says prophets grow to become elders in heaven

(…continues from part two…)

3)            These are the teaching words of Apostle Michael Orokpo. “So, you come into the kingdom, you are supposed to be an heir, but even in Zion you will be a stranger. And then what God do is He will now show you different layers of reward; and one of the layers of rewards in Zion is that you will have the right to enjoy fellowship with Jesus. So, there are many people who will go to heaven and they will never see Jesus for eternity. Because not everybody will have the opportunity to stay in close proximity with Him. Because that one now is for the overcomers.” How can I help exclaiming, “What! For eternity a John 3:16 saved soul will not as much as catch a glimpse of his Messiah!”

                Does Michael Orokpo think the soteriological protocolary is a version of Alice in wonderland fairy tale? Orokpo, definitely, forgot that even when the parabolic ‘Prodigal Son’ came back even as a servant, in his mind, the Eternal Father made him understand that he was still a son. Orokpo fails to understand what the Bible says concerning anyone who goes to heaven, “Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is” (1John 3:2). The glory that will be revealed in us is so supernal that angels become lower to us in essence. Our eternal future knowledge of the Almighty is found in 1Corinthians 13:12 “For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.” This knowledge does not an exclusion of the physical personality of the Trinity: which is the true inference of 1John 3:2.

The rapture of Christians

So, if we are going to see Him as Christians of redemption, where does a styled Apostle Michael Orokpo get the idea of some or many Christians not seeing Him in heaven and, disturbingly, for all the eternality of the future? Three Scriptural facts: 1Thessalonians 4:16-17, 1Corinthians 15:51-52 and Romans 9:33 expose Orokpo’s faux pas. Let us begin this scriptural exercise with Romans 9:33 “As it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumblingstone and rock of offence: and whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.” Those who will truly believe Him will do the rapture with the Lord. 1Corinthians 15:51-52 “Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, 52) In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.” How will this happen? The Bible says in 1Thessslonian 4:16-17, “For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: 17) Then we which are alive [and] remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.” Are we meeting with the Lord Jesus in the air blindfolded, Orokpo? Selah!

Are Elders custodians of God’s secrets?

                The Elders whose seats of thrones form an arc before the throne of the Father, are they in Orokpo’s Zion? Who are those clothed in white robes of Revelation Chapter 7? Apostle Orokpo, definitely, cannot tell me the multitude of all nations has the convergence in Zion because the Bible explicitly says they, “stood before the throne and, before the Lamb.” Is Michael Orokpo trying to asseverate that the Elders have no place in Zion? Apostle Michael Orokpo does not seem to understand the gravity of faux pas, saying that some will never see Jesus Christ for all eternality of the future existence of saved Christians. He may not be aware of it, but Orokpo probably does not see the duplicitous attempt of Satanism to catechize empyrean disestablishmentarianism through him. One thing that is incontrovertible about Lucifer is his incapability to ever feel shame. This impudence the Devil has robed most pastors; hence, it will not surprise me if Orokpo will base his disquisition on scriptural fallibilism. 

                He does not see that his teaching is an inimical compartmentalization where the Father and the elders dwell in one celestial territory; Jesus Christ fellowships with those of Orokpo’s Zion; and the third empyrean zone has the Holy Spirit and those who, probably, did not do enough to receive rewards of heavenly hierarchy. There is a Scriptural facticity debunking Orokpo’s eisegetical faux pas which is found in John 14:2-3 2) “In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. 3) And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.” It will never shock me if Apostle Orokpo has also taught that the hapax legomenon ‘mansions’ of verse two is a physical edifice of empyrean realm.

Hereafter shall the Son of man sit on the right hand of the power of God (Lk 22:69).

                Dwelling apartments include roofing constructions, right? Now what many do not understand is that the throne of the Rainbow Administration Kingdom cannot have a roof over it. A roof over the head of the Most High structurally places a kind of limitations on His Omniscience, Omnipotence and Omnipresence. A roof is a custodial construction. Does God need any kind of shielding? Selah! The word ‘house’ is oikia (oy-kee’-ah): ‘An inhabited edifice, a dwelling. The inmates of a house, the family (especially domestics). Property, wealth, goods.’ Contextual understanding of oikia in this verse is: ‘home or family.’ The hapax legomenon ‘mansions’ is the Greek monē (mon-ay’): ‘a staying, that is, residence (the act or the place): ‘monē comes from menō (men’-o): ‘to stay (in a given place, state, relation or expectancy).’

Getting born again is a conscious effort on the part of an individual. Get born again. You were born in sin. Say this sinner’s prayer.

“Dear heavenly Father, I come to You now in the name of Jesus Christ. I believe in my heart that Jesus is the Son of God. I believe that Jesus died on the cross for my sin. I believe that You raised Him from the dead. I confess with my mouth that Jesus is Lord, and I receive Him now as my Lord and my Saviour. I give God all the glory. Amen!”
