Who Is Abel Damina Working For? (xii)

How did Adam become the first prophet, priest, head of the earth and pastor? The LORD God walked to him and gave him the appointments. In Genesis 6:18, God established Noah’s commission with, “But with thee will I establish my covenant.” Abrahamic approval received its indubitability in Genesis 15:17 “And it came to pass, that, when the sun went down, and it was dark, behold a smoking furnace, and a burning lamp that passed between those pieces.” Isaac and Jacob had personal calls of Divinity. Who called out, “Samuel,” when the last Judge, high priest and prophet of Israel was just a kid? Before Jesus began His soteriological ministry, He chose, by calling His apostles into the Lord’s vineyard. But Damina’s entrance into the pastoral business was a stumble of “In the bid to pray for people and help more people, I began to teach.” I thus agree with Joseph Uwana that Damina merely stumbled onto the ministry, very much an uncalled individual by God. No wonder, Dr Abel Damina opens his mouth to teach too much of eisegetical stuffs.
I know what argument is very likely to rise from dual suzerainty of the Divinity, “That’s God now!” Good, so let us do more digging of scriptural exegesis. Abraham was a businessman and had a calling into the prophetic office. Before you start to see no comparison, let us look at Moses, who held offices of the Prophet, Judge, Leader and the Priesthood. The spiritual – prophethood and priesthood – and the mundane – Leader and Judge – offices were well merged in one individual Moses. Samuel, of whom it is said, “And all Israel from Dan even to Beersheba knew that Samuel [was] established [to be] a prophet of the LORD” in 1Samuel 3:20; was also the high priest, the leader and the last Judge of Israel, God’s people. As the king of Israel, David held the political post. This same David was a prophet. Solomon ruled as the king, he was also the Preacher in the Book of Ecclesiastes. With these historic facts of God’s Book, what stops Reverend Chris Okotie and Pastor Tunde Bakare from running for the presidency of Nigeria? Absolutely nothing stops them: from the word of God.
