Kola Oyeyemi Tackles Gender Equality In ‘Beware Of Pastors…Pastors Beware’


“Beware Of Pastors… Pastors Beware!” is about the present day Nigerian Church; using biblical references, practical examples and what can be described as astute literary skills, Kola Oyeyemi, sheds light on controversial issues trailing the Church of God in Nigeria.

“Beware Of Pastors… Pastors Beware!” is a relatively short book of eighty pages. In seven stunningly simple chapters, Oyeyemi examines God’s original intention for man in his various relationships and how ignorance exposes the Christian to false prophets.
Kola’s is brutally honest with his examples, regardless of the fact that he is a pastor.
It’s the first time the author who is characteristically conservative, is embracing controversy. But he says the message in his book is clear, and divinely inspired.
“Note that God did not take any part from Adam’s ankle, heel or feet to make the woman. He took from his side. They were created as equal beings. Adam did not need to condescend to relate with her; hence their being naked without any of them being ashamed.”
Although these lines would excite feminists, they are apt and bring attention to the hardly addressed struggles of the modern day Christian.

“Beware Of Pastors… Pastors Beware!” is not your regular Christian book. It uses Biblical references to tackle topical issues plaguing the 21st century Church of Christ.
