Divorce drama: Anita Oyakhilome’s name removed from Christ Embassy church website

The divorce mess between Pastors Chris and Anita Oyakhilome of Christ Embassy Church has worsened, P.M News reports.
On Sunday, two days after it was reported that Anita Oyakhilome had filed for divorce, Christ Embassy deleted her pictures and personal information from its official website, www.christembassy.org.
Many describe the action as the beginning of a process to shut her out of the church, after she accused her husband of “adultery” and “unreasonable behaviours” in a divorce suit filed in London last April but only made public on Friday. Continue...
Christ Embassy’s new website now shows only Pastor Chris Oyakhilome, with a broad smile welcoming his followers to the month of August, and tagging it, ‘Month of Praise’.
In the message on the website, Oyakhilome also urges his followers to “rejoice for the joy of the Lord is your strength.”
Also, on the website of the Rhapsody of Realities, a daily devotional co-authored by the esrtwhile couple, there’s nothing to show that Anita is still recognised as the only visible face on the website among the family members is that of her husband.
It was too early to know if the September edition of the Rhapsody of Realities still has the photographs of both the pastor and his wife as it used to be.
In the past, when the going was good, Anita and Chris Oyakhilome held hands on the church website and smiled broadly. They projected the image of a perfect couple.
But P.M.NEWS checks at the weekend revealed that there is confusion in the church following the divorce suit filed by Anita to end her over two decades marriage to the founder of Christ Embassy Church.
In the past, Pastor Chris headed the Nigerian branch of the church, though he travelled to other branches occasionally, while Anita headed the branch in London and its environs.
Christ Embassy and its founder have been embroiled in a myriad of controversies in the past. In 2010, Oyakhilome was accused of engineering a money laundering scheme in Nigeria, and questions swirled around his finances because of his glamorous lifestyle.
Many pastors and theologians also excoriated Oyakhilome for his “New Creation” doctrine—a form of gnosticism that says after a person becomes a Christian, any sin they commit is only in the body and will not affect the spirit.
In 2008, Oyakhilome’s reputation as a faith healer was tarnished badly in Johannesburg, South Africa, when a man told a Soweto newspaper that Christ Embassy offered him more than $1,200 to sit in a wheelchair and pretend to be crippled until Oyakhilome prayed for him.
“The man went to the media instead of taking the money, sparking concerns that healings were being faked to impress growing crowds,” said Lee Grady in an article in 2012 published by Charisma Magazine.
Pastor Chris Oyakhilome has also been a target of criticism by the Treatment Action Campaign for his support of faith healing to cure HIV.
Allegations that Christ Embassy members are reportedly being forced to give huge sums of money in offerings with the biggest donors receiving the biggest awards have left many people concerned.
Many Nigerians have also alleged that the church operates like a cult and pressures members to marry only within Christ Embassy.
Many people also remember the scandal involving Christ Embassy and Sheraton Hotel some years ago when a member of the church, who worked at the Sheraton Hotel, stole money from his employers and gave it to Christ Embassy. But when Sheraton approached the church for reimbursement, the church allegedly claimed that the money had been given to God and could not be refunded.
Many also excoriated Pastor Chris some years ago when the church began collecting gate fees from members for their New Year Eve’s Service.
More recently, Oyakhilome came under attack after he claimed that Christians were free to masturbate because it was not a sin.
But the latest scandal involving Anita and Chris, who have two daughters, seems to threaten the very existence of one of the biggest churches in Nigeria.
Christ Embassy runs several arms including the Healing School, Rhapsody of Realities, and an N.G.O called the Innercity Missions as well as three Christian television channels: LoveWorld TV, LoveWorld SAT and LoveWorld Plus.
The church is scattered all over the world, including in the United Kingdom, the United States, South America and the whole of Europe.
Stories about women bringing men of God down are not new. In 1988, Jimmy Swaggart, a famous American preacher was implicated in a sex scandal involving a prostitute that resulted initially in his suspension, and ultimately defrocking, by the Assemblies of God.
Three years later, Swaggart was implicated in another scandal involving a prostitute. As a result, Swaggart’s ministry became non-affiliated, non-denominational and significantly smaller than it was before the scandals.

Lord restore my faith because these people that say they are your men are really eroding my faith like a typhoon. i don’t know who and what to believe again. how do i even know You are the One who says what they say You say? Oyedepo slapped a poor woman and bragged about it, Okotie keeps changing wives like vulcanizers change tyres on road sides, T.B, Adeboye et cetera et cetera and now Pastor Chris. How are the mighty fallen? The church is now all about private jets, bugattis, lambos, ferraris, hectares of land, private schools, private hospitals, private anointing, family cartels and dynasties of succession, child abuse, child molestation, den of pedophiles, wicked and unreasonable political affiliations, religious showmanship and stagemanship, rosaries and litanies of ungodly awesome escapades. Now i cant even go to church, sit down and listen to them because my gut feeling is always telling me that they are lying, that their lives are nothing but smokescreens and that they are maintaining double standards. Jesus help me because I have lost faith through these men.

    3. Your faith should be hooked on God and not man that is ever capable of faults. "Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith" Hebrews 12:2. Do not be shocked, this isn't the first neither will it be the last. The righteous may fall but he will definitely rise up again if he still has humility and faith in his creator.

  17. the woman has tried. you have no idea what she's been enduring since 2002. yanking her details off the website is sufficient evidence of the disrespect she's constantly had to put up with all these years. you guys dont know nothing. infact her allegations are mild in comparison to what she's been up against. i unnderstand she had to make sacrifices for the sake of ministry, and so putting up a front was all part of it. But i don't know how she has coped. sigh!!!

  19. Personally ,i think these guys needs to be remembered in our prayers. We are all humans. i can tell you that some women can be so annoying just like the men too. But on this issue i think something is definitely wrong because Pastor Chris knows the principle of marriage and the scriptures to back it up and i begin to wonder why he could not use the tools he has already.These whole issue must have been cause by a mere suspicion that resulted to distrust and the devil has seen a large window to jump in through. i am more concerned about the marriages that will be affected by this,b/cos a lot us look up to these men. please lets pray for them(personal Opinion)

    1. The only thing is the grounds that the divorce has been petitioned on. It's either she used 'unreasonable behaviour' or 'adultery'. They need to get that fact straight. That's what makes me think this story may not be totally straight. Btw am a family solicitor in the UK so I know the law

    King David even added murder to his own adultery, God punished him, forgave him and restored him. Why? He genuinely repented. There's only one sin that God will not forgive - blaspheming the Holy Spirit. As long as there's sincere repentance every other sin will be forgiving and forgotten.
    Let the church intercede for their pastor and his wife in prayer that they may repent, do what is right in the sight of God. Facebook and Twitter is not the ans.

Hope this will remind and teach people that any church built on the ideology and the image of mere men (a picture of pastor and wife instead of a picture of the cross, which is a symbol of Christianity) is not a real church. It's just a business entity that provide services of religion to the interested public for financial gains that are not taxable by the government.

Do you think a woman, who has children for a man, and for a man as rich as pastor chris, after knowing what all these might cos for her, her children and her husband, will still proceed? You all seize to look at the matter at hand, and carefully examine it. This woman would have been putting up with this pain for long, maybe she has gotten to a break point and decided to put an end to it all and is willing to endure whatever pain is coming because of her actions rather than endure the one she has been enduring for years. You are all shouting, don’t judge the man of God. A man of God should not inflict pain on his family, a man of God should not be caught breaking God’s rule, the same one he preaches everyday. Women, please b4 u throw stones at that poor woman, would you give up a life with someone as rich as pastor chris, after having 2 children for him (Love atleast thats what i think). Since this case involves a high profile pastor in our country, the truth i can guarantee you will only be coming from the wife, anyother story u hear will either be from the pastor, or his followers. Small time they will start saying all manner of Bad things against the poor woman. Nigerians, we are where we are today because we dont think when we supposed to. We are biased, and many will be in this case simply bcos na Pastor Chris… Receive your healings…lol… Just cant stop laughing. Mrs Oyakhilome, its better you came out now and i really wish so many other Nigerian women can be like her. PPle…. u did not even see something else in this entire scenario, SHE DID NOT FILE FOR THE DIVORCE IN NAIJA, SIMPLY MEANING SHE DOES NOT TRUST OUR LEGAL SYSTEM…. Yet some pple here dey hala say make una no talk bad abt man of God… Our country get problem, we need to solve, pastor chris to me is a nobody like everyone of us in this country…. At least that is what naija government has to turned us to in the face of the outside world…

In Nigeria, marriage is seen as all in all even among g educated ladies that's why some will rather die in their own feces and urine after a hard days beating than leave an abusive man. I have seen a nurse, whose prospects was higher than the empire state building become a vegetable, a mad woman all because she married a drunl looser. Why on earth will a woman with such access to wealth and respect want out if not that she's going through hell.

    1. This is the best comment on this story! Some goes wrong in a marriage, the woman is the one to blame! It involves a pastor, the woman automatically becomes the demon that wants to destroy! My God! Women really take shit! You have said it all. As a country with countless Churches, has it ever occurred to us that spiritually something is wrong? Nigerians practice religion and worship idols in form of pastors instead of God. Until we change to practicing Christianity and calling a spade a spade, I'm afraid....

  68. Divorce proceedings start with separations, first and foremost, therefore, the crises must have been going on in their lives for long. The fact that this couple are having marital issues simply shows that we are all human and imperfect subject to the vagaries of human behavior. I have never been one to glamourize another's marriage irrespective of your position in the society.

""biggest donors receiving the biggest awards have left many people concerned."" i hav personally withness a similar case in one of his satelite church in woji, port harcourt. when i was bored of attending my church den we decided to attend closer church to us which turn out to be loveworld. no one invite us. na only we waka go. but to my shock, one of the user or workers in the church walk up to us that and ask if anyone invited us. we said NO. he den said wen dey call first timer, we suld indicate that he invited us. I was lik WaT!. i showed him my fist if he dare do such a thing., we later discovered d church plan to give ipad to the workers that have highest first timer to their name. i stop goin there. but i still lik d pst chris in some way.

    1. Stop worshipping idols in the form of pastors. Worship the creator rather than the creation.

  73. It is the MORONS who follow them blindly I blame. People follow all these so called pastors, here in London White people don't go to church and yet very happy. I don't believe in all theses fake ministries living large on your heard earned money. Wake up people. Theses churches are FRAUD.

  75. Lord restore my faith because these people that say they are your men are really eroding my faith like a typhoon. i don’t know who and what to believe again. how do i even know You are the One who says what they say You say? Oyedepo slapped a poor woman and bragged about it, Okotie keeps changing wives like vulcanizers change tyres on road sides, T.B, Adeboye et cetera et cetera and now Pastor Chris. How are the mighty fallen? The church is now all about private jets, bugattis, lambos, ferraris, hectares of land, private schools, private hospitals, private anointing, family cartels and dynasties of succession, child abuse, child molestation, den of pedophiles, wicked and unreasonable political affiliations, religious showmanship and stagemanship, rosaries and litanies of ungodly awesome escapades. Now i cant even go to church, sit down and listen to them because my gut feeling is always telling me that they are lying, that their lives are nothing but smokescreens and that they are maintaining double standards. Jesus help me because I have lost faith through these men.

    1. You are not serious at all for making this comment. keep shutting your eyes to the fact. Divorce papers are already in the London court yet you say they are not divorcing? be deceiving yourself.

  84. Linda, you did not add that he wed Mercy Johnson to another woman's husband and the father of the woman's children. This clearly shows that he has no value for morals. For all you people who use "Judge not...", the same bible says "By their fruits, ye shall know them". Stop being deceived, stop being slaves, don't allow your souls to perish. I am waiting for the girls that will soon start coming out with their confessions...

    1. Don't say what you knw nothing abt. Dats hw ppl sit in their homes nd judge wat dey knw absolutely nothing abt. Are u Mercy johnson's broda or sister? Or maybe u r her father or mother. By their words u shall knw dem...you sit in ur house nd judge a man of God saying he has no values for morals. Remember dis words u hav used against him. The Bible said, judge not so u won't be judged but u sit der nd type rubbish judging him. May God forgive u. And for ur info, dey r not divorced Ok! Sorry to brk ur heart Mr judge. I hope ur own dad has morals too cos his daughter or son is really lacking one.

  92. Not that surprised, have always wondered how they keep their marriage when they live so far apart and the numerous women following him around all in name of performing one church program or the other. My grandma used to tell me that you dont leave a male and a female alone, it could lead to so many things. at any rate the bible says it all in the book of Revelation. But ma brother, why does brother Chris Oya have to perm his hair, tone up his skin and keep nails? Dont we think he could, just a little bit be gayish.

  97. My only problem with this article is the daft comment at the end about women 'bringing men of God down'. In the first place, this woman is an equal investor and, logically, an equal partaker in the benefits of whatever they were doing together. If she has endured this far and chooses now to opt out, she knows best why she has made this decision and is certainly well within her rights. Second, if a man, especially one in a position of authority/responsibility, chooses of his own free will to visit a prostitute, he should be ready to face the consequences and stop hiding behind illogical claims of demonic attacks or sabotage.

  98. Pastor Chris should read the open letter by one Emeka from London to Pastor Anita. It is not for her alone to take action but for Pastor to be bold enough to take further step / response at saving his marriage. Chris should not escalate the situation.
    It is now that we will know who is a good preacher. A good preacher is one that does whatever he preaches.
    May God save His church. Toks
