cog tradition (April 27, 2012)
There is a long tradition in COG. Starting with Cook Sayippu many of the pastors and leaders who have worked faithfully and sacrificially were always ignored and never appreciated and thrown out of COG. However, somehow all the crooks, back biters, legalistic, pharisees, master liars, looters, blade mafia, gundas, fake writers and fake holiness group(this group always writes about vishudhi, verpadu, biblical& 1st century church, corruption, immorality etc etc) and then behind the scenes they are busy writing oomma kathu, kuthu prasangam, gathering and assembling people against pastors, verbally and emotionally abusing pastors and believers, making and treating pastors like a servant, never spending money, time or effort for the church, but always on the criticizing mode acting as Gods right hand and fully holy, when they are devils tools. They have strong words to fool poor believers from any pulpit. I can boldly write their names of BJ will publish my comment.

thammil bhedam thommanaaa. although pas kunjappy is not an accredited and blameless leader; there does not seem to be a better alternative as all the so-called alternative leaders being discussed/suggested in this forum r nothing but frauds & 'murimookkan raajakkanmaar'. the basic principles in the appointment of the os should be that apostle paul set forth in the epistles of titus and timothy. let there be a panel prepared out the best from the available in terms of ability, spirituality, leadership quality and above all blameless of any kind of scandals. opinion of each local congregation should be sought through sincere secret ballot or open ballot in deriving the panel. further screening and test should be done to arrive at the best choice. it is also not a bad idea to give a probation period of few months for the os to prove his qualities to become the confirmed overseer. if he does not perform well in accordance with the set principles, he should be avoided. thank you. :)

Well spoken pastor j k. The man has thick skin. He will not step down, and he trying his best to keep his clout as being Overseer. I am remindes of some of the famous quotes:
"Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely"
"Unlimited power is apt to corrupt the minds of those who possess it"

cog pastor,regarding pr. p.r baby , he was a pastor standing strictly for the pure pentecostal doctrines till he was influenced by sr. angelica. cog accepting pr. p.r baby means the visions and teachings of sr. angelica is accepted by c o g. we require a clarity in this subject from the leadership. we must have a clear vision in what we believe.the unity in faith stands on the written word of god spread all over the world.if new visions and teachings not parallel to the scripture is accepted here and there, will there be any unity in faith?

there is some people in the leadership they are useless such as, thomas pulivelil, vinod jacobe, a t joseph, they paid lots of money to pastor to win the last council election. people like t a george who has no testimony need to be avoided from all the leadership roles. same goes to c p varghese, abraham philipose (who had the guts to stand on the stage and telling all the world the current overseer is not educated), abraham m thomas (who is a weel polition) cg samkutty, who is using church for the business purpose. this need to be stopped and they need to be baptized again (may be hold under the water for 5 minutes).

so far i don’t understand why some of the people in the forum scared of an election from all the pastors. i seen so many commands trying to support the current overseer and trying to put down other people. please know that all these people are good and may be capable of running the show. we only asking let the general body of the pastors elect the overseer. i don’t know which part of this you don’t understand.

pastor agree with your comment but i think you are absolutely wrong about the council secretary. i don’t believe he is spiritual at all, if you look back the friction. any way my point is that, if you preach about wearing ornaments are wrong, you should not attend pr. p r baby’s church and not only attend dont serve communion in his church. the present overseer does that. also pr. p r baby is a new generation faith believer. he and all who support this need to be removed from the church.

I am just amazed at the kind of appreciation that you have showered upon Pr Kunjappy. He must have influenced the brains of lot of folks in the forum. Maybe a kickback/bribe etc to write some goody words here.
My opinion is he is tarnishing the name of COG. He need to step down immediately and the council should find someone who is fair and just. Why ask the corrupt to run the show? And by the way what does he know other than beg for money? And how many trips has be made to Foreign countries in his tenure as Overseer?

It seems to have become quite characteristic of Kerala Pentecostal preachers and even writers to make hyperbolic statements. For instance, Dr. Jaison Thomas, in his article appeared in Believers Journal (March 2011, Vol. 04, Issue: 05) has called Dr. Roger Hedlund a world famous missiologists. I find it a bit of an exaggeration to call Dr. Hedlund as such. This is not, in any way, to undermine the significant contribution of Dr. Hedlund to missiology. He is certainly one of the important missiologists in India. But it doesn’t mean that he could be ranked among the world renowned missiologists like Gustav Warneck, Lesslie Newbigin, David Bosch, Johannes Verkuyl, Andrew Walls, and others. These are very distinguished missiologists who have exerted great influence on missiological thought worldwide. Despite his significance as a missiologist, Dr. Hedlund cannot be called world famous. Pentecostal writers need to be more objective in their writings and analysis.

What you said is absolutely correct. Now a days among pentacostal I found everybody is interested in pointing fingerss on others specialyy real child of God.. Nobody is there to say a good word about faithful leaders like Rev. M. Kunjappy. Satan is favouring to those who are saying bad about Gods servants. CGI need leaders like Rev.

People are proud of their Church organization and claim 'our church' is the biggest and holy.But scripture says there is only one church , the body of Christ and the only leader is Jesus Christ. All church organization in the world can have only one role, the role of a training camp.Those who are trained strictly according to the only syllabus (The written Word of God) will be accommodated in the real Church. Try for that than being proud of the size of organization and its leader which is immaterial to achieve the real goal( Eternity with Jesus). Competition in and between the organizations-claiming those of born again, baptized- defends people from salvation and they feel shelter in the worldly denominational churches in which they are born.Real believer , please be serious about the situation.

our common enemy should be "devil". not cg/ipc/ag or any other people. i feel we are trying to extract evil from others. please stop this. i can see the number of real believers are decreasing though our membership is increasing. ipc claim they are the "biggest" church, cg claim thay are a big international organization. ulimately who cares. once we die all these organizations are not important. try to lead holy/righteous life before god. that is what god looks into.

Dear Mathai usa, Good that you are ready to pay all your money. You should become overseer. We will support. But it is much easier to become ipc president with your "qualifications". I know a normal guy from usa, became ipc State president by paying few lakhs of rupees every month surpassing the ~30 years vice-president. Also many becoming central pastors in India residing in US. You have a better chance there. Otherwise you are wasting your time in cgi.

I am writing this comment with certain reservations. I know many of the Kerala Pentecostal leaders, but none oft hem personally as close friends. There was friction among the disciples; who is going to be the leader. The Naxalite brand Peter (he formerly belonged to the radical Zealot group) was laying the strategic foundation to be the absolute leader of the disciples. But, Jesus showed an example of " washing their feet " as the ideal and spiritual route to reach the zenith of leadership. Now, leaderships are attained through body size, degrees (some of them are worthless) family status and wealth etc. Nobody wants to be a disciple, but aiming at the head post.

@ Apologetics Council: There is a proverb in malayalam- "Vellutthachhi enthu cheyithaalum kuttam, karutthachhi cheyyunnathu aarum sradhikkareeyilla" ethaannu evidee nadakkunnathee_ Pastor Kunjappy is from a wealthy background, so that creates a suspicion among the so called unfortunate brother's_ that he is using his money for his advantage_ this is the truth!How many do we know came to full time gospel work with their own money!In most cases the fact is otherwise, then the preaching, its God's Blessing!My opinion is that nobody has the right to see Pastor Kunjappy's or his son Shaji's bank statement, those are their private money!Anyone asking to see anybody else's private money should be ashamed of themselves!The Personal wealth/money needs no accountability to the public as it is a private affair, while the same that belongs to a Church or Organization is a public affair and thereby needs accountability!!!!!!

There is strngth and weakness in any leaders. There is some goodness in pr. kunjappy and evilness too. His main focus is to make some buildings. So he try to get money. For that he please all rich people and automatically he is controlled by the rich. Whatever they say he will do. The outcome is that the church of god will be in the hands of a few money makers and buisness people. Then church of god will be kallanmarude guha. Dont think that there is no able leaders in church of god. There are educated, spiritual, capable pastors in church of god. But othukkum. But one thing is sure, whoever become overseer, there will not be spiritual growth in church of god. Allayenkil panatthinu meethe parakkan kazhivulla parunth church of godil valarnnu varanam. So all church of god members must earnestly pray for such a anointed leader. Pr. Kunjappy must be replaced by such parunth.

I think you all should focus more on Evangelizing than this kind of unwanted subjects. I see a trend of bringing up some Church of God irrelavent issues in your recent issues. Is CoG the only church with issues? Journalism is different from this. Are you willing to do this type of "comments" for other organizations also? We are living in the last seconds before the return of Jesus Christ. Please be an instrument to lead others to Christ than distract people from it. God bless you.

Do any of you know what is the official policy to elect the Overseer in Church of God. If you don’t know it is not elected from Council, he should be elected by the Pastors General body. If Church of God Leadership can do this and whoever wins from the General Body let them take the charge of the office. I request stop electing from the Council. This is a backdoor for to sneak in to the position. The above noted item is taken from the Church of God minutes.

The decision to display the names of donors of above Rs. 50000/- to office complex fund, on the complex walls itself shows the quality of the existing overseer and the council. They are opening door to breach Mathew,ch.6 v.1-3. Spirituality counts by wealth status is not Biblical.This technique was introduced by Catholic church before years to collect funds. But even they are not doing it now.

I am absolutely flabbergasted by the previous opinion of my dear brother. Church of God under the leadership of M. Kunjappy is doing much better than the previous two leaderships we had. The leadership change is not an absolute necessity. It may be considered as a viable option provided we can substitute with a better candidate who can take COG to a higher plataue. Under the leadership of Kunjappy there was total financial accountability, which the previous two administrators have not demonstrated. There will be other persons to step in and take the leadership role. God will always be with the church

a change in the leadership is absolutey necessary to bring back the spiritual image of the organisation. the current leadership is a failure in respect to maintain the doctrinal discpline as well as spiritual quality. the policy of the present leadership is that "you are right if you pay money for the activities of the church"
