The Confusion in the Church and the Modern-day Judases within: Thinking like Satan!

Posted by Deji Okegbile | Apr 1, 2026 | Missions and Evangelism |

“‘But there are some of you who do not believe.’ For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were who did not believe, and who it was that would betray Him” (John 6:64). On this day, just over 2,000 years ago, Judas Iscariot left in secret to betray Jesus. This warns us of the present confusion in the church and our strong pull toward wrong behaviour, greed, pride, rebellion, and unbelief. The confusion in the church and the concept of the “Judas within” both point to the thinking of Satan and create a state of spiritual dissonance, where internal...

Remembering MICHAEL BAMIDELE OBADIMEJI @ 70: 14 years after his gruesome MURDER.

Posted by Deji Okegbile | Mar 30, 2026 | Events |

The gruesome murder of my brother, Mr Michael Bamidele Obadimeji, remains unsolved by the Nigerian Police and the judiciary 14 years after the sad tragedy on his way to a prayer meeting at Ori Oke Agbara Nla, Lalupon, Iwo Road, Ibadan, on the evening of Saturday, 3 March 2012. No one could imagine the darkness and sadistic evil in our country despite our religiosity. To lose my brother in a most inhumane, barbaric death is shocking. Some of us, as his family, died too. We couldn’t protect him. His assassination reminds us of the costs of standing up for...

The World is my parish – John Wesley.

Posted by Deji Okegbile | Mar 28, 2026 | Methodism, Missions and Evangelism |

I look upon all the world as my parish; thus far I mean, that, in whatever part of it I am, I judge it meet, right, and my bounden duty to declare unto all that are willing to hear, the glad tidings of salvation. This is the work which I know God has called me to, and sure, I am that His blessing attends it. Great encouragement have I, therefore, to be faithful in fulfilling the work He hath given me to do. His servant I am, and, as such, am employed according to the plain direction of His...

Dr Edwin Sangster: A MODEL FOR PROPHETIC VOICE OVER BRITAIN AND METHODISM.

Posted by Deji Okegbile | Mar 26, 2026 | Missions and Evangelism |

“We are combating something deep in the soul of the nation, … For this deep malady, we need some deep X-ray therapy that we have not found.” – Rev William Edwin Sangster. Rev. William Edwin Sangster is remembered as a “herald of holiness” who advocated “perfect love” (a core Wesleyan doctrine) as the remedy for Britain’s and Methodism’s spiritual decline. He complained that ‘agnosticism is flourishing in Britain in place of the great religious revival for which Methodists so fervently hoped. Last year, the number of new Methodist church members (current membership: 739,000) fell to the lowest level in...

A Retreat Presentation for Sunday School Teachers at Cornerstone, UK by Bishop Deji Okegbile. Texts: Jn 7:38 – Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them.

It emphasizes that true joy, peace, and hope come through faith, not circumstances. Introduction: Globally, the joy, purity, and peace of the church are at stake – Discuss. The Apostle...
