Leader and founder of the Glorious Word and Power Ministries International, Prophet Isaac Owusu Bempah, has said that he will not condemn the late founder of the Synagogue Church of All Nations, Prophet Temitope Balogun Joshua who is in the news for allegedly maltreating some of his church members.
According to him, though he did not like his style of operation as a man of God, he cannot utterly believe what the BBC documentary is also saying about him and the alleged atrocities he committed while he was alive.
The British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) released a three-part investigative documentary outlining alleged atrocities and sexual crimes committed by the late Pastor Temitope Balogun Joshua, widely known as TB Joshua.
TB Joshua passed away on June 5, 2021.
As part of the investigation, the BBC interviewed at least 30 former members and workers of the Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN).
The three-part documentary exposed the covert lifestyle of the deceased SCOAN founder, detailing instances of abuse, harassment, rape, manipulation, and staged miracles.
Sources informed the BBC that although the church was aware of all the allegations, they never investigated them. They alleged that the sexual crimes spanned over two decades.
But speaking on Okay FM's 'Ade Akye Abia' programme, Prophet Isaac Owusu Bempah explained that they are all not perfect.
"I have had my own encounters with the late man of God where his followers have insulted me about a revelation I put out there about the late man of God.
"Though I did not see him as a genuine man of God, I was not the one to condemn him, and we all have our flaws; we are not perfect," he said.

Your response is very unfortunate, Rev Bempah. Looks like you want sympathy, for saying we all have flaws. You may be correct to say that on the surface, but the truth is, this is an attack on Christianity in general. I am surprised you don't know that. Also, not seeing Prophet TB Joshua as genuine is a dent on your own prophetic ministry, ecause in the kingdom, we are supposed to know each other. Let's grow up into maturity beyond mere operation of gifts !!!
We all have our flaws refers to a one time lust just as you Owusu Bempa one time married an apio drinker and regretted. That one we all know you are not an angel but to make it a habit or a routine to torture and rape church members all the time can't be accidental either than that there won't be judgement.
Well said, @Takum. We are just a pathetic group of people, accepting any behavior from so called “men of God”. Tweaaa!
Look at this criminal too! You guys just have no respect and fear of God
Well,raping people is much more than a flaw:it is a crime! If those allegations turn out to be true then he was a really horrible person. Africans tend to gloss over crime especially if it involves a famous or powerful person .
