‘Some are overseers’ — Pastor Kumuyi speaks on Deeper Life’s 15 founding members
William Kumuyi, the general overseer of Deeper Life Bible Church, says some of the people who started the church with him are now national and state overseers. Kumuyi spoke during a recent question and answer forum at the church’s headquarters in Lagos. According to information on the church website, in 1973, while serving as math lecturer at the University of Lagos, Kumuyi started a bible study group with 15 university students who had come to him requesting training in the scriptures. By the early 1980’s that small group had grown to several thousands, at which time Deeper Life Bible Church was formally established. At the forum, a woman asked if there had been any benefit for the 15 people who started the church with Kumuyi, adding that most of them are currently old. “My question is based on the 15 people that started this church with our daddy. I want to know if there is any benefit for them as a church,” she said. “Is there any care for them as a church because most of them are old enough (sic) in the church. Is there any way the church has fixed them?” Responding, Kumuyi said “God is taking care of them”, noting that some had become national and state overseers. “I thought about it and said look at that national overseer, we started together. Look at that state overseer there and there. As God is making use of me, he is using all of them,” Kumuyi said. “And one or two that may not be state overseer or national overseer, God has built houses for them. God has educated their children. They have gone overseas. They have had grandchildren. I cannot think of anyone faithful to God that God has not taken care of. “He is taking care of me and taking care of them. And the most important, they are saved and still remain saved. They are sanctified and they are following peace with all men, without which no man shall see the Lord. God is taking care of his people.” Source:
