The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye revealed that, theological education is very crucial in correcting heresies and wrong doctrines in the society.

The cleric said this on Tuesday, July 4, during the inauguration of a new administrative building and chapel of RCCG Bible College main campus, Redemption Camp, Mowe, Ogun State.

Adeboye who was represented by Pastor Joseph Obayemi, National Overseer Emeritus, RCCG, said theological education was necessary to guild and train up and coming pastors against wrong doctrine.

“Theological education, such as ours, is very vital to our society, especially in this end time when there is a lot of heresies and wrong doctrines in our society.

“This happens when the up and coming pastors, who have no mentor, will just climb the pulpit and say so many wrong things.

“And because of their charisma and youthful exuberance, many will continue to follow them, but schools like this can be used to guild them.

“If they come for the training, we will teach them that there is difference between being charismatic, anointed by God or being matured spiritually.

“Theological education opens our eyes to see more rudiments of Christianity and not just anybody going to the pulpit to preach.

“So, theological education is very necessary for our time and it will continue to be useful, even in the nearest future, ” he asserted.

Consequently, Adeboye also hinted that the new administrative building of the college was a reflection of the glory of God.

 Pastor Ezekiel Odeyemi, RCCG Continental Overseer while speaking said, the Bible college was an integral part of the church.

Odeyemi said the college was crucial to the progress of the church and to maintain the integrity of the doctrine of the gospel.

Also, Pastor Babatunde Adedibu, the provost of the college, said the motivation behind the new building was the resolution of the board of governors to reposition the college to an affiliate of two recognised universities in Nigeria by the National Universities Commission (NUC).
