Pastor Israel Adebayo
Pastor Akinola is home with his Lord and Saviour! Glory to His Name! I have known our dearest pastor in the 80s as a fiery and powerful preacher of the Word of God when he was with us at the Deeper Life Bible Church Lagos before he started his ministry. His style of delivery was very similar to that of our father in the Lord, Pastor (Dr) W.F Kumuyi. Oh, what a preacher and doer of the word he was! He was lovable, approachable and very humble. His death came as a rude shock but we take consolation in the Holy Scriptures, and we sorrow not, but rejoice in the fact that on the Resurrection Morning, we shall all meet to part no more at that Eastern Gate. Farewell, our beloved pastor, father and preacher.
May God grant the entire family and the Redemption Ministries the comfort of the Holy Spirit and the fortitude of hearts to bear this irreparable loss which is heaven gain. Good night sir, we shall meet in the Morning!
