๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐: ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐. ๐. ๐๐๐๐๐๐โ๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐!!!
The YouTube channel of the late Prophet T.B. Joshua and the SCOAN Nigeria has been once again removed from the YouTube platform, following the reporting of open Democracy media company. The aforementioned organisation claimed to have detected more than 50 videos on affiliated channels of Emmanuel TV, which expose the supposed victims that accused Prophet T.B. Joshua, yet they refused to specify those clips and how they violated the YouTube policies.
The fact that some YouTubers came out to defend Prophet T.B. Joshua, exposing the truth for the supposed victims and their lies with video-evidence, does not make these videos abusive and gives no legal right for SCOANโs YouTube channel to be removed from YouTube. Speaking the truth is not abuse, but a right that should be dearly protected and promoted!
So, their goal is to destroy the legacy of Prophet T.B. Joshua and the positive memory of him from the minds and hearts of all the people.
It is worth noting that BBC Africa's documentary on Prophet T.B. Joshua was created in partnership with openDemocracy that not only failed to present proof to support their investigation, but also denied the SCOAN Nigeria of their right to freedom of speech. As journalists, openDemocracy should be standing for the freedom of speech and the right to express oneโs beliefs through the spoken or written word, not shutting down other peopleโs voices only to allow their own point of view to be heard or read. According to the code of ethics (from the Society of Professional Journalists), a true journalist should โsupport the open and civil exchange of views, even views they find repugnantโ (repugnant - meaning views that they do not agree with).
After supporters of the SCOAN ministry on their social media published evidence against the accusations raised in the documentary, what the secular media saw necessary was to use their power in order to intimidate Christians all over the world by shutting down the YouTube channel of the SCOAN ministry.
Still, the Bible says that, โ[โฆ] ๐๐ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ ๐ฌ๐ฎ๐๐๐๐ซ ๐๐ฌ ๐ ๐๐ก๐ซ๐ข๐ฌ๐ญ๐ข๐๐ง, ๐๐จ ๐ง๐จ๐ญ ๐๐ ๐๐ฌ๐ก๐๐ฆ๐๐, ๐๐ฎ๐ญ ๐ฉ๐ซ๐๐ข๐ฌ๐ ๐๐จ๐ ๐ญ๐ก๐๐ญ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ ๐๐๐๐ซ ๐ญ๐ก๐๐ญ ๐ง๐๐ฆ๐.โ (๐ ๐๐๐ญ๐๐ซ ๐:๐๐-๐๐) So, being part of the body of Christ, we must continue standing for the Kingdom of God by responding to lies with the truth, and the truth shall set us free.
Remember, the One who is in us is Greater than the one who is in the world! (๐ ๐๐จ๐ก๐ง ๐:๐). Therefore, we believe that genuine children of God should refuse to be silenced, knowing that our voices can fight against the injustice, unite Christians across the globe, and keep lifting the name of Jesus Christ higher in the face of adversity!
