The Platform 11.0

 An old time revivalist in this country once wrote that if there was any mistake made in the past by the Church in Nigeria, it was our lack of intervention in the nation’s societal fabric

Over the years, many people have asked me why we do The Platform. A good number of people thought maybe there was an underlying political motive. Let me state categorically; there wasn't then and there isn’t any now.
The Church i.e. the Body of Christ consist of different members with diverse roles united under the headship of Christ. As the human body has various organs carrying out specific assignments so does Paul say there is diversity in the Body of Christ. (1 Cor 12: 5,6)
5 And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord.

6 And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God, which worked all in all.
The Platform is not a believer’s meeting neither is it primarily an evangelistic tool to get people born-again though it may serve that purpose in some unconventional ways that results in the individual being reborn. The Platform simply has the prophetic function of preservation.
The Bible says we are the salt of the earth. Salt preserves and in some instances, helps to stop or at least slow down the decaying process. Whatever we do and however we pray, it is inevitable that this present world being under divine judgment will cease to exist one day. God, to minimize the impact of this eventuality has placed His Church to act in one of its functions as the salt of the earth so that the process of corruption and moral decay is held back.
