The question of whether Obinim is a ‘real’ man of God or not (is there any real man of God?) is a timeless debate that would not be resolved anytime soon, but his camp is not sitting back to let the conversation get away from them.
Taking to his usual medium, Obinim’s aide Joseph Osei Oppong Brenya said people continue to believe Obinim is fake just for the fact that he performs difficult to fathom miracles.
Continuing to harp on the never ending ‘Obinim is Jesus’ theme, Brenya said that the son of God performed spectacular miracles in his time and that did not mark him out as a false prophet.
“They think Christianity is just only teachings, so if u perform miracles, you are fake. Why did Jesus walk on the water, was he trying to show off?” Brenya wrote on Facebook.
“Why did Jesus tell his disciples to pick a coin from the mouth of a fish, was he showing off? No! but to prove the powers of God to the unbelievers what God can do”
In other news, lawyer and hunger strike afficionado, Maurice Ampaw, has also affirmed the authenticity of Bishop Obinim. Speaking during an appearance at IGWC, he said that Obinim is a messenger from God and anyone who goes against him would suffer the wrath of the Lord.
