Renowned South Korean Christian preacher, Dr. David Yonggi Cho, passed on today, September 14, 2021 at age 85. His death has drawn reactions across the world. Cho touched many lives with his inspiring and educative teaching.
One of such persons who felt the impact of the preacher while he was alive is the General Overseer of The Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye. Adeboye took to his social media page to celebrate the life and times of the late revered preacher.
He posted: ‘’Several years ago, I visited South Korea because I heard of a man who had the largest Church in the world. He had a congregation of half a million people. By the time I visited him, he had an auditorium that could take approximately fifty thousand people. He was having seven services on Sundays.
‘’I heard him saying in the service that we attended telling the members who came one Sunday to please not come back next Sunday so that those who could not come last Sunday can come next Sunday.
‘’I said God, so you can do this? Some years ago, I returned to South Korea. I had a meeting with the same man. The first time I was there, people like me could not come near the office. But this time around, I went to his office at his invitation. When we met, he said I have heard of you. Will you please pray for me?
‘’Till we meet again on the resurrection morning. Rest in God’s presence Pastor Dr. David Yonggi Cho.’’
