The founder of Jesus Pentecostal Ministry, Prophet Thunder has caused controversy after he opened up on his source of wealth.
In a video sighted by YEN.com.gh on TikTok, the outspoken man of God, who was speaking in an interview on Kingdom FM, admitted that his financial success could partly be attributed to the church.
Delving into detail, he confessed that he invested a part of the money he received from congregants in real estate, a move that has greatly benefited him.
Now, he admitted he is well-to-do and no longer depends on the money of his church members for survival.
“If it was not for the church money, I would not have been able to invest in the real estate business. I used part of the money to develop the church, and I also realised that I cannot always depend on church members so I use part of that money to do something valuable for myself and my family.
“If my mother wanted me to become a lawyer, because I chose to become a man of God, I have beneffited more than I would have become a lawyer.” he said with vigour.
At the time of writing the report, the video had raked in over 6000 likes and 300 comments.
