looking freshly anointed.
The picture you see is that of a cherub, who has just arrived from the
heavens with a message for the people and would be back there soon
after.
Once he starts to preach, the congregation is overwhelmed with the awe
he exudes. Because this is all they know about him, some followers
believe that is all about the pastor.
Ask some Christians and they will bet their life savings that their
pastors have never visited the toilet, not to talk of having sex.
Where on earth do they have the time for such things, they seem to
assert in illusion.
They base their judgement on the fact that usually, a pastor is seen
praying, preaching or counselling; so the average congregant believes
he must be a super being, who never answers to any call of nature -
especially sex.
The pastor is perhaps the most misunderstood and over-rated being on
earth today.
He is rated as a semi-god, incapable of enjoying the pleasures that
life presents him. This is so because he rarely talks to his adherents
about other areas of his life.
Saturday Metro asked some pastors and pastors' wives if they have
erotic feelings and sexual closeness with their spouses like other
people.
They said the illusion that pastors don't have sex life only lies in
the minds of few ignorant congregants.
"Sex is a beautiful gift from God within the marriage context. It is
not possible for my husband not to have sex. He feels the same way
other men feel because he is human. It is the food of our marriage
just as food is to the body. We make it a regular affair because the
absence of it can negatively affect our relationship and even his work
as a pastor," said Pastor (Mrs.) Kemi Olofinkua of the New Anointing
Deliverance Church, Anifowose, Ikeja, Lagos.
She said that both she and her husband do not take sex for granted
because starving one another could cause a scandal, especially if not
properly managed.
She said that she seldom turned down her husband's invitation because
strange women would willingly offer themselves if allowed.
Olofinkua said, "People who think pastors don't have sex must be
funny. No matter the level of anointing, a pastor needs his wife at
home. The difference between a pastor and other men is that he can
cope whenever his work demands that he abstains from sex.
"But it is dangerous to make him burn with desire for sex without
satisfying it with his wife. If this happens, he could be pushed out
into the waiting arms of many others because pastoral work usually
endears pastors to people - men and women. As a pastor's wife, I don't
take my husband's sexual need for granted. When he beckons, no matter
how tired I am, I don't turn him down."
Similarly, Pastor Mrs. Shade Toyin-Kehinde said it is a fallacy to
think or say that pastors don't have sex with their wife
