The preacher, Dag Heward-Mills, emphasised that it is only unwise men who will go against the word of the man of God in a trending video.

"Come and slap me and see if there is oil on your hand... You are finished if you slap the anointing because the holy spirit is not like Jesus, who would tolerate all of these things. If you like, go and touch his anointed."

"Come and strike me because you don't like my preaching, and you would see what would become of you. You would not be dealing with a man but the holy spirit. God has chosen those whom he has put his anointing on. He doesn't put his anointing on everyone... You open your mouth and speak like a fool against someone who is anointed."

Bullgod blasts Dag Heward-Mills

Former artiste manager and United Showbiz pundit Bullgod shared his thoughts on Bishop Dag Heward-Mills' comments on the popular entertainment programme that was aired on April 19, 2025.

Bullgod stated that the church can spare a few Ghana cedis to pay instrumentalists and other performers in the church without breaking the bank.

"If his statement is a general one, then I am sorry to say that whatever he said was nonsense. Don't they pay him every Sunday? We have all seen his progress from where he started his church to where he is now. So what is wrong with him giving a small portion of the fortune he has to his church people for their work?"

"They are very greedy. All the pastors. Meanwhile Jesus is useless and good for nothing."

Ewuraba Papabi stated:

"Nevertheless Jesus still loves you. Even Paul who killed his people He still loved Him and showed Himself to him how much more you. Just repent from your crooked ways and don't harden your heart whiles there is still chance to repent."
