I look forward to when I will hobble into the church with my walking stick and I hope to live for at least one hundred and twenty years. She is not dreaming of killing me-she is the flesh of my flesh and bone of my bones, the wife of my youth and the mother of my lovely four children. I share a beautiful life with my wife Margaret, at least as beautiful as my human nature and God’s grace in my life can make it.

You know, here in Edo land, I do not know about you and where you come from, but here in Edo land, where I am from, when a man dies, the wife is He did not invest so much in me only to hand me over to the devil to fulfil his dark and unholy idiosyncrasies. God has not given the key of the vault in which he has hidden me to any man or devil. Many have tried to hurt me spiritually and physically to no avail.

That message was another evidence that as controversial as he might have Are you afraid of gain? Why are you afraid of death? How he was to depart when his time was over and that was exactly what happened on the day he died at the ripe young age of 59 years and 6 months.ĭeath”.he kept on shouting that day as I watched 'For me to live is Christ, for me to die is gain' and he asked. What many do not know is that he actually described in vivid terms

He continues to speak loudly even in death. In my little life as a Christian, I have tried to practice everything I saw in my Bible, down to laying hands on the living and the dead because heard him and read him. That's why if you have not heard me talk about him, I can be sure to say that you have never heard me. Every book he ever wrote and the ones that were written about him has formed my Christian ideologies. I have read about him from birth to death. No man has ever challenged me unto practical Christianity than this man. It's 21 years that the icon and ambassador of the gospel of Christ to the world, Benson Idahosa went to be with the Lord.
