The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has said he is not proud of his past life before encountering God.
He made the statement while preaching on day five of the Holy Ghost Congress 2025 at the Redemption City along the Lagos–Ibadan Expressway in Ogun State on Saturday.
According to him, many people would not have believed he could become a pastor.
“Do you think there is anybody in your family who is too far gone that God cannot save his soul? Do you think there is anybody that God cannot turn into a great vessel unto honour?” he asked.
The 83-year-old clergyman said many people never thought he could be saved, let alone go on to lead a church.
“I don’t have time to give you several examples, but the man talking to you right now, many people never thought I could be saved. Even if I was saved at all, they never thought I could be a pastor,” Adeboye said.
Reflecting on his past, he added, “You don’t know who is in front of you. I’m not proud of my past; if one can be bad, I was bad.”
He said his story shows that no one is beyond redemption and urged worshippers not to give up on anyone.
