THE RESTORATION PROJECT: A DIVINE MANDATE FOR CHRIST APOSTOLIC CHURCH

Restoration Project

The mandate is urgent, the call is clear: Christ Apostolic Church must be restored! This is not a denominational ambition, nor the agenda of a fewit is a divine assignment, echoing from eternity into time. Like Nehemiah with the broken walls of Jerusalem, like Ezra with the defiled temple, like Daniel in exile pleading for mercy, every faithful member of CAC must rise with urgency to restore what has been fractured.

This is the Restoration Project!

It is time to put aside our crowns—titles, positions, fame, gifts, wealth, and pride—and fall on our faces before God. The glory we chase in fragmentation cannot compare with the glory that comes from unity. Success without restoration is hollow. Growth without reconciliation is deception. The fire of revival cannot burn in the midst of division; the covenant of God rests only where His people dwell together in unity.

Let every factional leader, every stakeholder, and every faithful son and daughter of CAC remember: you are not where you are by merit alone God allowed it for His purpose. But now, that purpose demands surrendrance! Our leadership must not become a throne of resistance against unity. We are stewards, not owners. Let us step aside that Christ may be exalted again in one unified church.

God's covenant cannot be fulfilled in disunity. His Spirit will not abide with a divided body. The Christ Apostolic Church must return to its foundation: Holy Spirit, prayer, holiness, Apostolic doctrine, and selfless service. Apostasy must be confronted! Lukewarmness must be rejected. Revival must be embraced.

This is more than a structural merger it is a spiritual awakening! The world needs a restored CAC that carries fire, truth, and power. A church not known for its factions, but for its faith. Not for its titles, but for its testimony. Not for its splits, but for its Spirit.

Jesus, our Lord, humbled Himself to the cross and was exalted forever. Humility is the only way to true glory. Let us learn from Him. Let the old CAC marked by internal struggles be buried. Let a new CAC arise united in vision, voice, and virtue.

This is our joint project. This is our sacred duty. Do you support the restoration of Christ Apostolic Church? Then rise and take your place!

Together, let us rebuild. Together, let us be revived. Together, let God’s purpose for CAC be fulfilled in our generation.

A Glorious Beginning Rooted in Divine Purpose

The Christ Apostolic Church (CAC) was not born of ambition or human convenience—it was birthed in divine purpose. It arose from the ashes of spiritual hunger, forged in the furnace of prayer, holiness, and Apostolic conviction. The founding fathers, driven by an unrelenting thirst for revival, shook the spiritual landscape of their generation. They were men of deep consecration who laid down ambition and embraced the Cross.

Just like the cry of Israel in bondage reached the ears of God (Exo 3:7), so did the cries of these early saints provoked a move of heaven. CAC became a light set on a hill, radiating the Gospel across nations. But as history has often shown, wherever God plants power, the enemy sows division (Matt 13:25).

The Crises and the Cracks

The 1990 crisis did not begin as a necessity it erupted from unchecked ambition, power struggles, and a slow drift from the humble foundations laid by our spiritual fathers. Over the years, what began as a single movement has fragmented into competing factions, each laying claim to divine legitimacy.

Like Israel during the exile, we have multiplied in strange lands. We have built temples in Babylon while Jerusalem the covenant centerlies in ruins. Yet, God’s covenant with CAC has not been revoked. Even in division, His hand remains upon us, but not to endorse our disunity—rather to beckon us home (Jer 29:10-14).

Growth and expansion are not always signs of divine approval. Success built on division is not spiritual fruitfulness—it is a contradiction. Many of our actions, though wrapped in ecclesiastical language, have grieved the Spirit and mocked our heritage.

“You have a name that you are alive, but you are dead.” — Rev 3:1

What we call progress has often been ego in disguise, and what we call preservation has at times been a refusal to repent. It is time to wake up and face the truth: God is not impressed by factions, titles, wealth, or architectural grandeur. He seeks unity.

False Progress and Misplaced Success
The Present Division: A House Torn

Today, the CAC remains divided under three major factions:

The General Executive Council under Pastor S.O. Oladele

The CAC Supreme Executive Worldwide under Pastor Henry Ojo

The CAC Supreme Council under Pastor Ayodele. Yet there are many unaligned independent ones.

While all these groups have contributed to the survival of CAC in some way, none is without blame! The alterations of the church’s certificate of incorporation and other questionable decisions and actions have further deepened the crisis. But no peace can come from cover-ups. Truth is the seed of genuine unity!

“If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?” — Ps 11:3.

All parties must now return to the original certificate of incorporation, the authentic legal and historical anchor of the church. Only upon this foundation can lasting unity be rebuilt.

Before rebuilding the physical, we must restore the spiritual. Like Ezra and Nehemiah, we must first weep, fast, and confess (Ezra 9, Neh 1). Let a global season of repentance and prayer be declared across all CAC assemblies—fasting not for positions, but for purity.

This is not about one leader’s ambition it is about a body crying out for fire again. Let us return to the altar, to the upper room, to the Apostolic grace that once defined us.

“If My people, who are called by My name, shall humble themselves and pray... I will heal their land.” 2 Chr 7:14.

Spiritual Restoration Before Structural Reform

One major stumbling block to unity has been leadership—who should lead and how. But if true revival is our goal, then like Jesus:

“...He made Himself of no reputation... and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross.” — Phil 2:7–8.

Let every leader now ask: Am I willing to lay it all down for the sake of the church? Until positions are surrendered and Christ is enthroned once more, unity and restoration will remain a dream deferred.

We must declare the old crisis-produced structures dead! Let every faction dissolve into one united body under Christ. As the Holy Spirit leads, let retired, respected, and neutral spiritual elders shepherd us through a transitional period until God appoints new leadership by divine consensus, not human politics.
