TB Joshua Accused Of Lying About Abuja Bomb Prophecy

Controversial Nigerian religious leader TB Joshua has been accused of lying about having ‘prophesied’ about the Abuja bomb blast which claimed scores of lives.

TB Joshua released a video claiming to have predicted this event in 2013.

Now a group called TB Joshua Watch has come out with what it claims to be proof that he in fact lied about this.

It says:

We have managed to track down the unedited version of this prophecy, given on the 10th November 2013. As usual, a critical aspect of the prophecy has been edited out (see the bold text).
Listen to me, my people in Nigeria. Once again, take note of this: Our security should be vigilant. I am seeing a very big strike — explosion. Towards the end of this month, or the middle of next month they should take care of Abuja, capital.

Based on this, the bomb was meant to happen towards the end of November and the middle of December. It happened on the 14th April.
But he predicted a bombing in Abuja, and one happened! Isn’t that enough?
No! Prophecies are words from the all knowing, all powerful, omnipresent, omniscient God. Real prophecies are not 5 months wrong with their dates. Real prophecies glorify God, not the prophet. Real prophecies bring people to repentance. TB Joshua’s prophecy does none of this, and due to the current situation in Nigeria it was certain to “come true” given enough time. This “prophecy” was given on November the 10th. Just one day before on November the 9th, Reuters reported that “Intelligence available indicates that the terrorists were in the process of finalizing plans to carry out simultaneous suicide attacks in Abuja and Kano” (source). As usual, all TB Joshua was doing was reporting the news, dressed up as prophecy.
