The no. 1 reason why CAC is unique:

CAC: The First Pentecostal Church That Revolutionized Nigerian Christianity

Christ Apostolic Church (CAC) holds the distinction of being Nigeria’s first Pentecostal church, not just in name but in foundational influence. CAC was at the forefront of introducing Pentecostal elements that shaped modern Christianity in Nigeria. Unlike the early missionary churches that leaned towards Western liturgical practices, CAC embraced a faith-centered, spirit-driven approach, characterized by fervent prayer, divine healing, prophecy, and an unwavering reliance on the power of the Holy Spirit.

From its inception, CAC was known for its radical stance against traditional African religious practices. Early believers were not passive in their faith; they actively challenged idolatry, burned fetishes, and confronted spiritual forces that held people in bo***ge. This boldness set CAC apart as a movement of power and transformation, demonstrating a practical application of the gospel that resonated with many Nigerians seeking deliverance and miracles.

Beyond its revival roots, CAC institutionalized the Pentecostal experience, setting a precedent for other churches that followed. It introduced a structured system of prophetic ministry, deliverance services, and healing crusades that would later become hallmarks of Nigerian Pentecostalism. The church’s emphasis on Holy Spirit baptism, speaking in tongues, and spiritual warfare made it a template for the explosion of Pentecostal churches that emerged in later decades.

As Nigeria’s first Pentecostal church, CAC was more than a religious institution—it was a movement that redefined Christianity in Africa. Its legacy continues to shape Pentecostalism today, as many of its core teachings and practices have been adopted by countless churches across the country and beyond.

19/02/2025

I never knew I would become the General Evangelist, I did not give my life to Christ because of Evangelism or positions in the church, I was a member of the Baptist church before I met Christ at a great CAC revival in Osogbo, (led by Prophet T O Obadare). So I did not stop attending CAC since then because It was a bible cultured lifestyle, You pray till something happen.

One remarkable night; "You are to judge if this was mercy, grace or luck or whatever you think happened to me," For me to encounter God and Apostle Ayo Babalola in the spiritual realm that manifested physically immediately.

It was indeed a night of POWER ENCOUNTER for me as the youths of the CAC Araromi where I worshiped back then in Osogbo town were observing a 9-day vigil for all the youth. On the last day, there was a heavy downpour that night to the extent of flooding. It was not safe, there was a total blackout while lightenings from thunders were my only means to see. I left the house that night for the church in the midst of the heavy downpour.

I got to the church so late because there were no vehicles or bikes, so I had to trek, I was so happy going because the night before, the voice of God came and said our prayers had been answered, the eighth day of the vigil people manifested in the Holy Spirit, as a youth it was powerful, people prophecy, spoke in tongues and deliverance was on all of us. It was glorious.

So on getting to the church, the security man saw me and was not happy because I had come for a vigil that had been cancelled due to the heavy rain. He was sad and lamented why I had to risk coming through a heavy downpour, at that time of the day and I explained that I trekked, he knew the only option was for me to sleep in the church. He even compelled me and planned to give me a torchlight and said I should go back home than sleep in the church. So I told him I would sleep because I already told people at home I was going for the last day of the vigil, so we came to an agreement.

Lo and behold, as I lay on the altar to pray and relax, An elderly man and some men, I was sure I saw three people appeared unto me and the older man asked me, "Where are the other youth members?" I could not respond because the POWER of God had already overshadowed both my physical and spiritual being. I was not dreaming but I could also know I was not alone and those I saw were not members of the church, So I asked why they were there and I told them due to the heavy rain the vigil as been cancelled.

Then, the oldest was holding a bottle of oil in His hand and He said to me, 'Kneel, we have an assignment for you,' I was forced to ask who they are, He said 'I am Jesus, Ayo Babalola, and Samson Akande'. I was so shocked and knelt and Jesus gave the oil to Apostle Ayo Babalola and he anointed me and they prayed for me and I fell down and slept off.

Later I think the security man heard the sound of my fall and rushed to check and I woke up, I saw the oil on my body physically, the security man asked if I brought oil or where I saw oil this much, he checked if I have broken the oil around the altar but he also saw there was no oil.

This marked the beginning of the manifestation of the POWER of God in me, I was so ready for evangelism, I was hungry to pray, I was hungry to study my bible, I was hungry to be in His presence. Till date I never knew I would enter the shoes of Apostle Ayo Babalola, all my steadfastness was to be a catechist until when I go out for evangelism and people will gather to listen, miracles and the signs of ministry were everywhere until God raises that small boy in Omifunfun, A Story for another day.

It has been written that, "And those He predestined, He also called; those He called, He also justified; those He justified, He also glorified."

On the last day some people will be judged not because of what they did, but because of what they didn't do. Everyone in every generation has the right to hear about the saving grace of Christ. Every Christian should be able to say to God that 'here I am, send me.' We are to arise and shine by telling people about Jesus Christ. We can't be blamed for past generation or next generation, but our generation. God will hold us responsible for what we failed to do in our generation. The fact is that the world is in darkness.There two classes or camp of people in the world: the camp of the Egyptian and camp of Israelites. While the Israelites were brazing in the light (Exodus 14), the Egyptian were cured in darkness. The church represents the Israelites. We are the light of the world. The church has the light, the world has the darkness and that is why we have to be committed to evangelism.

MAY THE LORD GRANT YOU THE PASSION AND GRACE FOR EFFECTIVE AND FRUITFUL EVANGELISM IN JESUS' NAME !
