“Pay careful attention to yourselves and to all the flock, in which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to care for the church of God, which he obtained with his own blood. I know that after my departure fierce wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock; and from among your own selves will arise men speaking twisted things, to draw away the disciples after them.” Acts 20:28-30
We here at ChurchWatch have followed, and documented the scandal Dr Yonggi Cho was involved in. It was not long ago that this man was found guilty of serious charges. On 20 February 2014, Cho was found guilty of tax evasion, sentenced to three years imprisonment, suspended for five years, and fined the equivalent of almost $5 million. His oldest son Cho Hee-jun was sentenced to three years imprisonment. The charges arose from Cho’s church purchasing shares from his son’s church at above market value and fraudulently claiming tax relief.
To this day, Phil Pringle continues to lie by omission, praising Yonggi Cho but neglecting to tell his church of Cho’s crimes.
David Yonggi Cho Church Fraud Investigation? (Part 6) Ps David Yonggi Cho – Convicted
“Cho was charged with causing around 13.1 billion won in damages to his church and evading approximately 3.5 billion won in taxes in the process (embezzlement as defined in the Act on the Aggravated Punishment of Specific Economic Crimes). In addition, Pastor Cho’s oldest son Cho Hee-jun, 49, former chairman of the Yeongsan Christian Culture Center, was given a three-year prison sentence and taken into custody.”
It comes to our attention that Phil Pringle has invited this false prophet to speak at C3 Church this Thursday February 25. We leave it up to our readers to decide on the appropriateness of this invitation for Yonggi Cho to speak as a church “leader” rather than as a convicted felon, (a person convicted in a court of law of a felony crime).
David Yonggi Cho is not only a false (which disqualifies him from Christianity), he also has disqualified himself as a Christian pastor. These are the requirements of a pastor:
“An overseer, then, must be above reproach, the husband of one wife, temperate, prudent, respectable, hospitable, able to teach, not addicted to wine or pugnacious, but gentle, peaceable, free from the love of money. He must be one who manages his own household well, keeping his children under control with all dignity.” 1 Timothy 3:3 (Emphasis ours.)
The things we highlighted in bold are areas he failed in relation to the financial scandal he was involved in and how he ruthlessly treated his elders. And because Cho is a swindler, why is Pringle inviting David Yonggi Cho to speak as though he is a figure of high integrity? Pringle is directly opposing Christ, His Word and His Church with this clear command in scripture:
“But actually, I wrote to you not to associate with any so-called brother if he is an immoral person, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or a swindler– not even to eat with such a one.” 1 Corinthians 5:11
And yet C3 hypocritically state “we love Jesus and people”?
C3 Church Oxford Falls stated on their instagram,

It is so clear how much, these so called “pastors”, love mammon (MONEY) and themselves, rather than our Lord Jesus God, Creator and Saviour.
AS holy week approaches and with it (the true followers of Christ), remember the sufferings, agony and pain of false accusations, injustice, and condemnation to die on the cross, like the other convicted felons who were just paying the price for their crimes. It is so sad and disturbing that the words and teachings of Jesus the Son of God and God Himself mean absolutely nothing to all these so called “pastors”.
AS JESUS SAID:
Matthew 6:20-24
19 Do not gather and heap up and store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust and worm consume and destroy, and where thieves break through and steal.
20 But gather and heap up and store for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust nor worm consume and destroy, and where thieves do not break through and steal;
21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
22 The eye is the lamp of the body. So if your eye is sound, your entire body will be full of light.
23 But if your eye is unsound, your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the very light in you [your conscience] is darkened, how dense is that darkness!
24 No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will stand by and be devoted to the one and despise and be against the other. You cannot serve God and mammon (deceitful riches, money, possessions, or whatever is trusted in).
Matthew 7:23-29
23 And then I will say to them openly (publicly), I never knew you; depart from Me, you who act wickedly [disregarding My commands].
24 So everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts upon them [obeying them] will be like a sensible (prudent, practical, wise) man who built his house upon the rock.
25 And the rain fell and the floods came and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock.
26 And everyone who hears these words of Mine and does not do them will be like a stupid (foolish) man who built his house upon the sand.
27 And the rain fell and the floods came and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell—and great and complete was the fall of it.
28 When Jesus had finished these sayings [the Sermon on the Mount], the crowds were astonished and overwhelmed with bewildered wonder at His teaching,
29 For He was teaching as One Who had [and was] authority, and not as [did] the scribes.
It is so clear, on which foundation these so called “pastors” have their houses “churches” built.
We should thank God every day for His teachings and warnings, and yes we have the obligation to warn the rest of the world about these false prophets and their lies.
I wonder whether there will be another Scam-a-thon for funds for Kong Hee’s legal costs.
Dumb sheeple have already parted with $10,000,000 for Kongvict’s legals. That’s $10 mill of cult zombies cash down the drain.
This article would have been more aptly titled:
Liar#1 invites Liar#2 to speak at C3 “Church” Oxford Falls
because both these men have proven they are incapable of opening their mouths without lies coming out.
Why would anyone want to go to a meeting at C3 to listen to a convicted felon who committed fraud against his own church members money and is a convicted tax cheat ? This meeting is all about Cho’s great leadership??? and for Pringle to represent Yonggi Cho as great respectable and honourable spiritual leader is complete joke ! P Pringle is promoting this meeting big time at C3 he continues to not disclose his mate’s (Kong Hee and Yonggi Cho) Crimes to his C3 members.
My advice to C3 members is don’t go to this meeting all you will be fed is lies and propaganda !!!
They are having an Eftpos session to put stained glass windows in Phil’s Mercedes limo I hear
I heard they were going to paint one of his beautiful artworks on the hood.
And make the gear shifter look like one of those personal signing pens he sells for $500.
Yonny and frances, yes! Pringle is blatantly merchandising the gospel. All about dollars.
