Mike Bamiloye, the president of Mount Zion Film Ministries, has taken to social media to share his last moment with famous gospel film actor and producer Moses Korede Are, widely known as Baba Gbenro, who died at age 65.
TheNewsGuru.com (TNG) reports that Baba Gbenro died yesterday, November 14, after a prolonged battle with liver disease.
Confirming his death, Bamiloye, in a post via his official Facebook account while describing late Baba Gbenro’s last moments, said the late actor was telling him on the phone while being taken to the clinic that his sickness should not stop him from getting called to movie production locations.
He added that the sudden death of Are should be a reminder to everyone that no one knows when his/her time will be up.
He wrote: “When a person has laboured during the day in office, he would go home after work to go and rest.
“Dr. Korede Are has gone home to rest after finishing his work in the office.
“Our Employer in this Vineyard is Jesus Christ. He alone knows our Closing Time at work.
“My Closing Time at work is different from your Closing Time at work.
“But only Jesus Christ, our Employer knows when to tell us: IT IS CLOSING TIME.
“Baba Korede Are, a hard working Vineyard worker has closed for the day.
“His Master told him: IT IS TIME TO CLOSE FROM WORK.
“We were working together, when the Master suddenly called him and said: KOREDE, COME OVER HERE, IT IS TIME TO COME HOME.
“We were on Location of ABEJOYE season 8, we did not know he was rounding off his assignment in the Vineyard.
“He was on Film Location of ABATTOIR 5, we never knew he was rounding off.
“The Lesson for us all is:
“When will the Master call you to come Home and say: IT IS CLOSING TIME.
“Baba Korede is a very highly dedicated Man of God, a Humble drama minister.
“But he has finished his portion of work.
“He has gone honestly to rest from series of Movie Shoots and learning of many lines:
“When he was been taken to the hospital and we werw talking on phone, he said:
“Please, greet my friend for me. Pmease, Daddy, I will be well, dont let this discourage you from calling me on Film Location o!”
“He didn’t know he had shot his last Movie and had gone on his last Movie Location.
“In Heaven, he has seen the glory of his Master he had longed to see.
“He has now met His Master he has worked for all his life.”
Evangelist Bamiloye however added that Are’s death is not a loss, but a gain for heaven.
“WE DID NOT LOSE HIM, NO!
“Heaven has gained him.
“He has gone to rest.
“He Died here and Woke up there eternally.
“Halleluyah,“
he concluded.
