Read your bible more bro
2 Corinthians 8:9
KJV:For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.

This does not make sense. You think they rich they are talking about here is money? It is not. It might be richness in wisdom or any other rich. The same Bible said: it will be easier for a needle to thread through a horses eye than for a rich man to see the kingdom of God".

And we only blame government of not empowering us. let us retrace our problems back to the root. the church
Not the church. The wolves in sheep clothing. U know, if 'Christians' could be extracted from Christians it would give confused social media commentors the true meaning of the word. undecided

Church is not our problem. It is however a problem. All these tithes and offerings and all other rubbish people give in church can be used for better things in the society

Can you re-read what you wrote and tell me if there is any meaning in it.

Read your bible more bro


2 Corinthians 8:9

KJV:For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.

Leme paste d complete version 4rm d same KJV

8 I speak not by commandment, but I am testing the sincerity of your love by the diligence of others. 9 For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, that you through His poverty might become rich.

10 And in this I give advice: It is to your advantage not only to be doing what you began and were desiring to do a year ago; 11 but now you also must complete the doing of it; that as there was a readiness to desire it, so there also may be a completion out of what you have. 12 For if there is first a willing mind, it is accepted according to what one has, and not according to what he does not have.

13 For I do not mean that others should be eased and you burdened; 14 but by an equality, that now at this time your abundance may supply their lack, that their abundance also may supply your lack—that there may be equality. 15 As it is written, “He who gathered much had nothing left over, and he who gathered little had no lack.”

It's always good as a xtain 2 read d whole passage rather dan quote a. Particular verse. It's a sign of false teaching.
It's clearly stated dat d aim of d church was 4 equality in times of need. Dey all contributed for each other so dat no one lacked.

Also deut 26:12
[b]King James Bible
When thou hast made an end of tithing all the tithes of thine increase the third year, which is the year of tithing, and hast given it unto the Levite, the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow, that they may eat within thy gates, and be filled;

NOTE- Der was a year 4 tithe wch was used 2 cater 4 d needy.

Also deut 14:23-26

then exchange your tithe for silver, and take the silver with you and go to the place the Lord your God will choose. 26 Use the silver to buy whatever you like: cattle, sheep, wine or other fermented drink, or anything you wish. Then you and your household shall eat there in the presence of the Lord your God and rejoice.

D tithe wasn't meant to be invested by d church it's was meant 2 be given 2 d levites(d original chosen pple 4rm God-jesus' father was from David, his mom 4rm d tribe of levi)
And we wer supposed 2 party in d presence of God not drop it and go home

Sorry your write up is incomplete if you didn't mention Prophet Shepherd Bushiri...

He is richer that Uebert Angel though Angel is his spiritual mentor.

Shepherd Bushiri has 2 Universities just like Oyedepo in addition to an oil well, several gold deposits, real estate, hotels, an airplane, helicopter, social media network and farms.

But take it from me, some of these men are greedy and coveteous.

I asked my friend today, have you seen a modern day pastor who has just ONE of his MEMBERS who is richer than the PASTOR ?
He said NO.

If you are their member come show yourself, they will covet your car, your business, house, if you ain't careful, your wife..

They keep quoting $15m on the bearded guy every year as if his membership doesn't grow.

No mind bloggers.

But one thing that will keep his wealth low is that he doesn't have church branches. No school or University.

His church has only one HEADQUARTERS.. No Abuja or PH branch network..

Its pathetic that most people must give to these men when the givers cannot even feed well.

I cannot forget the account balances of one pastor I viewed many years back. Naira, Dollar, Pound and Euro. Same for his wife and all his children.

He receives 10 to 30 deposits every day from sheeples. Most Nigerians are mugu.

I was once a mugu too. They brainwash people that if you stopped giving them, you become poor. And that if any good thing happens to you, its because you gave to them.
