Archaeological findings show that the real Jesus looks like this

Abi1985:
Since the time I was born, I have never seen a pastor carry gun and force person to give offerings or tithe.

So why are churches getting bad rep? No be by force to give, if you do not want to give, then do not give. After all, na your own money, so it is up to you to give or not to give. If you feel pressure or you are reluctant to give, please do not give at all.

If they talk sow a seed of 10,0000 naira or 50 naira, and you do not have or you do not want to give, do not stress yourself at all. Give what you can give easily and cheerful and if you do not want to, then don't.

Pastor can use words to persuade someone to give. At the end of the day, it is up to individuals to decide to give or not. So leave the Pastors and let them be.

If Pastor fly private jet, well good for him. If he use body guards, good for him. The body guards are getting paid and the private jet is not free.

SeriouslySense:
I have already stated clearly how it is, the rest is left to you, but what i can say, is that, the church i attend do not ask for such. The main Emphasis is in living in Christ not in the world. And Christians are under no obligation to give tithes.

fuckboys:
you know we had our owns gods before the white men came?

You're still suffering from mental colonization.

donbenie:
Lol..
Under the White Man's mentorship..
Christianity went from being burned at the stakes,for being a Christian..
To burning Unbelievers at the stakes, for questioning Christian doctrines..
The History of The White Man's religion..

I am ashamed Africans debate these topics... I really am shocked it is happening.

Pls those of us who have visited alfas and shrines(yes our ethnic traditional gods) know that you do not go empty handed you must drop something for the gods... so why the hate on pastors who collect tithe and offerings? It is a no-brainer. GOD bless you

QUESTION- will a man solve your LONG TERM problem and you would not THANK HIM WITH TANGIBLE THINGS?
See, pastors don't eat from tithe and offering, they eat from solving major problems. I have seen a man at the point of death go to one of these criticized pastors for healing, he got healed and his THANKS GIVING OFFERING was a NEW CHURCH BUILDING with MOBILE SECURITY FOR THE PASTOR WHO HEALED HIM..... Now yeye people will come and say PASTOR IS DRIVING BENZ, MEMBERS ARE TREKKING... if the members could solve the problems pastors are solving will they still be trekking? People just open their mouths....WAAAAAA and vomit venom.

Now for protection, there is no strong herbalist without protection, I do not mean charms, I mean physical protection..... Don't come and comment rubbish, I can mention names oh.... I have seen them and I know them. Now the bible.... JESUS was at risk daily of being arrested or killed.... so his disciples decided to arm themselves with swords and Jesus permitted them- Luke 22:38- scriptural proof....

So Pastors with body guard and bullet proof cars should not be a big deal.... when you genuinely HELP people to rise from ZERO TO GREATNESS... you will be hated, physically and spiritually.... so if you do not protect yourself, you will die cheap like a fool. God protects us by giving us WISDOM... and POWER and INSTRUCTIONS.

Your physical protection is your responsibility, when it is beyond you, GOD STEPS IN.... yes... there are laws to this thing. You can't be preaching health, telling people to take care of their health and you are careless with yours. It's the same thing. We are in a wicked world.... that kills its heros and calls good as evil and celebrates evil as good.

Any so called Man of God who is not hated in this world is actually FAKE. He whom the devil sponsors will not be hated by people.... simple. Many of our musicians are in cultts, and boldly do not deny it YET they are LOVED by everyone.... HOW CAN PEOPLE NOT SEE THAT THIS IS ALL IN THE MATRIX....


The darkness in this world is soooo much, chai... we BLAME THE PRESIDENT yet it is our local people in small offices that are so corrupt, BUHARI has NEVER deliberately cheated anyone, he is just a figure head collecting all the blame, meanwhile it is HIDDEN PEOPLE AND WE THE PEOPLE OURSELVES that are fantastically corrupt.


If a man can solve my problems today, I would give him my first salary... no one cares the source of the power these days, as long as it works. Many pastors have abused power and made married women their "DAUGHTERS" and made them rebel against their lawful husbands.... if CAN, PFN and other bodies were functional, these pastors would be disciplined and sanctioned but sadly in NIGERIA, it is a FREELANCE STUFF to own a church... it is do as you please because they lie and say ONLY GOD CAN JUDGE. This is why I do not support any MAN OF GOD or become a fan of religion. Because the GREATEST MAN OF GOD is still a man and very subject to the same temptations as any other MAN.

HERBALISTS I PERSONALLY KNOW, SLEEP WITH THEIR FEMALE CLIENTS.... yet it does not enter news as scandals.... but once a pastor does, it becomes a big deal... Many alfas have done worse yet YOU DO NOT HEAR IT SPREAD LIKE THE PASTORS stories.... see, this is very indicative that it is not normal.


IN A BALANCED SOCIETY, any healer or herbalist or pastor will be exposed for scandals... BUT in africa because we fear the gods rather than GOD, we focus on castigating pastors... as if they too are above mistakes or are not human. If E PAIN YOU, TRY TO BE A PASTOR AND SEE IF ANYONE WILL BE HELPED BY YOU.

I believe alot in BALANCE, pls let's be guided. I do not believe in DADDY G.O or idol worship of any man... BUT I KNOW LIFE IS SPIRITUAL and when SPIRITS HELP A MAN there is a big difference and when people are HELPED they SHOW GRATITUDE IN MANY WAYS.

donbenie:
Lol..
I'm not here to teach you history..
Christians were persecuted and exterminated to almost extinction..
Until a Roman Emperor adopted it as the state religion..
Do your research..
Or why do you think the main offshoot of the original church is called the Roman Catholic Church?

Righthussle:
Hide your face in shame abeg. Pulpit bandit. Why use armed body guards and bulletproof cars when the white man's god you call " almighty " can protect you ?

Heaven is this , heaven is that, there are many mansions there, you'll enjoy everlasting life when you die yet you no wan die go enjoy the everlasting life. Unknown gunmen want to send you to that your beautiful heaven quick, you run go buy bulletproof car. Who you dey fool ? I no blame una. Soon everybody will know the truth that religion is built on lies. Religion is a scam.

Ubenedictus:
the original church is called "Catholic Church" not roman catholic church, it was the anglicans who added "roman" to it because the anglicans wanted to also claim to be catholic.

there was already the catholic chuch ling before it became a state religion in rome

paxonel:
there are no bases for intimidation, they should just give better reasons to give

Odidigboigbo:
Neither did Jesus condemned tithing either. Tithing is not compulsory for any believer. If you believe in it, give. If you don't believe not give. No one will kill you nor stop you from coming to church if you don't tithe. And those that don't believe should allows those that believe in it to do their things in peace.

Theunbothered:
So why are these pastors always demanding cash for blessing and breakthrough?

wildernessVoice:
I sense Bandits and kidnappers here.
Why shouldn't a renowned Man of God not use Bullet Proof cars and armed security. Pastors has become targets of assassination by enemies of the faith and kidnapping to collect money meant for God's work.
Jesus commanded us to watch and pray.
Nehemiah built the broken down walls of Jerusalem with Prayer and sword on the other hand.
Peter was carrying sword following Jesus. When Peter wanted to use the sword, Jesus told him to keep it for a time like this. Jesus didn't tell Peter to throw away the sword.
This is the time Bible command sell your garment and buy sword.
Haven't you read that God's people perish for lack of knowledge, particularly for a time like this.
Get Sense...!

Pastor using private jets with congregants funds is misappropriation of church funds. The money is to cater for the whole members and church, otherwise it's a private business, and the congregants are being fleeced.

Nolevel666:
I always ask these religious fools:

If you were a “God” as powerful as being able to create this wonderful universe as powerful and vast as it is, would you even have the time to create one “hell fire” to roast minuscule beings called humans because they don’t obey your “commandments” like robots?

They become silent.

If i were a “God” and i do such a thing, it will mean i am either a fool with no other reasonable thing to use my power for OR i have an Ego problem.

Only a childish “God” will even have time for humans

You support the anomaly?

Am not a pastor, but I know what's wrong from right.

where in the bible, I will glad to know.

Are people forced to pay tithe ? Ode!
Na church money dey enter your eye... Thief

ariesbull:
you sound like a bitter Christian

jaxxy:
If he's using his personal money yes good for him by if he's using the money he made u give for the church work to flex then NO that Is totally wrong.

Paul who started churches told the Christians of the early church, "I'm not here to take advantage of u even though I can as ur leader/pastor , I do my own hand work as a tent makers and I am content with what I have."

That is how pastors should behave and leave church funds alone. its not ur personal piggy bank.

Jesus didn't take money from his disciples or people to build mansion for Mary or Joseph. They were carpenters.
