Did she pay her tithe directly to David Oyedepo? Who knows if she's even a tither. No body will crucify her if is not paying. At least let her start from her local church. They encourage their members to join home cell.

MarketDispatch:
So, why don't they say you must belong to a home cell or unit before you give tithes and offerings?

Madmohamed1:
even if he is not a member of that church, is that what the pastor Bible teaches him, to be arrogant to the people.

You too can go become a pastor and meet every need

ERockson:
You attended the church for just almost 3 years and demanding financial help based on period you've been with the church, what about pastors's children that's have been there for more than 20 years. Pastos can not help everybody approaching them for helps. Now that you are nurse and earning money how many people have you have helped financially, how many school fees have you paid for the less privileges.

My only response to you will be from the Bible 👇

Acts of the Apostles 2:44-46 NLT
[44] And all the believers met together in one place and shared everything they had. [45] They sold their property and possessions and shared the money with those in need. [46] They worshiped together at the Temple each day, met in homes for the Lord’s Supper, and shared their meals with great joy and generosity—

Even you wey never chop for three days?

Zionmdde:
As I said before, the church has a structure for welfare. Jumping your cell leader, your local pastor and running to GO isn't an orderly thing to do

I do all that church comparison of a thing. The body of christ is one

As I said Christianity and Islam are scams to black African people
One day people like you will wake up

It’s not realistic to expect all members to meet in one place when there are millions worldwide. Even in Apostle Paul’s time, how large was his church compared to modern church?

If I am sleeping with all the experience I have had in this life, I rather not wake up

And don't assume you are awake, because if we go philosophical, you will get to know that there are even no empirical data that 100% proves you were born the day you believe you were born

So let people believe what they want to believe

Amotolongbo:
3years is small?
Why didn’t the same church tell the new comers to wait for more than 3years before they start giving tithe and offerings?

Are you going to church to seek help from your Pastor??

Many of una just like to dey yarn dust, that same guy will have a rich uncle who also refused to help him ooo, but he chooses to accuse the Pastor cos na easy target

The fact is as humans, in as much as we want to help a lot of people, we can't help everyone

Sometimes sef I go dey my room dey cry say I suppose don dey help many people sef but me sef need help

Bottom line put your trust in God, Worship him and leave your pastor alone with his own wahala

Sonnobax15:
You're speaking too many grammar that doesn't hold water. Imagine going through those lengthy processes when he needed the help urgently. Honestly,if the church can't help it's members in their Time of need,I don't think there's any reason for such members to continue worshipping in that church at all.

So you fit just see your governor today and ask for help immediately and he would do it??

Nigerians are the most fuulish sets of individuals in the world

As at the time he was referencing, the church already had millions of members around the world and there would be a channel to request for welfare, except divinely ordained, you don't expect a man of such level to just dish out monies like that

You miss the point , the first place a believer should find help, comfort and satisfaction ( food ) is his local church , that’s the template the apostles set cos thats what they saw from their master jesus.

I don't know what bigger proud ignorance than believing you are awake, while others who do not tow your line of thoughts are asleep

It's not only childish but foolish

Hehehe.

Chebi I once I created a similar thread on this sometime ago but it never made it to the front page and I was even insulted by some irresponsible dimwits .

Make una dey believe in these so-called men of God wey dey feast on una gullibility

Your pastor can't help you in the times of need,but would rather refer you to pray to God who's busy minding his business in heaven to send help to you on earth. But when the same thief disguising as pastor needs help,he falls back to you who are his members, billing you to stupor

He even tried by continuing to go to church. Cuz in my own case,that was my instant full stop and why I will never go to church.

You have gained wisdom in that church, and you now understand that those miracle pastors don't care in the slightest about the welfare of their gullible flock of salary donors, provided that private jet is fueled up and ready to take the pastor and his money-grubbing wife on shopping sprees in Dubai and London.

Nigerians are ignorantly funding the lavish lifestyle of their religious leaders.


Remove tithe and offering and see what happens to them.

mr man, You need to understand Some of these Pastor have Profession/career

Pastors like Adeboye, oyedepo, olukoya .. Have good professions without church they will still Be richer than men like you

One book Dr. Olukoya wrote alone can feed him his family for life without church offering & tithe sef.

when you talk think things through 1st

And this is the same cleric that will be asking his congregation "is this government doing well?", accusing government of the same thing he is guilty of. How many members of his congregation have benefited from his wealth. Bishop are you also doing well?

I have no comment until I hear from the second party

A Nigerian nurse has recounted an emotional experience from 2016 involving renowned cleric David Oyedepo, founder of Living Faith Church Worldwide, revealing how the encounter nearly shook his faith and commitment to church attendance.

The man, identified on social media platform X as @Nrs_Danie, narrated that he had struggled for years to secure admission into the Lagos State School of Nursing, succeeding only after his fourth attempt. However, his joy was short-lived as he lacked the ₦230,000 required to pay tuition, with school authorities giving him just one month before forfeiting the admission. Eyes Of Lagos reports,

According to his account, he and his mother, who lived in Abule Egba area of Lagos, left home as early as 5 a.m. to travel to Sango Ota, Ogun State, where the church headquarters is located, hoping to seek financial assistance from the cleric.

He explained that they had been active members of the church for about three years, participating in services, prayers, and fasting programmes, which strengthened their belief that they might receive support.

They reportedly positioned themselves along the route where the bishop would pass before his morning service, waiting for an opportunity to speak with him.

When the cleric eventually arrived, the man said he and his mother rushed forward to plead for help but were stopped by security personnel.

He claimed that the bishop responded by advising them to apply for a bursary from the Lagos State Government instead.

The response, he said, left him devastated, considering the emotional and physical effort it took to gain admission after several attempts.

The nurse admitted that the incident affected him deeply and almost caused him to question his faith in God. However, he later came to the realization that religious leaders are human and that faith should be centered on God rather than individuals.

He emphasized that leaving church because of a pastor’s action would mean one’s faith was misplaced.

Despite the disappointment, he eventually completed his nursing education without financial assistance from the cleric and now works abroad as a nurse.

Reflecting on his journey, he said the experience strengthened his belief that personal faith and determination are more important than reliance on any religious figure.

You are more likely to get help in a beer palour or lounge than a church.
More people get contracts and jobs over bottles of beer than over church sermons.

Chai. See o. Religion ehn ?

I don't think I have ever heard that Oyedepo helped anyone financially who approached him from the blues. I think he has helped family members and close friends but someone he doesn't know? I don't think so.

The bishop did not say anything wrong!!

If truly she be active church members


There are right way to go about this things

ERockson:
You attended the church for just almost 3 years and demanding financial help based on period you've been with the church, what about pastors's children that's have been there for more than 20 years. Pastos can not help everybody approaching them for helps.

Now that you are nurse and earning money how many people have you have helped financially, how many school fees have you paid for the less privileges.

But pastors can collect money from everyone approaching the church for prayer, innit

Do you know that Covenant University has no scholarship and financial aid programmes

University plenty now

This statement is not beffiting a Bhuddist.
Can you tell newcomers to stop paying tithe and offerings until they have attended the church for 100 years?
You are making modern Christendom to look like sophisticated fraud.

Good one for the nurse..he took the right step..if your belief is in man...you're still a baby christian..as for these who are swallowing pills for the headache of others know this

- religion will keep growing..ask the chinese.
- God's position has not changed because of all your cho cho cho
- this who know the secret of being blessed in the house of God will continue to be blessed
- as for the noisemaker your lives will keep backtracking as you keep attacking religion.

Now read my post I never mentioned man of God. This means your focus should be on God not man.

Revelation 3:6

Young man, my heart leap for joy for you.
Your conviction in the word of God was the foundation for your quick turn around.
Nothing is impossible for anyone who is convinced of God’s capacity to effect transformation. The resultant effect became immediately felt in your paradigm shift with zero bitterness. Bitterness will kill every effort and ounce in positive step.
This is the main lesson in your write-up. Keep this up!!!
