I have respect for oyedepo. God has used him to do a lot great things for his Kingdom. He founded two universities in Nigeria with facilities comparable to what is obtainable outside the shore of this country and he has plans to build another one in Ghana.
His achievement alone is enough for anyone to swallow whatever he says as the ultimate truth coming from God.
In as much as I believe in giving to the church,the idea that a Christian must tithe is one that even Bishop oyedepo will not convince me to accept. It is obvious that such practice were done away with all the other loads of practices recorded in the old testament.
The only giving acceptable and recorded in the new testament is free will donation. Any other giving is nothing but manmade.
However those who feel they must tithe are free to do so but saying that those who don't tithe are cursed and going to hell is nothing but madness.
you've said it all,

Pay attention to the people you listen to. Jesus didn't die to have you subject yourself to this kind of demonic teaching. I feel sorry for Pastor Adefarasin's followers who believe this doctrine of tithing.
The scriptures are titheocentric "God created the universe, he took a tithe the milky way. God created the milky way, he took a tithe the galaxy, our galaxy. God created the galaxy, he took a tithe our solar system. God created the solar system, he took a tithe planet earth. God created planet earth, he took a tithe Isreal. God created Isreal, he took a tithe Jerusalem the city of David. God created Jerusalem, he took a tithe the temple. God created the temple, he took a tithe the holies of holies God created the holies of holies, he took a tithe the mercy seat. God created all species of being, he took a tithe the family of God which is comprised of angels, the living and the dead in christ. God created the family of God, he took a tithe Israel. God created Israel, he took a tithe Levi God created humanity, he took a tithe the church God created the church, he took a tithe the eldership. God created the eldership, he took a tithe the Apostles. God created the church, he took a tithe the head of the church Christ. Jesus Christ was a tithe carrying a tithe to the tithe the mercy seat " I don't know if this is metaphysics or titheology

Tithing is by choice, not by force. Nobody can force you to pay tithe.... Yes! individuals are successful, but destiny differs and different sources to make wealth. The clergy is saying what's he believes in
yemmight:
A lot of successful individuals that i know who dont give tithe. Instead of being beggars, they have remained givers. A lot of emphasis on tithes in Nigeria.

If you tithe and you don't have increase it falls to two things. God is a fraud or your Pastor is a fraud.

Since God cannot be a fraud, then automatically your pastor is a fraud.

you already have a mindset about tithing and Pastors..... If I prove from the Bible why one should pay tithe, that wouldnt change your perception ...No need wasting time trying to convince you. Less that 10percent of church attendees pay their tithe, as low as 5percent in some congregation, so none of the ministries doing well across the world rely on tithes in the first place.

Nice that at least you regard us as brilliant rather than just bad mouth us as arm chair critics.

That said, it is ok that you insist on giving 10% of your income to these religio-bisuness organizations ran by pastorpreneurs.

What is not ok is for the so called pastors to so defend this tithe doctrine so so much without offering ONE SINGLE biblical verse to back up their claims. Freeze gave us the Deuteronomy verse and a few more yet not one pastor that has spoken on this matter has gone anywhere beyond the Malachi quote.

Facts are that there is no evidence in the bible of Jesus paying or collecting tithe, none that the early apostles collected or paid tithe and no evidence from contemporary materials that anybody collected or paid tithe. These whole tithing eish is a new age addition to Christianity and it came right about the time the Catholic exchequer was emtying due to papal over-involvement in European wars and politics. The church then introduced many odd doctrines for fund raising including selling indulgences, paid prayers to remit souls from purgatory, tithe etc.

You may be so proud to loose your 10% yea, just as the MMM investors were so so proud to place help and get help...at the end of it all, you are a looser and a proud one for that matter.

And what has more than 30yrs of millions of Nigerians paying Tithes done for the Country? Cos one of God's criteria for paying Tithes is you will be called a Blessed Nation, is Nigeria called that? Apart from funding 4 private Jets and Universities members cant attend how has paying Tithes benefited members of his congregation? You have more beggars in Nigeria where they pay Tithes than Europe and America where they don't. These are the Money changers that Christ chased out of the Temple cos money is the only thing on their mind. They will say and Coin all types of LIES to continue their lavish lifestyle. Back it up with the Bible ans they fall like pack of Cards. See how small DaddyFreeze is making all of them show their true colors. The Association of Nigerian Theologians has finally released a statement on this and they said Freeze is right and Tithes is not for Christians so you have all failed your congregation woefully. Shameless Old men that are selling the Gospel of Christ

Some people believe in tithing, and are at peace with that. They believe steadfastly it works for them. Good for them.
Some don't believe in tithing, and they feel it's never worked for them. Also good for them.
Its all about choices.
Nobody is going to hell for not tithing, and I've never heard any preacher say that (i know some probably have, but ive never heard it).
But the most important of all is for us to do charity. Help the needy. Find a cause and put your all into it. Is your passion or sympathy with orphans? Is it with indigene students who can't pay school fees?, Is it with the sick? Many need your help in hospitals, is it in rehabilitation of drug users and prostitutes? They abound all around you. Choose one and make an impact.
What is however distasteful are christians shouting tithes are being paid to rogues, yet dont pay any, and yet won't still help those around them.
Let your life reflect the Christianity, not Judaism btw.
For christians, no 1 and all other commandments and teachings of Christ is love. If you dont love your neighbor whom you see, feel, touch don't even bother to claim to love God who you cant see... na Jesus talk am o.
Christmas is coming folks, a reminder of who you are. Its easy to forget. Let it show.

The best comment so far! Nice insights bro.

On the contrary those who tithe are the ones in self-deception and at risk of OT curse of partially fulfilling the Law.

Concerning what you said about the New testament having No drop of the mention or command on tithing..Pls read Jesus words to Some group of Pharisee in Matthew 23:23.

And again, Bishop is adresing born again Christians, He wasn't saying this in a crusade but in a church.

Tithing for Christians is a Covenant obligation, Do it joyfully and enjoy the dividend, vice versa.

As an ordained Pastor, I believe in imploring and teaching people about giving generally and not to build on a faulty foundation.

I've heard some folks say if you don't pay your tithes, ur life will be tithe: i dont agree with that. As a matter of fact, u might be the richest Christians from the human viewpoint fir having even tot of paying ur tithes, but true riches are not far form those that pay their tithe..U r far from the covenant blessing of those that do pay their tithes.
Thanks

He built those universities with tithe money yet majority of those who payed can't send their children to those universities. Sad reality with our pastors.
