This implies that Dangote, Indimi and many other non-Christian billionaires pay tithes.

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.

God bless you for your comment.

I believe in tithing but I do not give my tithes to the church. I see my tithe as my token contribution to mankind, so I give my tithes to orphanages and needy people around me.

Sincerely yours, any Pastor that is proclaiming curses because of tithes is nothing but a desperate Pastorprenuer. If they are truly sent by God, they should know better that it is not in their power to bless or to curse. That Power only resides with God almighty to whom we all are going to return to to give account of stewardship on earth.

So I know I do not have to please any Pastor, the only Beign I need to fear and please is God. If I find favour with God, who is a pastor ( a mere mortal like me) to curse me? We should all know that Pastors pronouncements (especially those that are biblical) are very inconsequential.

I can tell you I am enjoying the favour of God. I am enjoying not because of anything I do or I am doing, I am only enjoying it ONLY because it pleases God. HE says, "I will have mercy on who I will mercy on". That is His SOVEREIGNTY over us.

PrecisionFx:



Tithing is biblical, But paying tithe with money is an evil teaching always sold by thieves to steal people's money....

Jesus till his death always shared everything he had with his followers which are the flock, Pastors n Priests today keep telling their flock to bring more n more money...

Pastors n Priests claim that they are Christians (Christ like), But when it comes to helping the flocks, They renegade.

You are either innocently ignorant or deliberately mischievous who know the truth but have chosen to partner with enemy to deceive Gods people on the truth on tithing
Your arguments are flawed.
On what basis have you concluded Pastors are not helping the flock..you mean all pastors..big big lie. In winners chapel we have welfare system through the house fellowship to cater for those members who need help.so get lost with your lies.

Tithe is 10% of one's earnings which most time is in liquid cash..and God commands it to be brought to his storehouse(the church of God)..so get lost with your lies. We know the truth and it is paying us who believe it and practice it.

Tithing is biblical and commanded by God as shown by Gods servant Bishop Oyedepo..He was preaching at Dunamis not Winners..while encouraging the brethren to continue the kingdom principles of tithing..so you that have never tithed, what is your problem..Is God forcing you, is Bishop forcing you..Abeg make I hear word.

In his words he said "if you are not a tither you end your journey as a beggar"..I believe him as my prophet and father, moreso..i believe God who commanded it. So your anger and frustration for those who tithe wont make any difference..

For those pious and religious hypocritical christians, you are free to go to heaven like lazarus did after suffering poverty on earth, but I have chosen to enter heaven like Abraham after enjoying kingdom wealth on earth. Make your choice.

If tithing is commanded by God, then the present church is not obeying it because, you have changed it.

Here’s a list of changes that the Church has unlawfully created for tithing today. None of these changes that we have made are found anywhere in scripture!!
You’ve changed When you give the tithe (Deuteronomy 26:12- The tithe was only given at certain times of the year)

Who you give it to (Nehemiah 10:38- the tithe could only go towards the Levites the poor, or festivals; not towards buildings or pastors)

Where you store it (Nehemiah 10:38 – The tithe could only go into storehouses/silos, not churches). Also, the Israelites only gave a tithe while they were in the promised land. Outside of their land whether in captivity or in the wilderness, they did not tithe.

What you give as a tithe (Deuteronomy 14:22- The tithe only consisted of food and animals)

How it was used :for parties and festivals. (Deuteronomy 14:23)
How the tithe is used (The tithe was never used for building construction or maintenance.)
Those not eligible to tithe are the Gentiles, the widows, the fatherless and the poor. Fishermen, cobblers, potters, soldiers, carpenters, tax collectors, laborers who earn wages and all other professions outside farmers and herders. Because tithe was never money.

The folks who don't pay tithe such as the likes of freeze and co should be aware their opinion is garbage and nonsense. Isn't it comic that those who don't pay tithe now have a problem with those who do.Bishop was only encouraging the brethren at Dunamis gospel to continue tithing because God commanded it.

If you don't pay tithe your opinion is nonsense and rubbish and belong to the garbage to those who pay tithe.So we don't need it.
I pay tithe based on strong personal conviction as found in the Bible and have no single regret and I stand not to be corrected..

Hebrew 7:8
And here men(God ordained priest) that die receive tithes; but there he(Jesus Christ) receiveth them, of whom it is witnessed that he liveth.

Malachi 3:10
Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of host,if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it

We see here the Lord God commanding the payment of tithes..so satanic agents should stop talking nonsense and rubbish about tithing ordained by God

So when tithes are paid by a child of God in a God ordained Church to God, in heaven Jesus also receive them..So don't let any confused fake daft confuse you as a Christian on what is commanded by God.


If you don't pay tithe, no problem afterall God is not forcing you, the pastor is not forcing you.When satanic devourers come to strike, You will not know how far because you won't know how your non tithing invited them.
bishop is a thief.

""Bishop was only encouraging the brethren"" - pls where n wen did God make oyedepo a Bishop....
Cuz he just opened a church years back n then anointed himself as Bishop.



""(God ordained priest)"" - Can u give me any evidence that God ordained Oyedepo


Meanwhile the whole book of Malachi is a warning for the priests. Malachi 3 vs 10 is a specific warning for Levites, Pastors, Priests etc who fail to bring in up to 10% of their tithe.

Read Deuteronomy 26 vs 12 and then read Deuteronomy 14 vs 28, that's where u will find all the rules of tithing.

I like how you cleverly excluded Malachi(concluding chapter of the old testament) were God said his people should return to tithing and stop robbing him and also Hebrews were it was shown how not only the levites who can be intepreted as our modern day pastors are to receive the tithe but Jesus himself receives the tithe in heaven each time it is brought.

Like one of my revered mentors would say if you are looking for scriptures to support your error, you will find one..at the end of the day its a matter of spiritual insight, convictions and choice to do what is commanded..so if you like continue not tithing. When devourers finish with you, you will know how far.

Some of the wealthiest persons on Earth are not Christians so paying tithes doesn't even arise when referring to them.

Tithing is clearly biblical, there's no question about that. However I sincerely wish that the Church will concentrate on the weightier things of the law as Christ admonished the Pharisees to do. Tithe is a personal covenant with God and I sincerely believe it ought to remain so.

If you have nothing constructive and insightful on the matter get lost and try to inform your ignorance before you advertise it..Common sense demands that before you villify the man of God you should know a few basic things about him..
He was called of God in 1981 he was ordained and commisioned into church ministry in 1983 by Pastor EA Adeboye and anoited Bishop in 1987 by a most revered Man of God who mentored him in the 80s and 90s in person of ArchBishop Benson Idahosa..I guess that time you possibly werent even born.Oh he is not a God ordained priest..if not that you are a comfirm ignorant person. Who is a priest? How is a priest ordained? What is the function of a priest? How does a priest fit into the 5 fold minstry offices described by paul in the new testament?
Even the demonic forces of hell acknowledge Papa Oyedepo as a sent man of God with undeniable proofs. Oh you dont know. Is not your fault.

Is this so hard to understand?
What he's saying is as clear as a writing on a wall.
In other words, he's saying, "Give me your money, or I won't prophesy blessings into your life. "
As Hozier said about religion,
"To keep that God is on my side, he demands a sacrifice.
Drain the whole sea, just to get something shiny.
This is hungry work."
Religion plays on the minds of the innocent, it takes advantage of their naivety and search for truth and it replaces it with lies and fantasies all in the pretence of giving false temporary euphoria and meaning to the hopeless. .
And it replaces rationality with ignorance, fear ,superstition and extreme hatred for the fellow man.
Animals rarely attack other animals of the same species but a human being will gladly physically and verbally attack another human being all because his "good book" has taught him to do so to people who do not share the same religious beliefs.
And the funny thing is, they all fiercely believe that their own particular religion is the "right" one .
The sum of everything -
God made Man, Man made God.
