The truth is, he is worried over the tithes and offerings not adding up. His plans for the 2020 seem threatened by the lockdown of the church.

The false prophet should be reminded that markets are where essential commodities are sold, not places of worship. No one can live without food, but everyone can live without gathering in the church and mosque.

He should be concerned with healing people that are being afflicted with the virus by going from one isolation center to the other.

Tithe collector God is everywhere. It is essential to go to church to worship God but you can equally worship God wherever you are. Your problem is that that the people you are fleecing in the name of Tithe, offering,special blessing offering, seed, first fruit offering, provoke God of offering, free will offering, special project offering etc. Abeg park one side, this una scam must burst one day

Typical African mentality. God is everywhere and not just in a church. The Israelites stayed indoors (inside their houses) while the angel of death ravaged first sons of Egyptians.

Unfortunately, God does not need your money. By paying 10% of your income, you are ignorantly dashing your hard earned income to religious merchants and charlatans.

People who are in the hospital living on oxygen are not in the condition because they do not pay tithe or even serve God. Therefore, paying 100% as tithe wouldn't stop you from buying oxygen if you have got a medical condition that necessitate that(God forbid).

The only way you can show your love to God is by living a holy life and helping the poor and the less privileged. Any other thing you do, they are just activities to please your pastor and enrich him.
stagger:


I have been paying mine online for several years and I just paid another one a few days ago.

Tithe is paid on a salary or a business increase. If you have none of these, you are not obligated to do so. I have both, so I pay because of my love for God.

A cylinder of oxygen in the hospital costs N5,000 per hour as I was told. How many hours of free air have I been breathing for all these decades I have been on earth? Can I pay God for it?

I owe God my life and paying a tenth of my earnings is one of the few ways I can say thank you. I do not know about you or others.

Food is an essential commodity. We cannot live without food. On the other hand, we can serve God in our various homes. God deals with our individual hearts not the congregation.

Because churches are not relevant in this situation unless of course, they are setting up food banks and kitchens to feed the hungry for free.



Through the Church the State would be more effective in passing their message across. The Church will also cater for those who the government failed to reach. More enlightenment could be passed through collaboration with spiritual leaders, I would much rather listen to my priest than a Governor who is far from me and doesn't know I exist.

I know this topic will reach 20 pages because idle and lazy Nigerian youths derive pleasure from insulting men of God and the things that pertain to God. Put a topic around science, technology, IA, investment, etc; you will not see up to 5 pages. No wonder the country is this backward. Channel your energy to things that will add value to you and humanity. Bishop Oyedepo has done more for himself, this country and humanity than most of you wasting your time on his personal opinion which he is entitled to.

Obviously, the social roles the church play in the society can not be overemphasised and this is the time they could come really handy if the church leaders truly understand their roles in the society.

It is not a spiritual problem now, rather it is physical, mental and dangerous and requires practical and strategic solutions.

Are people not entitled to their own opinions too? You eventually added your comment to increase the number of pages of this subject which does not border about science, technology, IA, or investment.

There are alternatives to 'church gathering' as individuals can still meet at family or house fellowship level. But there is no alternative to going to market. People must feed.

Abi Bishop will feed his flock (tens of thousands) with physical food after feeding them with spiritual food? Jesus did it, Bishop should also do it.

Bishop Oyedepo should announce free lunch for all worshippers on Sunday with an additional #5000 pocket money for indingent worshippers every Sunday.

And let no pastor sermonise worshippers to give. The giving should be voluntary and the poor should not be made to feel as if they sinned by not giving or that they are blocking their source of blessings by not paying tithe.

The gospel has gone beyond the elementary doctrines of tithing, giving and prosperity.

China has about 1.5m people, no churches or mosques. Covid_19 started from China. They did not pray about it. They employed scientific solutions and self discipline. China is winning the battle as schools and businesses are coming back. Our pastors want us to pray our ways out of it as usual.

Mr Oyedepo, now more than ever, the Nigerian Church has shown it's self to be extremely non-essential. At the start of the year all the Nigerian churches proclaimed that 2020 would be our year, a year of GREAT HEALTH, GREAT WEALTH AND MAGNIFICENT BLESSINGS.

Well so far 2020 has been awful, and Nigeria and the world are staring at a recession/depression. So pastors of Nigeria, why didn't you people foresee this pandemic? Why are you not healing the sick COVID-19 patients? It just goes to show you all that their miracle shows are carefully choreographed drama shows.

Post COVID-19 expect empty seats in your churches, the people are waking up.

THEY ARE WAITING FOR GOVERNMENT'S PERMISSION TO UNLEASH THEIR MIRACULOUS POWERS ON THE WUHAN VIRUS...LOLZ.

Here we go again.
There is a difference between going to the market and going to church.
No one goes to the market to socialise, as opposed to church.
WHEN you go to the market you do your shopping and leave, unlike church.
But trust a dishonest clergyman not to know the difference.

Oyedepo should first go to isolation center and cure just one patient first then the government can hear his baby cry .

Tithes and offerings down finish you better face your university and other businesses and use the fund to pay for your jet landing fee daily till the free church income comes back
