The Senior Pastor of Daystar
Church, Pastor Sam Adeyemi, has given his views on payment of tithe by
Christians.
According to the cleric, curses
attached to failure to pay tithe have expired and only worked in the Old
Testament.
The pastor said this while
addressing his congregation yesterday, where he also pointed out that tithe was
paid in the old Testament as a law with curses attached to failure to pay.
He said Christian should not be
pressured or forced to pay tithe, adding that not paying tithe does not attract
a curse for a Christian anymore.
He said, “Since we are under a
new covenant, giving is a choice. Everyone should decide the percentage they
want to pay with the knowledge that you will be blessed based on how you give.”
Let the Scriptures give the final verdict. Ponder on these, Matthew 23:23;Luke 11:42.
ReplyDeleteIt is better God owned me than to owned God.
ReplyDeleteIf it is old as claimed, then the blessing in the old testament is old too and should not be claimed including the blessing of Abraham.
What exactly is the NEW COVENANT AND WHAT IT OFFER?
REMEMBER (Mt. 5:17-18).....JESUS CAME TO FULFILL THE LAW AND NOT TO DESTROY IT.
It is better to obey foolishly that to pay a foolish price at the end when things can not be reverse.
For me, l will pay my tithe either Old or New testament.
