David Ibiyeomie, the presiding pastor of Salvation Ministries in Rivers state, has declared that anyone who refuses to pay tithe will have their life “tight”.
In a now-viral sermon,
Ibiyeomie described tithing as a “foundation covenant” that every Christian
must uphold.
“You cannot say that you are walking in a covenant if your
foundation is not in place. Your foundation covenant is your tithe,” he said.
“When you build a house, and you don’t have a foundation,
will that house stand? Trying to walk in covenant wealth without tithing is
like trying to build a house without a foundation.”
The clergy shared his personal giving figures to drive home
his point, stating that “the minimum I give on Sundays is $12,000”.
“The minimum I give on a Sunday is $12,000. That is the
minimum. Every Sunday. And the minimum I give on weekdays is $2,000. Even when
I am not in church, even when I travel, my offering will be there,” he said.
“Check well, even when I am not in church, you would see my
offering on the table.”
Ibiyeomie also boasted that he would remain wealthy even if
his members stopped giving offerings or tithes.
“If you don’t give your offering, I will be rich, stinkingly
rich. I am not depending on your money. If my birthday is coming, get angry and
don’t give me any money. This guy will be rich because it is not coming from
you. It is coming from my covenant work with God,” he said.
