I used to give my pastor money personally. I used to tell him ":this is NOT for church". It is for you to buy something for your wife, children, dinner, vacation, clothes, whatever you chose to spend it on..." When I look at God's goodness, and all HE has done for me...nobody needs to tell me what to give to God...10% of my wages cannot repay Christ's love for me. Even 100% of my wages cannot repay Christ's love for me...
Right but that's a different thing. God did not ask you to do it. He COMMANDED the Israelites to do it and there were repercussions for those who did not. Yours is totally voluntary what God commands of you is cheerful giving. There are repercussions if you do not give cheerfully. Don't muddle things up
The law of tithe was not part of the law of moses, tithing precedes law of moses. Our problems as christians is that we fail to understand biblical significance and follow the passion of our self interest. If one pastor says, tithing should be cancelled becuase he or she feels is part of the law of moses, then such person should go and read how Paul made references about Abraham whose believe in God was accounted for righteousness. The law of moses is what christ has come to correct. Abraham gave his first tithe to melchizedek because he feels grateful of what God had done for him. Naturally everyone who is a believer should be grateful to give in return to the giver of our heart desires. God loves a cheerful giver who knows that without God he or she is nothing.
And Abraham gave a tithe to Melchizedek once! Did the Bible say that Abraham continued to pay tithe every month? Tithing as a law started with the Israelites please, and it was for a reason, which no longer exists.
Pastor kumuyi also came out to cement the apology, my take is that all the big names pastors should go for a bible refresher course with Abel ministry.
You are just a stingy Christian who does not want to get associated with the giving aspect of Christianity. Most believers just don't want to serve God with their money cus it's hard to give. Bear in your mind that no pastor is forcing any one to give tithe.
@ayodamolaoludemi4094 you are the one on the wrong path, don't listen to Damina from what people say about him, listen to learn and your eyes will be open. I said same thing before I sat down to listen to him, I enjoyed listening to him daily
@@awolopeoluwaseun4880 you'll be living a life of apostasy unknowingly if you follow this man blindly but i pray it doesn't become too late for you cos a life giving to false doctrine can be very hard to change
I agree with u on the persecution part….any preacher that is loved everywhere and just buying different cars all the time…..there is a problem, I have read my Bible, I have seen the life of Jesus
Pastor Adeboye did not apologize for asking Christians to pay tithe, he apologized for saying people who did not pay tithe will not go to heaven. Go and listen to his full message.
don’t mind them joor they wanted to twist what pst Adeboye said ni but thank God for social media it’s on record forever that Adeboye didn’t condemn the acts of paying tithes period he even said Christian’s can graduate more than 10% self 😂
@@MaryOgu-yh7mtDon't be misguided. The fellow said 10% is nothing to be given to the Lord and his work. Meaning, he'd rather give more. That's the right thing to do. At least, he didn't say he'll give from your money but from his.
@@drkevinking you're the one obviously misguided and misdirecting others as well. Give to the needy Jesus said and not to pastors. Your pastors already have more than enough to propagate whatever false doctrines they like. Your neighbours are obviously hungry and needing the support. Give that 10% and more to them.
Someone in the comment said that pastors use tithe to fund their lifestyles. But he didn't care to know where the pastors get the money they use in sponsoring people for worldwide evangelism and all the great work they are doing in their communities and the country at large. Do you know how many schools, roads, boreholes, and even 24-hour power supply that churches have built/constructed and given to their host communities? Do you know the numbers of poor people churches are caring for on a daily basis? Do you know how many students are in the university courtesy of churches? Do you know how many graduates that churches are absorbing from the unemployment market on a yearly basis? Do you know how many poor people churches have sponsored and empowered with vocational training? Do you know how many widows are taken care of by churches? Do you know how many people that churches are sponsoring yearly for worldwide evangelism/church planting? Do you know how many world-class gospel musicians that were trained by the churches that today are bringing honor to this country? The list goes on. Most of the achievements above were made possible because people are paying their tithes. Finally, do you know that if not for the churches in Nigeria, this country would have been totally enveloped by the power of darkness? If you are not paying your tithe you are doing yourself, you are not doing any pastor or church. A day is coming when all faithful tithe payers will be rewarded by the master himself. Read your Bible very well. Look at those pastors preaching against tithe; they offer little or nothing to the overall progress of the universal church. What are their contributions to those great things that the churches are doing in Nigeria? They have deceived themselves and are now deceiving others. They are a bunch of envious people. Christians, be wise. I can continue, but let me stop here.
You are very funny, people built schools, ran them for free and still didn't take a dime from the community, sadly most of the pastors collecting monies today attended those free schools. If it was the black man that heard the good news first, others might not have had the opportunity to know God
All this long english to support Pastors who collect more and give less.nthe personal benefits and businesses they milk out with their lies far exceeds the little they do. It is bad. FULL STOP
A fireful dullard has dropped quote. Corruption, stealing, kidnapping, raping, and so many evil work for the people it works for. That doesn't make it right!!! Do the truth, ñot what works
Damina is a child of the devil,he uses one truth and join nine lies just to confused the people and people will believe the nine lies because of the one truth.
I believe in giving tithes, Just because DR Abel damina does not believe in giving tithe, this does not mean that tithe is not acceptable to God. some people even give more than their tithes to the church. Quiet frankly that is between them and God. Coversely, I do concur with the Dr that Jesus Christ and his church is about holiness.... the church in Nigeria has it's bad points and good points and has been a blessing to many of it's citizens, employing and sending many children to school. In short, there need to be balance..
@@ucvic7465 He said" it wasn't God that sent the chariot of fire 🔥 that took Elijah to Heaven"...What heresy! That is just one out of many he said....I am one out of many that have studied not read my bible. I started reading the bible from age 8 & now I am in my early forties...still actively reading. So,my knowledge is from personal encounters with the word of God& not want pastors like him manipulate people who don't know their God with.
I love you so much sir, I don't know much about the bible but come to think of it Jesus said to the tax collector,give what you have to the needy and follow me but today the pulpit owners have mansions, private jet,cars everywhere and they are still demanding for 20%/40% of your tithe Is every easy to think,they can't stand the hunger we the followers are bearing Nigeria christian wise up
This thing with papa adeboye must be discussed carefully, must be thought through carefully, there is a way to address an elderly person in public more so, there is a way to address elderly men who have laboured in the faith. Careful guys.
Why did you respectful people not address the terrible thing Adeboye said? Why did you not call him out respectfully? Everyone kept venerating him and attacking Damina. If not for his combative approach Adeboye would never have recanted
I hope you also know that Dr Abel Damina is also an elder even by scripture's standard. Let's put those aside and let's be truthful to the scripture and teach it correctly. This correction must be circulated because there are a lot of Christians who are more loyal to their Pastors than to the scripture and this is as a result of ignorance. Address the matters and let everyone receive with meekness the truth of scripture irrespective of position
Point of. Correction to Abel Damina, he said the book of Malachi was not written to us, you need to understand that every book in the Bible has their original audience and yet they are applicable to us today .e.g, was the book of Galatians written directly to us? no,yet, it the word from God to us today. When it comes to the issue of tithe, you refuse to accept that Malachi is not written to us.
Tithe is not the problem, the problem is transactional gospel, using Money to replace the works of christ. Something like if u don't pay tithe u will not go to heaven. That is heresy
There is a whole new covenant people like you are not aware of. For if you were, you would stop trying to practice both covenants instead of the new covenant
Apology or not. Pst Adeboye's teaching grew my faith in Christ. If the tithe statement is your problem, idc. Pst. E.A Adeboye is forever my Daddy ❤❤❤❤❤
This is very sad to see! You are in deep idolatory, and you do not know that! Apology or not ? Do you know what you are saying? So you do not know that by Adeboye saying without paying tithe you can not make heaven is an attack on Christ ? Have you not read the bible ? Don't you know that the only way to heaven is through faith in Christ alone by grace alone??? Are you sure the Christ Adeboye led you to is not the false Christ? I am not a fan of Abel because he also preaches wrong doctrines, but Adeboye is also a dangerous false teacher you MUST flee from if you indeed want to know the Christ of the bible. I say this with all concern for you. I can recommend biblical teachers like John MacAuthor, Paul Washer, Dave Hunt, RC Sproul, Mike Winger etc. But you have to know Christ for yourselves. These men can also be wrong and are not perfect. I really hope God opens your eyes to see that RCCG and Adeboye are not faithful teachers of the Gospel
If the body rejects the hand He is not complete. Tithe Is as Important as offerings and repentance of sin. There’s a lot to say but I will end here for now
If tithe is still very important, go to Israel now and find out if they still collect tithe. They will tell you that there are no Levites again. They will also tell you that the monetary tithe is a corruption of tithing. Tithing has principles. If you are not doing it right, you're not doing it! So, which of these tithes below do you pay if you pay tithes? We have to be sincere here. In the Old Testament, there were three main types of tithes and were meant Levites/ Priests, Poor and Widows: *1. Levitical Tithe (or First Tithe)* - Purpose: Support the Levites and their families (Numbers 18:21-32). - Amount: 10% of agricultural produce and livestock - Frequency: Annual (not monthly- once in a year. - Distribution: Given to Levites, who then gave 10% to priests (Numbers 18:25-32) *2. Festival Tithe (or Second Tithe)* - Purpose: Celebrate festivals (Deuteronomy 14:22-29). Here, if the place that the Lord has chosen if far from where your tithes are, you are to sell them ( not money o cos you can't sell money) and then go to the place that the Lord has chosen for you and when you get there, you will use the money to buy what you like- the animals be it ox, cattle, ram etc and buy food, strong drink (you know what it means) and you and your household will eat them and be merry. Here, you are to eat your tithe and celebrate. - Amount: 10% of agricultural produce (every 3 years, 20% for festival years) - Frequency: Triennial (every 3 years) - Distribution: Consumed by the giver, their family, and the Levites during festivals *3. Poor Tithe (or Third Tithe)* - Purpose: Support the poor, widows, orphans, and strangers (Deuteronomy 14:28-29, 26:12-15) - Amount: 10% of agricultural produce (every 3 years) - Frequency: Triennial (every 3 years) - Distribution: Stored locally for the poor and vulnerable There was no where money was acceptable even though money you available at that time. Only agricultural produce was acceptable and they must be from the land of Israel. The introduction of money as tithe was a man-made thing which means alteration of the scriptures. Key principles: - To Support worship and ministry - To Care for the poor and vulnerable These tithes were given to the priests/Levites because they had no land as inheritance and so were chosen to serve God. They could not do any other job aside serving in the temples.
The Levites (priest) where suppose to work in God's house and own nothing... They were living like monks. The tithe helps them to survive.. Our so-called pastors today are living like Kings and tax collectors. And they confidently eat what is God's own... Why do they not preach what Deuteronomy says about tithe..?
@@blacaboki if the pastors are what u say then the christian are what they are. Talk to the Christians and leave the alone obviously they sponsor the pastors. We have good pastors we have good Christians and visa versa
Yes it's TRUE IF YOU EAT TITHE...YOU WILL NEVER ENTER HEAVEN...BECAUSE NO THIEVES WILL ENTER 1 COR 6:10-19.... WITHOUT SALVATION N FORGIVENESS YOU WONT SEE GOD
Madam go and read the Bible again. Deuteronomy 14:23 GNT: Then go to the one place where the Lord your God has chosen to be worshiped; and there in his presence eat the tithes of your grain, wine, and olive oil, and the first-born of your cattle and sheep. Do this so that you may learn to honor the Lord your God always. AMP: And you shall eat before the Lord your God in the place in which He will cause His Name [and Presence] to dwell the tithe (tenth) of your grain, your new wine, your oil, and the firstlings of your herd and your flock, that you may learn [reverently] to fear the Lord your God always. NIV: Eat the tithe of your grain, new wine and olive oil, and the firstborn of your herds and flocks in the presence of the LORD your God at the place he will choose as a dwelling for his Name, so that you may learn to revere the LORD your God always. Read and grow in spirit... Enoch is a thief too... Jesus himself called such people Hypocrites in Matthew 23... All they want is tithe and not preach the right thing... God bless you ma
I agree with all he said besides the fact that missionaries came because of this gospel. They couldn’t have come to give us what we already had. Real persecution will begin when you preach the redemption of our own people, who happen to be the chosen of all nations. This is not about religion…. This is real salvation.
My question now is were should we place MALACHI that says we shouldn't Rob God in our Tithe and Offering? Let me ask us how would Church of Fod be run without Tithe And Offering? I believe for those that pays Tithe and Offering none is a Child so you search the scripture if you are truly a Christian Follow the Commandment no matter how you paint the scripture is just there.
And how do you do that without money... Missions cost money. Any community you go to introduce the gospel, you sponsored what they lack to show the love of Christ. The whites brought a us education alongside the gospel.
Dr Damina is right. Knowledge is power. Tithing is an old testament law and the dispensation we are at the moment forbids that we Christians (as gentiles) observe the laws of Moses. These laws of Moses were 613 which the Israelites (only Israelites mandated were to obey). How did the law become a curse? Paul emphasized that the law is a curse in *Galatians 3:10-13: "For as many as are of the world of the law are under the curse for it is written, *CURSED IS EVERYONE THAT CONTINUETH NOT IN ALL THINGS WHICH ARE WRITTEN IN THE BOOK OF THE LAW TO DO THEM."* What was it that was written and where was it written? *Deuteronomy 27:26 (Read 11-26):* *CURSED IS ANYONE WHO DOES NOT UPHOLD THE WORDS OF THIS LAW BY OBSERVING THEM.* Prophet Malachi also reiterated that the priests have incurred curses upon themselves by not obeying just one of the 613 laws of Moses. Not paying tithe means they refused to obey the laws of Moses and as a result, curse would be upon them. *Malachi 3:9 says YOU ARE CURSED WITH A CURSE, FOR YOU ARE ROBBING ME."* Malachi only reminded them of Deuteronomy 27:26 which was the curse the Israelites placed on whoever among them that refuses to obey the law. All these happened before Christ died. Now that Christ has died and redeemed us from the curse of the law by His grace, Christians are no longer obligated to obey the law. Because saying that we want to keep upholding the law would mean that we are saying we reject the grace with which Christ has rescued us. And if we don't uphold all the laws, we would place ourselves under the curse that Christ has redeemed us from. Remember Deuteronomy 27:26 - if anyone refuses to obey all the laws, he/she is cursed. Parts of 613 laws include: Not to mistreat animals(Exodus 23:5), Not to oppress the stranger (Exodus 22:21), Not to make idols ) Exodus 20:4-5), Not to blaspheme (Leviticus 24:16), To offer daily sacrifices(Exodus 29:38-42), To To observe Yom Kippur - Day of Atonement (Leviticus 16), To support Priesthood (tithing) Numbers 18:1-32, To marry withing the faith (Deuteronomy 7:3-4), To care for the widow and poor (Deuteronomy 15:7-11). As Christians, we are not obligated to observe all these laws. This was a debate between Paul and some of Jesus'disciples after the death of Christ as we have it in the new testament. In *Acts 15:1-36*, some were of the opinion that the new converts to Christianity) the gentiles had to keep the laws while Paul and Barnabas objected this view. The argument was so tense that they all had to go to meet the elders of the church in Jerusalem. In *Acts15:19-21* James ( Jesus' brother) suggested that the gentiles should follow minimal requirements which were ONLY 4: To abstain from idolatry (verse 20), To avoid blood and meat sacrificed to idols ) verses 20 &. 29), To refrain from sexual immorality ( verse 20), To avoid eating meat from animals killed by strangling or animals that died with their blood in them ( verses 20 &29). In *Galatians 2:1-14*, Paul & Barnabas disagreed with Peter and other Jewish Christians on the need for gentiles to keep the law. Paul argued that it wasn't required, that Salvation comes through faith in Christ alone. In *Galatians 5:1-6*, Paul warned Gentiles against trying to keep the Law for Salvation. In *1 Corinthians 7:19*, he also stated that Circumscision is unnecessary. So, with this knowledge, saying that Christians (formerly gentiles) have to keep the law when Christ has set us free from that curse associated with non obedience of the law doesn't make sense. It's like we are putting ourselves under the curse that doesn't concern us in the first place. Christ is all we need. We don't have to keep the laws to be Christians. The grace of Christ is sufficient for us all.
Tithe is Compulsory Sir....Abraham was the first to give...it's a grace... Genesis 14:18-20..Malachi 3 says we MUST ALL GIVE TITHE ...Hebrews 7 also tells us spiritual leaders to tithe ten percent we receive...kindly teach the CORRECT WORD SIR
Abraham was not mandated to pay tithe. He took a decision to give one tenth of his spouse of war to Melchizedek who he sensed was a priest. Abraham got that practice from the pegan way of worship that he once belong before the Lord called him. In pegan worship, you go to see a seer with a seer offering. And Abraham still practice such even after God called him. That's why everytime God meets with Abraham, he offers sacrifices to God, because that a practice he has built throughout his life as a pegan worshipper before God called him and which was not a sin still practicing such way of giving when he meets with someone who he sensed to be a seer or prophet or priest. It's just like some Muslims who pray five times a day. When they come to Jesus, most of them still keep that practice of praying five times a day which is not a sin, and this time, their prayers is to Jesus and no longer to Allah.
Jesus Christ is the greatest gift anyone can receive. Because of the gift of Christ Jesus, we are called sons of God. Even Abraham did not have the opportunity to know Jesus Christ, so he had to pay tithe and make other peace offerings to be abkebto draw close to God. Jesus Christ is of a better and higher covenant. Greater than the covenant of tithing! Jesus Christbis the fulfillment of the Law, including the law of tithing. I would rather accept and live by the greater and better covenant God has gifted us in Christ Jesus. Tithing is of a former and lesser covenant! The glory of the latter covenant in Christ Jesus is greater than that of the former in Abraham.
Also, even though Abaraham paid tithe, he was never called the Son of God. Today, I am a child of God because I have received Jesus Christ as my Lord and savior, not because I pay tithe. Tithing is overrated.
When tithe is mentioned, defenders of falsehood will start quoting the old testament. Christianity started from the new testament, so why cherry pick this old testament and not practice everything written there
When church syllables finishes pastors Becomes confused because no new revelations...listen to pa Elton message and u will know the next phase of the movement of God on earth
Isn't it worth considering that Jesus never collected tithe? Isnt it worth considering that the apostles never demanded tithe? When did this teaching enter the new testament church? Some things are so old that we cant trace where the error got in. Thank God that He loves a cheerful giver 🙏
Pst. Abel Damina, I would like to believe what you said to pator Adeboye is a form of persecution. The bible said know the truth and the truth shall set you free. There is difference btwn truth and fact. Fact is a generally established knowledge but truth is based on what you know and believe in. You mostly preach fact but Jesus said to know the truth. So In whatever version Jesus comes to you as a man or child of God is your truth and that's what shud be preached. You talked about persecution, it would be unfair if you are referring to pst Adeboye's message as wrong because he isn't persecuted, as a matter of fact Pst. Adeboye and Bishop Oyedepo who you also referred to in your comment has been persecuted and still gets persecuted. An example of their persecutor is you. I have a lot to say but it's not like my comment is relevant. But I have been taught to never let things like this slide without my little input. -Ebijuni Isaac
I know you mean well but there's no "your truth" in this gospel, there's only THE TRUTH. The truth isn't just words or ideas or opinions but it is a person. Jesus said you shall know THE TRUTH and it shall set you free. He goes on to say I AM THE WAY, THE TRUTH AND LIFE. So that truth is not some personal revelation but the person of Jesus. One of the reasons I love Christianity is that we can all be wrong and the scripture will be true if we genuinely study scripture we'll see that outside our preferences and background we can all arrive at a neutral ground that has Christ at the center. We grow in knowledge no doubt but there aren't any versions of Christ as believing that will make people heap up doctrines that fit their narrative. The scripture requires sound teaching to be understood, Paul said to study to show yourself approved by rightly dividing the word of truth. Our loyalty is to Christ and the word so any form of misrepresentation should be corrected
This man is here to make the crooked ways straight, they are not happy with him because he is spoiling the church business. But believe me, with time and consistency, he is going to change the narratives.
Revelation 22:14-16 - Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city. For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.
The mistake made by Pastor Adeboye might not be intentional. As a reasonable and sensible preacher, Abel Damina should have written a personal letter to Adeboye for correction instead of coming out, and arrogantly attacking another pastor in public, all in the name of correction. Abel Damina is only looking at Adeboye's mistake, what about his good deeds? Thousands of generations of Abel Damina might not be able to achieve what God has used Adeboye to achieve in God's ministry.
For those who love Christ, there is no limit to what a true Christian will give - 10%, 20%, 30% etc. Money hungry people will fuss, argue, murmur, fight about 10% because they don't know HIM...
When we gave we are saving into our heaven's savings account where we get blessings in return. My concerns about our so called pastors today is that you have widows, you have the poor, you have the needy in your churches but you spend huge amounts of money for affluent mundane things that will perish. Why not sell all and place it in the deacons charge to serve the body of Christ under your ministry?
For people that love God, there is no controversy about tithing. Those who love God go way beyond 10%. "All that I am, I that I have" for the one who loved me and gave himself for me
Beloved, not true but the pastors serving Mammon would quit our pulpits because money is no longer involved! Take a queue from politics in Nigeria. People are rushing into it not because they truly want to serve the people but for the money politicians enjoy
Some people still say that tithe is composery siting Abraham. What they don't know is that, Abraham was not mandated to pay tithe to God or any priest. He took a decision to give one tenth of his spouse of war to Melchizedek who he sensed was a priest. Abraham got that practice from the pegan way of worship that he once belonged before God called him. In pegan worship, you meet a seer with a seer offering. And Abraham still practice such even after God called him. That's why everytime God meets with Abraham, he offers burnt offerings to God, because that's a practice he learnt in his life as once a pegan worshipper before God called him and which was not a sin still practicing such way of giving even after he left pegan worship when he meets with someone who he sensed to be a seer or prophet or priest. It's just like some Muslims who pray five times a day. When they come to Jesus, most of them still keep that practice of praying five times a day which is not a sin, and this time, their prayers is to Jesus and no longer to Allah.
Apologize to Abel Damina? Dey mumu Una self. Baba only correct what he needs to correct. Na very bold step. He is going small small he is trying to make everything straight. Dey there dey open mouth anyhow
For fake pastors not for the called& genuine men of God. As an Evangelist,who dont even collect tithes,once I go out to do God's work, people bless me and even now that I am a pastor,God moved people to bless me& even give me a monthly allowance without coercion. In every area of life,there are fake& there a genuine ones.
Bro there are ppl who are genuine and called by God, people give to these men as appreciation for their works, they don't live on tithe.... You don't merge the false and those who are truely serving God
Bro a gunine man of God does not place much importance of materials things even if u been gifted... it's called Vanity wen u die u can't go to heaven with them.....99.5% so called men of God check what they put on their feet... wake up read Ur bible and follow & follow the 2 greatest commandment

It is for you to buy something for your wife, children, dinner, vacation, clothes, whatever you chose to spend it on..." When I look at God's goodness, and all HE has done for me...nobody needs to tell me what to give to God...10% of my wages cannot repay Christ's love for me. Even 100% of my wages cannot repay Christ's love for me...
That's great you are right
Right but that's a different thing. God did not ask you to do it. He COMMANDED the Israelites to do it and there were repercussions for those who did not. Yours is totally voluntary what God commands of you is cheerful giving. There are repercussions if you do not give cheerfully. Don't muddle things up
God bless you

Our problems as christians is that we fail to understand biblical significance and follow the passion of our self interest.

Naturally everyone who is a believer should be grateful to give in return to the giver of our heart desires. God loves a cheerful giver who knows that without God he or she is nothing.
And Abraham gave a tithe to Melchizedek once! Did the Bible say that Abraham continued to pay tithe every month? Tithing as a law started with the Israelites please, and it was for a reason, which no longer exists.

Pastor Adeboye did not apologize for asking Christians to pay tithe, he apologized for saying people who did not pay tithe will not go to heaven. Go and listen to his full message.
Go and listen to the ful message.
don’t mind them joor they wanted to twist what pst Adeboye said ni but thank God for social media it’s on record forever that Adeboye didn’t condemn the acts of paying tithes period he even said Christian’s can graduate more than 10% self 😂

You're doing the right pastor!
Love ❤ for Abel Damina's bible teachings!
"All that I am, I that I have" for my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ who loved me and gave himself for me. 10% is NOTHING...
Even me
God does not need your money!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Turn to your poor neighbour and give them that 10% Use your brains ooo
Why give God NOTHING, then?
@@MaryOgu-yh7mtDon't be misguided. The fellow said 10% is nothing to be given to the Lord and his work. Meaning, he'd rather give more. That's the right thing to do. At least, he didn't say he'll give from your money but from his.
@@drkevinking you're the one obviously misguided and misdirecting others as well. Give to the needy Jesus said and not to pastors. Your pastors already have more than enough to propagate whatever false doctrines they like. Your neighbours are obviously hungry and needing the support. Give that 10% and more to them.
Thank you, Abel. You are preaching the unadulterated word of God.
Someone in the comment said that pastors use tithe to fund their lifestyles. But he didn't care to know where the pastors get the money they use in sponsoring people for worldwide evangelism and all the great work they are doing in their communities and the country at large. Do you know how many schools, roads, boreholes, and even 24-hour power supply that churches have built/constructed and given to their host communities? Do you know the numbers of poor people churches are caring for on a daily basis? Do you know how many students are in the university courtesy of churches? Do you know how many graduates that churches are absorbing from the unemployment market on a yearly basis? Do you know how many poor people churches have sponsored and empowered with vocational training? Do you know how many widows are taken care of by churches? Do you know how many people that churches are sponsoring yearly for worldwide evangelism/church planting? Do you know how many world-class gospel musicians that were trained by the churches that today are bringing honor to this country? The list goes on.
Most of the achievements above were made possible because people are paying their tithes.
Finally, do you know that if not for the churches in Nigeria, this country would have been totally enveloped by the power of darkness? If you are not paying your tithe you are doing yourself, you are not doing any pastor or church. A day is coming when all faithful tithe payers will be rewarded by the master himself. Read your Bible very well. Look at those pastors preaching against tithe; they offer little or nothing to the overall progress of the universal church. What are their contributions to those great things that the churches are doing in Nigeria? They have deceived themselves and are now deceiving others. They are a bunch of envious people.
Christians, be wise. I can continue, but let me stop here.
Amen amen amen! 🙏🏽
You are very funny, people built schools, ran them for free and still didn't take a dime from the community, sadly most of the pastors collecting monies today attended those free schools. If it was the black man that heard the good news first, others might not have had the opportunity to know God

There are many other teachings he teaches that I don't believe but I concur with him on this one. I believe the truth due matter whom said it.
Damina is a child of the devil,he uses one truth and join nine lies just to confused the people and people will believe the nine lies because of the one truth.
Yes, He preaches so many errors but at times he's teachings are good.
Exactly Sir. I hope he just focuses only on those that are true.
Exactly Sir. I hope he just focuses only on those that are true.

Thank you.
I believe in giving tithes, Just because DR Abel damina does not believe in giving tithe, this does not mean that tithe is not acceptable to God. some people even give more than their tithes to the church. Quiet frankly that is between them and God. Coversely, I do concur with the Dr that Jesus Christ and his church is about holiness.... the church in Nigeria has it's bad points and good points and has been a blessing to many of it's citizens, employing and sending many children to school. In short, there need to be balance..
Gid bless you sir, Dr Damina.
Keep doing the good work of Christ.

Pastor Adeboye didn't apologised because of 10%Tithie but he encouraged us that we can give God more in faith
And who is God in faith we should give more to
I love you so much sir, I don't know much about the bible but come to think of it
Jesus said to the tax collector,give what you have to the needy and follow me but today the pulpit owners have mansions, private jet,cars everywhere and they are still demanding for 20%/40% of your tithe
Is every easy to think,they can't stand the hunger we the followers are bearing
Nigeria christian wise up
The pastors instead say “follow me and give me what you have” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Jesus is the desire of all nation, when we preach it, all men will come to him.
This thing with papa adeboye must be discussed carefully, must be thought through carefully, there is a way to address an elderly person in public more so, there is a way to address elderly men who have laboured in the faith. Careful guys.
Sir this is what people dont know...God bless you for this
Why did you respectful people not address the terrible thing Adeboye said? Why did you not call him out respectfully? Everyone kept venerating him and attacking Damina. If not for his combative approach Adeboye would never have recanted
I hope you also know that Dr Abel Damina is also an elder even by scripture's standard. Let's put those aside and let's be truthful to the scripture and teach it correctly. This correction must be circulated because there are a lot of Christians who are more loyal to their Pastors than to the scripture and this is as a result of ignorance. Address the matters and let everyone receive with meekness the truth of scripture irrespective of position
He is misleading people on the issue of tithe full stop
May the devil not use any man to bring you under His curse.
Point of. Correction to Abel Damina, he said the book of Malachi was not written to us, you need to understand that every book in the Bible has their original audience and yet they are applicable to us today .e.g, was the book of Galatians written directly to us? no,yet, it the word from God to us today.
When it comes to the issue of tithe, you refuse to accept that Malachi is not written to us.
I think you have problem with English language...
Try and listen again, I'm sure you will understand the message...
He added "even if it was to us, we have been redeemed... " Read or listen twice , it has a way of helping slow learners.. May the Lord help you
Tithe is not the problem, the problem is transactional gospel, using Money to replace the works of christ. Something like if u don't pay tithe u will not go to heaven. That is heresy
There is a whole new covenant people like you are not aware of. For if you were, you would stop trying to practice both covenants instead of the new covenant
D A D's preaching is 🔥💯✅
Apology or not. Pst Adeboye's teaching grew my faith in Christ.
If the tithe statement is your problem, idc.
Pst. E.A Adeboye is forever my Daddy ❤❤❤❤❤
Good for you sir.
Be careful not to idolise a man of God. God is jealous.... don't forget.
This is very sad to see! You are in deep idolatory, and you do not know that!
Apology or not ? Do you know what you are saying? So you do not know that by Adeboye saying without paying tithe you can not make heaven is an attack on Christ ? Have you not read the bible ? Don't you know that the only way to heaven is through faith in Christ alone by grace alone???
Are you sure the Christ Adeboye led you to is not the false Christ?
I am not a fan of Abel because he also preaches wrong doctrines, but Adeboye is also a dangerous false teacher you MUST flee from if you indeed want to know the Christ of the bible. I say this with all concern for you.
I can recommend biblical teachers like John MacAuthor, Paul Washer, Dave Hunt, RC Sproul, Mike Winger etc. But you have to know Christ for yourselves. These men can also be wrong and are not perfect.
I really hope God opens your eyes to see that RCCG and Adeboye are not faithful teachers of the Gospel

If the body rejects the hand He is not complete. Tithe Is as Important as offerings and repentance of sin. There’s a lot to say but I will end here for now
Do you think tithes will make u prosperous 😅
If tithe is still very important, go to Israel now and find out if they still collect tithe. They will tell you that there are no Levites again.
They will also tell you that the monetary tithe is a corruption of tithing.
Tithing has principles. If you are not doing it right, you're not doing it!
So, which of these tithes below do you pay if you pay tithes? We have to be sincere here.
In the Old Testament, there were three main types of tithes and were meant Levites/ Priests, Poor and Widows:
*1. Levitical Tithe (or First Tithe)*
- Purpose: Support the Levites and their families (Numbers 18:21-32).
- Amount: 10% of agricultural produce and livestock
- Frequency: Annual (not monthly- once in a year.
- Distribution: Given to Levites, who then gave 10% to priests (Numbers 18:25-32)
*2. Festival Tithe (or Second Tithe)*
- Purpose: Celebrate festivals (Deuteronomy 14:22-29). Here, if the place that the Lord has chosen if far from where your tithes are, you are to sell them ( not money o cos you can't sell money) and then go to the place that the Lord has chosen for you and when you get there, you will use the money to buy what you like- the animals be it ox, cattle, ram etc and buy food, strong drink (you know what it means) and you and your household will eat them and be merry. Here, you are to eat your tithe and celebrate.
- Amount: 10% of agricultural produce (every 3 years, 20% for festival years)
- Frequency: Triennial (every 3 years)
- Distribution: Consumed by the giver, their family, and the Levites during festivals
*3. Poor Tithe (or Third Tithe)*
- Purpose: Support the poor, widows, orphans, and strangers (Deuteronomy 14:28-29, 26:12-15)
- Amount: 10% of agricultural produce (every 3 years)
- Frequency: Triennial (every 3 years)
- Distribution: Stored locally for the poor and vulnerable
There was no where money was acceptable even though money you available at that time. Only agricultural produce was acceptable and they must be from the land of Israel. The introduction of money as tithe was a man-made thing which means alteration of the scriptures.
Key principles:
- To Support worship and ministry
- To Care for the poor and vulnerable
These tithes were given to the priests/Levites because they had no land as inheritance and so were chosen to serve God. They could not do any other job aside serving in the temples.
Yes now 😂😂😂. Tithe will make him richer than Elon musk.
Absolutely 💯 correct Sir
God will keep protecting Damina for us
They will come and say am sorry so said abel damina, I will always remember that words words
Pastor Abel Damina is a gift to this generation. God is a father not a Business man (not a transactional God)
I really dont know where to start commenting.
On the judgement day, everybody eye go clear…we go know who sell us bobo n wu God call true true
TRUTH stands
God bless you Sir ❤
True, most pastors are behind the pulpit just for money
Thumbs up to you Pastor Dr Abel Damina 🎉
I celebrate you Sir
Blessed is the hand that gives than the one that receives.
Oga tithe is not giving it is an obligation.when u pay tithe u are not giving to anybody it is only a tradition
Having cars jets and all that while preaching the gospel doesn't mean the absence of persecution
Jet is persecution abi? How many did Jesus buy. How many houses did He buy, how many cars? Keep deceiving yourself.
@@victorduru4822 bring Jesus into this our time and see if He will not buy jet
The Levites (priest) where suppose to work in God's house and own nothing... They were living like monks. The tithe helps them to survive..
Our so-called pastors today are living like Kings and tax collectors. And they confidently eat what is God's own...
Why do they not preach what Deuteronomy says about tithe..?
@@blacaboki what about the New Testament priest ?
@@blacaboki if the pastors are what u say then the christian are what they are. Talk to the Christians and leave the alone obviously they sponsor the pastors. We have good pastors we have good Christians and visa versa
Yes it's TRUE IF YOU EAT TITHE...YOU WILL NEVER ENTER HEAVEN...BECAUSE NO THIEVES WILL ENTER 1 COR 6:10-19.... WITHOUT SALVATION N FORGIVENESS YOU WONT SEE GOD
Madam go and read the Bible again.
Deuteronomy 14:23
GNT: Then go to the one place where the Lord your God has chosen to be worshiped; and there in his presence eat the tithes of your grain, wine, and olive oil, and the first-born of your cattle and sheep. Do this so that you may learn to honor the Lord your God always.
AMP: And you shall eat before the Lord your God in the place in which He will cause His Name [and Presence] to dwell the tithe (tenth) of your grain, your new wine, your oil, and the firstlings of your herd and your flock, that you may learn [reverently] to fear the Lord your God always.
NIV: Eat the tithe of your grain, new wine and olive oil, and the firstborn of your herds and flocks in the presence of the LORD your God at the place he will choose as a dwelling for his Name, so that you may learn to revere the LORD your God always.
Read and grow in spirit... Enoch is a thief too...
Jesus himself called such people Hypocrites in Matthew 23... All they want is tithe and not preach the right thing...
God bless you ma
If we preach jesus well, people will come to him.. hummmmm that's loud enough
Very loud enough my brother
I agree with all he said besides the fact that missionaries came because of this gospel. They couldn’t have come to give us what we already had. Real persecution will begin when you preach the redemption of our own people, who happen to be the chosen of all nations. This is not about religion…. This is real salvation.
DR Abel damina is absolutely teaching good 💯 more than all this prosperties pastors everywhere.
Jesus is the desire of all nations *
God bless you sir 👏
My question now is were should we place MALACHI that says we shouldn't Rob God in our Tithe and Offering? Let me ask us how would Church of Fod be run without Tithe And Offering? I believe for those that pays Tithe and Offering none is a Child so you search the scripture if you are truly a Christian Follow the Commandment no matter how you paint the scripture is just there.
Una just de look for money through this things now. Let's focus on preaching the gospel to the whole world.
And how do you do that without money...
Missions cost money. Any community you go to introduce the gospel, you sponsored what they lack to show the love of Christ. The whites brought a us education alongside the gospel.
it's his church I want to attend from now on
❤❤❤ teaching good 👍
Dr Damina is right. Knowledge is power.
Tithing is an old testament law and the dispensation we are at the moment forbids that we Christians (as gentiles) observe the laws of Moses. These laws of Moses were 613 which the Israelites (only Israelites mandated were to obey).
How did the law become a curse?
Paul emphasized that the law is a curse in *Galatians 3:10-13: "For as many as are of the world of the law are under the curse for it is written, *CURSED IS EVERYONE THAT CONTINUETH NOT IN ALL THINGS WHICH ARE WRITTEN IN THE BOOK OF THE LAW TO DO THEM."*
What was it that was written and where was it written?
*Deuteronomy 27:26 (Read 11-26):*
*CURSED IS ANYONE WHO DOES NOT UPHOLD THE WORDS OF THIS LAW BY OBSERVING THEM.*
Prophet Malachi also reiterated that the priests have incurred curses upon themselves by not obeying just one of the 613 laws of Moses. Not paying tithe means they refused to obey the laws of Moses and as a result, curse would be upon them. *Malachi 3:9 says YOU ARE CURSED WITH A CURSE, FOR YOU ARE ROBBING ME."* Malachi only reminded them of Deuteronomy 27:26 which was the curse the Israelites placed on whoever among them that refuses to obey the law.
All these happened before Christ died.
Now that Christ has died and redeemed us from the curse of the law by His grace, Christians are no longer obligated to obey the law. Because saying that we want to keep upholding the law would mean that we are saying we reject the grace with which Christ has rescued us. And if we don't uphold all the laws, we would place ourselves under the curse that Christ has redeemed us from. Remember Deuteronomy 27:26 - if anyone refuses to obey all the laws, he/she is cursed. Parts of 613 laws include: Not to mistreat animals(Exodus 23:5), Not to oppress the stranger (Exodus 22:21), Not to make idols ) Exodus 20:4-5), Not to blaspheme (Leviticus 24:16), To offer daily sacrifices(Exodus 29:38-42), To To observe Yom Kippur - Day of Atonement (Leviticus 16), To support Priesthood (tithing) Numbers 18:1-32, To marry withing the faith (Deuteronomy 7:3-4), To care for the widow and poor (Deuteronomy 15:7-11).
As Christians, we are not obligated to observe all these laws. This was a debate between Paul and some of Jesus'disciples after the death of Christ as we have it in the new testament. In *Acts 15:1-36*, some were of the opinion that the new converts to Christianity) the gentiles had to keep the laws while Paul and Barnabas objected this view. The argument was so tense that they all had to go to meet the elders of the church in Jerusalem.
In *Acts15:19-21* James ( Jesus' brother) suggested that the gentiles should follow minimal requirements which were ONLY 4:
To abstain from idolatry (verse 20),
To avoid blood and meat sacrificed to idols ) verses 20 &. 29),
To refrain from sexual immorality ( verse 20),
To avoid eating meat from animals killed by strangling or animals that died with their blood in them ( verses 20 &29).
In *Galatians 2:1-14*, Paul & Barnabas disagreed with Peter and other Jewish Christians on the need for gentiles to keep the law. Paul argued that it wasn't required, that Salvation comes through faith in Christ alone.
In *Galatians 5:1-6*, Paul warned Gentiles against trying to keep the Law for Salvation. In *1 Corinthians 7:19*, he also stated that Circumscision is unnecessary.
So, with this knowledge, saying that Christians (formerly gentiles) have to keep the law when Christ has set us free from that curse associated with non obedience of the law doesn't make sense. It's like we are putting ourselves under the curse that doesn't concern us in the first place. Christ is all we need. We don't have to keep the laws to be Christians. The grace of Christ is sufficient for us all.
When you see Jesus, Money loses Value.. Dr. Damina
WELL DONE. DR.
Most of our Christian pastors typically preach transactional givings. Thank you for your insight.
Tithe is Compulsory Sir....Abraham was the first to give...it's a grace... Genesis 14:18-20..Malachi 3 says we MUST ALL GIVE TITHE ...Hebrews 7 also tells us spiritual leaders to tithe ten percent we receive...kindly teach the CORRECT WORD SIR
Abraham was not mandated to pay tithe. He took a decision to give one tenth of his spouse of war to Melchizedek who he sensed was a priest. Abraham got that practice from the pegan way of worship that he once belong before the Lord called him. In pegan worship, you go to see a seer with a seer offering. And Abraham still practice such even after God called him. That's why everytime God meets with Abraham, he offers sacrifices to God, because that a practice he has built throughout his life as a pegan worshipper before God called him and which was not a sin still practicing such way of giving when he meets with someone who he sensed to be a seer or prophet or priest. It's just like some Muslims who pray five times a day. When they come to Jesus, most of them still keep that practice of praying five times a day which is not a sin, and this time, their prayers is to Jesus and no longer to Allah.
Jesus Christ is the greatest gift anyone can receive. Because of the gift of Christ Jesus, we are called sons of God. Even Abraham did not have the opportunity to know Jesus Christ, so he had to pay tithe and make other peace offerings to be abkebto draw close to God.
Jesus Christ is of a better and higher covenant. Greater than the covenant of tithing! Jesus Christbis the fulfillment of the Law, including the law of tithing. I would rather accept and live by the greater and better covenant God has gifted us in Christ Jesus. Tithing is of a former and lesser covenant! The glory of the latter covenant in Christ Jesus is greater than that of the former in Abraham.
Also, even though Abaraham paid tithe, he was never called the Son of God. Today, I am a child of God because I have received Jesus Christ as my Lord and savior, not because I pay tithe. Tithing is overrated.
When tithe is mentioned, defenders of falsehood will start quoting the old testament. Christianity started from the new testament, so why cherry pick this old testament and not practice everything written there
Pls everyone where is this man church in lagos. I want to see him. I want to set my two eyes on him. Pls i want to attend his church pls
Abel Damina is the best pentecostal preacher.
Those who criticise him don't know the Bible
Remember he said he is not a Christian
When church syllables finishes pastors Becomes confused because no new revelations...listen to pa Elton message and u will know the next phase of the movement of God on earth
Isn't it worth considering that Jesus never collected tithe? Isnt it worth considering that the apostles never demanded tithe? When did this teaching enter the new testament church? Some things are so old that we cant trace where the error got in. Thank God that He loves a cheerful giver 🙏
Pst. Abel Damina, I would like to believe what you said to pator Adeboye is a form of persecution. The bible said know the truth and the truth shall set you free. There is difference btwn truth and fact. Fact is a generally established knowledge but truth is based on what you know and believe in. You mostly preach fact but Jesus said to know the truth. So In whatever version Jesus comes to you as a man or child of God is your truth and that's what shud be preached. You talked about persecution, it would be unfair if you are referring to pst Adeboye's message as wrong because he isn't persecuted, as a matter of fact Pst. Adeboye and Bishop Oyedepo who you also referred to in your comment has been persecuted and still gets persecuted. An example of their persecutor is you. I have a lot to say but it's not like my comment is relevant. But I have been taught to never let things like this slide without my little input.
-Ebijuni Isaac
I know you mean well but there's no "your truth" in this gospel, there's only THE TRUTH. The truth isn't just words or ideas or opinions but it is a person. Jesus said you shall know THE TRUTH and it shall set you free. He goes on to say I AM THE WAY, THE TRUTH AND LIFE. So that truth is not some personal revelation but the person of Jesus. One of the reasons I love Christianity is that we can all be wrong and the scripture will be true if we genuinely study scripture we'll see that outside our preferences and background we can all arrive at a neutral ground that has Christ at the center. We grow in knowledge no doubt but there aren't any versions of Christ as believing that will make people heap up doctrines that fit their narrative. The scripture requires sound teaching to be understood, Paul said to study to show yourself approved by rightly dividing the word of truth. Our loyalty is to Christ and the word so any form of misrepresentation should be corrected
This man is here to make the crooked ways straight, they are not happy with him because he is spoiling the church business. But believe me, with time and consistency, he is going to change the narratives.
I don't see anything wrong with Tithe. ❤
Revelation 22:14-16 - Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city. For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.
The mistake made by Pastor Adeboye might not be intentional. As a reasonable and sensible preacher, Abel Damina should have written a personal letter to Adeboye for correction instead of coming out, and arrogantly attacking another pastor in public, all in the name of correction. Abel Damina is only looking at Adeboye's mistake, what about his good deeds? Thousands of generations of Abel Damina might not be able to achieve what God has used Adeboye to achieve in God's ministry.
You dey smoke liquid igbo
Adeboye apology ended with more percentage of tithe, very deceptive and confusing weak minds
For those who love Christ, there is no limit to what a true Christian will give - 10%, 20%, 30% etc. Money hungry people will fuss, argue, murmur, fight about 10% because they don't know HIM...
Well done 👍 sir. Respect 🫡
Global Papa teaching good 🎉🎉❤❤
When we gave we are saving into our heaven's savings account where we get blessings in return. My concerns about our so called pastors today is that you have widows, you have the poor, you have the needy in your churches but you spend huge amounts of money for affluent mundane things that will perish. Why not sell all and place it in the deacons charge to serve the body of Christ under your ministry?
Go into the church and see how much workers are getting paid by church... Is it because all are not be doctored online
Says sorry one can still be in heaven without tithe
Is tithe commanded by God, if it is commanded, if you disobey Gods commandment who are you…. What happens to who you are if you disobey?
Self righteousness,if you have children ask them to pay family tax it will help you
At least I listen well for the first time
There is a phenomenon in the Christian circle I called the "Dr Abel Damina effect"
Christ is ALL I need.
For people that love God, there is no controversy about tithing. Those who love God go way beyond 10%. "All that I am, I that I have" for the one who loved me and gave himself for me
Send me God's account number. Where do u send God's money again please. Let me give all that I have to him.
True some pastor will stop giving when they remove giving from ministry
Beloved, not true but the pastors serving Mammon would quit our pulpits because money is no longer involved! Take a queue from politics in Nigeria. People are rushing into it not because they truly want to serve the people but for the money politicians enjoy
He still didn't answer the simple question he was asked!
Tithe supercedes the law.
When Abraham gave tithes of all, there was no law.
Some people still say that tithe is composery siting Abraham. What they don't know is that, Abraham was not mandated to pay tithe to God or any priest. He took a decision to give one tenth of his spouse of war to Melchizedek who he sensed was a priest. Abraham got that practice from the pegan way of worship that he once belonged before God called him. In pegan worship, you meet a seer with a seer offering. And Abraham still practice such even after God called him. That's why everytime God meets with Abraham, he offers burnt offerings to God, because that's a practice he learnt in his life as once a pegan worshipper before God called him and which was not a sin still practicing such way of giving even after he left pegan worship when he meets with someone who he sensed to be a seer or prophet or priest. It's just like some Muslims who pray five times a day. When they come to Jesus, most of them still keep that practice of praying five times a day which is not a sin, and this time, their prayers is to Jesus and no longer to Allah.
True talk sir
If you see Jesus, money will los value
Apologize to Abel Damina? Dey mumu Una self. Baba only correct what he needs to correct. Na very bold step. He is going small small he is trying to make everything straight. Dey there dey open mouth anyhow
But not just believe there should an act
You are looking like your Jesus that's why you are been persecuted.... God bless you sir
well said.
The tithe is wot the pastors use to live their lifestyle.. all in Gods name.... anything frm God is free
For fake pastors not for the called& genuine men of God.
As an Evangelist,who dont even collect tithes,once I go out to do God's work, people bless me and even now that I am a pastor,God moved people to bless me& even give me a monthly allowance without coercion.
In every area of life,there are fake& there a genuine ones.
Bro there are ppl who are genuine and called by God, people give to these men as appreciation for their works, they don't live on tithe....
You don't merge the false and those who are truely serving God
Bro a gunine man of God does not place much importance of materials things even if u been gifted... it's called Vanity wen u die u can't go to heaven with them.....99.5% so called men of God check what they put on their feet... wake up read Ur bible and follow & follow the 2 greatest commandment
