Bishop Oyedepo Sparks Debate About Tithing On Twitter Again!

– Bishop Oyedepo tithing tweet sparks controversy on Twitter

Many users on Twitter have disagreed with Bishop David Oyedepo following a tweet he shared to backup the importance and biblical implication of tithing.

The presiding bishop of Faith Tabernacle David Oyedepo shared a tweet where he discussed the importance of tithing. He stated that anyone who doesn’t pay tithe is “under a financial curse” and can never prosper.

“Tithing is an inescapable covenant obligation. Prosperity not just wealth is impossible without tithing, because when you’re not paying your tithe, you’re under a financial curse. #Tithe #Breakinglimits.” The man of God tweeted.

In response to the tweet, a user said:

“Tithing cannot create wealth! Wealth creation occurs when you deploy capital to create value. When X gives 1/10 of his earnings to your church, there’s no production or investment, thus he has not created value, but only enriched you. Tithing is a church sponsored ponzi scheme..”

While some clearly backed the man of God and even stated the financial benefits that comes with the act of tithing, others argued that the only thing that can guarantee proper financial breakthrough is investment not tithing.

Bishop Oyedepo said not paying your tithe brings financial curse; Daddy Freeze say na Lie

You people will now fight over their opinion as if the Bible was written for them alone

If tithing works for you, pay it
If tithing na scam, jump & pass

Just dont force your opinion on me

Tithing as one of the keys to financial prosperity is powerful. But don't just tithe because your pastor said so, understand the revelation behind it and apply it. And oh don't be swayed by those who oppose it, the principles of governance in our kingdom can't be same as theirs!

I'm not a Pastor nor from a Pastoral home but John Rockefeller, one of the richest men to live on this planet, tithed 10 percent of his income to his church ever since his first paycheck.

It is however a personal conviction. I can also supply you a list of tithing billionaires
