Article of faith: The new tithing scam from thief and robber pastors, By Femi Aribisala

I wrote in 2013 that: “every Pastor who collects tithes is a thief and a robber.” I was roundly excoriated by the thieves and robbers. But it has been a losing battle for them.The psalmist says to God: “The entrance of Your words gives light; it gives understanding to the simple.”As more and more light has been shed by the light of the world, more and more Christians have been released from the captivity of pastors operating from dens of thieves.

Jesus said: “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you shut up the kingdom of heaven against men; for you neither go in yourselves, nor do you allow those who are entering to go in.”The MOG’s desperation reminds me of a story I heard about another pastor who says it is a sin for women to wear trousers. One day, he was praying for some people to receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit when a particular lady he prayed for immediately received the gift of speaking in tongues.

“‘And now, O priests, this commandment is for you. If you will not hear, and if you will not take it to heart, to give glory to My name,’ says the Lord of hosts, ‘I will send a curse upon you, and I will curse your blessings. Yes, I have cursed them already, because you do not take it to heart.’”So, they said those who do not pay tithes would be cursed. But God would never curse Israel, for God would never curse those He has already blessed.

Should we now believe that they have seen the light when it is no longer convenient for them to peddle the lies of the past? I do not think so.It is human to be mistaken and then see the error of our ways. But the mistakes become cynical when they are to our profit. The corrections also become suspect when we offer no apologies for past errors, but now promote new self-serving principles.
