brokoto: how many times will you post this thing? it is when people dispute whatever your revered MOG saya you'll now come here and tell us that it is a spiritual message that carnal minds cant understand. my own take in this matter is simple, if you want wealth you should work hard and work smart whether you believe in God or not. your reason for serving God should not be to gain material benefits, it should out of love and the desire to make paradise. give out your own free will whatever is most comfortable for you not out of compulsion, threat, promises or because you want money doubling. . .

ehie: According to the Chinukh, the unique sanctity of the Temple demands a more perfect ethical
standard. While God permits taking spoils during military combat under certain circumstances, this
type of acquisition nevertheless clashes with the idyllic atmosphere that is to characterize the "House
of God." Therefore, those who serve God at that site and bear the responsibility of creating and
maintaining this atmosphere of peace, serenity and ethical perfection, are excluded from the
distribution of booty

m.k.o2005:

These are kingdom messages.It will for sure be difficult to understand when you look at it carnally or trying to use the earthly wisdom.There are people who stay in church all their life or have a good relationship with God but scarcely receive financial blessings from God.
The kingdom is tied to principles and it takes the grace of God to identify those kingdom principles.Another grace to hear or be among men of God who teach this kingdom principles and a greater grace to adhere to those kingdom principles.

Its obvious that you have a ready made template to dish out to those who question your spurious claims. I'll leave you to your belief but know this I'm also a xtain who is deeply grounded in theological studies. I knw my left frm my right. Peace.
PST.Adeboye who has always maintained a biblical stands on issues all along has now tried to bring the word of God to the levels that even a lay man will understand and adhere to with the help of the power of the holy spirit and will have no reason to be tied down financially.

Hear instruction and be wise, and do not neglect it.-Proverbs 8:33.

For some of us here,we may see it as scam,some will see it as the word of God and will tap into it and you see them moving up the FINANCIAL LADDER while their SALVATION is still not threatened. -Luke 6:38''give, and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you'' He used this scripture in teaching financial upliftment.He has also used this scripture to teach love.In the area of finance,he is saying that what you give is what you get.
(1 Corinthians 9:11If we have sown spiritual seed among you, is it too much if we reap material benefits from you?)This was the exact saying of apostle paul to the corinthians regarding men of God receiving from the church members or people who listen to their messages.But i know ofcourse if pastors start to speak this way people might say they are being greedy and scamers.
But regarding whether it is proper to teach seed sowing so as to receive from God,let's see the following scriptures:

''The point is this: whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.-2 Corinthians 9:6
''Do not be deceived: God is not mocked, for whatever one sows, that will he also reap.-Galatians 6:7
''In the morning sow your seed, and at evening withhold not your hand, for you do not know which will prosper, this or that, or whether both alike will be good-Ecclessiastes 11:6
''And Isaac sowed in that land and reaped in the same year a hundredfold. The Lord blessed him,Gen.26:12
''One gives freely, yet grows all the richer; another withholds what he should give, and only suffers want. Whoever brings blessing will be enriched, and one who waters will himself be watered.-Proverbs 11:24-25
''While the earth remains, seed time and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night, shall not cease.-Gen 8:22
''He who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will supply and multiply your seed for sowing and increase the harvest of your righteousness.-2CORINTHIANS 9:10
''They sow fields and plant vineyards and get a fruitful yield.-Psalm 107:37
''Truly, truly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit. .-John 12:24
Well going by the above,i think there is nothing wrong bringing out all that matters in the holy scriptures regarding wealth building. Pst.Adeboye only came down for all to understand so as not to deprive anyone from receiving that which God has made available for his children.I have read about Pst Adeboye saying that if you are an unbeliever and tithe or sow seeds or even bring offerings unto God,you are wasting your time according to the scriptures.
Having said all these,i think there is absolutely nothing wrong teaching seed sowing in any way you like.Just give and you will receive.If you give SHEKELS,you will receive SHEKELS.If you give NAIRA you will receive NAIRA.If you give DOLLARS,u will receive DOLLARS.If you give EURO,you will receive EURO.If you give pounds,you will receive POUNDS.If you DON'T give,you WILL NOT receive.If you give and dnt believe you will receive,you will not receive.If you dnt give at all,you will not receive at all.
BUT NOTE;YOU CAN RECEIVE FROM DEVIL BUT YOU DNT HAVE TO GIVE TO GOD or MAN to receive from the devil.
God bless us.

Thanks Ehie. I really appreciate this. I would do some additional research to be better educated in this area of practice the modern christian as abandoned.
I feel people would prefer to continue to lose than to admit that they've been losing all along. Such is the way of man.

oloto: Please, let's be careful about the way we abuse d men of God. If you don't like their message, free them. Its is better for us not to judge that we ourselves might not be judged. Remember, His word says that we shouldn't touch His annointed. Moreover, if pastors preach God's word for their personal gain, it is still Gods word. Not your own. So, let Him deal with them himself.

acidtalk: And all you do with the seed is to buy Private jets and build universities.


Greedy and deceitful men using the name of God to lie.

banks1: And out of all 365 messages in the Open heaven which has been published for over ten years, only one makes it to nairaland and majority of you lambast this man on this one message; not the one of yesterday neither the one of last month nor the one three years ago. If you guys are really itching for the truth go to the bible and see if what our humble Adeboye preaches is contrary to it.

curfew: there are some biblical words or language which the bible itself defines. for example the word 'seed' means sperm, or the gospel. the seed of ... means the son of ... to sow seed means to preach the gospel. sowing of seed has nothing to do with giving or receiving of money or any belonging. there are others words such as corn, fig, eagle, horse, salt, fire, gold, etc. the bible defines the words and uses them in no ordinary or literal meaning.

in nigeria people are ignorant and they can easily be deceived in the name of anything called god.

rusher14:
so I put it to you that Malachi 3 that your MOG's love to peddle and even their most cherished immunity clause: 1 Chronicles 16: 22 are Babylonian in origin. I do understand you though some think that God can be bribed some others don't.

GIVING: WHAT CONTAINER?

If you know the power of your seed, you will not joke with it; you will also not hide it. Another principle of giving is that God uses your measure to Him to give back to you. You will only be expecting God to become a magician if you expect a different measure. God is no magician, He multiplies what you give to Him but He does not change the container. Luke 6:38.

Dollar is a measure, Naira is another measure, Euro is another and Pounds is another measure. If you want returns in Dollars, sow in Dollars. Do not sow in Naira and be expecting a harvest in Euro. It does not work like that.

You can be in any country and sow in the particular currency in which you want your harvest. Sow and keep on sowing in that currency. By the time your harvest comes, you will celebrate. In addition, the various denominations of each currency are different measures too. Take for instance the Nigeria Naira, you have N1000, N500, N200, N100, N50, N20, N10 and N5 notes. It is the particular denomination that you use that God will multiply and return to you. If you keep using the smallest of the denominations and think you are thrifty or wise, you are only limiting yourself. Do yourself a favour by using the biggest denominations so as to get the greatest harvest.

Sometimes however, when you sow in a foreign currency, God may give you the harvest in a local currency for a reason. But if you check the value and compare with what you sowed, you will know that God knows how to calculate value in any currency.

How often do you sow? The key to your financial breakthrough is in your hands. If you fail to use it, nothing will be delivered to you but if you use it very well, your life will turn around for good.

Bidam: point of correction..Men of God lyk pst Enoch Adeboye dnt peddle scriptures..they speak by d inspiration of d Holy Spirit..d babylonian system am reffering to is not d ancient babylon but d wordly systems operating in d earth..u err not knowin scriptures nor d power of it..the letter killeth but d Spirit giveth life..may God open ur eyes

Bidam: Depends on how u see this message...God message is multifaceted and multi-dimensional. Adeboye may be talking abt naira and dollars as seeds but seeds can be ur time, energy and resources u put in a particular venture d quality of ur time determines d quality of ur harvest..in spiritual realm jus lyk d earthly realm currency is d rule of d game and wen i mean currency it is just not only money but consistency,persistency and perseverance in ur goals and pursuit for a better future and destiny. Peace.

jp philips:


shut up!!!

Adeboye has defined his seed, don't force words into his mouth. his seed is nothing but money, little wonder he cared less about volunteers who used their energy to build his university.

Maxymilliano: I was quite dumbfounded when I read the hard copy of the post, this is just prosperity message taken too far, I never knew God moves around with calculator monitoring the currencies in which the numerous and assorted seeds are collected in His name. God must sure be a business man.

m.k.o2005:

Knowing the truth is what i seek my friend ! I only want us to see that it isn't out of place scripturally to sow and reap. If you choose to work hard and smart to earn a living and praise yourself for your hard and smart work leaving God out of it,it's left for you. But i have chosen to work,pray,pray and sow as if i have got no need of the seed i sow,all to the glory of God.
''The man without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned.''1 Corinthians 2:14

It is difficult for canal minds to understand spiritual things for it takes a fool to please God !
See the story of GOD,Abraham and Isaac on the Journey to Mount Moriah !

larrymoore: yes! Is a campaign to raise more money 4 God so dat He can build a befitten Heaven 4 pastors. One world divergent views.

spartanian:
its per annum (session) not per semester

Bidam: . Dont mind dis pathologically lazy jobless folks bro..people who make news dont watch them..where d time to watch news dey sef..Adeboye has affected millions of lives by his message and humility..d more d critics d greater d glory and open heavens..had d devil known he wouldnt ave crucified d Lord of glory.
