If Your Pastor Is Richer Than You, He/She Is A Fraud by dare2think: 3:48pm On Apr 15, 2011
If your Pastor/Reverend/Bishop or whatever title they give themselves is richer than you, and he/she/they did not have a profitable Business or (indepedent financially) prior to starting the church, then he is a Fraud. angry


Please prove me wrong.

If pastors can use the verses below to claim that tithing was before the law and for this reason they can collect tithes when the event below related to the people and goods of Sodom and Gomorrah, then these pastors that collect tithes today are Fraud stars and not followers of Jesus.

{
Genesis 14
18. And Melchizedek king of Salem brought forth bread and wine: and he was the priest of the most high God.

19. And he blessed him, and said, Blessed be Abram of the most high God, possessor of heaven and earth:

20. And blessed be the most high God, which hath delivered thine enemies into thy hand. And he gave him tithes of all.
}

{
Genesis 14
21 The king of Sodom said to Abram, “Give me the people and keep the goods for yourself.”

22 But Abram said to the king of Sodom, “With raised hand I have sworn an oath to the LORD, God Most High, Creator of heaven and earth,

23 that I will accept nothing belonging to you, not even a thread or the strap of a sandal, so that you will never be able to say, ‘I made Abram rich.’

24 I will accept nothing but what my men have eaten and the share that belongs to the men who went with me—to Aner, Eshkol and Mamre. Let them have their share.”

nonsense argument. go and read mal 3:6-11

6For I am the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed.

7Even from the days of your fathers ye are gone away from mine ordinances, and have not kept them. Return unto me, and I will return unto you, saith the LORD of hosts. But ye said, Wherein shall we return?

[b][b] 8Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee? In tithes and offerings.

9Ye are cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed me, even this whole nation.

10Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.

11And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, saith the LORD of hosts.

Meanwhile, you except someone that serves the living God who owns the heaven and earth to be poor when he said the silver and Gold are mine.

In a church that has good structure, the pastor doesnt see the ur peanut tithe. he only does on paper.
people bless the men of God by Prophets offering and some of them have businesses here and there.


Go and repent.

I really question your morality, and i'm surprised at some of your comments.

Pls tell me, what is wrong in alerting fellow people to raise their consciousness about fraudulent pastors? Are you one of them?

Someone said he raised the dead on nairaland you jumped to his defence

Someone warns other people about fraudulent pastors you say "wetin we no go hear for nairaland"

Pls whose side are you on? undecided

Pls read the first post.

To answer your question, no.

Why, he already has a job and he is very independent therefore not enriching himself from you and your congregations sweats.

He becomes a Fraud if he starts accumulating from you or the congregations labour.
