Nigerian online commentator Vincent Martins Otse, known as VeryDarkMan, has responded to Pastor Adeboye’s recent apology regarding tithes.
The RCCG pastor recently addressed his previous statement, where he said that those who do not pay tithes would not enter heaven. He admitted he was mistaken and expressed his regret.
After the apology video gained popularity online, it caught the eye of many Nigerians, including VeryDarkMan.
The online critic, recognized for his unique opinions on current issues, questioned Pastor Adeboye and other ministers about what else in the Bible they might have influenced their followers to accept.
He is especially looking forward to hearing from Pastor David Ibiyeomie, who is known for his teachings on tithing. The critic expressed satisfaction that Adeboye addressed the topic, as he is seen as a leading figure in Christianity among Nigerians.
He said:
“I’m really happy about what Papa Adeboye just revealed, so I’m waiting for all those pastors, the likes of David Ibiyeomie that are always preaching about tithes. The number one man of all the religious church people in Nigeria has come out to apologise that he’s sorry for saying that if you don’t pay tithes you will not make heaven, that it’s not in the bible. Which other things have they told us that is not in the bible? That’s what I’m concerned about. Which other things have they told the people that is not in the bible? How many things have they manipulated that are not in the bible? I am glad Papa Adeboye came out now to say these things.”
VDM talked about pastors who refuse to apologize for their views on tithing, especially after Pastor Adeboye did. He believes these individuals have distorted God’s message to fit their own agenda, claiming that religion has clouded our judgment in Africa.
“Imagine the ones that will not come out and apologise? Imagine the ones that have manipulated the minds of people, that have converted and twisted the right words and the right message of the bible to suit their own narrative? I am happy this came from the number one man. Religion has blinded us in Africa and I will keep on talking about how messed up religion has put us in. Eyes will be opened. Tomorrow I am waiting for the one that will tell us to forget all these prayers o, prayer no go move Nigeria forward o.”
VDM stated that he wishes Pastor Adeboye will use the tithes gathered previously to benefit the people of Nigeria. He added that Pastor Adeboye’s position on tithing confirms that Abel Damina has been correct all this time.
In his words:
“I hope all the tithes that were collected that period of time, I just hope God will touch Papa so that they use it to do something that will benefit the people of the country. I am waiting for all those pastors wey dey use that same format to take collect tithes and offering, wey dey use am pack money, that means Abel Damina had been right all along. I’m just waiting for the likes of David Ibiyeomie. Now my question is which other bible verse or message have they manipulated to suit their own narrative? This goes to show that a lot of these pastors twist the bible to suit a certain narrative that they want to push out there. I am happy that the man that is seen as the number one when it comes to religion have come out to say these things that he’s sorry and I love him more for that. Make una sha just open una eyes. Christianity is there but the scammers are more than the real people preaching. Most of these popular ones are big scammers.”
