The General Overseer of The Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye, has broken silence on recent statements made by controversial online personality, Daddy Freeze regarding the payment of tithes.

The OAP had said, “No Nigerian prophet or pastor or GO qualifies to receive your tithes!

“Tithes were only meant for the Levites who were descendants of Levi, son of Jacob and Leah, no one else! These Levites are still around in Israel today.

“Levites were not allowed to own anything, not houses, not lands or cars and DEFINITELY NOT PRIVATE JETS!

“The tithes were only paid once every 3 years in the year of the tithe; Deut 14:27; NOT EVERY MONTH!

“Only 10% of the tithe was meant for the temple; Nehemiah 10:38; the rest was meant for the sick, homeless, strangers, widows and orphans NOT PASTORS!

“The tithe was never money, IT WAS FOODSTUFF!

“The tithe was meant to be eaten with our families in the house of God.

“It is biblical to sell your tithe and buy beer and drink in the house of God. Deut 14:26”.

In reaction, Adeboye advised Christians on the dangers attached to none compliance to paying of tithe.

In his sermon tagged: Breaking Forth at the national headquarters of the church, Throne of Grace Parish in Ebute-Meta, Lagos, Adeboye warned Freeze against attracting the curse of God.

He said “Avoid divine curse like a plaque, somebody show me something on the internet on the question of paying tithe or not and the fellow said tithe is supposed to be used to buy alcohol and drink in the church.

“Now you know who is talking, even mad people will not come to church to drink alcohol, no matter how crazy that fellow is, asked him to come to church and drink beer, he will tell you that he is not that crazy, because even in his madness, he knows that it is the house of God and he will refuse to do such thing. But this fellow said otherwise that tithe ought to be used to drink alcohol.

“I know who is talking and I did not want to worry myself about such person. But please do not let anybody get you into trouble by attracting God’s curse to yourself, please pay your tithe.

“I have said it before and I will say it again and again, if your physical father curses you, it can be cancelled by your spiritual father, if your spiritual father curses you, it can be cancelled by the General Overseer, if your general overseer curses you, you can fast and pray to your father in heaven but if God curses you, where will you go?” he asked.
