The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has sheds light on why Jesus and his apostles didn’t collect tithes.
Speaking during the October edition of the RCCG Holy Ghost Service, Adeboye said: “One of my pastors went online and preached a sermon on why people should not pay tithes. I watched the sermon, thinking I would learn something profound.
He said we shouldn’t pay tithes because Jesus didn’t collect tithes. I said, ah, Jesus was not a parish pastor, He was a world evangelist.
Forgive me for saying so, but it was a very shallow sermon. Jesus was not a parish pastor; He was a world evangelist.
The Bible in Luke 8:1-3 tells us that certain women, including Mary Magdalene, Joanna, and Susanna, supported His ministry financially.”
