The General Overseer of Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) Pastor Enoch Adeboye popularly known as Daddy GO says it is wrong to limit believers to ten percent of tithing.
Adeboye had previously preached that paying tithe was one of the prerequisites for going to heaven.
However, in a video trending on social media, Adeboye while addressing his congregation tendered an apology, saying his earlier claim was a mistake.
Speaking at a youth conference, the man of God shared more light on the tithing message, Pastor Adeboye said it is wrong to limit believers to 10% when some of them are supposed to do 20%, 30%, 40%.
“10% is supposed to be for beginners. I believe God will give me the opportunity very soon to give you the details.”
He said for anyone who wants to be at the top, anyone who wants to control finances, the person will go far beyond 10% and it is wrong for me to tell you to do 10%.”
He continues, “It is possible to be right and wrong at the same time. I will prove it to you. I’m a scientist so I know that for years we thought that light travels straight
“Later on we discovered light travels in waves. It is wrong to limit you to 10 percent when someone is talking of 20, 30, 40 percent. 10 percent should be for beginners I believe God will give me an opportunity very soon to give you the details.”
In the same breath, Adeboye said it is wrong to limit some of his church members to 10% when they should be paying 20% or 30% as tithe. He said 10% should be for beginners.
