Well, this is according to a member of the House on the Rock church
in Lagos who shared excerpts of Pastor Paul Adefarasin's teaching on the
very controversial topic, Tithing, in church today. Read the excerpts
as shared by Makua Eyisi on his Facebook wall below
'Today, for the first time (in my hearing), My Pastor taught us about
Tithing from the New Testament point of view and it was awesome.
Here are excerpts;
You don’t have to pay tithe in this new covenant.
Tithing will not make you a Millionaire.
You don’t pay tithe to be blessed. You are already blessed. Tithing is a faith response to the blessing.
Abraham paid tithe after he was blessed not so that he would be blessed.
Abraham paid tithe to Melchidezek who was a high priest. We pay to
Christ who is also our High Priest after the order of Melchizedek.
Tithing is an honour system. It began before the law. In the law, if
you don’t pay, you are cursed. In this new covenant era, even if you
don’t pay, there is no curse. There is no curse for the Child of God in
Christ. Only blessings.
He added; I don’t like teaching Tithing to babies. That’s not what
they need. They need Christ and more of him for when they become mature,
Tithing will not be an issue for them. They know the source of their
wealth.
Faith without works is dead. He who does not work, let him not eat. Work.
Read Hebrews 5, 7 and more. We opened plenty scriptures today.
It’s good to have a Pastor who understands the Bible but it’s better to have a Pastor who is intelligent as well.
Church was beautiful today. Awesome from start to end.
Paul Adefarasin (Paul of Lagos) is My Pastor.
