“Prosperity not just wealth is impossible without tithing”- argument ensues as Oyedepo says prosperity is impossible without tithing

Written by on July 17, 2020

The founder of Winners’ Chapel International, David Oyedepo took to the Twitter page to give reasons why people should pay tithes and why many people are under a financial curse.

In his tweet, he mentions that anyone who doesn’t pay tithe is “under a financial curse” and can never prosper and this has led to an argument.

“Tithing is an inescapable covenant obligation. Prosperity not just wealth is impossible without tithing because when you’re not paying your tithe, you’re under a financial curse. #Tithe #Breakinglimits.”

A PhD candidate at Edinburgh University disagreed with Oyedepo, writing: “Tithing cannot create wealth! Wealth creation occurs when you deploy capital to create value. When X gives 1/10 of his earnings to your church, there’s no production or investment, thus he has not created value, but only enriched you. Tithing is a church-sponsored Ponzi scheme..”

Twitter users have now taken sides, some with Oyedepo and others with the PhD candidate.
