Pastor Adeboye apologised for his tithe teaching

Recall that months ago that the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, had tendered an apology for his previous teaching on tithing.

The cleric, before the viral apology, had preached that tithing was a prerequisite to make heaven. Backtracking on his tithing teaching, Adeboye said:

"I’m apologizing for making a mistake. For saying that If you don’t pay tithe, you might not make it to heaven.' I’m sorry, that’s wrong, and it’s not in the Bible. What the Bible says is, 'be at peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see God."

Adeboye's apology sparked reactions from Catholics, Christians and pastors alike, as tithing has been a hot topic in the Nigerian christendom.

Speaking with Legit.ng, a Catholic priest, known online as Fada Kay, faulted Adeboye's apology. In his words:

Though he began by saying that he was sorry for teaching that those who don't pay tithe might not make heaven, since the Bible does not teach this, it turned out that his apology was for 'limiting' his members to 10 percent.
"He explained further that some ought to pay more than ten percent. I personally didn't know what to make of the apology from the video clip I saw."
