As you go to church today ask your Nigerian pastor what the church do use tithe and offering for then see his response...

oloriooko:
OP FYI all churches are registered as NGO which must be audited and account for every penny received and spent to the govt. The letter you received detailing their account are evidences for audit report. And as an NGO you are non profit and mandated to run programs helping the needy and poor. The govt closely monitors your activities and expects the church to keep to all stipulated rules and regulations guiding NGOs.
Check the whole of UK how many churches do you see boasting of massive buildings except the very old orthodox churches
So church in the UK is a helping non profit group.

Is it an inferiority complex of the black man or just an outright "village boy" mentality that makes them disparage anything Nigeria at the slightest opportunity when they just land US or Europe.

While it's reasonable to give accounts for how money is spent anywhere, a church is not Biblically compelled to do so. The Church is built on trust. There are many risks and sacrifices that pastors would take for church members sef that based solely on nothing else but trust.

TRUST is the bane of the assembly of the local church. Trust for God and His men. So giving account is good. But I don't need my pastor to give account to me when I give in the church. That's the church where I'm being blessed. My giving there is in thanksgiving to God and in response to my trust for HIM and the men He has chosen to lead me.

Mind you, there are hundreds of churches in Nigeria that do exactly what he's exalting "oyibo" for. Many of the orthodox churches and even some pentecostals.

Eraddray:
you are very right, just yesterday, someone was telling me how ECWA will account for every penny they receive And announce it to the whole congregation

Kaczynski:
Demolish all churches in the south and convert those buildings to vocational rehabilitation centers


See as naija GDP skyrockets instantly

Appeal To Our Beloved:
•Mr Adepoju,you are free to stay in your house whenever you come back to Nigeria,for Nigerian Churches will continue to March Forward and the gates of hell will not prevail.
-Nigerian Churches are not NGOs, neither do Govt gives them Sisi( Kobo) as supporting funds, and those Churches abroad have been existing since generations and must blend with the rules of times in their respective Countries.
-For your information,there are many Churches in Nigeria, feeding the Orphans,the weak,the feeble, and those in Prisons, steadily.Some have Mission Outreaches,they Clothes the Naked, home and Abroad,Feed Beggars,Feed the Widows,etc!
For example,I know those Churches that Cooks good,every Weekdays and Weekend and Served the Prisoners, even though, I'm not in that Church.
What is more Accountable - is it until they show you the Statement of Accounts on how they Spent your Money? How do you make Heaven with this attitude?
•My Money Is My Money Attitude and you think you are growing in Faith?
Much as I know that some Churches are for the belly ,but not ALL,so why the Comparison of how they spent the Church Money?
-Don't be like those condemning the Churches because they wants to used them during Elections and the Nigerian Churches refused them,now they are saying all manners of accusations, against the Church Leaders.
•The Church Mandate is to Win More Souls for Christ ,which You should be be part,but if you follow those who wants to know how your Money is Spent,then ,go and read more of the Bible for Guidance and Counseling on the Churches Growth.
Remember those you are entertaining here on Social Media are neither believers nor want it well,with the Church.
May you know the Truth and the Truth Set You Free.
Leave the Pastors for God's Judgement,after all,you are not the one that Call them,not those on the Social Media,for their grievous condemnation.
Remain Blessed.

Every public holiday they must take advantage and hold a program. Church is just a business.

OriOko88:

englishmart:
Most Nigerian Christians are too arrogant, dumb and toxic. That's a combination akin to the mixture of yam, akamu and rice for brunch. I don't argue with them abeg. Before they send down fire like Elijah allegedly did.

Pastor for Nigeria or africa na hustlers. Now church na everyday service. Mondays for counseling, Tuesday for demon expelling Wednesday for fruit of womb,, Thursday for marriage seminar . Friday to Sunday na usual service all raise to power fund collection.

erico2k2:

Does anyone on thier own open a new Anglican church in one corner? NO, these are the traditional churches and we should go back to them not these new John 3.16 churches

ivolt:

Have you wondered why people are leaving Anglican and other traditional churches
in droves to the so-called John 3:16 if they are so perfect?

Even in the Oyibo countries, these traditional churches are being
closed down every year because attendees keep leaving in droves.

So why do some Christians prefer "thief" churches, don't you find that interesting?

....Laslas a no kuku dey attend church again

malvisguy212:
say something about politics, some will believe and some will not. say something about sports, some will believe and some will not. but say something about the church or pastors. everybody will believe without even confirming the authenticity of the news.... I'm not defending pastors , there are lots of fake pastors as well as fake politicians. but the morden world seems to have one goal towards the church . HATE!!! , that is why they can unite when it's comes to criticize the church.

Lezzlie:
your statement which is a general knowledge seems as if it's justifying the theft and lack of accountability in many Nigerian churches.
