NextGovernor:]] Don't make false allegations. Which church make billions of naira monthly? Who told you that tithes and offering are spent by Pastors?.......Do a diligent background check , and you will discover the bitter truth about church finance. How many churches have one thousand branches in Nigeria? Maybe one church out of tens of thousands. Assumption is never a mark of intelligence. Church isn't a business center...It is where people give voluntarily for the work of God.......The folks in church are not fools and most of the critics of the church folks are not in any way better or fulfilled in life than those who give in church..........We have less than 20 churches in Nigeria that are financially buoyant.......The few ones that appear ok are doing even more than some state governments who rake in billions monthly apart from allocations.........Enough of all these allegations against church especially when you have no fact to back it up. 1 Like |

dangoteinlaw: For your information. I am not a bloody Muslim. I want the government to tax both Churches and mosques. Those fools are making so much money. And contributing nothing to the economy. But churches are the worst. Yahoo pastors everywhere. And for your information again. Lagos governments are working on it. Because they are all constituting public nuisance. So be on the lookout.. 1 Like |

Lilimax: Let me make you understand To become rich in life is not what the body of Christ should be preaching. Jesus Christ didn't die on the cross so that you can be a billionaire. When you seek God, he will bless you with the desires of your heart (including the money you are looking for). You cant bribe him with some money to make you rich. Your main goal is to seek the kingdom of God and not money. Matthew 6:33 - But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. 2 Likes |

LastDays777:Bros read your Bible well okay. 2 Corinthians 8:9 (KJV): For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich It is folks like you that make most Pastors preach prosperity massage so as to know you're already rich in Christ Jesus |

Nana Mr President. Go and ask question about those that turn there back from God,when they think they have arrived. You should have use this massage during your campaign and see if you had win election. My advice to you is to face your job as a president, rather than looking for church to task. Is those paying and giving offering in Churches, not paying task. Or you want to task Churches to stop they teaching people there is a way of prosperity through the doing of the word of God. Mr president, churches are not industry, and do not try to frustrate church or God will frustrate you. A word is enough for the wise. |

Lilimax: No sister, you are getting it wrong again. Let's look at that verse again. Look at bolded. "Though he was rich". Was our lord Jesus Christ rich when he was on earth? No. But he is rich in his kingdom and a king. It's referring to heavenly riches. Remember that story in the bible where Jesus told a very rich man to give everything you have to the poor and follow him. Why will Jesus ask him to do that. He knows that when you give to the poor, you are also accumulating a lot of wealth in the heavenly realm. Jesus Christ main goal is NOT to make us rich here on earth. And that's the simple truth. Everything here on earth is temporary and will pass away. Fight to be rich in his kingdom. This is not his kingdom. 1 Like |

Re: Churches Preaching Prosperity May Soon Attract Tax In Ghana by walebs147: 6:26pm On Aug 30, 2018 |
The reason why it can't happen in Nigeria is that Nigeria is a plural nation. When a government constrains churches to pay tax, it would extend to mosques because Christians would want religious equity. If the same is done to mosques, Muslims would also want religious equity. If allowed, it might lead to violence. So to maintain peace, let taxation on churches and/or mosques be left aside. |

LastDays777: You know my mother was a Christian she grew up in a small town in Arkansas, USA. I was born in this small town yet my mother raised us up in the city. I never went to Church growing up and I was always into trouble. Anyway I asked my mother why our family didn't attend church like the others and her reply was that she didn't know these people. It was years later, once I became a Muslim, I was aware of all the wickedness that goes on in these churches. I mean I know the pastors were pimps, I knew the women in churches were loose, and I knew most of the men were sodomites. Yet I didn't know most of these pastors were Freemasons and Freemasonry is the Illuminati. The Illuminati is running most of the churches everywhere. Most of the politicians are Illuminati Freemasons. So it doesn't really matter who gets the money the Church or the Tax man because it will end up in the hands of the Illuminati. This is world is long beyond gone to hell. There are people born with no souls and they are running everything! I pray for the End of World. 1 Like |
