Tithes, Offerings Do Not Go To Heaven- Abel Damina
THECONSCIENCE NG reports that the founder and President of Abel Damina Ministries International (ADMI), Dr. Abel Damina, has sparked controversy following a statement during a recent sermon, in which he claimed that offerings given in church do not go to heaven.
In a now-viral video clip, Damina asserted that contrary to what many preachers teach, offerings are spent by men on earth and does not go to heaven.
He said: “No offering goes to heaven; men spend it every time we gather offerings in this church. All the offerings we give to God go to men.
“Even those tithe mongers that say when you pay tithe, the doors of heaven will open, the doors have been opened since Jesus rose from the dead, the doors have never been closed. They are just working on people’s minds.
“I heard some of them saying I am evil because I said you should not pay tithe, and someone said ‘he and his children would pay tithe’. He has to talk like that to keep collecting from people. If he doesn’t talk like that people will stop giving him.
“And I won’t be surprised if he is not paying tithes to anybody. Most are greedy; they collect from everybody but don’t pay anybody. I was there. There is nothing you will tell me that I don’t know because there is nothing new under the sun.”
