‘Christians Are To Give Willing & Not Forced To Give’ – Bishop Mike Okonkwo

According to the Presiding Bishop of The Redeemed Evangelical Mission (TREM), people should pay their tithes from a place of love, not fear.

In a clip, posted on Twitter by Daddy Freeze, Bishop Okonkwo says, “All those fighting them with curse, I have done that before. I was fighting people because I didn’t know any better.”

In a video making the rounds on social media, Bishop Mike Okonkwo admitted he had in the time past preached frightening messages to his congregation just to get them to pay their tithes. He admitted that pastors conjur all kinds of things just to get their members to give tithe.

”If you don’t tithe, things will be tight for you” he listed this and some others as the erroneous words clergymen say to get their members frightened to give their tithe.

He went on to add that Christians are to give to God willingly and not be cajoled or forced to give.
