God Didn’t Ask for Your Salary, Your Church Did

Let’s stop lying in the name of God.

God never asked you to drop your 10 percent salary at the altar, Your pastor did. Your church did, the same church that owns a school you can’t afford, a jet you’ll never enter, and an estate you’re not holy enough to visit.

Yet every month, you drop your hard-earned income in tithe baskets like it’s a heavenly tax not because you understand why, but because you’re afraid not to.

They told you if you don’t pay your tithe, your car will break down, your womb won’t open, your business will collapse. You’ll “rob God.” But read your Bible properly.

Tithes in scripture were not money. They were crops, grains, livestock, which were meant to feed widows, orphans, and strangers, Not to fund luxury.

Jesus never collected tithes, not even once did he in his entire teachings encourage his disciples to do so But somehow, your pastor’s entire theology revolves around this one Old Testament law and conveniently skips all the others.

You eat shrimp, wear mixed fabrics, have your beard, those were also laws existed under the law of Moses yet no one’s preaching hellfire for those. Why is it only the one that brings money to the pulpit that’s non-negotiable?

Because it’s not about doctrine. It’s about revenue, thier bank account and their assets.

Let’s be honest many churches in Nigeria today function like tax-exempt businesses, not spiritual hospitals. The congregation is the cash cow, the pastor is the CEO, and the Holy Ghost is the marketing strategy. They pressure the poor to sow seeds while their own children school in Canada and do ministry with iPhones.

And the worst part? There’s no accountability. No audited financials. No welfare systems. No outreach. Just buildings, branches, and branded bottles of anointing oil for ₦10,000.

This isn’t about bitterness. It’s about boldness. If your faith is making you poorer and your pastor richer, something is wrong. If you give but can’t question where it goes, you’re not a partner .

God isn’t your landlord collecting 10% rent on life. If you want to give, give Generously, freely but don’t let guilt, fear, or misquoted verses rob you blind.

Because God didn’t ask for your salary.

Your church did.
