You are wrong on tithing Pastor Peter Sematimba

Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver. (2 Corinthians 9:7)


On his ‘living in prosperity’ programme on UBC Pastor Sematimba has been propagating the heresy that Christians should tithe if they are to get prosperity and blessings from God. In fact he threatens that God will send curses upon Christians who do not tithe. He bases his argument on Deut: 28 and Mala.3.The prosperity pastors in Uganda are threatening Christians that unless they bring their tithes to them to consume, they will be cursed by God. One pastor recently said that God can curse an entire church because of failure on part of one church member to tithe. You Liars and extortionists, if tithing is so important as you emphasize, how comes Jesus never tithed? How come the disciples never tithed? You say that the tithe should be given to the pastor to consume, is a pastor a Levite?


Can you give us a verse in the bible that says that the tithe should be given to the pastor to consume. You blame the Sevethday Adventists for emphasizing the Sabbath, how different are you? One of these days , you will tell us to circumcise our bodies. Tithing is nonsensical in this new testament period of grace. WE ARE SUPPOSED TO GIVE AND NOT TO TITHE(Luke 6:38).Tithing is part of the mosaic law , we are no longer governed by the mosaic law and therefore whoever lives under the mosaic law in this new testament of grace is under a curse.


DO NOT BELIEVE THE TITHING LIE: UNDER THE NEW COVENANT CHRISTIANS ARE SUPPOSED TO GIVE AND NOT TITHE. PRECISELY THE TITHING LAW IS OBSOLETE AND DEFUNCT.. AMEN
