Mike Bamiloye, who started Mount Zion Faith Ministries, stands by Pastor Enoch Adeboye from the Redeemed Christian Church of God. Pastor Adeboye said sorry for things he said before about paying tithe, which means giving a part of your money to the church.
Pastor Adeboye admitted that what he said before was a mistake. He used to say that if you don’t pay tithe, you can’t go to heaven. But now he knows that’s not what the Bible says. The Bible says if you live a peaceful and good life, you can go to heaven.
Mike Bamiloye spoke about this situation. He said, “Pastor Adeboye made a mistake and God helped him realize it. So, Pastor Adeboye told everyone he was sorry after God spoke to him. This is not easy for someone as important as him.”
Bamiloye explained that saying sorry like this is hard, especially for someone like Pastor Adeboye, who is known all around the world. But Pastor Adeboye did this because he wants to do what is right for heaven, not because he cares about being popular on Earth.
Bamiloye added, “Even if people make fun of him or talk about him for saying sorry, Pastor Adeboye only cares about heaven. He doesn’t worry about what people think because being humble is more important. God loves people who are humble and helps them (James 4:6).”
