The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Enoch Adejare Adeboye, has apologised for claiming that Christians who do not pay tithe will not make it to heaven.
He had earlier argued that paying tithe was a requirement for entry into heaven, a comment that sparked widespread criticism on social media.
While addressing his congregation on Thursday, October 3, Pastor Adeboye expressed regret for his remarks.
Pastor Adeboye explained that his earlier claim was a mistake while addressing a youth congregation at the ongoing Youth Convention of the RCCG at the Redemption camp.
He highlighted that, according to the Bible, peaceful and holy living are the true prerequisites for reaching heaven.
“I apologise for saying ‘If you don’t pay tithe, you might not make it to heaven.’ I’m sorry, that’s wrong, and it’s not in the Bible. What the Bible says is ‘Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see God. It is possible to be right and wrong at the same time”, he stated.
