I now pay my tithe in trailer loads – Oyedepo

David Oyedepo

General Overseer of Living Faith Church (aka Winners Chapel), David Oyedepo, has said that he now pays his tithe to God in trailer loads.

Payment of tithes has been a contentious issue among Christians. While many say it was never a biblical command, others argue that it was instituted by Abraham who is widely accepted by Christians as the father of faith.

Oyedepo told his congregation at the church’s Canaanland headquarters, Ota, Ogun State that he had not failed to pay his tithe since 1982.

“You don’t have to steal to shine. You don’t have to rob to prosper. If it is pastoring/founding a church that makes people prosper, there are many pastors/church founders who are paupers.

“You can’t go up except by tithing. From 1982 till date, my tithe hasn’t failed once; now I cart it to God in trailer loads,” he said.
