Controversial OAP Freeze is one who never shies away from airing his opinion on anything and everything. Of recent, he has taken a seemingly vast interest in pastors who live big and flaunt material things.

In this new post, he shared the post above of a lady complaining about her church and tithing…Read what he wrote below:

“Tradition, education and Religion are the worlds biggest scams! Tradition is the invisible chain used to bind our physical bodies, education is the perimeter fence that keeps our minds captive, while religion is the pair of handcuffs binding our spirit.

Once a person or organization has control of these, they enslave the captive and his offspring perpetually. Anyone who sees through these scams and wants out of this modern day slavery, is seen as a stupid outcast by fellow ‘mind prisoners’.

Imagine one lady in my office arguing that tithe is an instruction from God, I agree, but God, in the book of Deuteronomy chapter 14 verse 22, says eat your tithe at a chosen place, the person replied me saying “God forbid!”

I showed her the bible, including the part where the instruction from God was for us to purchase the alcohol drink of our choice with our tithe (Deut 14v26) and she said “that can’t be right”……. Of course it can’t be right, your pastor knows more than God now, abi!
Listen, the instruction from God is bring 10% of your crops and the first born male of your animals.

Deut 14 v 23 “Bring this tithe to the designated place of worship—the place the LORD your God chooses for his name to be honored—and eat it there in his presence. This applies to your tithes of grain, new wine, olive oil, and the firstborn males of your flocks and herds. Doing this will teach you always to fear the LORD your God.” __________________

So let’s imagine a cattle rearer has 5 cows, and each gave birth to a female calf. That year he had increase of 5 cows, was he supposed to tithe on them? Of course not! Why? The bible said “first born male” I often wonder where these retires yahoo boys got this 10% across board calculation for tithe, because, for a whole year, the cattle rearer was not obligated to tithe in anyway!

During Jesus time there were people who didn’t plant crops or rear animals, laborers, tailors, carpenters, tax collectors etc.

These people didn’t deal with crops and animals they dealt with money… Hmmmm both Deuteronomy and Malachi talk only about crops and animals not money! Any pastor that force tithe upon you, is a glorified yahoo boy! ~FRZ”

  3. Read what this man posited first before you attack him. In every nonsense there must be a sense! Read post first before advertising your inadquacies to the public! Is there anywhere money was mentioned in the place of tithe during the time of Jesus? Yet there were business men and women…. this is one of the points he raised…

    • There’s sense in your own post. No bodY will force you to pay tithe, but God who called you a robber when YOU fail to pay it (Malachi 3: 6-12). Wait until Jesus and His disciples show you their tithe record or card. It between you and your God, then watch out.

    • Am a tither, am not against tithing but I like it when people raise an argument they back it up with reference! This man in his opinion wasn’t against tithe either, he was trying to make us understand that they way the modern day preachers emphases on tithing especially with money is not how it is written. I think it was ” bring all the food into my storehouse” was it money??? I stand to be corrected! And again can i also pay my tithe to the less privileged??? Am an arguing with you sir but I want you to know that the poster has some elements of truth in his post! Besides, I am an Anglican. Thanks

    • From the look of things,the poster is not born again,he don’t pay his tithe and the fact is he don’t study the word of God. Why then is he warning against tithing? U don’t take advice from a foolish man

    • Stop being judgemental my dear, besides reality can only be justified upclose, you never can tell if he is a born again or not. But from his post he wasn’t against tithe that’s why we have to read things very well, he is trying to let us know that some preachers have strayed from what tithing is all about … ok how many men of God ask tithers to pay it in form of food today?

  4. freeze you are too too big for dis do you want to lost all you have??????? remember you are a public face and know it is the Lord’s doing so encourage to do the right tin at all,an man of GOD that forces you to pay your tithe only all thing to be well with you at all time.

  5. Freeze u r funny…tithing is commanded by God no long stories..its for our own gud…some pastors fake I no drag dat fact wit u…at least pple shud choose a gud church pay their tithes n watch God move in their finances.

  6. This is self explanatory. Word of God in the book of Malachi 3 v 8-11. It says : Will a man rob God? Yet you have robbed me, but you say, in what way have we robbed you? In tithes and offering. (9) You are cursed with a curse, for you have rubbed me, even this whole nation. (10) Bring all the tithes into the store house, that there may be food in my house, and try me now in this, says the Lord of hosts. If I will not open for you the windows of heaven and pour out for such blessings, that there will not be room enough to receive it. (11) And I will rebuke the devourer for thy sake, so that he will not destroy the fruit of your ground. Nor shall the vine fail to bear fruits for you in the field; says the Lord of hosts.
    So I believe that anyone who knows what the word of God said concerning tithes can never be forced by any pastor to pay it, it’s done willingly. But if FORCE is now applied by any pastor then judgment is left for God.

  7. If you like pay your tithe or don’t pay God is still God. Remember the bible says God is not mocked whatsoever a man Soweth that shall he reap. If you want to know about tithing read the book of MALACHI 3:8-12 And those that are supporting him please read MALACHI 3:13-18… Not only tithe but offering too. May God give us revelation knowledge of his word not just church goers that does not know God

  8. So called followers will attempt to insult Freeze. Bible never imposed tithe on everyone and every income. Just a very BIG SCAM! Tithe was only paid to Levites and it’s now a lost tribe. Well am not here to argue. If u hv a problem wt dat, refer o ur bible if u hv 1

  9. Paying tithe is a command to enjoy steady flow of financial outburst……not an opinion…..so a prophet enforces that command……..tithe eaters r robbers of bread in Gods house

  10. He didn’t say u shouldn’t pay ur title…he only said any pastor dat forces u to pay ur title…some will even say if u don’t pay u will go to hell fire..nd besides church isn’t d only place dy pay title…I ave seen a family who donates foodstuffs nd material tinz to d old very month nd dats d way dy pay der own title….Dose title u pay wen someone is in serious Nid of money in such a church no pastor will hlp….nd dat is wat d tittle should rili b 4.

    • Plz stop dis” try God”tin…dia r many unbeilievers u r scaring away from d kingdom of God.stop making God look like a terrorist.tithes are gud u pay dem but plz liv it to God to jugde doze hu dont pay coz u are nt God.tithe paying is watering of ur own ground.d rain pours on d rightoues and d sinner

  11. Lols….ds is like saying a doc.who forces you to tk drugs, is a glorified terrorist. No matter D preaching D pastor cannot go and withdraw D money from ur account. So what’s d force there? U beta Kip silent nd hide ur yellow face if uv got nothing to say.

  12. If pastor forces tithe on you he want you have a generation blessings like Abraham that ur childrens children’s will enjoy so any pastor who forces me to pay my tithe is doing me a good favour.

  13. The secret of the Lord is with those that fear him. If you have the fear of God and you knows the joy that comes after harking to the words of God, you don’t need to be forced, it’s by choice. Choose to be blessed and do the will of God. It’s as simple as ABC.

  14. No body forces you to pay tithe, paying tithe is in conformity with the word of God (Malachi 3:6-12). You don’t attach certain things to God’s word, yahoo or no yahoo. The word of God stands firm. There are blessings that accompany tithing.

  15. i see no reason why some people wants to crucify this guy ooo, the way and manner some emphases on tithes and offerings in the church at times you begging to ask yourself if that’s the reason you’re in church. i advice we do what we know is right and leave the rest for God.

  16. That’s not true. Tithes were ordained by God. Human thinking cannot compare with the Divine Instructions. Tithes should be paid in full to the Pastors/Priests. Only the obedient ones would obey.

  17. Its not by force to pay tithing nd its ur own good to pay I pity any one who is not paying he or her, its what God said nd dat is what I do every sunday nd God is so faith full to I bless is name

  18. Your Hell fire will be a glorified volcanic lava + brime stone with thousands of demons assigned to torment only you, you are a glorified fool@ #freeze, i pay my tithe every end of the month and God has never made me lack or want, the thunder wey go fire you dey warm up, just wait for it

  19. I don’t think u r qualify to say any about the word of God get out!!!! U Antichrist… Any pastor that force u to give ur tithe , is helping u to cast the devil out of ur finances my beloved, just obey as the pastor tells u. Amen!

  20. All of u should go and read Deuteronomy 14: 22-26. There the Bible state how tithe was to be paid in the first century. Matt 23:23 tells Christians the most important thing to be doing instead of tithe. U can’t just pay tithe and ignore Wat d book of Mathew says. Please read ur Bible and comment.

  21. When u ar giving ten percent to God as tithe,u ar still under d laws. Tithe is to be given but ask d holy spirit to direct u where and whom to give ur tithe. Don’t just give as requested by those money monger pastors.

  22. it was in old testament that tithe and offering was necessary..but in new testament there is nothing like tithe and offering.because jesus paid the tithe for us in the cross of carvery..

  23. Pls sir calling pastors that preaches about tithing ‘ glorified yahoo boys ‘ was way out of line,pls let’s mind d way we talk about Men of God,so we don’t incur d wrath of God on ourselves,if u don’t like d way ur pastor preaches,pls quietly leave d church and worship where u feel will be convenient for u. And pls know that tithing is very important,i have not seen a man that is faithful in d payment of his tithe lacks cuz God’s promises is yea and in Him are Amen. He said in His words “prove me with ur tithe and see if I will not open d windows of heaven and pour down my blessings on u and I will say that I am a testimony of God’s faithfulness. Someone said tithing is our way our of financial slavery.

  24. Freez is not someone to learn from as a Christian. I’m sure he can’t even remember the last time he went to church or even study his Bible(that is if he have one).may God give us understanding of his word

    • ROSPERITY GOSPEL:
      TITHING, SOWING OF SEEDS (D)

      (3) HISTORICAL CONTEXT OF TITHE
      MOSES AND HIS TITHING LAW

      Moses through the instruction of God introduce the tithe because of the priesthood and the sacrificial system and Israel being a theocracy. And so it was that after the exodus Moses came to the conclusion that a tithing system was necessary for the nation of Israel. This occurred at the beginning of the second year of the Exodus. He told the Israelites that they should henceforth give a tenth part of their seed crops and fruit trees plus every tenth animal to the treasury in the newly erected Tabernacle (Leviticus 27:30-33). One should notice three points about this initial law that are commonly overlooked by prosperity preachers today.

      MOSES DISCOURAGED USE OF MONEY AS TITHE

      At first, Moses discouraged Israelites from giving tithe in money though he later reluctantly allowed it but attached a very heavy penalty to it. For example, if anyone insisted on retaining any increase of the crops for personal use, Moses demanded an extra fifth part premium (Leviticus 27:31). Moses did not mind them paying in money for crops, but they had to surcharged for the privilege. It is strange, but Pentecostal ministers today would rather have the money than the foodstuffs that Moses ordained. Even when preachers demand the tithe in money, they still do not follow biblical injunction directing that that a one-fifth extra charge should apply for the privilege of paying in money rather than via crops and flocks.

      CROPS IN THE DESERT

      Since the tithe was only required on agricultural crops and herds, little produce would have been given to the treasury while Israel was in the desert of Sinai. Israel had little agricultural crops produced in that desolate wilderness to tithe (Deuteronomy 29:5–6). In addition, Moses did not say in the Book of Leviticus how the tithe was to be spent or to whom it was to be given. He simply said that Israelites were required to pay the tithe. Obviously, the monies were placed in the Tabernacle (the Temple) treasury and this limited amount of produce was placed in storage bins. Let us now examine the tithing system.

      NOT ALL PRODUCTS AND
      SERVICES WERE TITHED?

      Many people have been hasty in assuming that all the income earned by Israelites was subject to the laws of tithing. This was not the case. Any Jewish rabbi can inform a person what items were to be tithed because the Bible makes the matter plain. This point should be noted very carefully. There were only two types of income that were tithable: (1) One was from agricultural production. “All the tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land, or of the fruit of the tree, is the Lord’s” (Leviticus 27:30). This meant that a tenth of all agricultural produce of the land of Israel, whether fruits or vegetables, had to be tithed. (2) The second type of tithable income was the increase of animals. “All the tithe of the herd or flock, whatsoever passeth under the rod, the tenth shall be holy unto the Lord” (verse 32). Only these two specific income producers were subject to the tithe.

      HUGE PENALTY FOR MONETARY PAYMENT

      There is only one exception to the rules above. Leviticus 27:31 reads: “If a man will redeem ought of his tithe, he shall add unto it the fifth part thereof.” In other words, if a man for various reasons did not wish to pay his tithe in kind (and he wished to give money as a substitute), he was penalized a fifth part. Such a law was obviously not intended to encourage payment of the tithe in money. Monetary redemption, on the other hand, was not allowed for the tithe of animals. Moses declared: “It shall not be redeemed” (Leviticus 27:33). This means that the tithing law of the Bible prohibited cattle ranchers from paying money at all. They were required to give the tenth animal no matter if they wanted to keep it for some reason to themselves.

      WHO DID NOT TITHE?

      Since farmers and ranchers were responsible for paying the tithe, we now come to an equally important question: Who was not required to tithe? It is often surprising to people to find that a large segment of people in Israel did not tithe! The owner of a farm had to tithe, but his hired hands were exempt. Was a hired hand required to tithe on his salary? Not at all! There was no law that required a tenth of one’s salary to be tithed (which was earned for services rendered). Only the crops and animals of those who owned them were subject to the tithe. After all, the crops and the animals did not belong to the hired hand and only the increase from one’s land or animals was subject to the tithe.

      FISHERMEN DID NOT TITHE

      And please note this. Fishermen did not tithe, though this industry is mentioned in the law (Leviticus 11:9–12). Likewise, the mining industry is referred to (Deuteronomy 8:9), but the tithe of minerals extracted from the earth was never called for. The lumber business is mentioned (1 Kings 5:7–12) and construction work on buildings (1 Kings 5:13–18) but tithes were not extracted from people who worked in those trades. The same held true for those earning an income from weaving, handicrafts, or from any form of manufacturing or merchandising. They all were immune from tithing including all those in the military and government workers. And though the Levites were commanded to pay a tenth of the tithe they received from the farmers and ranchers to the Priests, those Priests themselves were totally exempt from paying any tithe. To make it plain and simple, only the owners of farms and flocks were required to tithe.

      POOR HERDERS DID NOT TITHE

      Indeed, the Israelite who had fewer than ten cattle did not have to tithe on nine of them because the requirement stated that only the tenth animal that passed under the rod was to be tithed (Leviticus 27:32). Looking at this matter of the tenth animal being tithed from our present monetary point of view, a rancher could have many thousands of dollars invested in nine cattle, but unless he had a tenth he was not required to tithe a penny of his assets. Some Christian ministers commonly teach that the tithe is God’s and that he must get his money first. But the Bible says it is the tenth animal (the last one) that passes under the rod that is God’s, not the first.

      DILEMMA FOR PROSPERITY PREACHERS TODAY

      Does God still require 10% of your money today? Remember tithing was not money, in fact it rarely was. These clear biblical teachings about collecting tithe from agric produce and flocks present some real dilemmas for Christian ministers today who want to use the tithe for church activities and in most cases sustain a lavish lifestyle. If a minister wanted members of his church to abide by the tithing laws, why doesn’t he teach them to perform them the way the Bible instructs? If a church member who lives in a city wanted to tithe according to biblical law, they would be paying a tenth of their garden produce (if they had gardens) or a tenth of their chickens (if they had chickens). There is however hardly a Christian minister, who demands tithing today, who would feel inclined to abide by these laws of the Bible regarding tithing. They want more money than a tenth of what comes from gardens and chicken!
