Religion has blinded Nigerians – VeryDarkMan reacts to Pastor Adeboye’s apology

Social media activist, Martins Ortse, also known as VeryDarkMan on Friday said religion has “blinded and finished” Nigerians and Africans.

VeryDarkMan was reacting to the apology by Pastor Enoch Adeboye of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, RCCG.

The cleric apologized for his earlier claim that Christians that are not paying tithe won’t make heaven.

Pastor Adeboye had previously claimed that paying tithe was one of the prerequisites for going to heaven.

But addressing his members, the clergyman apologized for the comment which he described as a “mistake”, stressing that the Holy Bible never said such.

He emphasised that the Bible says peaceful and holy living are the prerequisites for making heaven.

Reacting via his Instagram post, VeryDarkMan said: “I’m happy about what Papa Adeboye revealed so I’m waiting for all those pastors like David Ibieyomie that preach about giving tithe.

“The number one man of all the religious people in Nigeria has come out to apologize that he’s sorry for saying if you don’t pay tithe you won’t make heaven; that it’s not in the Bible.

“Which other things have they told us is not in the Bible? That’s what I’m concerned about; how many things have they manipulated that is not in the Bible? I’m glad that Papa Adeboye came out to say these things, so imagine the ones that would come out to apologise and have manipulated the people, they have twisted the right words of the Bible to suit their own narratives.
