During a sermon, well-known Ghanaian preacher Rev. Dr. Bempah cautioned Christians against giving God’s money to the needy.
The Senior Pastor of Holy Hill Chapel Assemblies of God Church emphasized to his congregation that it is not appropriate to give the poor money from God simply because they appear to be in need.
He clarified that some poor people are merely experiencing the results of terrible choices they previously made.
But different responses from social media users have been prompted by his teaching. Some people agreed with him, while others held opposing views. View a few comments below.
An Instagram user @stanbnx wrote, “Christianity can be confus! ng sometimes, one priest will tell you to pay tithe while another priest will tell you it’s not necessary, Only God knows the right thing, Bible is the best direction.”
Another Instagram user wrote, “Pastor you be scam. I’d rather give to the poor than give to the church.”
@debbylicious, “But truly giving to the poor u need discernment…..Some of then disguise to be poor and use your money for rituals….. Exactly why u give money to your uncles and they use it against you”.
