Pastor Enoch Adeboye, the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), has apologized for previously stating that Christians who do not pay tithes may not make it to heaven.
In a video circulating online, Adeboye retracted the comment during a Thursday night address at the ongoing RCCG Youth Convention at the Redemption Camp.
He clarified that his earlier statement was a “mistake” and emphasized that the Bible teaches that peaceful and holy living, not the payment of tithes, are the true prerequisites for entering 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’,” he said.
Adeboye explained “It is possible to be right and wrong at the same time. I will proof it to you. I’m a scientist so I know that for years we thought that light travels straight….
“Later on we discovered light travels in waves. It is wrong to limit you to 10 per cent when someone is talking of 20, 30, 40 per cent. 10 per cent should be for beginners I believe God will give me an opportunity very soon to give you the details”
