Pastor David Ibiyeomie, the esteemed founder and senior pastor of Salvation Ministries International, addressed critics in a recent sermon titled "Wisdom For Kingdom Prosperity - Part 2." He recounted a perplexing encounter where someone questioned the rationale behind him paying tithe to his own church, given his ownership. Reacting to this, Pastor Ibiyeomie vehemently dismissed such misconceptions, labeling them as foolish and reflective of mental instability.
He clarified that he doesn't keep any of the church's cheques at home and doesn't sign any alone; they are all handled by professionals under strict oversight. Pastor Ibiyeomie emphasized the rigorous financial protocols and accountability measures in place within the church administration, ensuring that contributions are not under his personal control but subject to thorough scrutiny and approval.
Highlighting the collective stewardship ethos of the church, Pastor Ibiyeomie stressed that its wealth doesn't belong to him personally but is managed for the greater good. He urged congregants to embrace tithing with humility and obedience, cautioning against questioning or resisting this sacred practice.
