Pastor Shola Adeoye, a Nigerian cleric who is the founder of Lighthouse Church, has made a startling claim.

The cleric claimed that some African pastors now engage in homosexuality so that they can become rich.

He said his heart bleeds because "Christianity in Africa is getting dangerous by the day".

He added that "the love of money is making our pastors do all kinds of things."

Speaking of the things African pastors allegedly now do for money, he wrote: "Homosexuality is the doorway to making money now.

 

According to Daily Post, Kumuyi said this while addressing his members at the church’s headquarters in Lagos. He stressed that sinners who have refused to repent but support the church with their money, are wasting their resources.

 

While speaking on the importance of living a holy life, Kumuyi said God does not need a “sinner’s money" stating that it is pointless for a sinner to pay tithes and offerings in church.

 

He was quoted as saying, “If you are a sinner here, God does not need your money. All the money you are giving in this church does not get to God. You are just wasting your money.

 

As a matter of fact if I know the numbers of sinners here and how much they gave as tithes and offering I will remove it and give it back to them. God does not need it and the church does not need it.”
