Recently, a video of a pastor demanding offering from his church members has gone viral. While it is common to see videos like this, what is interesting about it is the manner and way through which the pastor asked for the offering. As seen in the video, the man asked his members to come out to the front of the altar, empty their pockets entirely, and then, touch his sweat. He assured them that, by doing this, they are bound to get rich. The pastor told them that their act of benevolence towards him was not so he could be enriched, but so he could bless them. For him, he could only use the money they placed before him to buy recharge cards.
Regardless of what he said, some celebrities who saw the video were not buying it. They took to expressing their discontent of his approach at collecting money from his members. Comedian Ali Baba could not but hide his disapproval of what took place in the church. He blatantly called the pastor a thief. Then, he went ahead to debunk the claim that he had committed an error by calling the man such name. “This pastor is just a thief. Period. P.S.. My attention has been drawn to the bible reference that says “touch not my anointed and do my prophets no harm.” Did I touch him?”
Daddy Freeze also weighed in on the issue. As expected, he was quite vehement about his stance that what the pastor did was wrong. See his post below: “Come and touch his sweat o. All this touch my sweat … Christianity would not follow us into 2019 in Yahushua’s mighty name I pray! He said it’s not about the money then what is it about? The sweat? Touch my sweat touch your head and empty your pocket? No be jazz be that? No be jazzman talk am? Which one is kaboosh again o, church don become shrine o!��”
