The General Overseer of Omega Fire Worldwide has called out Daddy Freeze for daring to insult Pastor Adeboye.
Apostle Johnson Suleman, the General Overseer and President of the Omega Fire Ministries Worldwide [OFM], has added his voice to the tithing controversy that has been raging since On-Air Personality, Daddy Freeze, took it upon himself to battle men of God on the issue.
During a sermon on Sunday, November 12, 2017, Apostle Suleman spoke extensively on the issue, backing Pastor Enoch Adeboye, the GO of the Redeemed Christian Church of God [RCCG], who had come under fire from Daddy Freeze.

During the sermon, the OFM founder said:
“Let it be clear that if anyone is not a pastor, he has no right to attack a pastor on church issues. He should leave everything to God. I only laugh. Somebody who is not a doctor cannot teach a certified doctor how to go about doing his job; he will just be laughed at.
Someone who is not a journalist can’t teach a true journalist how he should do his work; they will just be laughing at him.
I wouldn’t have spoken on the issue but you don’t argue with a man whose mind is already made up on any issue. It is futile. And I’m not going to confuse anybody to pay tithe, no. If you attend my church and you decide not to pay tithe, it’s left to you.
In my church, they don’t pay me an allowance. I live on my personal businesses and I write books. So far, I have written 52 books that are inspirational and I’m still writing. If you write books that are inspirational, believers and non-believers will buy.
It is not as if it is only church members that buy pastors’ books. That alone is enough to sustain any pastor. So, you don’t just jump to criticize any pastor for buying private jets or expensive cars because you think it is tithe that they use to buy them.
If you asked me, there is nothing wrong with tithing. But tithes should be used by pastors to maintain Christianity, assist the poor in the church, the vulnerable and the stranded.
Not that everything should go into the pastor’s pocket, that’s wrong. Every pastor should be on an allowance.
That young man [Daddy Freeze] does not deserve a response; in fact, I’m not talking because of him but because my Papa, Pastor Adeboye, had spoken. I’m speaking on the issue.
Now, if it requires that we go into a debate, let’s have it. Yes, your tithe is not a license to make heaven but it is an acknowledgment of God’s mercy in your life. But because Papa Adeboye corrected the wrong notion and the young man dared to respond to him, I felt it was insulting.
This is not about sentiment or emotion, it is about common sense. You don’t respond to an elder in a certain manner, especially a man of Pastor Adeboye’s standing.
There are things people shouldn’t just dabble into especially when it is not their field. Even if you mobilize the whole world against tithing, you will only end up being counter-productive because this is not your field.

Men of God do not need to react to such issues because like I said earlier; once somebody has made up his mind on a position, nobody should argue with such a man.
My reaction to such a man is, if that is your position, keep it, continue with what you believe but don’t confuse people to believe what you believe.”
