“And today I stand in humility to correct somethings that I’ve taught for years and believed for years, but could never understand it clearly because I’d not yet being confronted with the gospel of grace, which has made the difference.

“I want to apologize because if it wasn’t for me going down that route, I wouldn’t have ended up where I am right now.

“But I will say that I have no shame at all by saying to you to throw away every book, every tape and every video I’ve made on the subject of tithing.”

On why his move was important, Creflo noted that religion is sustained by two cardinal principles, guilt and fear.

“Why is this important, because religion is sustained by two factors; fear and guilt. And if there’s one subject that the church has used for a very long time to kee people in fear and guilt, it’s in that subject of tithing.

“And it has to corrected now. I may lose some friends, preachers may not invite me no more but I think I already been through that so it doesn’t matter.”
