  • It’s no secret that churches in Samoa hold a lot of influence over the people and that is expected with a nation claiming to be founded on God.

    Good point brother good point..church is like business in most places, because people respect the church and honor God....only those running the church is at fault..preaching the gospel is free no money should be payed to those involved.....serving God is voluntary your FAITH..BELIEF..COMMITMENT TO GOD that counts..

    i am a Catholic and i support this guy, the cause of poverty nowadays comes from everywhere including Church commitments. the real problem is not the Church itself rather it comes from the people who run the Church. Jesus Never asks for any money or any huge buildings for himself. But in our world today huge buildings seems very important to church leaders and that is why we suffer. why build huge buildings for worship and no people come for church? perhaps Church leaders and those who abuse power must really look at the people and how they suffer. Another cause of poverty in Samoa is that the cost of living is rising but the wages or payments for the employee still stay the same. i think we as a nation really need to address this issue.

    Number one is your familia means your children, e le'i faimai lava Iesu e fai gi saoga tupe, two things you have to do in the church just your tithe and offering, and have a peaceful relationship with God, I love helping people in needs like solo parents and poor people, God blessed me for doing good, Ia fa'amanuia lea Atua ia te oe uso and your family, you put your family first God will bless you for doing that, not the church.

Haven't been to Church for 20 years yet I pray n read the good book daily. I find it more PEACEFULL and Self Happiness this way. I dont care about what people say and judge me on. Im living life freely and indeed happy 😀☝🖒👊

      all religions are lies. the bible is filled with lies. Believe me I have researched. The bible was written by the Pope Constatine in the 5th Century to help the Romans put fear into the people so they are easier to manage......but it went viral now stupid people follow it to their own demise. shame. NOW they got you wearing masks and lock you up in your own homes......its evil.

    I have to agree with him. Unfortunately, the Church has put expectations on the people to meet their demands. They play on the poverty of the people by making them feel obliged to give time, assets and money to the Church. And make them feel ashamed if they can't meet those needs. And at times turn it into a competition of which family is giving more or less and making them feel guilty for it. Although this is happening in Samoa, it happens in other Churches in NZ and the USA which may be culturally different but the same principle is there where it demands the help, and resources of the people to thrive more as a business. And using shame and culture to propagate that business process.

    The day everyone realizes you do not need a church to praise and worship God and Jesus is the day eyes will be open. Churches do not have to pay taxes but scrape up every bit of change from the people. Jesus spent his days out doors he despised temples who taxed their people. The church is not God's house his kingdom is beyond this world.

    If it feels wrong, most probably is wrong. The only reason why tithing was implemented as mentioned in the Old Testament was to help with the levites who served in the temple and their religious activities as well as help assist the poor of the day. Jesus sacrificial death erased, or abolished, the Mosaic Law, including the “commandment to collect tithes.”Hebrews 7:5, 18; Ephesians 2:13-15; Colossians 2:13, 14.

    This is the reason why many parents and their children suffered because of man's idea. God doesn't want us to suffer for wrong reasons but to serve him gladly. But now the families are forced to give even when they can't afford. Methodist in Samoa is one of the worse church I have ever seen iny whole entire life. They demanded too much money from the poor families. What happened, families will give all the money for whatever the church tells them, and after that, they cry because no money to feed their children,pay for their electric and water bills. What about the school children? But the funny thing is, the family work hard and give all their money to the church, but when someone gets sick or are really needed help, they won't be able to lift up their fingers to help them, and this is a very sad part.
    This is what happen when they are not preaching the true message of Jesus in the Bible.

    This guy is right. He thinks outside the box and does not uncritically accept the power and doings of the church. In my deeply devout catholic country, many people live in the streets but churches are everywhere and they are grand mansions. Why do people keep donating to the church when it is one of the richest institutions in the world? When my friend saw how wealthy the Vatican was and saw the misery of millions of Catholics around the world, he lost faith and stopped believing in the church. Their wealth runs into the hundreds of billions, yet many catholic countries are dirt poor. Religions are the biggest rip off for mankind. We do not need religion. We should focus on strengthening and empowering communities to improve people's lives.

Okay, fa'amagalo mai...But this is something I've seen in my own family and they often travel back home for fonos. Money raised by churches in the US is NOTHING compared to the money raised by the churches in Samoa. My question is ...po'o fea le mea lea alu uma atu ai nei tupe ua pologa atu ai tagata uma? With all the money being raised, all the children in Samoa should have access to free education, water, and electricity already. Talofae ia Samoa. Lea ua uma na fa'apologa e palagi ae lea ua latu le Saiga se'i fai fo'i saga ia EXPLOIT. The best things in life are FREE! Amu'ia Samoa, growing your own food, at least you have that power!

    Many of these churches were created by the 13 Bloodline also known as DESCENDANTS OF DEMONS per Kenese 6:2-4; Numera 13:33; Revelation 2:9-24; 3:9; lea ua tele a tagata ua fa'aali mai ai e le Tama Ile Lagi le malamalama i mea lea ua o'o ai nei le totou lalolagi.

    This isn't the right thing to do in God's eyes. The pastors should never be paid for their work for the Lord. The Lord will pay them, but here, when a pastor takes his congregation's donations for himself and his family, they're paying themselves and that stays here on earth, and when they die, they won't have any other reward in heaven. This isn't the will of God. God's will for pastors is to bring His people to Him, not chase them away by making money from their congregations.

    Regardless of which churcb you go to, TITHING is important because that belongs to God and biblically that is the Key to opening(I WANT TO EMPHASISE ON OPENING) the door to your blessings. Giving your offerings is what pushes those blessings to you. So to insinuate that church commitments brings about poverty is extremely appauling. Seems to me the reason for your predicament maybe that you rob God of your Tithe.

      Did you forget about Church building schools and educating the kids that the Government has NEGLECTED?
      Churches have MORE High Schools (Colleges) in Samoa than the Government does.
      ALSO, the National University of Samoa started out as a University ESTABLISHED by the Congregational Christian Church of Samoa (CCCS/EFKS).
      Tofilau Eti Alesana the Prime Minister of Samoa at the time and who was a member of the Congregational Christian Church Requested the ELDERS of the Church to Let the Government take Over the University For the BENEFIT of ALL Samoa.
      Thus was founded the National University of Samoa.
      You can talk all you want but Churches in Samoa have done A LOT of GOOD with the money that people DONATE of their Own FREE WILL and FAITH.
      CHURCH/RELIGION DOES NOT SIN. PEOPLE SIN.

    The problem with congregations these days is that,they don't have the truth,the bible says in the book of John And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
    John:8:32 if they did people wouldn't be suffering,Jesus already took that suffering on the cross,and the other problem is that people that are leading these congregations are not fill with the holy spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongues according to the bible in the book of Mark And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God. And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.
    Mark:16:17-20 Acts on the day of pentecost when the deciples and others were cathering on the upper room and they were all fill with the holy spirit and they were all speaking in tongues the wonderful works of God,and also Jesus said know them by their fruits if they say they are fill with the holy spirit but not walking according to the bible well that's there fruits simple is that,alot of people says that it doesn't matter what church you go to,well let me tell you it does matter not all congregations practice or believe the same principles in the bible there is only one Jesus and one body the body of christ but all these congregations practices different and it's nothing to do with the word of God is all man made religions to suit them and that's not the body of christ because the body of christ is one is not devided I have alot to say and share about what the Lord has in my life and my family but i hope everyone understands what I'm saying I do feel compassion towards those people because I want them to have the truth and the truth will make you FREE indeed praise the Lord

    Samoan Churches are not following biblical teaching on money. .. .u only supposed to pay your tithe which is 10% of your income n after that is your offering whatever your heart desire.. tithe is not only money but 10% of your time that u pray for other ppl or invovle in God's work..etc. ...read the bible yourself n if u don't understand the Holy Spirit will teach you.....u can listen to those who claimed to be faifeau preach the bible but it's your duty as individual to study the bible to know they're preaching the truth of God's Word...
