Popular preacher, Pastor David Ibiyeomie opines that Jesus never liked poor people.

He made this known during a recent worship session with the members of his church.

The clergyman drew biblical reference to further his point on this, as he gave instances where Jesus only visited the rich.

Pastor David Ibiyeomie maintained that a Christian ought not to have a poor mentality, as Christ already died to ensure they are not poor.

He said in part …

“Jesus never visited any poor person in the house, read your bible. That means he hates poverty. Check, he visited Lazarus, they were not poor, they were giving him food. He visited a sinner called Zacchaeus who was rich; Tell me the one poor man Jesus entered his house; he hates poverty that what it means, he hates people who are poor. He died for you not to be poor, so how can you now coming to church have that kind of mentality. You can come poor, but you are not permitted to remain poor….”
