Please Let's Identify With Our Churches In Regards Tithing by Gombs(m): 1:20pm On Oct 10, 2013
It is not false that you are a product of Words you give attention to. In other words your character and how you tend to act is directly proportional to Words you give attention to and the thoughts they stir in your heart.

Now, I'm sure we all love our Churches and their doctrines and how they go about stuffs. I'm linking this poll to tithing. It will help us know which Churches tithe and which doesn't, know the Head Pastor/Bishop/Prophet, etc, of these tithing Churches and Churches that Preach against tithing. The few options as of now are;

1. If you know your church preach AGAINST tithing (they call it fraud by other Pators), pls identify your church

2. If you know your church DOES NOT preach AGAINST tithing, but all the same they encourage tithing and receive tithes, pls identify your church

3. If you know your Church talks about it, and you just hate the idea but still grudgingly obey, pls identify your church

4. If you know your church teach tithing principles and does not condemn it and you love tithing, pls identify your church

5. If you are in a tithing Church and you won't tithe because you think it is scamming, pls identify your Church

In that vein, let's be civilized (avoid insults and derailing) and pls give short and precise answers like my format below..and plz choose from the options given above plz.

"I am Gombs, option 4, My church CHRIST EMBASSY teaches tithing and does not condemn it and I love tithing. Pastor Chris Oyakhilome is the Head Pastor
"

God bless you ALL.

Warm regards
Gombs

I want to understand something…are Christians meant to identify with their churches or with Christ?

If my church doesn’t follow the principles of the bible, according to this your topic I’m supposed to identify with them regardless of my knowledge of the truth…right?

Gombs: What do you understand by

"Christ is the Head of the Church?"

Pls name your church if you can't, plz don't derail the thread.

BTW tnx for stopping by
If Christ is the head of the church, and we are all on body in Christ, why then are Christians so divided?

There’s no unity amongst Christians…just confusion everywhere.

Different churches with different doctrines and believe…when I was in the university, my school had over 30 different campus fellowships, the worst is that some of these fellowships would have less than 10 members and they would operate till the end of the semester…isn’t that madness? What stops them from identifying with much bigger fellowships if they all believe that Christ is their head?

Why do Christians always have this “my church is better than yours” believe if truly they are all one body in Christ?

Thanks.

I attend a church that preaches tithe and warn all hell will break loose if you don't. In fact, I was never a member of a church that doesn't.
I was a preacher in a church and preached tithe with "vehemence" until I did a personal study while still a member and church leader in the church.

The question is not IF YOUR CHURCH PREACH TITHING. The question is HAVE YOU STUDIED IT YOURSELF?

@OP, your pastor actually did not always believe in tithe in his early days in ministry. He actually preached against tithing.
If you joined Christ Embassy within the last 8 years you may not have heard about it from him.

According to him, he only believed in tithe after he tried to look for scriptures "against" tithing and "found none".

How can I choose an option if I don't know which of the biblical tithes you are talking about. Or could it be the false man made version that is currently ravaging our churches? Let me know so I can choose one of your options. wink
