Is It Right For Churches To Record Tithes? by Blesyn014(m): 6:23am On Oct 27, 2013 |
Since what you pay as your tithe is your obligation to God, why should it be recorded.? For instance, I attend Assemblies of God church were tithes paying is so taken seriously. Once your name is not on their list as one who pays his/her tithes, I'm afraid you won't be considered to seriously in your time of despair. I have been pondering on this for sometime now still can't find answers to it. So, I want to throw-in the question to the house for a better understanding. |

They do it in my church but I refused to register because I believe it is wrong. Why should they record tithes? Let God judge me if I fail to pay my tithe. I don't buy any excuse they might want to give. |

Charlesamino: Its wrong, its God dt shld reward accordinly nt manMy thoughts too. But if you go to most churches today, it's been taken so seriously up to the extent of having a register for it. Me feel it's really not right because, what ever you are giving to God should be between you and him. Some churches go as far as not recognizing you as it member long as you don't pay your tithes which is bad if you ask me. |

I don't buy any excuse they might want to give.The way it's been put into consideration in my church is the height. Once your name is not there, then be ready to be on your own in times of your need. If the church wanna keep record of anything, it shouldn't be tithes rather, the welfare offerings given for it members upkeep (more understandable). |

Jesus christ never did that, therefore, that act is wrong and sinful. Technically, they re loving those who love them. They have no love for the less privilege... Hence, they re stup1d. |

my dear, all churches record their tithes here in Nigeria. some give u a unique number identification, some would give u a tithe card. whichever way they all register their members tithes and use for important decisions. now the practice didn't start today. remember in the parable of good Samaritan, a priest ignored that dying man cos his name was not in their tithe record books. I don't know if the practice is right, and honestly I don't care to know because I can't convince my church to stop doing it and neither can u. |

keeping records of those that pay tithe is a big shame! These fraudster pastors av turned the house of God into a thrift collecting venture whereby those who pay the FRAUD called tithe are the real born again members, while those who doesnt pay are sinners. GOD IS WATCHING. 1 Like |
