Why does the all-knowing, all-seeing maker of heaven and earth. The one who predestined everything - including my refusal to bow to xtian or islamic doctrine (as well as every atrocity ever committed) - need my 500 naira?

What if I need to recharge my phone? Does the one with everything take what little I have and leave me with nothing?

have you asked your garden why you need to sow seeds before it can grow plants?

Alfa Seltzer: have you asked your garden why you need to sow seeds before it can grow plants?

What you have suggested is like asking a baby to feed its mother.

Surely if god loves me and has all then he should give?

if you don't sow seads, plants wont grow.
if you don't buy lottery ticket, you won't win.
if you don't deposit capital, you won't get interests.
if you don't pay god, you won't get rewards.

to those who have, more will be given - (that's god)
to those who do not have, even the little they have shall be taken away from them. (that's you)

Please be precise about these 'rewards' that you speak of.

I can't. doG chooses which rewards it wishes to give. Who are we to question it?

God does not withhold anything from us. He even gave his only begotten son
and concerning babies feeding mothers, we both know babies wud give the world to their mums if they cud. u wont argue that sir

very tru

OP here is the thing, the "500" u give in form of offering is not actually giving to God. The thing is that many doctrines are out there that preach the wrong things. There are also churches that are not true (remember for every fake there must have been an original) so there are are "fake" churches and there are true churches.
In a true church of God, your offering serves so many purpose. That 500 u gave plus that other's will be channelled to the propagation the gospel and reaching out to less privelegded among and around you. To propagate the gospel, the offering can be putted together to make tracts, books e.t.c sometimes to pay for airing on t.v via satelite, thus taking the gospel to place your feet might not take u.
Now u see the "500" will do this and so much more.
Though some "pastors" have turned it around and turn this offering to their own earnings, which is wrong, so when u see such happening in some churches it does not mean that is the way it ought to be.
I hope I have been able to answer ur question and sorry for the long epistle have put down.

Exactly, @ op God would first consider ur person before considering whatever it is u are bringing. Look at the case of Cain n Abel, the bible says God had respect to Abel n his offering bt to Cain God had not respect to him nor his offering Genesis 4.
