The Christian God is like a loan shark, except loan sharks only break your legs and tell you to have their money when they return. This thing called God will burn you FOREVER. For your own money.

Sorry, but that is not the Christian God you are describing.

The Christian God is not after anyone's money. The Christian God will not burn people for ever if they don't tithe their money.

There will be people who will burn for ever, but it will because they rejected the Christian God, not because they didn't tithe.

Acts 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.

Romans 10:9-10 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

Romans 5:8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

John 3:16-17 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

Revelation 21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.

Are the private universities built from the money paid by the average or less previledged people of the church in tithes and offerings cheap enough for them to afford any of their children admitted into the institution?

Benefits from all church members in offerings and tithes yet not all the members are benefiting from what is "owned" by the church. Where does the money from the schools built and private jets came from?

Just saying...think about some of these things and choose wisely what you do with your money all for the love you have for God

Proverbs 22:16 He that oppresseth the poor to increase his riches, and he that giveth to the rich, shall surely come to want.

MarkMiwerds: Which Bible are you reading? Care to share the verse that tells you you are to tithe?

Malachi 3 :8-10

phadat: Malachi 3 :8-10

Pls, wen reading the bible, don't jst pick a verse dat appeals to u, read the whole chapter and understand everyting dat happened there and led to a particular statement being made...."Will a man rob God, ye have robbed me in tithe" if u understand wat led to this statement, den u will knw it has bin misinterpreted & does nt apply to tithes being collected in churches 2day

No one is against giving bt giving on a false believe is nt jst right. U sud give cheerfully at all times & whrevr u are.

So many tins are misinterpreted in d bible and pastors today use dem to preach, it's left to u to seek the truth.

I second that motion.
But again, if god is a charity case who has fallen on hard times and needs to keep up. his mortgage payments on the universe in order to prevent foreclosure, then I am inclined to assist.
Therefore I need to send my funds directly to god, no intermediaries.

Bruhahahahahahahaha

Have you found the god yet?

If You think the Law of tithe is what You must fulfill to make heaven after Christ have paid the price then You really have to appeal the case of the armed robber that was nailed to the cross along side Jesus who made heaven evading the same Law

That iws what this pastors from the new churches make only read one sentence what is for them so that the followers feel that he is preaching the truth
