Are Tithes' Payments pre-requisites to financial breakthrough and success in life?

Big question. I was a third-party to an argument on this topic.

Please note, I don't pay tithes either. I'll rather be benevolent to the needy, as the original use of tithes has been diverted to enrich already RICH theologians. I really find this annoying, hence, the abrupt decision to stop paying tithes. This person said, you can NEVER succeed nor be accountable for your life if you do not pay tithes. I refused to argue with this person as doing that would've added more fury to the fiery furnace, I can be critical like that.

I purposely wanted this in the 'Family's' section as posting it in the 'Religion' section will not gather enough answers as I seek.

Mature answers are highly welcome. smiley

The simple answer is no
If tithe payment was a prerequisite for wealth the churches will be filled with multi millionaires.
Only one person benefits from the tithe money,the. Pastor

Well, I can’t speak for anyone.But as for me, I av never paid thithe since I started my NYSC in 2009 and my income has grown from being a copper in 2009(earning 18k) to being a middle management earning 1.6m per month( not saying this to boast or anything) just thankful for God’s blessing on my life. And I didn’t earn it by work but by His grace. However, I settle my parent and have couple of orphans I give money every month.

My one kobo

NB. I do not condemn the thithers, some claim it works for them, but I av a lot of friends we started together who are committed thither and not halfway of where I am today.(Thanks to God )

well the primary reason for paying tithe is not to gather wealth but to help to assist the ministry to the glory of God and also you would be blessed not just financially but also in other areas of your life.

Why don't you think of tithes as doing good, doing right and doing well by an awesome God who loves you beyond comprehension? In other words you're simply honouring & thanking the One who gave you all you own in the first place.

Forget the argument about financial breakthrough, prosperity and all. God doesn't need our money if we all decided not to pay tithes He will still get His work done on earth one way or the other, with or without us.

I was in a financial bind one time and thought to myself I can't & I won't pay tithes because things were tight. I learnt from my bible that honesty will strengthen my relationship with God.

So I went to God in prayer basically saying for XYZ reasons, I'm afraid I can't pay my tithes this month. In the middle of that conversation I felt His love, warmth and goodness overflow my heart & soul. I stopped and said to myself what are you doing sef? You will pay your tithes and you will do well by this amazingly swaggerlicious and awesome being (God).

I put our conversation on hold, went and got the envelop where my tithes was, returned to our conversation and offered it to God asking him to accept and bless what He had given for the furtherance of his work and good of others on earth. I just felt a desire/need to cherish and respectfully keep my relationship with God.

There are people in hell who are there for robbing God of his tithes (I'm not making this up) I watched a YouTube video on this.

I appeal to every believer in Christ Jesus to watch & listen to these men on Youtube via a google search Mario Martinez & Ron Reagan (on Sid Roth's show) it will save your soul, all of our souls as believers.

If u have any atom of sense u will see the correlation, anyway it tells u that he is the richest and has never paid tithe all his life. So payment of tithe doesn't lead to financial freedom, it's just a believe

Know what works for you and stick with it. If tithe works for you, stick with it, don't run another man's race.

We've heard it times without number that Seun is an atheist, erm Dangote is a Muslim, Bill Gates is this and that.

But those saying such would never tell you that Bill Gates spends even more than 10% on the needy, they won't tell you that Seun's mom is probably a prayer warrior in a church.

Yet, you that don't have a prayerful mother would carry atheism on your head because it "works" for Seun. Do you know what his parents do in the secret?

The bottom line is this: do not compare yourself with anyone. If many of you anti-tithers are as rich as Bill Gates, massive donations would still be a problem.

Some people are blessed today because of the great deeds their great grandparents did. If you don't have that privilege, know what works for you and run your race.

You'll be surprised to know the number of so called new generation pastors that secretively attend MFM for deliverance and prayers after deceiving the gullible ones on Sundays. Even some Nairalanders, after attending powerful vigils on Friday still come online to deceive others and appear as learned non-religious fellows. Do NOT be deceived.

Well, in Orthodox Churches like Catholic, Apostolic, Qua Iboe, etc, the tithes are used for the right purposes because the church is not owned by one individual. Hence, there is a board to manage the finances of the church. The reverse is the case in Pentecostal churches where there is a CEO who oversees his Company (Church)
