yahwehpickin:Tithing, (10%) is a requirement under the law that was established in the Old Testament. Under the law tithing is a payment. According to Colossians 2:14, Jesus Christ has wiped out the handwriting of requirements that was against us and nailed it to the cross. Galatians 3:13 says Jesus Christ has redeemed us from the law. If you are paying tithes out of a sense of necessity or obligations you are denying the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Every believer has been purchased by the blood of Jesus Christ and saved by grace, which means we are under the dispensation of grace and not the law. |

yahwehpickin:Hahahaha are you for real? You pay your tithe to God and not the pastor? What a joke. The late TB Joshua was very clear about his position on whether tithes can be given to the needy or must be paid to the church. In his words, tithes must not be paid to the Church, you can use give your tithe to assist anyone in need. As you do this, you are also helping the Church to do it's responsibility. Most pastors would disagree with him on this because of their love for their greed and love for money and material things. My brother you better wise up and stop allowing pastors to deceive you that tithe must be paid to the church. The way all these so called men of God lay emphasis on tithes, if it was the same energy they were using to preach for salvation, many more souls would have been saved. If you like pay tithe to the church always, that does not guarantee you Heaven. I still maintain my position that I would rather give my tithe to the needy than take it the Church. I don wise up. When these con pastors are reading the old testament, they'd tell you this it's old, it's the law of moses and Jesus Christ has abolished it bla bla bla but whenever they want to talk about tithe paying, they'd go back to the same old testament to quote the verse that supports their pathetic love and greed for money. Jesus never talked about paying tithe instead he preached about helping a friend, brother or neighbour in need. Please wise up. These so called men of God are always trying to brainwash their congregation. |

Give you tithe to the needy. If you church needs money, it can raise through donations |

Jesus never ask anyone to pay tithe so whoever is paying it is doing it for showy display and nothing is attached because God doesn't ask Christians to continue with that old system of worship! |

mohims: Don't disobey God because of alleged indiscretion of others. You will deprive yourself of the blessings promised. You are not giving tithe to someone but to God. Anyone misusing the tithe meant for God will account for it before God. Just pay your tithe and let God take over from there. |

Dada4me:Are you indirectly advocating that we should go back to the law of Moses? I will only pay my tithe to the Church when the start supporting old testament laws like an eye for an eye. Because I cannot remember anywhere in the Bible where our Lord Jesus Christ talked about paying tithes to the Church. I cannot be brainwashed by these so called men of God anymore. Until I see a verse where Jesus talked about it in the Bible else I will NEVER make that mistake of paying my tithe to any Church. Whenever someone talks about the an eye for an eye law, these Preacher men will boldly tell you that Jesus Christ came and abolished the laws of Moses. But the one that concerns there pocket was never abolished right? Think Sir, it's very logical to understand who is deceiving who. You don't need rocket science to understand this. 1 Like 1 Share |

kolaish: They should survive on Charity! How do we maintain the building of the church while ignoring the Church itself? If Christians do as Jesus said about the poor n needy around us, the world will be a better place. But if we go by your owm analogy, the world remain same. |

mohims: Jesus did not directly talk about tithe but he told those paying it in Matthew to continue without running from other areas of the Christian life. |

Dada4me:I put it to you that he was not referring to tithe when he said that. If paying tithe to the Church was of great importance, Jesus would have certainly talked about it |
Re: Is It Right Or Wrong To Give A Beggar My Tithes by kolaish(m): 1:22pm On Dec 21, 2021 |
Fran6ik:Give to the needy; Yes. Give to the Church; Yes. Both are good works in the presence of the Lord. Do not neglect one for the other. That has been my stand since. Please forgive me if I am wrong, how much have you given to the charity in the last one year? Get the points straight: In his days, Jesus was constantly in the temple preaching and doing other things. Matthew 21:12-17 - "Jesus entered the Temple and began to drive out all the people buying and selling animals for sacrifice. He knocked over the tables of the money changers and the chairs of those selling doves. He said to them, “The Scriptures declare, ‘My Temple will be called a house of prayer,. Stop discrediting the Church building in the upliftment of the gospel. We need to properly fund the Church building too. Find a good church where the pastor is good and join him in spreading the message of Christ. There are many pastors around that do not take one kobo from church offering, instead they even spend their own personal money to fund the missionaries and help the poor and needy in the church. I can bear witness to it that my church pastor is among one of these pastors. Good day. |

chigoziri2403: Sorry for replying late Jesus came to fulfill the law and not to abolish it. The Jew pay tithe for everything they own. The blood of Jesus is for remission of sins, it has nothing to do with tithing. Tithing has been there before the law, It started with Abraham. There is a reward for giving to the needy and there is a reward for paying your tithe. I understand that there are ministers who have deceiving people. DON'T LET ANOTHER MAN'S WAY MISLED YOU FROM THE RIGHT PATH... |

mohims: Sometimes I wonder if it is the same Holy Spirit that leads us as believers The same bible different interpretation. |
Re: Is It Right Or Wrong To Give A Beggar My Tithes by chigoziri2403(m): 8:52pm On Dec 21, 2021 |
yahwehpickin:What Abraham did wasn't tithing, because it wasn't under compulsion, he gave his heart desire. Tithing is a law , compulsory as an instruction giving to the Israelite. We have the feast of the unleavened bread,Passover ,how many do Christian participate? They only take tithes because it is of financial benefits to some people As Christian we live by the grace of God, if we lived under the law as of the old testament, none of us would be alive |
Re: Is It Right Or Wrong To Give A Beggar My Tithes by chigoziri2403(m): 8:56pm On Dec 21, 2021 |
yahwehpickin:God cannot accept the payment of tithes because of what Jesus has done. But God will accept you GIVING A TITHE. He will not punish you if you do not give a tithe. There is a big difference in paying tithes and giving tithes. God does not was us the pay Him anything because everything has been paid by His Son, Jesus Christ. Since we are now under grace all of our giving is based on 2 Corinthians 9:7, which says every man should give as he is purposed in his heart, not grudgingly or of necessity because God loves a cheerful giver. God does not obligate anyone to PAY him a tithe. |
