Here again are your first words.

Lol....ive always told u are not a patient person ...it's like u are always excited to tell people they are wrong and u are right ....


Where in these words above did I say tithing is of Jesus Christ aka the Kingdom of God..?? My comment isn't even about tithe.......it's about blowing trumpet of the good she did which Jesus said we should not behave like the scribes and pharisees who do good to get the praise of men ......

Who forced her before to pay before.
Ignorance is a disease. Tithe is a mystery many dont understand, they just end up running their mouth as if they stop the church would collapse

It's a nice gesture to take care of the weak, widows and other less privileged ones among us. For this I highly commend her selfless act.

But if my debtor uses the money she's owing me to feed the poor, I will get her arrested and charged to court. It doesn't matter how rich I am.

The same thing will probably happen if you refuse to pay your taxes because you are using the money to take care of the poor.

Not everyone must give tithes.
But if you claim to be a Christian the Bible makes it compulsory for you. Whether tithe money is misappropriated by men who claim to be God sent is irrelevant, if you don't trust your pastor then switch your place of worship.
. Tithe is not compulsory

Who talked about Jesus? You said something’s about tithing and I asked you a question for clarification and you’re bringing up Jesus, was Jesus in the Old Testament or is there tithing in the New Testament? Answer my question or let me know if you don’t have an answer

1. I am afraid you are the one who didn't bother to read the story posted in the OP. All the woman did was tell of how she quit paying tithes and built a house for her widowed neighbor instead. The name of Jesus Christ is NOT mentioned anywhere in the OP and rightly so since Jesus Christ has absolutely nothing to do with the activities of your churches and their tithing traditions. undecided

2. You dragged the name of Jesus Christ into this suggesting that her refusal to pay tithes and eventual use of the money to build a home instead had something to do with Jesus Christ and the Kingdom of God, to begin with, which it doesn't at all. . undecided

She did well and the right thing to do!

Most Church do not help the poor, needy, widows etc

Pastor use the money for fine meals and nice lifestyle anyway.

Nigerians should learn from her. I hope you all here learn from her good deed.

Help widows financially instead of calling them witches.
God bless u for this submission. We make up what is called the church. What is the responsibility of the church in the New testament according to the book of ACT 1. promote spiritual growth ~ Act 2:42-47 They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer 2. The care of the poor widows and the needy. At the time, the number of the disciples was greatly increasing. A complaint arose from the Grecian Jews against the Hebrews because the Grecian widows were being neglected in the daily ministry. 2 The twelve summoned the multitude of the disciples and said, 'It's not appropriate for us to forsake the word of God and serve tables. 3 Therefore brethren, select from among you seven men of good reputation, full of the Holy Spirit and of wisdom. 4 Then we can appoint those men over this business, and we apostles will continue to devote ourselves to prayer and to the ministry of the word.' ” (Acts 6:1-4). The church has neglected these duties and the goal now is how to build multi billion dollar auditorium, university etc which poor people can barely afford

You should probably circle back through to read the post you responded to so you can maybe realize why I posted the response that I did. The mention of the word "Christian" in the context suggests a connection to Jesus Christ obviously. undecided

Wrong! That "scriptural" refers to that which is in fact written and can be comprehend as is written in what is scripture. "unscriptural" hence describes that which is not found in any logical context in scripture. undecided

was it not men that wrote?

Dragged the name of Jesus...she's a Christian to begin with from the fact that she uses to pay tithe...so it's not wrong for me to to bring Jesus's saying on giving to attract the praise of men..

1. Jesus Christ said you cannot serve two masters in the Kingdom of God. She already serves under her pastors and mogs there makes her a badge wearer since the lies of your pastors and mogs have nothing to do with Jesus Christ, the truth of God. She didn't even mention that she was born-again, so could just have been one of them seat-warming badge-wearers for all we know. The fact is the name of Jesus Christ was not mentioned in her story by her. undecided

2. No difficulty here since you are instead the one who keeps confusing your churchian ways/rituals as somehow being linked with Jesus Christ when they ain't in any way or form. undecided

The reality is that The designation of the "old Testament " was done by whom

Do you know?


The reality is that Jehovah is Jehovah a Jewish deity and Europeans modified that story to suit THEIR culture and lifestyle of eating porlk and monogamy

The ideas that somehow the deity of the "old Testament" is different from the New testament is brainwashing

Jehovah was a blood thirsty , genocidal Hebrew deity with no agenda for black Africans

There is nothing like NEW TESTAMENT

Ask your self a simple question ##

WHAT DATE WAS the NEW TESTAMENT called "NEW" and by whom?

Has anyone ever told you that Jesus or God labelled those 27 books as New Testament?

Do some research into where that designation came from

No one has seen God.
We are born into different stories and follow them as if we were present when they happened
If you want to enjoy life keep an open mind.
There is a God/god/gods, no doubt.
It's the power controlling the universe.
Science call it energy.
I am a Christian by identification.
I am a spiritualist by existence.
I hope you know the difference?
Dig deep and you'll discover that every God/god/gods is "bloodthirsty".
All religious leaders who are spiritually grounded know this.
That's why they condemn their followers to a life of prayer and fasting while they visit traditional spiritualists for powers through blood sacrifices.
It's just a method of control that's not different from politics.
The only little difference is that while politics weaponises poverty, religion weaponises ignorance.

You lie! undecided

God's faithfulness means He keeps to the terms and conditions of His agreement with men. God's tithing and offering agreement was part of the National Constitution of the State of Israel which God gave only to those descended from Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob - Deuteronomy 30 vs 15 - 20 - the children of Isreal in the Land of Canaan. undecided

So, claiming that when you, a Nigerian living in Nigeria, are blessed by God according to the Constitution that belongs only to the people of Israel when you tithe, you condemn God as an unfaithful God aka a liar. And since we know God does not lie, it hence means you lie! undecided
