I beg, let people do whatever they like with their money, after all, is it your money?

Let God Judge. Condemn not,.and you will not be condemned.

FatherLord:
Yes .

Have you noticed that the lives of those who don’t give their tithes, offerings and first fruits is not better than yours even after keeping their money to themselves?

Have you noticed that the pastors keep getting richer by the day, while the sheepies keep struggling and praying for prosperity, pastors are getting rich off your tithes.

cocolacec:
First fruit should be given to your Father or Mother.

This is better than giving to a pastopreneur.

Lolzzzzz 🤣

According to the Christ- “He that is faithful in little , will be faithful in much” . It is in this economy we will know who are the sincerely cheerful givers.

The ones who understands that whatever they have is not their own for they are owned by God Who is sufficient and able to meet all there needs according to his riches in glory.

sgtponzihater1:

Christians are free to feast and free to fast, free to tithe and free not to, free to give first fruits and free not to. Never again should disciples of Christ bind themselves by any custom.

What Christians are However instructed to do is love their neighbour as themselves, flee sexual immorality, have respect for everyone, submit to authority, avoid pride, lies and boastfullness, lead a modest life and avoid food sacrificed to idols.

Christianity is ethical and not ritual based. You are no good giving all your money to God or to the poor, but being disrespectful or spiteful to your neighbour or disloyal to your spouse or a thorne in the flesh of your boss at work. True Christianity leads to a change of heart, and the way we live.

Lol. Christianity is ethical? You must be joking.

Ananias and Sapphira

5 Now a man named Ananias, together with his wife Sapphira, also sold a piece of property. 2 With his wife’s full knowledge he kept back part of the money for himself, but brought the rest and put it at the apostles’ feet.

3 Then Peter said, “Ananias, how is it that Satan has so filled your heart that you have lied to the Holy Spirit and have kept for yourself some of the money you received for the land? 4 Didn’t it belong to you before it was sold? And after it was sold, wasn’t the money at your disposal? What made you think of doing such a thing? You have not lied just to human beings but to God.”

5 When Ananias heard this, he fell down and died. And great fear seized all who heard what had happened. 6 Then some young men came forward, wrapped up his body, and carried him out and buried him.

7 About three hours later his wife came in, not knowing what had happened. 8 Peter asked her, “Tell me, is this the price you and Ananias got for the land?”

“Yes,” she said, “that is the price.”

9 Peter said to her, “How could you conspire to test the Spirit of the Lord? Listen! The feet of the men who buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out also.”

10 At that moment she fell down at his feet and died. Then the young men came in and, finding her dead, carried her out and buried her beside her husband. 11 Great fear seized the whole church and all who heard about these events.

Yes. Your pastor needs that your first salary to settle a lot of things like house rent, children's school fees, buy new car for wife and children, side chick upkeep money, expensive perfumes, private jet maintenance, etc.

My friend Carry your pastor money go give am. That's the price you're paying for being ignorant and foolish. I know what you're thinking right now, "I am not foolish". You're foolish for believing a being that is capable of creating the universe will ever need your money for anything.


Guys stop giving these pulpit bandits your hard earned money. Whoever or whatever made the universe will NEVER EVER EVER NEVER need your money for A N Y T H I N G whatsoever.[/b

We christians are giver! Anything in the bible is correct to us christian.nothing is wrong in the Bible!xo if the bible says give your first fruit...that's what we will "foolishly do(according to some people, because it's our way! Christianity is a way of life!if we give people e don't know why can't we give to the church!even if it's for the pastor to eat xo what?it is an instruction from the bible.And you think all the billions of christians that do this practice are fools?

Even the babalawo that have a different god give kola and red oil and chicken and tortoise to thier god!is it not ants the eat it later? Be joking..if you like don't find something and hold this year...i

myspace:
You need to understand that Pastors who request January Salary from Church members are like high maintenance girlfriends that don't know how to manage resources. They get away with such brazen exploitation because they never give account of how church funds are managed to the congregation.

Telling people to donate their January salary to a church that would not come to their aid if the enter into financial problems is wicked and evil. I know someone that emptied his bank account to 'provoke angelic intervention '. When sapa took over his life, the pastor blamed him for not having enough faith instead of simply returning his money. Pastors that ask for January Salary are evil and should be avoided.

A føol and his money is soon parted

Hmmn, religion and faith are complex and personal subjects, so if one believes that the First Fruit practice is the way to go, as long as you are doing no one any harm, do go ahead.

However, I have a big issue with colleagues who do give their whole January salary to their churches/pastors only to start disturbing the rest of us 'lesser Christians' who do not practice this, for raises and loans; sometimes these First fruiters even fight us for being stingy and insensitive, really?? Please if you know you are going to engage in this, please have some fund set aside to practice this otherwise tell yourself, you cannot afford it, full stop!

Christianity as a religion, it's holidays and rituals today were created by Romans, those who sanctioned killing of Jesus (according to the Bible)

You are just throwing away your money.

"Of you first fruits", Not all your fruits.

As a business man, your first fruit is the first sales you make in the new year. As a worker, your salary is calculated based on a daily amount that is paid once at the end of the month. That means your increase is daily for each working day. that daily amount is your first fruit.

Cane and Abel were the first people to give God "of their first fruits". It wasn't all the harvest, but a portion of it. God accepted one and rejected the other.

Do what suits you. Nobody dey force you to do anything

Our Lord Jesus christ didn't direct us as true Christians to be doing it. The New Testament contains the new rules for the new kingdom of God which is about to come.
We should stop serving God by season or callinder. You fast for 21 days, etc every year and you are a man of God, did you hear from God?
Let's stop misleading children of God so that His wrath will not destroy us.

Why are you wasting your time trying to save those who don't want to be saved. Let him give all his fruits (not only first fruit) to the pastor. The best you can do is pray for his children for being burdened with such a low hanging fruit father.

First fruit is not biblical but a personal decision bourne mainly out of ignorance by those you practice it.

Your first fruit offering doesn't have to be all. You give your best out of the first. This is the principle even under the law of Moses.

I don't give shishi to pulpit bandits.......

guobe:



It is expensive maintaining the church not beneficiaries necessarily cashing out.

Expensive maintaining the church?.... or the pastor and his accomplices? Isn't the tithes and offerings and monies from the side businesses like anointing oil and holy water ... fees from weddings and funerals etc not enough to maintain the church? If not the building needs to be shut down and sold .... and pop up church be the replacement.

Nteogwuija:


So God came up with a formula to share ur money with u? Nice.

May devil always share everything you have for you clearly knew that this is not true but you had to come and speak evilly. So devil.bless you with abundant evil.

Please is first fruit done with only money?

This one is gone...

The Bible said; Love God with all your heart and your neighbors as yourself. THATS THE GREATEST COMMANDMENTS.

No gree for anybody.[/quote]

Well..!! That's what dey said.

If una still dey pay tithe for 2024, then yall are dense.

chiedu7:


The bible never said that righteousness died, it said the law of righteousness died..

Rom 10:4 KJV For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.

Learn to grasp what God is saying

If The righteousness of Law is dead it therefore means that unrighteosness of The Law Lives and rules. Which means you can do all your unrighteosness because when Christ died, He took away the righteousness of The Law according to you. So you should not bother about living right. Live unrighteosly then like bandits, kidnappers and mannappers and murderers and whorestitutes.

If you still dey talk about tithe wey no concern you, for2024, you lack common sense

If God doesn't consider whether to bless you (in this harsh economy), why should you consider to bless God?

Truth be told, those that give their first fruits never lack good things throughout that year

First fruit abi last fruit is a personal decision. It should never be taken as a doctrine in church.

Christianity is not criminality, and Jesus Christ would never do such. Before you do whatever your daddy GO tells you, always ask yourself, would Jesus do this? Would Jesus call for my seed, first fruit, bla bla bla?

I gave mine already...$50 my bestie $100 ...thank u Jesus!
