Anakazo22:Stop deceiving others, simply coz u ve been brainwashed and doctrinated. There are many religiouses that do not preach nor pay tithes, still yet, they receive blessing from God. The essence of human being is to worship and glorify God. Tithe is an earthly bribe for the GOs. They invoke fear into you, making u to part with your money. God is the creator of heaven and earth. He dwelleth in heaven, watching over the affair of mankind. Giving generously to others is not a sin. It opens way. Tithe is a compulsion, forceful, burdensome obligation imposed on Christians by gullible men of God, Who uses such money for materials and flamboyant things of life. |

ITbomb: Tithe was the inheritance of the Levites because they were the only tribe of Israel that wasn't given land to farm. They were given mandate to be the priest by God, so 10% of the crops produced on the land of the other 11 tribes are to be brought into the house of God so the Levites (priest) won't cgo hungry. This is the reason for tithe, or did you hear anything about tithe before this occurrence. There are no Levites again, even some Pastors have work they do, so why do they need tithe. Please don't tell me Pastors are the Levites of today, they are quite different. Levite are one of the tribe of Israel not pastor, bishop or any other ordained person. I want you to answer these questions truthfully. Tithe was originally 10% of crops produced annually 1. Who changed it into cash things 2. Who changed it into monthly or salary thing. Note: In Deuteronomy, God said, If his storehouse is too far, he said the crops should be converted into silver (cash) "Use the silver to buy whatever you like: cattle, sheep, wine or other fermented drink, or anything you wish. Then you and your household shall eat there in the presence of the LORD your God and rejoice." |

To me there is a huge difference between GIVING and TITHING. Let's not mix these two words up. GIVING is taking out of that which you have irrespective of how big or small and give to the less privilege while TITHING is giving 10% of the PROFIT you make in your business, gifts given to you and the likes to the house of God [CHURCH] be it a hut or a cathedral. It's a command from God to us all. Whether the pastor in charge of the church you take it to is filthy rich or poor, it's not ours to go against dat command. Ours is to pay the 10% to God's house [Church]. Once we do that, we've done our part, the rest is left to the pastor in charge and God. Ours is to be expecting the blessings attached to being faithful with it. |

this the problem with pple like you...wen ur pastor will be preaching in church u go dey press phone. paying of tithe and giving of offerings is a commandment from God not a law of moses. Jesus never abolished the giving of tithez and offerings..Judas the disciple was a the treasurer..abeg what was he keeping?...how where they getting money?....this is why i get annoyed when people complain abt pastors using private jets....JESUS wasnt poor..he had boats dey wia using for the gospel which wasnt just owned by anybody then...Jesus came and modified some of the commandments he made during the old testament... jpmoriarti: |

Reality3080: Don't send any email again I don't have data to check I don't know when I will have data again I want you to tell me what it will take me to convince you that I need your financial assistance. I use Freebasics when I don't have data in case you're wondering. You know it's not necessary to call someone a beggar if you want to help. It's even worse to call the person other derogatory names in addition. Don't consider what anyone says about me I have been seeking financial assistance and it's not like I'm enjoying it..... some people don't know how devastating it is to find yourself in the situation where you have to seek assistance for yourself let alone you and someone related to you. It will be honorable of you to consider my request for your conditions for help to be possible. I don't know what to say ....... it's not impossible for a person to have problems...but I don't know if you're willing to consider my problems. |

i just read those bible verses u included...Moses made law in tge wilderness due to the lifestyle of the isrealites....God also gave them commandments too....dos verses where talking abt the laws of moses and not the commandments of God....one of the law is "when ur neighbors slaps u, u do d same...etc" den Jesus modified and say u turn the other cheek instead. oga be paying your tithe and dont continue robbing God with flimsy excuses. also help the needy too. study and meditate on the bible well and ask the holyspirit for interpretation. happy sunday jpmoriarti: |

ITbomb:You're right! But tithe is meant for the Levite's, note, only the Levites not the priests.. The levites must have no Job, all their lives are meant for the management and the up keep of the house of GOD.. Be careful, the tithe isn't a Christian thing, if u will trace it, it is the meant for Judaism, one of the Abrahamic religions.. Christ never mentioned paying of tithe, Paul didn't too, Paul only encourage people to bring gifts to the house of GOD like a vow, it isn't obligatory, a vow is something u committed yourself to, no one coerced u through threatens and curses like our pastors do today.. Jesus only asked for those that have one food or the other when he wanted to feed the 5thousand, he didn't place a decree or order on everyone to bring one thing or the other, it was by choice.. Tithe is a Judahist thing and it is meant for the taken care of the Levites. Not a bad thing for Christians to emulate, because drivers, guards,cleaners working for the church etc must be taken care of, but it shouldn't be by force by fire, no law is binding a Christian to the payment of tithes, pastors should stop destabilizing what Christ laid down! Thank u! |

emmyseg:You are not making any sense at all here... Jesus Christ said those who belong to Him are those who obey His teachings and commandments and His commandment stipulates that you not add or change or even remove from His teachings and commandments in any way. So, when you go about pretending you do everything in His Name, you in fact commit sin against God by your actions - Matthew 15 vs 1 - 14 & Mark 7 vs 1 - 23 |
Re: Is It Right Or Wrong To Give A Beggar My Tithes by johnweish014: 2:32pm On Dec 19, 2021 |
Some of those people standing by the road side claiming to be beggers are millionaires. It is only a disobedient Christian that will give a begger his tithes and offering. If you can't obey Scriptures , while go to church and give ur money? Its a total waste of time. [color=#006600][/color] chatinent: |

youngdave78: You pay tithes to God not to a beggar. Paying tithes is a command, alms giving is a choice. |

Oga ! Go to a secret place and ask God to give you revelation about who to pay tithe too, you still lack understanding about the word of God |
Re: Is It Right Or Wrong To Give A Beggar My Tithes by Kobojunkie: 2:37pm On Dec 19, 2021 |
DFERENCE:The reason is simple. God is God of Laws and Jesus Christ is God's New Covenant Law in the Kingdom of God. It is against God's Law to add commands, change or remove commands from His Law, Jesus Christ- Matthew 15 vs 1 - 14 and Mark 7 vs 1 - 13. Jesus Christ never instructed His followers to pay tithes, or give offerings to churches or make vows in your churches in His name. In fact, Jesus Christ never even commanded your church gatherings at all. So those of you who do these things that Jesus Christ never commanded, in His Name, you do so in violation of God's Will and Law, Jesus Christ aka you sin against God. |

Youngzedd:I commend you for your write-up though, but please try and digest Mathew 23: 23: “ “Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You give a tenth of your spices—mint, dill and cumin. But you have neglected the more important matters of the law—justice, mercy and faithfulness. You should have practiced the latter, without neglecting the former. Please note from the above that Jesus never condemned tithing. I rest my case here. 1 Like |

Fran6ik:The lady that honored Jesus with the most expensive oil , I wonder why she didn't sell it and gave it to the poor. Yet people like you and others murmured and said she should have sold it and given it to the poor you are advocating all your tithe for. Honor God with your tithe and offerings and still give to the poor Finish |

Fran6ik:Don't get it mix up. Tithing is different from work of charity. Both are necessary for a good christian. Do you rather prefer to give to the poor and neglect giving to the church? When did giving to the church become antichrist? |
