Candour:

Pity yourself friend. You that can't even explain what your god of men preaches to another nairalander is trying to pity somebody. nlmediator dropped some useful advice for you on the purchase thread opened by Joagbaje. Hope you read and internalise it. You only parrot what you hear every fellowship day without understanding and it was very glaring on that thread as it is when you talk about tithes.

Tithing as preached today is a perversion of Mosaic laws and a horrible scam. Even if I'm the only one remaining in the world holding this view, you bet my stand won't change.

Your churches that you're so proud of because of the money, crowd etc you have are mostly business centers trying to compete with dangote, adenuga and co and it shows in the greedy covetous people they churn out.

I was expecting to see your tithing testimony on Joagbaje's testimony thread. Pls go and give it so we can know how much 'tithe principle' works in your life grin abi you don't have testimony ne?

Tithing for Christians is a fraud and no amount of bible twisting can change it.

I will see you one day in Jos and we'll laugh and shake hands over drinks but until then, stop the scam and let people give freely and willingly wink

Because its not a competition and the fraudsters have engulfed the entire landscape. Is that so difficult to understand?

God is bringing his children out of the bondage just as he used one man to deliver the Christian world from the sale of indulgences.

There are churches that do not preach or collect tithes, but more importantly more and more Christians are discovering the truth and learning to think independently of the charlatans in suit and that is very evident on this forum.

Even in America where a lot of the ills that plague some forms of Christianity emanate and are quite prominent, see the surprising result of a survey done only two or so years ago in 2011.

From here http://www.nae.net/resources/news/547-evangelical-leaders-say-tithe-not-required

Short extract

"[size=14pt]Evangelical Leaders Say Tithe Not Required[/size]
Many evangelical churches regularly encourage their members to tithe, or give the church at least 10 percent of their income. Yet, according to the February Evangelical Leaders Survey, most evangelical leaders do not believe the Bible requires Christians to tithe. The survey showed that 58 percent do not believe the Bible requires a tithe, while 42 percent do."

You see how dishonest you and your pastors are?

Later you'll start lying you don't tithe because of Mal 3:8-12. Keep deceiving your selves.

I wonder why your devourer has not being able to devour the 1billion Catholics who no longer operate by tithing.

Chukwudi44 , a well known Catholic on NL has blown your lies out in the open. Catholics are encouraged to give as they desire and are able which is exactly what the apostles encouraged their converts to be doing and which we are advocating today.

Keep contributing to make your god of men have enough resources to keep their hair gelled. You'll be repaid with cartons of sophisticated hair cream I suppose.

Do you have a problem with comprehension?

Catholics no longer practice compulsory tithing but are encouraged to contribute anything from 1-100% means they no longer operate by tithing, you know why? because tithe is strictly 10%. and if you dont operate a strict 10% threshold, then you're no longer operating by tithing or you want to prove Abraham gave more than 10%?

Tithe is 10%....No more, No less

Its that simple.

You lied against the Catholic church and a Catholic called you out. Catholics mooted the idea of Tithes for the church at Tours in 567AD, ratified it at Macon in 585AD and even then, its was strictly Agric produce meaning Christianity survived for 550 years without compulsory tithes .Catholics are obligated to support the church but are not given a percentage to abide by. Ask a Catholic who knows to educate you. Fr Gyang can even help you out wink

As you go learn the following

1. High numbers doesn't translate to correctness, the crowd is not always right

2. The Catholic church doesn't preach tithe so dont use them as leverage in your scams

3. Christians are only to give voluntarily, no stipulated percentages.

4. We didn't hear the truth about tithes from churches but from in-depth personal study of the word of God.

5. There are churches that dont preach tithes and more will come up.

I have been attending Covenant Christian Center for sometime and I noticed they do not stress on tithing like they do in other pentecostal churches. Although, the envelopes are passed around during offering time.

In my Christian walk, I have learnt that the crowd is not necessarily right one of which is most pentecostal teaching that Alcohol is a sin. I know better because I asked the Holy spirit and not a MOG. Same reason I know better about tithing.

GOD is not a Slot machine! When you claim to tithe based on Malachi 3 then how can you claim you give to God because you love him?

What the OP asked for is that which is bolded above. The answers provided to that have already well exceeded 10. smiley

OK the OP mentions "anti-tithe"; BUT we can see clearly what the OP means by that i.e. churches that do not preach tithing. Again, as I said, the answers provided have already exceeded ten.

As another poster suggested, the use of language on the thread suggests that this is the dichotomy:

"Pro-tithe" churches = churches who preach obligatory/mandatory tithing.

"Anti-tithe" = churches that do not preach obligatory/mandatory tithing.

A couple of observations:

The use of "anti-tithe" for individuals is obviously an attempt to paint the challengers of the tithing doctrine negatively, effectively an ad hominem. To some extent, this is understandable in the sense that the tithing opponents can be said to be anti i.e. against tithe (though even that is not quite accurate!).

The use of "anti-tithe" for "churches" is a deliberate or duplicitous chicanery because churches are not the ones as such contending the tithing doctrine. Rather what churches do is adopt a doctrinal stance and preach/practice that stance. What is more, there is no church that says if a giver chooses to give or make an offering of 10% they will not accept it!

See how absurd it can get: Oyedepo does his slapping deliverance, is he pro-slapping? Are churches who don't do slapping "anti-slapping"?

What about "pro anointing oil" versus "anti-anointing oil"? What about "pro-holiness" versus "anti-holiness" (make Deeper they fight Chris Embassy on that one). smiley

The arguments of the tithe-mongers on the biblical teaching are weak as is already well known. Their quest for "anti-tithe" churches is a puerile nonsense that is only worthy of such as tithe-mongers to be honest.

Pro-tithers and Anti-tithers.

Pro-tither- supporting or appproving the doctrine of tithing.

Anti-tither- opposed to or against the docrine of tithing.

Op said churches that do not preach about tithe, you have added another vocabulary, "obligatory" "mandatory".

There is a big difference between Pro and Anti, now, let me ask you, is there any church that has a doctrinal stand against Tithe?

If you ask me, i will say no.

Thank God, i am yet to see any church condemning tithe as you people condemn it on this forum, you criticized, castigate and went ahead to call men of God names like, thieves, fraudulent preachers, and so many absurd names.

If we have churches preaching against tithe this way, there will be no problem, but it is difficult to see a church taking a doctrinal stand and stipulates that Tithe is a fraud. It is very difficult. If there is any, let me know.

You also said those churches are already more than ten. Where are they?

Too bad.
