Rockefeller believed in tithing.

Just as We have Christians who are broke(which is due to the fact that they do not practice what they claim to believe) so also we have atheists and skeptics who are also broke though they claim to be master economists.


And as regards unbelievers who are rich despite their unbelief I will say, that the law of giving and receiving is a natural law, it is possible for a poor Christian to go to heaven.(Although that's not God's plan for us) Mark Zuckerberg , bill gates, and so many other billionaires give selflessly, even more than some "so called christians" so it is only normal for them to be as wealthy as they are now.


But do not select a handful of rich unbelievers and use them as the yardstick for judging the ratio of rich christians to atheists. we have so many Christians who are wealthy just as much as we have rich unbelievers if not more.

So so.. Back to the pastor's statement. Is it true? ONLY those who pay tithe..

My guy. Charity is different from tithing. And in charity, one can give other things apart from money.

Let us not deviate. Its the pastor's comment we are concerned about here.

Giving is part of many western cultures, with or without religion.

Yes he is right, riches is part of Blessing but not blessing itself.

So if i do not tithe, I'll not receive the blessing..

What are these blessings aside from wealth that people who don't tithe don't have?

The Richest man in modern history John D Rockefeller was a Christian and believed also in tithing.
don't forget that his net worth was thrice bill Gates current net worth.

If you tithe your money, you have wasted it. Better use it to help your fellow human being.

HCpaul:


Many of his likes made their money from natural resources - including Mansa Musa while Bill Gates and modern billionaire's achieved that as a result of creative innovation, invention, and by been a pioneer and a reputable technology artifacts.

If they happens to live in this generation, they wouldn't have been that rich cuz such abound natural resources wouldn't have been flowing in the hand of one man.

Bill Gates and his likes rocks wella because they ain't just rich - they are very innovative.

Bishop David Oyedepo Says Only Those Who Pay Tithes Are Qualified To Receive Blessings

"Everybody believes that God has an open order of blessings for his people. But you see, it takes your tithing to qualify for i.. If you only know the promise and you don't know the conditions, you will die frustrated.

"Christ has redeemed us, from the curse of sin, of poverty, of death. Yes, but what does it take to get there? It takes faith in the demands. People just believe the promise, but you need to believe the demands. It is believing the demands that entitles you to the fulfilment of the promise.

"There is no provision in scriptures without conditions attached. Even salvation, as free as it is, you need to repent before you can be saved. There is nothing provided for without conditions to meet."
