mabell: Awesome.
I do 20% of my tithe now
I plan to do more sef

Great. I am aiming 90%, because 10% is too small for the work of Evangelism, church planting, taking care of the workers in the church, paying Electricity bills, and also for other misclleanous expenses in the church.

God bless you.

You work also that your Pastor can have his private jet, that he always hads full pockets with money.

In my country we pay between 1,1 % and 1,5% from our salery what we get and the pastors can live and the workers in the hurch will also get payed and our pastors teach in the schools religion and have no time to drive big cars like in nigeria.

This 90% tithe jargon is a popular lie tithe collectors say to their followers to further deceive them into parting with a larger percentage of their income.

ashieduplus: I have stopped tithing recently. Earlier this year, a thorough study of the bible showed me that many teachings in the Church (especially pentecostal are wrong), tithing included. My suspicions were confirmed when I stumbled upon Olaadegbu's thread on tithing. Other errors include tongie speaking, special anointing, first-fruit offerings, e.t.c. I thank God for people like frosbel, candour, goshen, shemidemi, and enigma. (even ola for starting the thread). The responses of bidam, jo and company where also helpful: their circular arguments and evasiveness pointed me to the truth. As of tis moment I am no longer "pentecostal", though i occasionally attend rccg.

Olaadegbu you see you are doing more damage to the tithe doctrine with your ill constructed lies and fabrications to support the tithe lie. You may not know it but God is actually using you to release brethen from this false man made doctrine. smiley

Tithe has been in existence before Pastor kun was born, i do not understand why he is hell bent on destroying church doctrine.

@Pastor kun, give us names of churches that have stopped tithing.

Up till now, the following churches still copmly with the tithe doctrine: MFM FOUNDED1989, CAC FOUNDED 1930, REDEEMED 1952, WINNERS 1981, DEEPER LIFE 1973 and more churches.

So, who is Pastor Kun to come to this forum fighting like a wounded lion that TITHE has been abolished from the same Bible that the founder of these churches read, not only study but fasted, prayed, and had encounter with God.

The truth is, if all these churches are wrong, then Pastor kun must Have a re-think.

I rest my case on this thread, as i have done for the other thread.

God bless you all.

Another testimony is dat i'm greatful to God to live to see d day when hard hearted, stiff necked,, unrepentant, uncompromising war ready tithes collectors moved from "you rob God", "u r cursed with a curse",if don't pay tithe, u'll nt smell heaven, Devourer will finish u, things will b tight with u etc etc to "tithe is not by force", tithe is not compulsory,. GOD DOES NT NEED TITHE TO BLESS U, tithe does nt take you to heaven etc etc. This is d bigest MIRACLE, for a tithe Boko haram to change their heart is VERY BIG. God bless all tithe collectors for this shift, hopefully they will move to the next level of NO MORE TITHE. Haleluah. Praise God.

Perfectwazobia: Ready your Bible, 10% of your income belongs to God. You are are a false pastor trying to abuse the mind of people against God.
I pity your family because you may not reap the evil fruit alone. How many people have you bring to the knowlegde of Christ.
If you don't want to obey Bible must you look for followers. In the name of christ stop this, even Abraham payed tithe.
Ask the Holy spirit to give you understanding...Bewarned pastorkun! A dog that will be lost will not hear the beckoning of the owner!!!

idnoble135: Truly hilarious responses. grin
My testimony goes thus, ever since i joined NL, there have been fierce arguments.
I have read countless anti-tithe threads.
It has forced me to study and study more on the subject.
And my eyes were open to see light, and to see some salient points that i was never taught and never heard.
And now, i have confidence from the Word that tithe is God's will for us.
Thanks to all anti-tithers that forced me to study for personal discovery.
Somebody shout halleluyah! smiley

Ray McBlue: Religion easily has the best bullshit story of all time. Think about it. Religion has convinced people that there's an invisible man…living in the sky. Who watches everything you do every minute of every day.

And the invisible man has a list of ten specific things he doesn't want you to do. And if you do any of these things, he will send you to a special place, of burning and fire and smoke and torture and anguish for you to live forever, and suffer, and burn, and scream, until the end of time.

But he loves you. He loves you. He loves you and he needs money. grin

It's like a virus the eats up people's brains.

You have no business in this discussion. You need Jesus first. If tithe was what pushed you into atheism and now you ve heard people who are tellling you that giving tithe is not important, what we now expect from you is a testimony that you are now ready to serve God since tithe is not compulsory as you use to think. Without accepting Jesus into your life, any other contribution you are making here is a waste.

Pastor Kun:

How many fold returns do you get on your monthly tithes if it works for you?

You may not instantly get the picture unless I give a little background to it. When I heard of the tithe issue in church, I was at first skeptical but, with study on the scriptures given by the Pastor (Gen. 14:20, Gen. 28:22, Lev. 27:30, Num. 18:21, Deut. 12:6, Deut. 14:28, Deut. 26:12, 2Chr. 31:5, Neh. 10:38, Neh. 12:44, Neh. 13:12, Mal. 3:10, Matt. 23:23, Luke 18:12, etc), I realized that it was a function of Divine Revelation.

The first man that was revealed in the Bible to have paid tithe was Abraham (Gen. 14:20). He did this to Melchizedek (a form of the Holy Spirit - without father nor mother, ...) - a principle that worked for him. This incident took place long before the law of Moses was introduced. The law only continued on its principles...

The part of my testimony is that, after studying the subject of tithing, I decided to try it out. After all, faith is the response of man to what God has said irrespective of personal opinions or existing circumstances. So, I paid a tithe (10%) of my monthly Salary, and that month was extraordinary for me, as I received monies from people I didn't even know. I strongly believe that God was proving to me that His word works and is trustworthy if I respond to it in faith.

Prior to this time, managing my salary to meet with monthly demands was very challenging and I was struggling. After the first month of paying my tithe, I continued; ever since, I have had my salary increased four (4) times, with promotion, and I can comfortably meet the demands of the month.

Thank God for the revelation of the Tithe Principle.

TITHING REALLY WORKS!!!

If really it's true drummaboy was sacked as a church worker because of the tithe( i pray he is lying anyway maybe to generate sympathy and disciples grin) then it's rather a pathetic pity that the kind of mushroom churches we have these days are just private enterprises.

No one taught me to tithe,it's a revelation i had in the light of scriptures,believers should be encouraged and persuaded in scriptural truths and not bullied in God's vineyard.I would advise drummaboy to find a church where he could grow in the knowledge of the truth of God's word.If you tithe let it be between you and God not the pastor,if you don't tithe no wahala.Every one that comes to God is not a cast away.It is such a shame i am hearing this issue from drummaboy. undecided

Well, Bidam, it is true. My wife is broken hearted about it but the positive side of it all is that it is helping her to listen to what I have been saying all along on tithing.

The long and short of our debate here is that no one should be forced to do anything with their own finances. Unfortunately my church doesn't think so. Bidam, the church is not mushroom O, its one of the biggest churches in Ibadan.

Ps: To be fair to the church I work in d children's dept and the excuse ws that I shouldnt teach d children nonsense. But I heart that I may be sacked from my other workstations too.
