[quote author=moscobabs]there is a particular Church I went to before I got my Job ,the Pastor there seems to be man of God.when He attended to me he said I'm gonna get the job only if I promise to be paying my tithe in his church.I was thinking that the idea is wrong but when u don't have job u will be desperate to day yes to everything then I agreed.I got the job in 2009 and I paid my tithe to his church for complete 2yrs even when I was transfed to benin i was paying it to his church account before I finally stop that so called tithe.[/quote] oga y did u hav 2 stop? |

Its wrong.You pay your Tithe in your Church where you worship because thats where you get your spiritual nourishment. You can decide to make a donation,or goodwill offering or even sowing a side in another Church if you are lead to do that but certainly not yo ur tithe. (For instance i can not be in lagos worshiping in my Church and then send my Tithe to my Village church.The best i can do to help the other church is to make a free will donation to any other Assembly as you are lead ) Happy Sunday |

A reputable research done by TVL Global Financial has shown that nigerian pastors have a combined futurne of 1.5 trillion naira. The first ten richest pastors own 80% of this forturne and they're all Yorubas. 90% of this futurne comes from tithe paid mostly by Igbos who for inexplicable reasons continue to fall for the antics of incorrigible lieing pastors from a certain part of Nigeria. The research also showed that Yorubas don't attend churches where the pastor or GO is somebody outside their ethnic group. South Easterners and South.S. should wake up and smell the koffi. These two ethnic groups are on downward spiral because scarce resource are being sent to criminal pastors for the development of their regions. Can you imagine how many banks 1.5 trillion can establish, how many private universities it can build, how many shoping malls it can built, how many orphans it can help, how many widows it can feed. They use your money to buy up Nigeria for their gang while you continue playing mumu. Most major industries are in the hand of these group and their ethnic group and the source of the funding is your tithe. You have to wake up or your departed ancestors will never allow you to progress. 6 Likes |

Okay, so I don't know how regionality entered this arguemnt!! Pls we're all one country for now abeg (˘̯˘ ). Nd the bible doesn't say anywhere that u should pay tithe to any one church u go to cos u get ur nourishment from any one place so (˘̯˘ ) Nd tithing is a Jewish law/custom. We're nigerians. We prostrate, greet elders, eat kolanut and more. But tithing isn't our custom. Jews of today still pay tithe cos it's their custom (not completely sure of this part tho, sure of all else). But it's jewish custom since days of old. Paul in adressing difference in religion vis a viz cutom/culture said the gentiles need not be circumsised cos it is a jewish law. Hence by same logic, tithing is a Jewish law. We don't need to do it. Nothing wrong in giving to the church tho, bt these pastors are all either scammers or are ignorant. |

christemmbassey: tithe is the BIGEST FRAUD IN HUMANITY, THERE IS NO SINGLE VERSE IN D ENTIRE BIBLE WHERE CHRISTIANS ARE COMMANDED TO PAY 10% OF THEIR SALARIES/WAGES TO GOD, JESUS, PASTORS OR CHURCH. Yes we should give /contribute and help each other, if u pay tithes to get anything from God, it means, what Jesus did at d cross was nt for you, you are still in ur sins. Bro mbok, kop akpan iko.

Tithe should be considered as our moral obligation we must perform as a christian. It doesn't matter where you pay it because it is of God not man. It is parallel to the civic obligations we owe to the State as its citizenry. So it doesn't matter where you before you perform your civic obligation. |

As far as your tithe is going to where it's needed as stipulated by the bible then the church you pay it shouldn't be a problem. |

Well when i got my job back then i asked my pastor the same question; His response was, it is good to pay your tithe in the church that you receive spiritual blessing Tithe, is very important, if you dint pay it there is even a penalty for it in Leviticus 27.31 you will add 20% as interest that is the penalty. |

chaplin4u: Why is it the case that most Christians associate the house of the Lord to be a physical building -i.e your local church? God doesn't live in buildings, he lives in people. According to 1 Corinthians 3:16 - Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and [that] the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? If you want meat to be in the house of the Lord, then you must bless people with your tithes. - Loving this way is consistent with what Jesus taught, lived and died for. Your pastor does not need another Jet, your neighbour on the other hand need food to eat and a roof over his head, cater for him first with your tithe and God will bless you in multiple folds. 3 Likes |

You pay your tithe in the church you receive God's blessings, as for christians that give their tithe to the poor and needy, you are only deceiving yourselves, it baffles me when humans act wiser than God. God says bring your tithes to his house, the same way He says His house shall be called the house of prayer, so if you give your tithe to the poor you have only given alms which has its own reward but God still sees you as a robber. Nothing stops you from paying ur tithes to church and still giving alms to the poor, both are God's instructions as written in the scripture & both are responsibilities of christians. 3 Likes |

RedBenson: I just want to know cos we were having a serious argument yesterday. Some people said nothing is wrong with it from the originality point of view cos tithe was meant for evangelism and for destitutes which any church paid into it could do if truly willing. Some said your tithe must go to the church where you worship as a member.It depends |

Liar!! Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’ 31 The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no commandment greater than these.” You Love God by spending time in worship! You Love your neighbor by caring for their needs Nothing else matters! This is the whole scripture summed up into two parts. 2 Likes |

I don't belive in tithe! Cos the main purpose God introduced it has been defeated. You see pastors today owning big business or working and earning money for themselves and still demanding for tithe, I tot God said d isrealites shld b paying tithes becos the priests den don't have any means to support or fend for themselves and their families, so the tithes is how they eat. But today its no more like dat, billionare n millionare pastor insisting, demanding and treating their members for tithes despite their chains of businesses.( And plz don't tell me they use d money For other developmental purposes cos dey ask for money wenever they want to embark on any project) So just like we don't offer blood sacrifices to God anymore, so also tithing is not necessary. 4 Likes |

SO STRANGE! Isn't it strange how N500 seems like such a large amount when we give it as offering, but such a small amount when you go shopping? Isn't it strange how 2hrs seem so long when you're at place of worship, and how short they seem when you're watching a good movie? Isn't it strange that you can't find a word to say when you're to make supplication to God, but you have no trouble thinking of what to gist about with a friend? Isn't it strange how difficult and boring it is to read one chapter of the Scriptures, but how easy it is to read 100 pages of a popular novel or magazine? Isn't it strange how everyone wants front-row-tickets to concerts, film house or games, but they do whatever is possible to sit at the last row in the holy gathering? Isn't it strange how everyone wants a place in Paradise, but they don't want to believe, do, or say anything to get there? 5 Likes |
