Should Students Be Paying Tithes. by Cashio(m): 7:53am On Oct 20, 2013
One of my friends who came back from schoool refused to go to church today because his parents refused to give him money for tithe.So i decided to enquire if it is necessary for students to be paying tithes.

Nobody should be paying tithe. Can you see how the message of tithe has hindered your friend from listening to the word of God.

Any pastor compeling u to pay tith is a thief. Use d moneY to help d less privilaged around, thts Gods command n not for a pastor 2buy more luxury cars, private jets n univerties which d poor can nt afford.

Cashio: One of my friends who came back from schoool refused to go to church today because his parents refused to give him money for tithe.So i decided to enquire if it is necessary for students to be paying tithes.

Why will anyone be collecting tithe from his parents or anyone to give in church in the first place? Does he not have his own pocket money or the gifts he receives from people that he can give tithes from if he so wishes to? If he doesn't let him be.

Tithe is to be taken from increase, yield, of what God gives you and dedicated or set-apart in appreciation and acknowledgement. Even same for offering but many parents just give offerings to their children just to imbibe the culture of giving.

Any giving is based on the level of our faith.

From my early high school days I have been giving tithe of the gifts or pocket money I have, before I started working, and I used to give out my lunch money to beggars I often passed on my way home. I didn't start giving alms or tithe because I was expecting anything, I was a student, but because I was moved by compassion and because I appreciated God for even giving me anything at all.

Let our hearts be driven with the right spirit.

So tell your friend to go to church and stop being defiant.

For if there be first a willing mind, it is accepted according to that a man hath, and not according to that he hath not.

This is what I wrote on a tread that proceeded this on tithing I only bolded the student part.
Tithe is an erroneous msg so including students is unthinkable
1. We are against the pastors receiving tithes because they are not levites (Heb 7:5) and the doctrine because we are not of the law but of a better hope by which we draw near to God.(Heb 7:19).
2. I was paying tithe but as i matured in christianity and understood Grace and Truth (John1:17) i stopped but mind you my love for God and my service in the body of Christ at times takes up to 30% of my income.
3. Our mission on Nairaland is to save the body of Christ from wolves that have come in sheep's clothing Matt. 7:1-end(15), to halt the proliferation of criminals that have hijacked our pulpits today and to stop the wickedness of someone telling A STUDENT WHO CAN BARELY FEED, or a young man who cannot afford food and drugs for his aged parents or a market woman who cannot change the mosquito nets in her house to part with 10% of his/her income in the name of paying tithe. The merciful and compassionate God that i serve cannot make such demands only that people have not studied God's word properly and left themselves at the mercy of these greedy 'pastors'.
Please where is Frosbel we are missing him o!

From the little i knw, i think only those earning salaries are supposed to pay tithe, cos its ur sweat. As a student, u are not working, and ur pocket money is not a salary because u didnt worked for it. I dont think students are compelled to pay tithe. **my opinion*
Happy sunday to u all

As a student who come from a christian family, I believe your parents must have paid their tithe on their income, so, they don't have to give you another money for your own tithe and you don't have to pay tithe on the money given to you either.

You don't ask your parents for money to pay your tithe, you can ask for money for offering, His tithe would be from his own pocket, e.g. may be out of his allowance or if he has other means of income.

Pastors are suppose to be our shepherds and not people to exploit us.they are suppose to lay a good example for us to walk in.rather they have turned Christianity and churches to business centers.Jesus Christ travelled by foot to different cities,there were options of him using a horse donkey or camel but he walked.our so called pastors now have collections of private jets.bloody business men, I can't put my dime into any church as tithe rather I ll give the money to the needed and Their thnkyous will take me a long way.

..Tithe is Just an Act of Giving, It Must Not Be in the Church. Giving To the Poor and Less Privilege is also a Form of tithe not Enriching Our pastors and Clergy men.

If you don't have, there is Nothing Wrong, It Simply means you don't have any to give which is Understandable!

If you pay tithe, you affirm that all the laws of the old must be applied without exception. Could this be the will of God in this age? Should man refrain from using his God-given faculties?
Re: Should Students Be Paying Tithes. by Cashio(m): 11:52am On Oct 20, 2013
To me, tithing is not necessary for a student cos he has no income.
