When an old Covenant command, lines our pockets, it's hard to let it go 10Samuel told all the words of the Lord to the people who were asking him for a king. 11He said, “This is what the king who will reign over you will claim as his rights: He will take your sons and make them serve with his chariots and horses, and they will run in front of his chariots. 12Some he will assign to be commanders of thousands and commanders of fifties, and others to plow his ground and reap his harvest, and still others to make weapons of war and equipment for his chariots. 13He will take your daughters to be perfumers and cooks and bakers. 14He will take the best of your fields and vineyards and olive groves and give them to his attendants. 15He will take a tenth of your grain and of your vintage and give it to his officials and attendants. 16Your male and female servants and the best of your cattle and donkeys he will take for his own use. 17He will take a tenth of your flocks, and you yourselves will become his slaves. 18When that day comes, you will cry out for relief from the king you have chosen, but the Lord will not answer you in that day.” 19But the people refused to listen to Samuel. “No!” they said. “We want a king over us" - 1 Samuel 8:10-19 Comparing with the above 1 Samuel 8:10-19 passage, 13 things, worth noting concerning WoF's tithing doctrine: 1) It is very obvious to spot similarities with a Ponzi scheme, where fraudulent investing scam promising high rates of return with little risk to investor is taught and promised - WoF have devised their own form of tithing which is completely at variance to the biblical tithing commanded by God the Bible. 2) The tithing doctrine taught by WoF is not the same as the now defunct and obsolete Israelites tithing practice earlier commanded by God 3) WoF tithing is mimicking a tithing practice which is no longer functional or which as far as God is concerned, is no longer existing or operating. 4) WoF is teaching tithing which God no longer commands. 5) The truth is that, the king in 1 Samuel 8:10-11, is the head of whichever WoF movement teaching a defunct, obsolete and fake tithe doctrine 6) As a matter of fact, 1 Samuel 8:12-14 are the die-hard fans of the "king" and others in the higher echelons of the WoF movement. The WoF disciples for their submissiveness are compensated with titles, positions, zonal posts etc or enjoy perks and favours for their blindfolded admiration and loyalty to the "king and his cohort" or WoF cause 7) If truth really be told, 1 Samuel 8:15 & 17, is the ruse WoF is practising and what is used for extorting from unsuspecting and ill-informed investors believers - It is not a God commanded or directed tithe in the real sense but rather it is a one tenth tax just like demanded by the Israelite king in 1 Samuel 8:15 8.) Unfortunately, 1 Samuel 8:16-19, is a reality, where believers are abused, used or misused by the WoF tithing doctrine but when warned, they refuse to listen. “No!” they say. “ Do not touch our sacred cow. We want the "tithing" over us" 9) WoF's tithing doctrine is a meal ticket and a faux-tithing set in place to fund the lavish lifestyle 10) WoF's tithing doctrine is nothing more than a 10 percent taxation masqueraded as tithing 11) Bonus here for those (e.g. hardcore tithers, die-hard tithers or pro-tithers) who think tithing is a do or die resolve: Forget Matthew 23:23, and check out Luke 18:9-14 to see who was justified between a tithe-giving Pharisee and despised tax collector 12) ANYONE HOLDING on TO the VIEW of that there is a PRINCIPLE BEHIND TITHING, CAN CLEARLY SEE IN Luke 18:14, that one is justified even without tithing, and also evident in the verse, the other is not justified despite tithing. - although tithing is now gone, there apparently, were things according to Luke 18:14, back then, more important than tithing. 13) Lastly, today, no Jew or any member of any synagogue in present day Israel or synagogues in the rest of the world pays tithe in the biblical commanded manner or with money (i.e. tenth of income) - they don't tithe, as they know it would be disobeying the law of God and a sin against God. - There is no more Levitical order of Priests ministering at a Temple in Jerusalem today, and so this makes it illegal to pay any form of biblical tithe to anyone else than the Levites. - It was ONLY the Levites who were ordained by God to receive or accept tithe - So today, any giver of tithe & any receiver of tithe (i.e. receiver, not of the commanded Levitical order) are both committing a grave offense to God - WoF should not be teaching tithe, besides the fact of not even being qualified, in the first place, according to God's command, to receive biblical tithe. - Peter, the Apostles, Paul and Jesus knew that to be eligible to receive tithe, one needs to be of the tribe of Levi this is why none of them taught tithing after the Cross and since the Temple veil was torn and besides, since Paul was of the tribe of Benjamin, Peter and Jesus of the tribe of Judah, the rest of the Apostles were not Levites neither of them sought tithing nor encouraged or taught any to give tithe to them or anyone else for that matter. - Peter and Paul, knew it is biblically improper to give and receive tithes so they did not depend on it, rely on it or plan to use biblical tithe for the development and spread of the Gospel On close, freewill giving done out of a willingness coming from the heart will ONLY be practiced by believers, if good and unadulterated teachings, devoid of tithing, are given, in faith to them. (i.e. faith as in the 3rd and last one, in Matt 23:23's more important aspects of the law--justice, mercy, and faith) By informing the readers of the truth behind WoF tithing and uncovering how WoF teaches tithing, the humble message of this post is two-fold: Firstly, when an old covenant command, lines in the pocket of such like WoF, it is hard to let go Secondly, the readership is hereby reassured, tithing has no place in believers' life after what happened on the Cross at Calvary https://www.nairaland.com/1790500/word-faith-movements-doctrine-proponents/7#25034517 1 Like |

Truth is that subjects like sabbath and circumcision have greater argument running for them than the tithes in the bible. We need to listen to the argument of an adventist on sabbath to appreciate this. Candour, I found your interaction with the OP of (that) thread on his other thread on Sabbath, I mean OLAADEGBU, very interesting. How he was able to support that conclusion on sabbath but would not do the same for tithes, beats me. OLAADEGBU: Words of Comfort: Keeping the Sabbath. Compare this with the OP on (that) thread: OLAADEGBU: Tithes and Offerings Does OLAADEGBU realize that Malachi 3:10 is a Jewish law, ordinance and commandment? I don't know, but do we realize that it was a bondage to the sabbath that Jesus contended the pharisees with; while Paul contended the religious leaders of his day on circumcision? Why do we then find it surprising that Satan would ruse up another Jewish religious practice to blind God's people from true devotion to God like he did in the past? There are no new tricks in the devil's bag. BabaGnoni: 5 Likes |

Re: 14 Lies About Tithes That You Should Know About. by DrummaBoy(m): 12:30pm On Aug 04, 2014 |
OLAADEGBU: Maybe you should look at the post I made up there and discover the true meaning of "equivocating". If in one breadth you support the notion that we should not observe the sabbath because it was a Jewish law but in another breadth, you bandy Malachi 3:10 about, a clear Jewish law and ordinance, what else is equivocating? EQUIVOCATE verb (equivocates, equivocating; past and past participle equivocated) (intransitive) To use words of equivocal or doubtful signification; to express one's opinions in terms which admit of different senses, with intent to deceive; to use ambiguous expressions with a view to mislead; as, to equivocate is the work of duplicity. To render equivocal or ambiguous. synonyms ♦ prevaricate ♦ evade ♦ shuffle ♦ quibble ♦ dodge ♦ adumbrate 4 Likes |

Zikkyy: abi o "ordinance of man" indeed. One would have thought that any careful reader will see that 1pet 2:13 was referring to civil laws governing nations. Well, of course, if we accept "ordinances of man" as church rules to tithe, then the much vaunted free will tithing will be a sham and we would return to the real gist, which is that modern tithing scheme are "doctrines of men" or better still "ordinance of men" 4 Likes |
