Attention All Tithe Payers & Non Tithe Payers! by ayomifull(f): 9:43pm On Oct 20, 2008
FOR TITHE PAYERS:

For those Christians who pays tithe i want to beg you in the name of Jesus Christ who you claim to love so much not to pay your October tithe to your various churches but to pay it to save a life. I am sure that Jesus Christ would be more interested in us paying our tithe to save this young guy's life than pay it to do some other things the tithe is needed for.


FOR NON TITHE PAYERS:

I have read several times how some christians has argued that tithe should not be paid to churches for some pastors to spend and that the purpose of it is to help those in need. This is time to prove you actually meant this by paying an equivalent of what your tithe should be for this month not to a church but to save a young guy's life.

FOR MUSLIMS:

I also want to implore you as well to pay what you call 'Zakat' to help a guy in pain.

What pains me most here is what that young lady who was expecting a blissful marriage life on her wedding day has been going through for the past 3 years. The emotional, physical, psychological torture. Every bride at least enjoy the early years of the wedding but this lady must have been crying for the past 3 years. Her husband can not even sleep with her talkless of showering her with those things new iyawos deserve.

I do not know these people, i only read about this here in Nairaland earlier today and i have not been able to take my mind off it. Please let us show compassion and be our brother's keeper and exemplify Christ life by giving priority to this. Christ came but to SAVE.

Thanks and God bless you all

I believe we as christians should endeavour to lend a helping hand, but one question is there a way of independently verifying this info and ascertaining that the money actually gets to the Man who needs it? This is naija there are too many 419 scams being played out today
