{Matthew 7:7-8} “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.
"For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened.
These verses-have nothing to do with tithing-Jesus is preferring to the Word of God
{Matthew 6:33} First seek the Kingdom of God and His righteousness and all things shall be added to you.
{Joshua 1:8} God is telling us seek His Word.
He's not telling us, we need to buy our way into His rest, the Kingdom of God can't be brought with money-we can't purchased it through our finances, the Lords main attraction is all about His people learning the Word of God-and do everything that's written in it-obeying Him..
None of these scriptures {Matthew 13;13, John 4;24, 10:27} have anything to do with paying tithes to Kingdom Hall, It's understandable why the Lord said this, This is why I speak to them in parables: “Though seeing, they do not see; though hearing, they do not hear.
So it's quite understandable why you don't listen, because you haven't received the Kingdom of God.. .
I am trying to help you here 'Max?

Looking you will but you can't see, hearing you will but you can't get the sense! Matthew 13:13

My original post says "old covenant tithing is unchristian" but as usual you rushed in to quote me instead of humbly asking if there is anything like New Covenant tithing! Matthew 7:7-8

Well i have told you "We (JWs) know how to pay our TITHES" you aren't on the same page with us so go and resolve your issues with your own people.

As for JWs we must pay our TITHES but we won't TEACH you how we're doing so in spirit and truth {John 4:24} because you're not one of the sheep belonging to our Master, Lord and King Christ Jesus! John 10:27

At least there's agreement in our midst regarding the word of our God! John 17:22 smiley
Re: Can Tithe Be Given To Someone In Need?. by brocab: 12:43am On Dec 01, 2022
So of course {John 17:22} may sound all glory to you, but you have already mentioned you worship other gods.
{2 Corinthians 11:12-15} But what I do, I will also continue to do, that I may cut off the opportunity from those who desire an opportunity to be regarded just as we are in the things of which they boast.
For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into apostles of Christ.
And no wonder! For Satan himself transforms himself into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also transform themselves into ministers of righteousness, whose end will be according to their works.
The world knows them by name: the Watchtower organisation, so it's no great surprise-that kingdom hall are workers of iniquity...

Jesus Christ is the King of kings and the Lord of Lords.
I just love scripture:
{Hebrews 1} Let all the angels of God worship Him.” {Even your god-Michael the arch, bows down before Jesus}
And of the angels He says:
“Who makes His angels spirits
And His ministers a flame of fire.”
"But to the Son He says: “Your throne, O God, is forever and ever;
A scepter of righteousness is the scepter of Your kingdom.
You have loved righteousness and hated lawlessness; Therefore God, Your God, has anointed You
With the oil of gladness more than Your companions.

It's pointless arguing with me over scriptures-I never wrote the bible, I realize it's sad for you-But this is the Word of God.
And I would never deny the truth.
I do understand you worship a pagan god-but as a true witness for Christ-I am sharing the written Word of God-Just the Way the Lord said 'share His Word to all nations..

Bro Max, he says he's trying to help you walk away from the organization.
It is just like a village head of a slim going to meet someone in the white house, USA to leave that place and live in the slum...

Numbers in attendance are growing rapidly, since we've resumed public ministry, I've been inviting people to the KH and they've indicated interests.
Instead of saying the attendance in churches are decreasing, he said the attendance in the KH is decreasing. What a blind liar!

All worshipers with contradicting teachings and conflicting doctrines are against one another's Gods. For instance the God of Catholics is against that of Deeperlife but only JWs will never pick up weapons against flesh and blood, while you people are killing one another with physical weapons {Revelations 6:3-4} we are fighting against your Gods!

Tithing is not for Christians.
It was OT requirement for the Jews.
So was first fruits.

We are however expected to give to support God's servants & God's work, not by compulsion but freely from a loving heart as much as we can afford.

Therefore let's give liberally, even sacrificially, if so led by the Holy Spirit, but let's not call it "tithe".

Yes you can give to people in need what you originally planned to give to Church.....AS LED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT.....May we always have to give to Church & man in abundance.

I just like the christian on Nairaland to help me throw more light to this,
I once had my tithe with me when someone walked up to me for an assistance to discharge her family from hospital. After confirming that it's true, I just dropped my entire tithe to pay the bill and believe I had paid my tithe but somehow I was told that since I didn't drop it in the church am yet to pay my tithe.
forget all those idiots and religious slaved who would tell you it is a must to pay your Tithe in church... Infact eat your Tithe, if you can't eat it give it to someone else that is in need, motherless babies, widows etc..

It Is very funny that it is the tithe version of the old testament that thieves disguised as men of God can lay their life preaching, yet none is talking about the Polygamy portion of same old testament.. It says one thing only, they only Preach to you the part that will enrich their pocket to add private jets to the already existing fleet etc... If you like pay Tithe now till forever, if you don't work smart u will suffer... I'm so sure 90% Of World richest and most successful men today didn't pay Tithe to anybody....give freewill offering, Do good to the needy, use your Tithe to transform the life of those in situations that you can help, forget that church own, it is a lie...
