You obviously dont know how tu use small capital (Small Caps) letters in your post.

Money collected from tithes is still used to buy fancy cars, expensive ptivate jets, while the followers struggle by tithing

The confused here is you. Please follow the rules of the forum . You obviously dont know how tu use small capital (Small Caps) letters in all of your posts

Why do you use big capital letters? (We are not blind)

Typing in all caps is Internet code for shouting, and it is rude

I hope that you understand this time that all other members are using Small Caps, so please do not type in all caps

"The pot calling the kettle black". I had to post and repeat three time before you realise that you have to change your big cap letters and use Small Caps, so you are the one who lack comprehension skills. Do you realise that Even your own name on Nairaland is in Big Caps letters? shocked

[size=20pt][b]When you want to preach repentance, and born-again stuff you will quote John 3:16 and everything possible in New Testament

When you want to preach offering and tithes stuff you will quote Malachi 3:10 and everything possible in Old Testament

They are called Christian because they are Christ-like and not because of Tithes and Offering contributed

Where did Jesus collect tithes & offering from his followers in the Bible? He never did

They talk about the curse of Tithe in Malachi 3,,, as if they have not read Gal 3:13

Gal 3:13 CHRIST HAST REDEEMED US FROM THE CURSE OF THE LAW, BEING MADE A CURSE FOR US, FOR IT IS WRITTEN, CURSED IS EVERY ONE THAT HANGETH ON A TREE.

Maybe to them the Curse on the Law of Tithes is not part of what Jesus has redeemed us from?

Maybe to them Jesus can forgive other sins, save sinners from going to hell,heals the sicks and raise the dead, forgives generational curse; but when it comes to Tithes Jesus becomes powerless to break the curse on tithes & offering?

IF JESUS WERE TO BE ON EARTH TODAY, WILL TITHES BE IS MAJOR CONCERN? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. BECAUSE, WHEN HE WAS HERE, THAT WAS NEVER IS CONCERN... BUT NOW THAT JESUS IS IN THE HEART OF MEN, TITHES SUDDENLY BECOMES THE MAJOR TALKING POINT

Note: just like any social organization, it's nice to contribute financially for necessity purposes; but promoting tithes and offering as the major concern in church is not Godly. Jesus Christ & His Disciple never promoted the gospel of Tithes & Offering. How comes this generation?

Criticism are welcomed, and I do appreciate and respect others different point of views

Many thanks.[/b][/size]

Some people are still blind to reality. Remember, you serve God not man. Don't sponsor extravagance. Sponsor humanitarian services. That way you are giving to God. Don't idolize man.You only make him a candidate for hell fire! Offer to the needy and be blessed.

Learn to use the Dictionary for a correct spelling, you are now really polluting the forum with your numerous grammatical errors in all of your posts, and you are so lazy when typing that you avoid following the basic grammar rules (punctuation and capitalization). Stop embarrassing yourself online

1 - When starting a sentence, you should use capital for the first letter (you typed the word go in small cap: go instead of Go)

2 - you typed also a word that do not exist (ur instead of your)

The things of God cannot be understood by many, unfortunately even by the so called children of God! While I don't pay first fruit every year, I don't joke with my tithe and God has been faithful. I believe God rewards our faith/Obedience.
Bro I strongly support your view. All those who don't pay their tithes are seriously mistaken and will regret it if they do not repent on time.
Pay your tithes. If your pastor chooses to misuse that, he will give account though I wonder what your grouse is with pastors being rich. Are pastors supposed to be poor?
Tithes are commanded to be paid. First fruits are also expected to be paid. The fact still remains that any child of God who fails to pay his/her tithe to God will pay it to the devil one way or the other.

[size=20pt]You so belittle God to an ordinary mortal man like us. It was never accounted for in the Bible that Jesus nor his True Disciples collected tithes,first fruit... so, were they paying their own thithes or firstfruit to the devil too?

Have you not read that JESUS is the firstfruit? i Cor15:20-23;

20.But now Christ has been raised from the dead, the first fruits of those who are asleep. 21. For since by a man came death, by a man also came the resurrection of the dead.

22.For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be made alive

23.But each in his own order: Christ the first fruits, after that those who are Christ's at His coming...

What you mean is that you followed my order and advice today and you are now using the dictionary. Good!, you are very obedient and you are making progress but you do the same mistake again, when starting a sentence, you should use capital for the first letter. Keep making progess and one day you will be able to type the word you instead of u. Even when you use the dictionary I still have to correct your own mistake, (It is the word you instead of u). Check the spelling and grammar of your post next time

No problem with all these quotes about giving and one believing in them. My problem is how can you preach and practice this half of tithing and totally ignore the other half which is about how it should be used?

Do u need to care about the usuage?? It depends on the church anyways.. We know how we do things in anglican

you don't know a thing about Christianity, only God can judge, you can't change our minds with what you said, even if we pay our first fruit offering to a fake church and pray about it, God sees all, God knows all, he knows I paid it with my hard earned money, it's left for GOD to judge the pastor if he uses God's money for his selfish interest

what is he supposed to used the money for?

I don't pay tithes and I pay offering when I feel like. I have a free mind of my own, the pastor did not work for me

its strange the kind of 419 in churches these days.

A church just did their annual easter retreat by the side of Lagos business school after Ajah lekki. those who are familiar with this area will have witness the crowds and traffic during this period. the church acquired the land of recent

Before you are allowed to enter the camp ground you will have to get a delegate tag which cost N1,0009 a replica of Christ embassy strategy ( you see them).

The question a friend ask me was why was this not stated in the fliers given to people on the roads and billboards placed on the roads that everyone will be required to pay that amount before you gain entrance. because the idea of the fliers and billboards is to create publicity( attract more people to the program)

why must money be paid before one seek the face of God?
Come and see the push for funds from the congregation to build the different facilities within the complex just as winners did then.

who are the owners of this facilities the pastor, so tell me is this not a one man business as a church in disguise?

I have an independent mind as I go to church

Old topic but people will still come across it. So lemme comment.
Your tithe is 10% of your income. And God didn't say you should steal so don't twist it. Drop your tithe on the alter and go. Whatever the pastor does with it, is his business. You have done your part with God.

I give my seed to my pastor, when im asking God for something, that seed is like sowing into the man of Gods life for the anointing. I don't care if he squanders it.

Don't pay your tithe when you feel like, you're only joking with yourself nd God won't accept such. The devil is only putting that into your head to make you not obey.

Read your Bible. Malachi 3:10 and many more. God requires your money, your tithe, your seed. Your first fruit which is your first salary. Leave your pastor. If he is eating church money, God will definitely punish him. Tithers and seed sowers never lack. Don't talk about your pastors, the anointing that is with them is from God. Read your Bible well. Lemme ask you, are serving God or your pastor? Your pastors welfare is not your business.
