A true believers should know that tithe is compulsory but I don't believe it's right for you to be forced to pay it

Oktoberfest:

please explain "...in order nt to be removed frm the shush roll, and the amount needed to retain your membership"

Removal from church roll might suggest that said person who the letter was sent to isnt just a member but also a worker in the church therefore not being able to fulfil financial obligations might have a considerable effect on the roll of the said member in church.

If you are a church member and not just an attendee there are various roles you are tasked with amongst them is paying church dues, and also being able to participate in electing church officials to oversee the church affairs, contributing to the growth and development of the church also comes with being a bonafide member.

However being a church attendee does not give you these priviledges, you come to church only on sundays does not make you a member, there is a difference.

The fact that you can attend lectures in a university but you havent fulfilled all statutory and financial obligations of that university, does that make you a student?

Any pastor that collects tithe from his clients is a thief because Christ did not promise to bless his followers if they pay tithe. So, He cant deliver on a promise he didnt make in the first place. But he has made a better promise to hisfollowers in Jn 10:10 & Jn 3:16: A LIFE OF ABUDANCE AND EVERLASTING LIFE, which are way better than the blessings of open heaven that is based on tithe. Believe in Christ and have eternal life plus a life of abudance or believe in tithe and hope for windows of open heaven blessings Christnever promised christians. Make the right chioce today and stop being decieved these pulpit pimps.

. Even though they deny the dead for not fulfilling the rites, it didn't stop them for burying the dead!
You didn't get my point. The church won't hold burial rites because the deceased was in didn't pay up levies/dues while alive.

I remember when a friend in my hostel then in school had his expensive wristwatch seized because he couldn't sell all his daily manna books given to him to sell by the church. And funny enough, he didn't see anything wrong in that. Churches shouldn't be a burden on people.

Hey hun.. In as much as I appreciate your comment but can I kindly tell you that in my faith, I believe Jesus is LORD and in that context I can literally call him God and hey you don't have to believe me and feel free to go against me but respect my belief and I gladly Would.
Again my dear, read your bible very well or better still get a visual display of that; you can find that out on YouTube.
A good reference is titled
THE GOSPEL OF JOHN...
Having said that, need I say that I still stand firm with my initial assertion that GOD through Jesus punished destroyed the people who turned his fathers temple to a business hub....
Destroy in this context is in line with the traditional practice that where a man works, there he eats so if JESUS let out the birds to fly and turn over tables and have their money scattered all over.... What then is the definition of DESTRUCTION.
I appreciate you wanted to put me right* but be ready for an educative debate.
Cheers

oh, that you mean. but even though, if they understand the situation of the person or his background they still go ahead with the burial. Catholic traditions are not so strick to the call!
