u are the one giving wrong advice. So if all the money u have left is ur tithe and u see a patient that needs surgery or will die in a few hours. Will u choose to pay for his surgery or carry the money to church in form of tithe?? Pls answer this

please don't blame him. The way some preachers teach this tithe message, leaves their members in fear of what may happen if the don't pay their tithe.

joke not with tithe.... To me i will advice you to pay your tithe first. Now checkout the blessings that follows in payment of tight: The windows of Heaven will be
opened to you.
''Bring ye all the tithes into the
storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now
herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I
will not open you the windows of
heaven, and pour you out a blessing,
that there shall not be room enough
to receive it.'' (KJV)
God promised to pour His blessing to
you, by opening the windows of
Heaven. When your heaven remains
open you will struggle less. little
effort will yield bountiful harvest.
Opportunities will be staring at you
even you are not there the
opportunity will still be waiting for
you.
You must be a wicked person to give such an advice. when its your turn pay your tithe and leave your brother out of school. You go believe!

God doesn't need ur money, he motive of paying tithe is to help the needy.
Its quite obvious that your brother fall in the category of the needY.
Pay you brother's school fees dont be ignorant.

Okay, this is a challenge I need a solution to. My parents are saying no money no money when it is obvious that they have. My little brother is home because he has outstanding fees so I was wondering if I should give him my tithe to pay part while I pay the tithe next month when I get my next salary, I don't know what to do.

Mods please move it to fp, I need urgent solution to this.
Is this a question? My brother open your eyes. How can u think of paying your tithe instead of ur brother's school fees? Anyway, maybe u believe in wonders. if u try am u go believe!

this is no Brainer question ..Pay your tithe to honour and trust your God , I think this is the only way you can express your faith if you truly believe that he is your source financially .. ..and he will supply the school fees ...test him in this occasion

All of you advising him to pay tithe as against paying his brother's fees are high on osogbo weed for real.
You guys are not Christians you are just religious cos if you are Christians you would not say this rubbish, even Jesus said the law was made for man and not man for the law. In the good Samaritan story, the priests and Levite passed by the wounded man cos they were going to the temple and they didn't want to be late or unclean but Jesus condemned them cos someone in need comes 1st. Stop listening to your pastor listen to your humanity, someone in need comes 1st before everything else.

Are you saying it's acceptable to evade tax and rather use the money to pay tithe than use it for humanity sake?

It's already inconsiderate and insensitive taxing a benevolent act. You'll agree me that even Christians evade tax yet don't care about humanity with their wealth.

Oga, please read on Tax relief and how it's usually exploited by the wealthy

Maybe he has spent the 90%. What if what he has left is not enough to pay the fees and he has to add the 10% to pay the fees. would u suggest he pays his tithe first? For me that will be a silly thing to do. because paying of tithe is not a gateway to heaven. if u pay tithe always and u don't live a life that pleases God u are wasting ur time

Please Study this scripture...

“What sorrow awaits you teachers of religious law and you Pharisees. Hypocrites! For you are careful to tithe even the tiniest income from your herb gardens, but you ignore the more important aspects of the law—justice, mercy, and faith. You should tithe, yes, but do not neglect the more important things.

You are serving a living God and not just some gods... He is a father and not task master. Follow your heart. Very difficult for anybody to advice you here...not even ur pastor or parents. U might have so much faith that after u might have paid ur tithe, God might choose to open flood gates of blessing for putting him first... And u might chose to pay ur brothers school fees and God says because u helped this little one u have also helped me... In all know that God is a father and alive, and whichever u choose, do it with sincerity of heart..

You don't know what to do, really, like reeel--ly? Why don't you empty your bank account and hand it over to your church while your brother stays home and turn kidnapper in few months and come after you, after all, the church will come to your rescue with some ransom. Why some so called church people are unchristian, unrealistic, lack pragmatism, zombish in their twisted thinking can't stop amazing me. So you have no common sense right? Here then is the answer for you: pay the tithe so that your pastor can purchase new suites, shoes and a penthouse to bleep his numerous choir girls. RETARDED. Pay tithe and tell bros to wait, manna will come from heaven and please tell him that you are a church goer and going with the fees to church for tithe so you can leave him behind on your way to heaven.

Just some thoughts.
Firstly, the idea that God will understand simply depicts how ignorant and childish people act. why don't you climb a 10 story building and jump down and say gravity will understand so nothing will happen to you.
Secondly, who do you trust, God or Man? God said give me your tithe and man say don't pay your tithe. I know why those people said you shouldn't pay your tithe because they see with their physical eyes as giving the tithe to man because its a pastor that is receiving it.

I have always considered this scripture that says "...all things works together for those who love God"
but how do you love God?
another scripture says "... if you love me,you will keep my commandments"

Sometimes we don't understand what our tithes does for us.
if I have to choose between what God has said over my family, I will choose what God has said without thinking twice.
Pay your tithe and if u can get any cash from someone, do so and repay such person back when u collect your salary.
PAY YOUR TITHE.

Yes am high, but not on your so called osgbo weed. What i told her is what i would do if i were in her situation by Gods grace. The same bible says obedient is better than sacrifice. God could see her sincere heart to obey and pay the tithe even in her difficult situation and send her unexpected help.
