Otth:it's very bad people misunderstand tithing. My brother, Paying ur brothers school fees is paying your tithe. people make lot of mistake with this. A tithe is not only payed in the church. tithe payed in the church is for everyone and tithe payed to the needy, less privileged, motherless kids and widows comes with much more blessings as said in the new testament. Remember tithe is meant to be given to God and Jesus said what so ever you do to you brother, u do to me. I pray God gives you understanding |

[quote author=crazysaint post=45485641]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. [Please go and pay your brother's fees. When God gave his only begotten Son "Our Lord Jesus" how much tithe did u pay him? What does God want or need your money for? It's really very sad knowing that we are mislead by religion or "men of God" who for the sake of their own bellies and greed encourage their flock to live in ignorance. As followers of Christ, we aren't meant to pay tithe. Tithe was one of the laws commanded by God to the Isrealites to pay to the levitical priests so that they can have food. But the priesthood has been changed also were the laws which made it. Jesus, the Most High Priest is from the tribe of Judah.... The old covenant has been replaced with a new one. Please read Hebrews Chapter 10.] |

It's a shame really that people are falling for this gullibility the OP is creating. No, it speaks much about the attitude of the so called Christians here. Rushing to defend what they think is conscience and rightful thinking. |

jabojafa: God doesn't ask for any money from him, that is only a trick from the pastors. if God really needs the money he would have just taken his own 10% before handing over his 90% to him. |

naijaboiy:You are suffering from delusion of grandeur. When you you dont know and you think you know, is the a very big problem!! Who told you paying tithe is dashing a pastor money? Tithe is between the op and God, no third party is included be it father, brother, mother or spoise. Its like giving someone his or her own share of a business deal. Its not in your place to spend ur partners money on his her or her behalf, or tell the person how to spend his share. Not paying tithe is not enriching any pastor if u have understanding is provoking divine bleasings on yourself. When you dont pay tithe,(10% of every increase) you are robbing God. |

For f*k sake, what's this I am reading. I can't even comprehend. My brain about to shut down due to human foolishness. Nairaland is at the same time diminishing my sense of reasoning as it increases it. Today you are happy going through a thread, tomorrow you are crying following another. Chai today 10/5/2016 at exactly 11.30 following this thread, I am crying. I need to unfollow this poo before my brain gets relegated. 2 Likes 1 Share |

God created us in his own image, so helping your brother is same as paying ur tithe, just that you are not giving it to your pastor or church. That's my understanding |

Any charity to make yourself a brother's keeper or a service to your fellow man in need, that is as good as a tithe or even better than a tithe that could go to make another pastor drive a second or third car to park it in a third house while he uses additional tithes to pay his own children's and brother's school fees. Do what ever charity calls to you and consider it God's work. The money never reaches God anyway, its to be spent on God's earthly children here and its not always a guarantee of good charity with churches these days ~pastors flying private jets . |

TV01: Don't mind all these charlatans screaming tithe this tithe that. Its a personal something without any form of mandation. I pay mine cos I want to pay it and I dont pay 10 percent but a stipulated approved petcentage which is reasonable. |

I read people talked about pay your tithe or pay the fees..hmmm, firstly use your digression, paying tithing or giving to church is more of a choice and your faith, just do what your heart says and what you feel is right, dont be too religious about it,try pray and ask God for direction |

Most of those shouting pay your tithe, I am very sure they haven't paid theirs in years. Op, for your peace of mind, open another thread requesting assistance to pay your brother's fees make I hear word for nairaland christians. |
Re: Should I Pay My Tithe Or Pay My Brother's School Fees? by ruffyola(m): 12:47pm On May 10, 2016 |
I'll be saying this islamicaly bro, in Islam we do Zakat either with money or foodstuff but its 1/10 of ur revenue for the year but there are certain conditions u must meet like you or any of ur immediate family member not owing a debt, like satisfying ur immediate family , by making sure ur parent and siblings are OK before observing Zakat. So I think u should attend to your brother's need first before that cos i also think God will not be happy to see ur bro fail. |

Re: Should I Pay My Tithe Or Pay My Brother's School Fees? by Richydos(m): 12:48pm On May 10, 2016 |
crazysaint:Even as I am not against the paying of tithes I still but ponder why when it comes to tithe paying there's is a reference to the old testament with no single scripture from the new testament to back it up..... D essence of the tithe like I understood from d old testament was for the availability of food for the men of God who aren't involved in the day to day activities n thus d essence of tithes so that there could be meat "food" in the house of God....... Ask yourself which of these pastors aren't involved in today's day to day activities not to talk about d cars, schools, jets N co that these so called pastors now have...... I still will prefer helping d needy with my money . Kindly pay your bro school bills |

jaybee3: Is it not morally justifiable to manipulate the tax and rather give back to the society than manipulate the same tax and fund an individual in the name of pastor who already has all the means?. Many will perish because of religion. |
