Why Do Churches Still Collect Tithes And Donations In These Hard Times by Davidblen(m): 9:36am On Oct 09, 2016
I Dont Know Why Many Churches Still Collect Tithes And Donations In This Hard Times When Things Are Not Going Well. Last Week Sunday I Went To My Friend Church (name Witheld) And After The Service The Pastor Was Calling For Donations For Pulpit Raising And He Was Asking For 10M Naira. i Was Suprised And I Ask My Friend Do They Want To Put Diamonds As Decorations, And He Said NO That They Want To Beautify The Altar More But I Said The Pulpit Is Okay But He Said No, Just Some Finishing Touching He Said *lekpemunaya Ooo* This Pastors Collect Money From Members Willingly Out Of Foolishness ( No Offence)

With people as radically vocal as u in this country, why do we still have a bad and corrupt government that is causing the hard times we are facing.

Hard times are the best times to collect tithes and offerings. The more desperate people get, the more they can be manipulated to give the little they have. With the doctrine of "the more you give, the more you get from god", Sow more to reap more", Challenge God" etc. The poor desperate person will even steal to place a divine wager.

It is the rich that finds it more difficult to pay tithes and offerings (especially those that make their money legitimately), those one are aware that riches depends on hard work, discipline and good money management. Churches in poor countries and in depressed economies are usually richer than churches in poor countries with booming economies.

Who will fund the Churches, are we expecting God to send money from heaven?
We should bring up issues of increasing names of new churches where every body want to Own a church. And using the money for personal establishments than reaching out to the needy.
