These football fueled betting and gambling outfits are another devastating plagues that are slowly encroaching the fabric of Nigerian society like endemic corruption and organised religion. They are as destructive as heroin,meth,blackmamba and all the self destructive class a drugs put together. The only person that wins in gambling is the proprietor. Just like the only person that wins in church is the pastor. Gambling is a hopeless man's fantasy and dream of financial freedom. 2 Likes |

Why is he doing the two when he knows they are not clean in the first place as a Christian. See even if they are clean with his statement he has Sinned. He has judged himself and he is judged. He knows they produce unclean money and he STILL engages in them. Now as to if it's proper to pay thithe with proceed from the two. NAIRA bet is betting which also means Gambling. God frowns at making money from somebody else's misfortune. And that is what happens in Gambling. so paying thithe with proceed from it may attract punishment. MMM is not betting it is give and take and nobody looses as long as the system is still intact the way it has been designed. Everyone that invests get their money back. I haven't heard anything lose money since it started. So nothing stops you from paying thithe from it. |

Greatzeus: I disagree with you with all due respect, why are you quoting the Nigerian laws ? The OP never mentioned paying taxes to the government he/she was only talking about paying the tithe (religious tax) and both Christianity and Islam are against gambling, so if you really want to make your point please bring proof from a religious text that support gambling not Nigerian laws as proof because this topic not about the government but the Church(religion) |

midolian: Why do people have this nonsense mentality? If everyone doesn't pay tithe and offerings and they all go out and give to the poor, how will the church be maintained? How will the church pay it's workers like the gardeners and others? If something, say a window pane, is bad, with what money will they use to repair it? You'll sit your ass down in church under the fan and listen through the speakers but is it free that the church will purchase the fuel to power the generator? If you want to be a christian, be a good one at least. Be reasonable. Some pastors might be squandering church money but you ain't God so let God judge them Himself. Bibijay123, coolgasman, what's your take on this matter? |

Why should you pay tithes at all? You are better off donating that money to charity |

Neroclassic:No no no what you just said is really not same as gambling because with your case of buying a product and hoping to also win in the same process let's say the value of a coca Cola bottle is #50 if you pay #50 with hope of also wining a prize if at the end of the day you didn't win any prizes The truth is that you also did not loose anything either because you still have your Coca Cola bottle worth #50 but in the case of gambling you tend to lose part or everything #$ you invest into it, most religion are against gambling because majority of the people that invest in it are guaranteed to loose their investments $# with only one or person gaining (that's on Godly) |

Giving money to man of God does not make you a religion slave, it is and was first practised by Abraham who was blessed beyond what u can imagine. Also, Christianity is or was never a religion it is a way of life. If you don't have encounter with God you are just calling your self Christian,to be a Christian is yo live like Christ, it is about human& spiritual serving service to GOD. Your tithes are to be paid in Gods house where u worship, offerings and helps should not be mixed..thank you..if you want to make sweeping religious statement please quote the Bible and not misguide people. midolian: |

TheSociopath:.......If you earn your money the right way then one shouldn't be caught in between paying tithe or not. We must also know that tithing must be a thing that comes freely from our mind and not seen as a bondage. Someone once told me and I agree that we are not saved by works, thus failing to tithe will not necessarily send you to hell, but doing so will help improve your life and strengthen your relationship with God. Is tight mandatory? I don't believe that God will curse us if we don't tithe, but I do believe He will help us escape the curse that is already in the world if we do. |

baridamhoney:my friend if u want to pay ur tithe go ahead and pay it stop looking for an excuse. He has answered ur question u are bringing another thing into it. MMM is a business u make profit from it, it is not an illegal something. It is strictly business so it is right u pay ur tithe with MMM. Case closed. 1 Like |

Lukay99: so if you really want to make your point please bring proof from a religious text that support gambling not Nigerian laws as proof because this topic not about the government but the Church(religion)[/quote] Yes that is what I am trying to say,no religious text forbids or supports gambling.It is been frowned at by the society,including me because of its downsides and addictive nature. So I have to bring in legality or its illegality to justify whether paying tithe from it is right or not. The bible is the sole authority when speaking from a christian perspective, but since its not stated expressly that gambling/MMM are wrong, I use the law of the country ie their legality. Which so far both are legal,since no law in the country forbids them yet. I am not arguing for or against gambling,I hate it and I don't indulge in it. |

So far I've been reading comments of people saying gambling is sin but I can't see anyone producing a scripture in the bible that talks about gambling.Gambling in the old times is something people did to make quick money and it was done by mostly drunks,robbers and so on to. the point the act carried the tag as bad.Gambling leads to violence and disagreement if the terms are not clear, someone wants to cheat or someone who loses decides to lynch you to get back his possession you won from him but gambling as a act is not sin.Same goes with hard drugs that are used on prescription is good but when it gets abused it becomes illegal. People should try to bring scriptural reference condemning stuffs to back their claims and stop talking from what you heared when you were little about gambling but never saw it written clearly. 1 Like |
