Babzilla: A question was asked. If you are in your way to church and you meet some one in desperate need (accident victim, stranded or sick person) who needs urgent and immediate help and you have just your offering or "tithe" and tp. Would you help that needy person out from that gift you have prepared for God. 2 Likes |

INTROVERT:You're definitely one of the mordern day church goers who take only the part of the bible that soothe their pleasure and leave out the inconvenient ones dermmy:Having a conversation with your pastor on the form in which u want to pay your tithe shouldn't be a problem. Your point would make more sense if you've had that conversation with him before raising this argument. |

maximunimpact:You don't pay tithe yet issues on tithe keep getting your attention...Lol. You should probably spend this energy and intelligence on how to please God by obeying him on tithe and not how to please your pastor |

decode55:of course. It is the type that Pharisees practice. The "put on the mask of a good Christian in public, but be Satan's advocate under the mask" type of Christianity. The fact that people with a supoosed brain even defend these psdtors is more disturbing than Buhari and his recession 8 Likes |

INTROVERT:It amazing this was the same Example jusus used... Mat 12:11 And he said unto them, What man shall there be among you, that shall have one sheep, and if it fall into a pit on the sabbath day, will he not lay hold on it, and lift [it] out? But unfortunate Christians don't even Understand what the word Christian Means... 2 Likes |

RadicallyBlunt: So it has come to the point where people should start negotiating the form in which they would like to pay their tithes...JESUS wnd the Apostles taught us that right? The book of Malachi 3:10 says bring ttithes to the store house that there may be food in my house. You need to ask your pastor to show you the store house and ask him where are the foods coz that verse said food and not money... Many Christians don't understand God's word..i speak this to their shame 1 Like |

RadicallyBlunt:Oga u need to read ur bible again. it is ur responsibility to spend ur tithe for 'whatever your heart desires' 'you shall eat there before the LORD you GOD, and you shall rejoice, you and your household'. You only invite the levite to come and partake because he has 'no portion of inheritance with you, and the stranger, and the fatherless and the widow who are within your gates , may come and eat and be satisfied, that the LORD may bless you in all the work of your hand which you do' 6 Likes |

RadicallyBlunt:if I don't pay my tithe, I am not answerable to any pastor but to God. The same way the pastor is not answerable to the congregation on how he uses the funds contributed by members of his congregation. 7 Likes |

dermmy:Your concern now is that its food that shd be brought to the church not money OK tell me as the provider for your family(you're a man I guess) when was the last time u went to farm and hired farm labourers to help you take yams rice beans and other foodstuff from the farm to ur house? Instead what you do is withdraw money from the atm, give it to ur wife who's headache is to go to d market (not farm) to get foodstuffs and u will brag u are the provider of your family You're not worth it my dear. Go to farm |

while tuition fees of some churches' universities tuition fees are 'spiritually pegged' in an economy facing serious recession,other universities owned by churches in developed world like USA are far cheaper than the state/federal owned universities in those countries. Churches like redeem are asking for more tithes and offerings more than ever asked |

RadicallyBlunt: At least I gave you three bible passages on new testament and tithing and you can't even give one ... Hnmmm I just wonder. In the old testament, that's before Jesus came and died, the Jews were commanded to give 1/10, offer burnt offerings and bring their first fruits and the high priest would pray for them. Deut12: 5-6, 11-13 . however our high priest now is Jesus and there is no need for that because Jesus never did it, Hus disciples never did it, the apostles never did it nor have I seen an example after Christ died of Christians doing it. Please I ask again show me a reference in the new testament that implores Christians on paying tithe. Luke 6:38, 1cor 16:1-2, 2cor 8:6-9 3 Likes |
Re: Pastors And Thier Role In This Recession by dermmy(m): 8:38am On Nov 06, 2016 |
RadicallyBlunt: Believe me if our pastors tell us to go to farm to bring farm produce as tithes and create a store house for them we would glady turn into farming and it's going to help church members that are hungry infact in this time of recession the church will roll out foods into the society and many people would feel the love of christ. And farming will help our country because we need more farmers. But our pastors have changed the word of God by turning tithes into money and sending them into their own store house which is their bank account. Ask me more questions i'm ready to lift the veil off your face and liberate you 5 Likes |

Babzilla:It is against the laws of nature to take and not to give and vice versa. It breeds stagnation and starvation and the deprived part ultimately suffers. The church must not be seen as contributing to suffering hence it must learn to circulate wealth just as it has become a master in wealth creation. Even Jesus was giving and taking unabashedly. |
