Malachi 3 vs 10 has nothing to do with christians. Thite then had an earthly purpose, to cater for the levite priests who had nothing doing except to work in the house of God. Instructions were giving to the isrealites to submit a tenth of their proceeds or else faced the wrath of God.

Today, God no longer dwells in houses made by human hands but in all christians. So if tithe was still applicable, we all should be entitled to tithe. But that's not the case in the new testament.

Now we are to give to one another as purposed by the spirit of God in our heart so that no one suffers from lack...and is tempted. Not give to one man in the name of God.

U are twisting the bible meaning using your humanly reasoning

I am not a Pastor/Rev in fact am a catholic to be specific
but I have said earlier am a practical Christian

Fantastic that you are a catholic , when did the catholic church start talking bout tithe , its not up to five years ago .
They had no option because most members were going to pentecostal churches to tithe, so they reluctantly had to introduce it
Like i said earlier tithe is a beautiful thing that should not be enforced as obtainable in pentecostal churches

jasysandra:
This church is now a business thing is calling for concern. What pains me the most is going to a church service to worship and from the beginning of the service till the end all you hear is money. I recently stopped going to church cause I am not learning anything new. I go with my pen and notepad every Sunday to learn but end up hearing same thing in different ways.

I know we still have good churches out there but these bad one are so much and are poisoning the mind of Christians.

Its better to wait for the master's drink no matter how long it takes than drink the freshest wine that is toxic

And what's wrong with someone paying tithe online. Money is money, payment is payment, whether in person or online. I see no reason for all this fuss.

Once upon a time, people also criticized pastors who preached from tablets. They queried why they didn't preach from paper-bound bibles. Today, no one speaks of that anymore. Also, once upon a time, you were labelled a carnal brother if you wore jeans to church. If a lady wore trousers, she was seen as being lost to the world. Assorted musical instruments and nice church auditorium finishes were regarded carnal. But today, the same critics sometimes wear jean trousers or jean jackets (or both) even to minister. They raise hundreds of millions for their building projects, they purchase assorted musical instruments, and so on.

Times change and so do methods of doing things. When Abraham gave tithe in Genesis 14, he didn't stuff currency notes in an envelop to present to Melchizedek, he gave "a tenth of the spoils" (which of course, were tangible objects). Times change, the most important should be that you gave your tithe (if you believe in such). The method used is just secondary. The same way the laws of God (the gospel) was first on tablets of stone, then in scrolls, then in paper-bound printed materials (bibles), then on electronic gadgets (tablets and phones). Whether on stone tablets or scrolls or electronic gadgets, God's word still holds its efficacy and will still work for you if you use it appropriately. Whether you present a tenth of the yams in your barn, or stuff a tenth of your income in an envelop or transfer a tenth of you 'credit alert' to your church's account, it makes no difference. Over time and generations, methods change.

If you don't tithe, then just ignore tithing (and every method it comes in) and ignore tithers when they do their thing. Baba Freeze better get a life.

malachi 3 vs 10

Do Catholics pay tithe?

It is a command but God still gave u free will to obey or disobey
So do as u wish

kingobozy:
I see absolutely nothing wrong in creating an app that members can use to pay their tithe. It's God's commandment that we pay our tithe and sometimes your tithe can enter into thousands of naira. With cashless policies and all it would be quite difficult to pay in cash so going cashless can come in handy in this case.

I think where Freeze and other hypocritical people will come in is that the church is trying to extol their members. They have forgotten that CHANGE is CONSTANT.

Were in the Bible is it written that we should psy tites.. . We were only instructed to use tites eat things we lust after in the house of God and remember the poor n perist.. . Dect 14vs 22 down.. So i don't know if people read Bible at all

Some people kill and destroy for their religion and still have new converts upon blood but here is Christianity where people wail over N500 tight.

chynie:

that's not tithe, that is humanitarian.
tithe must be paid to the house of God to cater for God's servants as God himself instructed

when did bible say tithes are meant for pastors and co?

Read the books of leveticus,number and deuteronomy...they dealt xtensively on tithing and its uses......infact,tithing is meant for tithers,the poor etc....this is d major reasons y these pastors dont use those aformentioned books when preaching about tithing


Tithing was abolished in new testament.

Freeze with frozen brain.
What is your problem with this? Were you forced to do it?
What importance are to those in your family? Why not face your jobless ass

EWAagoyin:
the only pastor worthy of tithe according to me na tb Joshua the charity that man does is out of this world.

FYI: I'm not in anyway endorsing him or goes to his church infact I'm a Muslim just speaking for what I saw him doing to help people. #peace

Una go just dey talk nonsense,and GOD said the tithe must be money??

DavidTheGeek:

Your stuupidity is outta this world.

If he wants to pay "tithe", then he should do it the way the bible asked him to pay "tithe" - pay it to the church.

Giving to the needy is not "tithe".

Actually,giving to the needy is tithe.Unless you want to tell me God himself doesn't know what He's saying.Deut.14:29,26:12
Nowhere in the Bible did God command paying tithe to the 'church'.Tithe was never money,but agricultural produce,Deut.14:22-26.
The practice of bringing such produce to the temple,to be distributed to the Levites who had no inheritance and the needy, was instituted by King Hezekiah of Judah.It wasn't an ordinance of the Law.That practice was what Malachi alluded to,the quote of which you people have grossly taken out of context.

The man you quoted is correct.. Tithing was a man made law born out of the theocracy practiced at the time.. Ask your self.. Why were all the other mosaic laws abolished and not used by Christians but the pastors somehow dug out tithing to satisfy their greed? Are the pastors purely levies? Do they not have inheritance and businesses nowadays? Do not be a zombie Christian.. God has given us brain to think. And you are Roman Catholic in name.. Im sure you sneak from one Pentecostal church to the other....its written all over your posts.. Practical Christian kor
