Having read so many christian denominational books and listening to preachings, i found out that Most pentecostal or modern day churches rarely preach from the words of Jesus but Paul.
Of which there are many things Christ taught that has been neglected by these christians.. In the whole life of Jesus, he was an example of Love and teaches love, in Mt 25:31-46 Jesus gave a guide of how he will Judge on the last day which simply is based of LOVE FOR ONE ANOTHER..

but according to the revised Nigerian Paul teaching, it is all by grace and no need for charity works or taking it important for salvation.
This Nigerian pastors theology is even against the teaching of Paul in 1Cor13:13 when he said ...the greatest of These is LOVE..

Tithe appeared just once in the bible in the old testament book of malachi, but our pastors preaches this with so many treats because it involves money. I once asked a pastor why do you tell us more about Tithe but don't talk about the other old testaments laws and commandment, he told me if i am moved by the spirit, i will understand better that tithe to the Man of God is very important.. i just laugh..

If we can follow the life of Jesus and his teachings, i am sure this world will be better place for everyone to live.. though it is hard for people to accept the Gospel truth of Jesus for even our pastors will not want to share their property to the poor..

for example, if a politician wants to goto a church, the pastor welcomes the fat envelope as the man of God, but in the cases of Jesus and Nicodemus, Jesus fearlessly told him to sell off his property and give the money to the poor..

it is time we start educating our so called money conscious pastors to preach Charity to help make Nigeria a better place for us all according to the teaching and life of Jesus with whom we call our selves CHRISTIANS and stop using some portions of the old testaments about wealth accompanied with some writings of Paul to brainwash people for their hard earn cash..

The early Christians was known for charity. The pillar of Christians' success then was charity. History books told us that the pegans was all amazed that these people called Christians are helping each other. The Apostles and disciples of Christ all practiced charity. But todays Christianity is totally different that sometimes I ask myself are we still practicing the same Christianity the early Christians practiced.

I guess u were d one dat called st Paul and it was ur ministry dat ensure d gospel spread to gentiles like Nigeria.
All these religious folks dat hate d gospel according to paul with passion.
The bible is complete no subtraction and no addition. Whether d gospel according to Paul or any other.
Grace is grace.
I wonder why some people feel holier dan God who authored d institution of grace

No one is forming holy here.. let us take the truth and make the world a better place. It will do ur more good to give to the poor than abandon them in the cover of grace. even St. Paul tells us the greatest of all is LOVE..(which is Charity)..

Paul didn't preach Offerings and tithe so i dnt know where u are heading to.
Wen u understand grace u will find it easy to love.
Love is wen u look at someone's wickedness to u and yet u choose to help him. Grace is "u dnt deserve it but u will get it" so u can see d relationship.
If u mean grace to sin No Dat wasnt paul preached rather he preached grace to come out of sin and let d Holy spirit take over u.
D word of God d way it is is the truth in totality. No addition and no subtraction

How many have u listened to and wat exactly did u hear dem preach. Can u quote one

Get it right! There was no teaching of Paul thus the argument does not arise Between Christ And Paul Teachings. All of Paul's teaching was Christ and the Finished work of the Cross.

Hmmm.... this is really something.

So my thread concerning this very subject is not a first even in Nairaland sef?

To God be the glory that not everyone is spiritually blind and unable to see the glaring truth and difference between the Words of Jesus and that of Paul.

Though belatedly, I endorse this thread.
