Tithe is real but it will only yield good when you pay it to the right person. |

frankmoney: But how many people that pay tithes really understand what it means to give? Some people will bypass needy persons to give tithes in the church. Some people have widows as neighbours. They never bother to reach out to these people. In all, tithes emphasize giving to receive, which is a horrible reason to give. That is why we have politicians stealing billions that they should use to better the lots of the masses and give them as tithes and gifts to pastors. True giving emphasizes giving out of love, without compulsion. James 1:27 tells us about the truest religion. Why is that not what should be more emphasized. 6 Likes |

lonikit:tithe is a basic requirement in the mosaic law which was meant to cater for the Levites (priesthood tribe). The gospel of Jesus Christ which forms the basis of Christianity does not place emphasis on tithes. Rather people should give willingly. Even the apostle Paul emphasized that giving in the church should not be under compulsion, but God loves a cheerful giver. Tithing is clearly a provision of the old covenant, which has become obsolete with the introduction of the new covenant. So the apostle James stressed that the purest form of worship is (not in the payment of tithes) but by looking after widows and orphans. 3 Likes |

eelipumpin: I wnt u to knw that some churches still do sacrifice. regarding the issue of killing, God clearly said it that he hate shedding of blood, its only in some cases that God allow it either by men or by angels or by God himself. civilization is another factor that stoped that. prophets, judges and kings were controlling that tym, but Paul made it clear in new testament that we shud submit the earthly govt and no govt allows that. |

How will they eat, maintain there mansions, service private jets, have investments and service there luxury lifestyle if they preach the truth to you. One thing I "LOVE" the Bible for is that it can't be twisted anyway to favour your plan. 2 Likes |

ipobarecriminals: The part in bold is false. We really should stop this scare mongering way of defrauding gullible people. Dangote is the richest man in Nigeria. He's a Muslim and doesn't pay tithe. I stopped paying tithe and going to church all together since 2010 and my financial position keeps improving year after year. I have also not been admitted for any sickness since then. Tithe is the biggest scam in the world, stop deceiving people to part with their money. 2 Likes |

lonikit:you misunderstood the both quotations, James 1:27 is talking about visiting the orphanages and widow, this simply means feeding the people who are not yet with the spirit of God (born again) the word of God, for them to repent and have a comforter,(holy spirit) and be comforted by God while the Malachi 3:10 ,is talking about giving your tithes and of rings, this simply means giving your body and soul to God and in return, he will feel you with his wisdom and knowledge of his word as blessing, not about money . God is not interested in our money,but our life , no one can obtain the blessing of God with money but by our obedience to his word, that's all. the Church today are just misinterpreting the word of God in the flesh (material things) .the word of God has a spiritual understanding, and you need to have the spirit of God to understand his word,if not, the world will deceive you, God bless you. |

SUPERPACK:Why mention the Pope? The catholic church doesn't emphasize on tithe like protestant churches. Only in recent times, they just announce it for the sake of formality. Its never emphasized. Say what you are sure of. I don't get how those who have never stepped into a Catholic church for one day get to criticize them. 1 Like |

lonikit:I was just asking a question. If you know the answer pls answer, don't ask me another question. Jesus was not specific about the LAW in Matt 5, but he said commandments, which was why I referred you to the book of Mal 4:4. The commandments were given to the Israelites by God and Jesus had to fulfilled them. The issue of Born Again was not in the that commandments. see Matt 5 : 20 - 21 . |

lonikit:Well, maybe in certain churches. In winners to the best of my knowledge, they preach both. Don't forget that there are lazy people disguising as needy. The easiest to fulfil is that of the fatherless, widows etc. Others are hard to support even if you have the money cos people are very proud, lazy and dishonest. |
