The Tithing Movement just took a massive hit!

bolamp:


It's obvious you are one of those that lead people astray. Are you even sure you read the verse you quoted properly??

Perceptor:
My worry about this issue is the replies frm the men of God. They havent been able to explain anythin from the Word of God viewpoint. The truth is that the love God has for us is far beyound tithe and offering or anything we think we do to win God's favor. The greatest blessing or gift from God to mankind is that of salvation through Jesus Christ but did u get this gift by paying tithe or offering? No. We received d gift wen we were still sinners. If God so loved us wen were still sinners that he gave us such a wonderful gift, why then wuld u think he will be angry wt u now if u dont pay tithe or offering. Paying tithe or offering is not the issue, the issue is God loves us and he wants us to know him, come to him and have an intimate relationship wt him THEN everythin u do will be done genuily frm your heart towards God.

When you tell a child that if he sits down on a particular chair, that he would be severely punished. If the child eventually decides to keep standing, would you actually argue that the child had a choice?...

I'll use a more succinct analogy; if I point a gun at your head and ask you to hand over your wallet, if I am to go by your own definition of 'choice', do you agree with me that it's a matter of choice for you to hand over the wallet or not?

We really ought to define and understand the true meaning of the word 'choice'. Forcing a person to do something doesnt only entail using physical force. Telling a person (a believer under you) that he would incur God's wrath and attract spiritual curses if he doesn't hand over his belongings, my friend, that is 'force', especially when you consider that it's even unscriptural.

felifeli:
Lala you done give tithe or you done take chop snake suya? ��

Abeg, leave Lala alone! He had not received November salary and his wife and side chick have started hassling him for money for Xmas shopping

asuustrike2009:

Correct. He is already achieving it through this tithe saga and many are falling for it badly.

subcbouy:
What exactly did he say? You are part of the church problem. Give whole transcript message, not just sentence. Or you refer people to where they can listen to the message. Shalom

Ken4Christ:


Was John the Baptist a criminal before he was executed? Where the Apostles criminals before their executions?

kpolli:


Oh please can you quote it or explain it better? Please let's not throw insults just fair discussions....

Dainikel:

The point is firstly there is a setting aside of 10% percent of your yield after every month.(Its a commandment). Thereafter you pray to God to give direction on how He has chosen for you to pay the tithe.
What I am against is non-acknowledgement of the command from God on the setting aside certain percent.

Billyonaire:

Yes, Peter coined the word Christianity at Pentioch.
Read your Bible, dear zombie.

generationz:

Would you kindly state the chapter and verse where this was stated?

teflonjake:



You are the John the Baptist, neither are you the apostles....

My question is what did you do to warrant such level of attempts to life?

UbanmeUdie:




Nothing is compulsory in this life.

Even impregnating one's wife is not compulsory.


God has given us a free will or the power of choice. Yet, he admonishes us to choose rightly.

Deuteronomy 30:19 says; "I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live".

Tithing is not compulsory but it works wonders for everyone who genuinely and faithfully engages in it.


The irony of this tithing drama is that, those who are paying tithes from millions and in millions will continue to give to God heartily and Joyfully, but the ones paying tithes of 10naira, 100naira and 1000 naira are the ones screaming tithing is a scam.

No pastor has ever placed a gun on anybody's head to demand tithe.



Happy Sunday folks!

Ken4Christ:


Well the attack started after I suspended one of my leaders for gross sexual immorality. I suspect it's coming from there. God revealed to me another possible source I cannot disclose online.

felifeli:
" There is nowhere in the Bible where it is written that tithing and giving offering is compulsory .But if you want to trust God with your finances you should even strive to do more than the tithe "

This was a part of the message of the G.O of MFM Ministries this morning at the international headquarters .

My own words:
So, what do you say scoffers? If you like chop nkwobi and Isi ewu and gulder with your money, if you like give it to your church . The choice is your. God no get address and no bank account.

plessis:
Why is nobody talking about salvation again?....

bolamp:


Because you asked kindly, I will oblige with a quick summary.
The verse you quoted when you start reading from verse 9 basically is about a story given by Christ were he compared a biblical pharisee with an ordinary tax-farmer where the pharisee bragged to God about all the lawful things he did which included tithing wheras the tax farmer acknowledged that he was a sinner.
In the end God rebuked the pharisee and accepted the tax-farmer.
This shows that our heart towards the things of God is what he looks at.

..wot can I by u for Christmas?

So how does that negate what Jesus said about Himself, I noticed you talked around what I quoted but never talked about it so please, can you explain what Jesus meant by "He fasts twice in the week, gives tithes of all He possesses"....

Don't get me wrong, I know pastors are wrong for ever claiming one will go to hell if one doesn't tithe. But please no man should ever lay claim that Jesus came to die so we won't tithe anymore. No where in the Bible is it written that Jesus came to die for us to stop tithing. He died to save us, tithing is personal between man and God and a lot of pastors sin by coming between that commitment.

I personally advice one to change church if you don't like how your pastor behaves, don't remix the word of God.

Everyone strives to be like Jesus, if Jesus can tithe; so can I.... It's simple, if you don't want to tithe; don't! It's your personal decision, you're not going to hell for not tithing....

I have personally seen what tithing can do in a church, I have seen how much it takes to maintain a church so I know my tithe goes a long way. If you see your pastor overdoing things, switch...

Thanks brother

An2elect2:
Hehehehe Christians shouldn't tithe at all.

"Tithing isnt compulsory" is like saying "The law isn't compulsory" Law is law for a reason. If you are under a law you must abide by it and in some cases to the letter. There is no "if you like" with the law. You break it you face punishment. That's why Christ came to free us from not only the punishment but also from the demands of the law.

Before now. The truth was: CHRISTIANS ARE NOT TO TITHE BUT GIVE WHATEVER THEY ARE WILLING TO GIVE

Lying ministers shouted the exact opposite of the truth from their pulpits: TITHING IS COMPULSORY AND OFFENDERS ARE INCURRING GOD'S WRATH

Then a man came to challenge them with the bible. He won a lot of people over

Proud lying ministers couldnt take it and got worse in preaching the opposite of the truth. They were no longer convincing.

So shy lying ministers (the devil's second try to keep people enslaved) like this come forward for the first time ever(what have they been doing since?) to "challenge" the obvious lie with subtle lie or is it a levelling ground lie saying: TITHING IS NOT COMPULSORY.

Who is the devil trying to swindle with this lie? When did a law become not compulsory?

Christians shouldn't tithe we have been freed from the law.

AlvoSitwil:


some even believe that Jesus came to abolish the laws... see https://www.nairaland.com/4212971/tithing-not-part-christianity-jesus
