paying for a comedy show or entertainment makes absolute sense since the services offered by businesses that provide them don't come for free.

God never asked any of you to pay Him a dime.He instructed you to give to those who do not have and in turn He who owns it all will give back to you. This man is right not to give to a pastor who has more than he does. He is wise for learning the Truth of God in this.

Who here will continue to give to a brother who uses the money to drink alcohol or take drugs or pay prostitutes instead of feeding him or herself? Will any of you judgemental theists continue to give because the bible says to give. Will you make the excuse that God says you should continue to give and leave the drunk, druggie etc to hurt themselves? Or will you be a responsible person and not reinforce the bad behaviour? Im sure most will choose the latter. Im sure just like that our Father in heaven would like us to speak up in church when things go on instead of shutting up about it and waiting on him to fix things. Let's speak up and stop reinforcing bad behaviour. That is another way to show love.

I dont think the bible tells us to respect opportunists in the name "Men of God". What does it even take to be called a man of God these days? These people are not beyond correction my dear. Let's correct them when we need to.

Wow! Impressive! clap for yourself..
it's like the church building was built free, the equipment used in the church are free, the nice environment or chilling A/C is free abi? or was the church service held on the mount or some plain grass field? Now you can see that the money is for the running of the church and if he/she doesn't give, someone else will.

Next time, ask the man with Toyota if he has ever given to the poor in his neighbourhood. Even you, shebi you pass by the poor in your neighborhood too, have you been benevolent enough to them?
But God never told anyone of you to build Him a church or any other structure. undecided
He told you not to use His Name in vain, like you do when you pretend the house belongs to Him and the utility bills you pay are also on His Behalf. undecided

His instructions where clear that you give only to those who are least amongst you and certainly not to pastors and preachers.

And as per your question there, are you suggesting that not doing what God commanded (in the case of my poor neighbor) is reason why I should instead do that which God never commanded(give money to church businesses/kingdom of men run by pastors)? undecided

In fact Jesus Christ was clear on what you should give...not that those are the only ways to give.

1. FEED MY SHEEP
*when they are hungry, you give them food to eat
* when they are thirsty, you give them something to drink

2. TAKE CARE OF MY SHEEP
* when they are naked, give them clothing
* when they are homeless, welcome them into your home
* when they are sick, care for them
* when they are in prison, visit them


Now, the one who left the note is right. Jesus Christ said to give to those who have less than you do, and this pastor seems to have a lot more than he does. In fact, the young ma.

Jesus Christ Himself was disrespected and no judgement befell those who were involved. undecided

Ignorance!
They are not paying to God. He instructed them to share what they have among themselves. The needy are in the Church too

Hmmmm... Let me help you a little...
If you've studied your Bible you will know that from the old testament, the Lord gave a description of how the temple should be built during Moses's time. Then we have the temple built by Solomon which God was happy with (All the materials for building these temples were free will offering from people nobody was forced)
This Solomon temple remained even till the time of Jesus, there was no need to build another because there can only be one High priest and one Holy of Holies so they cannot have 2 temples. But after Christ's death and the temple veil was torn thereby making it possible to have multiple buildings for Worship. (Hope you understand why building multiple place of worship was not possible until after the Death of Christ) and after then, we saw the apostles meeting and having services in various places unlike before where everyone had to go the only temple for worship.

With regards giving.. you're not giving to the pastor, you're giving to God and let me tell you that God is interested in your giving. Jesus had to commend the widow who gave all she had into the temple (Mark 12:41-44).
Also Tithe is not just a old testament practice because Christ never condemned it. In fact, it recorded as a good work towards the Lord(Luke 18:10-14).

Read James 1:27. Pure Religion is about giving and helping the poor which the churches do. Churches go on outreach to interior villages, countries and society where you cannot go to preach the gospel, help them, establish schools and many more. I hope you see that the money you give is also a way to support those in less privileged society. It's through this giving that made missionaries bring education and civilization to Nigeria and we too are doing thesame to other nations
