Pentecost tax isn't monetary and I believe we should all know these things.

Then what is it?

Speak for yourself, I wouldn’t expect a village minded person like you to operate on the intellectual capacity of The Vice President.

Which intellectual capacity are you talking about if I may ask you?

emmyileri:

You are misinterpreting the scripture. That scripture is laying emphasis on holy and godly living after we have been made righteous by the sacrificial work of christ. Titus 3:5 he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He Saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal By The Holy Spirit,

I told you I am not going to argue with you , they are two types of Christian , the historical Christian and the encounter Christian, I am an encounter Christian .

Read and digest the statements. The third tax which is civic, or pentecostal tax is not paid to the government but inform of social responsibility to their community.

like seriously

ThierryJay:


Tax is an obligation to the society. He is simply saying preachers who are successful have the obligation to tell the stories of their journey to the public so they can be motivated!

I understood what he meant, but he is also passing a covered message with that statement.

Alright so CHURCH get ready. You soon gonna be paying Pentecost Tax to the govt. developed by a Pastor�

Not really, you are a Christian who is not ready to learn simple. I rest my case

Depends on your perspective. From mine, he's not fighting Christianity, he's fighting FOR society. Jesus paid tax in the Bible so why do you think Osibanjo is wrong in this case?

duro4chang:
I do not understand what he meant.

Same here

Tess24:

udomma1005:

Churches don't pay tax but they love to milk their member with tithes and offerings.

Give what belongs to caesar to caesar and to GOD what is GOD's

How can someone doing philanthropist for hi or her community pay tax for such

Please stop this shout about intellectual.capacity.hoe much intellect has Jacob got before God prosper Laban because of his presence in Labans household.tbis vp is overrated

TOPCRUISE:
Is only osibanjo that can say this. All the jet buying pastors will keep quiet. If El Rufai or any mallam or alhaji say this, there will be serious protest by all the pastors in the churches. And church congregation will be commanded by the pastors to pray against their decision

only an illiterate and a daft Pastor will protest about this. what you should be asking is what is a pentecostal tax? a simple explanation of it is that it is a duty by a clergy man to write about his journey in christianity so as to encourage other who only see challenges. take for example, Oyedepo who started in one room with 3 people or Apostle Suleman who have been accused times without number of amoral actions. writing about these challenges will surely encourage those who are in such situations right now. we can also say Christ paid a sin tax for us. kapish!

If he said so at all ba... I say nothing cos I don't understand anything in all the grammars

Must you insult before you make your point? You are rude! Learn to show politeness. Being rude says many things about you.

Go and read again.. Pentecostal tax is actually his own coinage for what he came to do.. Book presentation on missionary works of Pastor Kumuyi

what financial profit does a preacher make in winning souls

Mind you most of these preaching is not for you to attend their Church directly

The tax Jesus paid was an illustration that financial profits generated need tax paid to government

This was why he asked Peter to go to the river embark on fishing and pay tax form it

Fishes collected is profit

Themandator:

you didn't answer his question because Muslims do jihad which tax should they pay

Christian's already construct roads, build health centres, schools etc that helps government without Muslims contributing anything

emmyileri:

I don't get you, even Jesus paid tax and he preached tax payments... Mark 12:15-17 to 27AMP:Should we pay [them] or should we not pay [them]? But knowing their hypocrisy, He asked them, Why do you put Me to the test? Bring Me a coin (a denarius), so I may see it.

16

AMP:And they brought [Him one]. Then He asked them, Whose image (picture) is this? And whose superscription (title)? They said to Him, Caesar’s.

17

AMP:Jesus said to them, Pay to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s and to God the things that are God’s. And they stood marveling and greatly amazed at Him

Try and have sense when Jesus was asked the tax question he said whose image is on the currency and he concluded same government should be paid tax

The argument is not wether tax should be paid the question is where should it come from

Their are pastors that work in civil service and they pay tax from their work

However you can't pay tax for preaching because it's not a profitable venture

Many preachers preach without directly the converts to their own church

This was way to illustrate where tax payment should come from Jesus told Peter to go hunt fish in the river and pay tax from it

They obviously had a committee of disciples which Judas was treasuer yet he never said Peter should go collect money from judas

SaiOsinbajo:


Read again with a free mind and you will notice the man smiling as he said "Pentecost tax". No be everything we must take serious

Do you mean he was joking? If he was, that was an expensive joke. Here people are now giving different interpretation to what he said.
