You are right, but saying someone not paying tithes will miserable and poor is nothing but a lie Sir... Tithes is not the only key that open door for financial blessings Sir. Thank you.

True!

Tithe is not the only Key.

It is however one of the Tumblers in A Safe which ought to "fall" before that Safe Door can be opened.

Then they shall pay with their blood. Because the did not believe in the name of our aLord Jesus.

You should also ask me why the ritualist have money? Any man who is not a Christian and is rich have already tied his soul to the devil. You are the one that think they don't tithe grin grin . They have a father and have given ther tithe to him which is their soul. You will not understand. It is deep.
Stories for gullible folks. Deep scam indeed!!

None of the apostles in the new testament after the death of Jesus paid tithe.

Someone who doesn't pay tithe (Elon Musk) is richer than you tither and you can't smell how powerless your tithe is. Even Dangote a Muslim is the richest in Nigeria.


If tithe is powerful, the top 10 richest should be tithers.

First and foremost I want to know if you re a Christian. If you re a Christian and you're rich and you're not paying God tithe , then you a thieve and a robber, you will surely pay for it, even after you died. It is deep. I laugh those who says tithing is an Old Testament things.

My question is strictly for christians who believes in paying of tithes.

Do you finish up your debt first or you pay your tithes and keep looking for another way to pay the debts. What's the guidelines for payment of tithes when one is servicing a loan.

I think you should not over flogged the truth... Someone will pay for it even after death coz he didn't pay tithe... Is tithes payment higher than salvation and sanctification... Surprisingly, percentage of people who are actually faithful with tithes are few... Cos most people pay tithe of their earnings, ignoring that of their gift, through the week or month.. Even if someone gift u material things aren't u going to pay the tithes as some preachers says.....

So no need to pay tithe to pastors? Just give it to the widows, poor and needy.

The question remains why is it that Elon Musk and co who don't pay tithes to pastors are richer than those who pay tithes to pastors?

..I don't know Elon musk's personal life....today they showed joe Biden eating communion in a church.. who knows what all these people do in their personal life...

If you don't feel like giving to the development of your church...is not by force....u can sacrificially give in other ways....my own principle is simple...whateva u give....let it be cheerful and commensurate with what you earn....if you eat like an elephant your sh!t to contribute to the soil will be big...and if you are an ant...ur sh!t go small

If you earn 1milliom permonth...there's nothing sacrificial about giving 200 naira per month...even Jesus talked about the woman who gave the widow's mite...and said she gave more than those who brought only peanut out of plenty...

christ says he should pay his tithe. And Christ didn't say he should use his tithe to pay debt.

Lastly the bible you quote is about court case. Learning to settle out of court. it has nothing to do with not paying tithe.

Matthew 5:25 (NLT)
25 “When you are on the way to court with your adversary, settle your differences quickly. Otherwise, your accuser may hand you over to the judge, who will hand you over to an officer, and you will be thrown into prison

The topic is about tithe, not cheerful giving. Its no secret that top billionaires are into charity which would be under cheerful giving .

Rephrasing question. So why are those who are giving to charity among the richest on earth? Is it not an empirical proof that charity is more powerful than tithing?

Oga all giving under new testament must be some cheerfully not out of compulsion...God no vex of you no pay give....God no dey spend your money...

I'm surprised as how you didn't get in the insight of 'when you're on your way to the court'. undecided

Isn't that supposed to mean that you should settle whatever would lead you to court? undecided

Ask the apostles why they didn't pay tithe. Then ask yourself why you are not making animal sacrifices to God.

Why do you even have debt(s) if you have been tithing? Where then is the promise of tithing if actually tithing is truth. You should be lending to nations and not in debts.

Bottom line, tithing has nothing to do with making anyone rich. Your pastors have lied to you for too long since you've been tithing, have you or experienced the promises of tithing? The economics of making money and being out of debts has nothing in common with tithing.

Selah!!!
