It's meant for pastors. U know early Christians paid tithe abi? Shebi u read in acts were paul, peter and James paid tithes or even asked people to? Shebi u read were Jesus paid tithes?
U are a true Christian

Ayo081:
Even Jesus won't be happy if you drop that tithe

Why do you assume Jesus Christ won't be happy if you drop that tithe?

Giving tithe and offering doesn't stop you from helping people in need .... There's no competition between both

Baawaa:
Bring all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be food in My house, (Mal 3:10a).If my spirit man give them money I will give them not my tithes

Go and read Deuteronomy 26 : 12-13.
You can also give your tithes to Motherless, strangers, needy and orphans. Tithes is not only meant to be paid in church.
Read your Bible well.

What would Jesus do?

He would give it to the needy

Is it right to give your school fees, house rent to a bagger?

Yes it is meant for daddy GO and his family.�

You paying tithes does not stop you from helping the needy. You people should stop using this as excuse. It's all about your heart. There are proud who don't pay tithe and yet they don't give to the poor, there are also those who pay their tithes and still give to the poor. Which ever you are it's all in your heart. Person wey go give go give and person wey know go give no go still give. Tithe no be excuse.

The tithe isn't meant for the poor? What do you mean by that?

If you give the needy that tithe/offering, will it make him whole?

Saintinoo:

It's unbelievable what so-called Christians believe!

macaranta:
I'd yiu give the needy that tithe/offering, will it make him whole?

You would have obeyed Jesus Christ though. Isn't that the main point of our being Christians?

Even Jesus won't be happy if you don't give to the needy.

My bad

Tell us guys

You are arguing with the ten percent you want to give God but never ask yourself about the Ninety percent with you..

I have never seen anyone who gave what idols requested as gift to the poor and tell it to the native doctor that you were trying to show empathy..

Grace just dey make us misbehave anyhow..

You forgot to quote proverb 28 vs 27 and also to reiterate that when you give to the poor you lend to God.

Give unto the house of God so that they shall be meat in my house. The meat in the house are for who?

Tithe money is meant to provide for the poor in the house but the reverse is the case.

They that give to the poor never lack.

PROPHETmichael:


Scripture teaches three types of giving namely:-

1. Offering
2. Tithes giving
3. Alms giving

The brother is on the right track and even Jesus said, "the poor you will always have with you".

Pastors brainwashed must take the tithe to church for pastor and would rather blow in tongue till the sick dies.

Religion is a scam

What does Deuteronomy 14: 22-29 say about tithe

Deuteronomy 26: 12- 14 says it all.
You can give your tithes to the Needy, Strangers, widows, Motherless.
It's not only the church you give tithe to.

Pastors will not allow their congregation know this part of the Bible.
Na only Malachi they will quote.

Jesus Christ did not call you to doing things as the idol worshippers do it. He called you to do as He said. So answer the question to reveal whether it is Jesus Christ you serve or your Pastors and Mogs.

You Know Nothing!

If you can show us one scripture where Jesus gave money to a beggar, I will transfer N10k to you.

Jesus gave His money to the poor.

There is a very big difference.

Deuteronomy 30 vs 15 - 20 also tells us that God's Tithing and offering laws were only given by God to the people people Israel.

Any Gentile living according to those Laws believes in his heart that God is a fool.

Prenonjebose:

Give them that tithe money. Then, go home and get another 10% from the balance and give as tithe. No excuse for failing to do one because of the other.

What if you don't have much to sustain you after the removal of tithe (which you now have the option of either giving to the needy or the Church)?

Jesus Christ said...If your neighbor ask you for something you have in your hands, don't tell him , "come back tomorrow", instead give him what he asked for.- Matthew 5 vs 42. The same command is found in Proverbs 3 vs 28

Meant for what pls!

No pastor in Nigeria has gathered church money to buy a Rolls Royce.

It's always a gift from someone who hit a contract in Billions

Personally I don't support accepting such a gift.

Neither do I support Daddy Freeze.

He twists things a lot to maintain relevance. Also he is too cowardly to speak a word against Islamic terrorism against Christians.

He is a believer in himself, not In Christ

ILoveDemMANNA:
I will give them the tithe and much more straight off.

Meanwhile.....

Tithe is just 10 percent of 100 God has blessed you with. If you give God 10percent, you still have 90 percentage to what ever you want, let me ask, is too much?

Analyst7:

yea your tithe is not for the poor but for your wealthy Daddy G.O to fuel and service his private Jet.

Baawaa:
Bring all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be food in My house, (Mal 3:10a).If my spirit man give them money I will give them not my tithes

That their may be food in my house. Did you know that, that food was meant to be share to the needy and poor? It was not going to be eaten by Jehovah.

Analyst7:

Only a fool would give money to the poor and the sick.

The Bile says they will always be with us. Most of them are sinners and are already hellbound.

For me and my family we will give instead to my pastor so I can make Heaven and sit and rule at the right hand of my Jesus eternally.

Analyst7:

i beg to disagree. Your tithe is actually meant for the orphans, widows, the pastor and your self. This is what the bible says. Deut 14:22-27

God told us to take care of the sick first, he is to first help the sick.

One thing I ALWAYS struggle to understand is why is it the smallest amount unusually the hardest to part with.
Tithe is 10%.
So, if you earn 100k; tithe is 10k... you are left with 90k. Why is it difficult to take from the 90k and help the needy, it's the 10k we want to do calculations on.

I just don't get it.

Anyway sha, it is people that give 100 naira, 200 naira as offering, that will feel the pastor is using their money to buy private jets... those who give real good money, don't even bother.
