Is good to give, but not at the expense of ur pocket... If u really want to give to GOD, give it to the needy.. Most pastor are living large at the expense of the members.. They eat 60,feeding, cars n larvish life style.. Remaining 40 is for GOD'S church projects

Please don't get it wrong. I believe there should be 2 offerings: normal church offering and tithe.

Nowadays there are up to 5 offerings in church.

1 Sunday school offering
2 Testimony offering
3 Building levy offering
4 Youth offering
5 Offerings for needy
6 Tithe etc

There are strategies devised to coerse one to give cry cry cry cry cry cry
such as "stand up and raise your offering and being left on the seat while others give.

It makes me feel bad.


Must you mock the church?
nairaland where you have people looking for opportunities to mock God and the church is where you are seeking cancel.

NOTE, the gate of hell can not prevail against the church.

If you are not satisfy with the church leave and stop dragging the name of the lord in the mud.

You don't understand. Shame go catch you small.

Besides it gets worse now due to additionals like

1 Divine favour offering
2 Protection
3 Prosperity
4 Offering for those that appreciate what God did for them in 2021
5 Offering to cross over to a better 2022.

Don't get me wrong. This thread is not meant to bash Christianity as I consider myself one but is there a way it could be reduced for those that want to give more to make transfer.
I usually give my offering for the day dazall. Anything else no concern me. I will just be toying with my phone whilst other offerings go on. There is a reason it's called OFFERING.

It's sad. Its coercion. Its unchristian. We are just not courageous enough. No one should be in churches where these are practised no matter the miracle or financial things we think we are enjoying there. We should show loyalty and love for Gods reputation.
Fruits or qualities that churches show determine if they are acceptable to God or not. This fruits shouldn't be ignored as Christians. In the time of christ, the box for collecting such things are put at an inconspicuous space at the entrance point of say synagogues.
And my friend, in line with being courageous, Christians should come to terms that tithe collecting is unchristian too. It was never part of the Acts of the Apostles and early Christians.

The only way is 'get yeh out from among them and touch unclean things'. These are the people that have made the stomach their God. These are the shepherds feeding on the sheeps.
Look closely at churches that practise such, you will see that they have many other doctrines and practices that cant be found in the bible

What do you do during the call for further offerings: you sit down?

Some will even tell you to wave your offering to God.

You can't be caught waving #50 . Na casting.
Yet there are guidelines in the Bible for giving: don't allow your left hand to know what your right hand is giving.

We are admonished not to behave like Pharisees.

Giving is such a wonderful act and the fulfillment that comes afterwards is even better. What ever, where ever and to whoever you give, just do it joyfully and ensure you are giving something worthy. Trust me heavens will reward you. No matter what humans say.

Ntn rude about it.

Best strategy, get plenty of 100 or 50 naira notes for pocket( whichever you can afford). The get a couple of 1k notes(or even 5) when they say wave your offering, wave the 1k notes, and gently use the other hand to hold the 100naira note. When its time to drop it, drop the 1k notes in ur pocket and the 100naira in the offering box. Easier if they use envelope. Just drop a blank envelope. Its a tested and trusted technique.

Don't constitute a stumbling block if everyone is going out for offering by rows, if you don't have money join them and walk past the offering box, there's no shame in it, you will feel awkward if you are the only left and when the offerors are returning you will be raising your legs for them to pass and constituting a nuisance.
Don't sit, join them and walk past the offering box without dropping anything and no one will even notice
cheesy grin grin You bad ooo Anyway some churches used to give 5 offerings .So what I normally do is to change my money into smaller amount .Rather than put five hundred, I will give N100 five times.If you don't do that, the shame will be too much .Imagine people that will be putting N10 five times will be looking at you as if you are the poorest in the Church when you are sitting down while they are going to the altar to drop their money

Poor man's mentality. Its better I don't give offering than give N5 as offering.
Next year, the least offering I'll give in Church will be N500 naira by God's grace

Hmmmm. Mhennn...

All these Pastors and their subtle means of emptying their gullible followers pockets. These ain't offering to God but extortion form clueless members.
You hit the nail on the head.
Same thing I told my church-going friends.
All these offerings mostly prevalent in pentecostal churches are designed to ensure the pastors extract the maximum money from the followers.
By the time these followers pay their tithes and all these offerings, they will be left with very little to survive on which results in majority of them reaching out to people like me and you for financial assistance.

After following all these styles of offering collection from my pastors and nothing changed in my life for many years and I decided to change my style of giving too. The worse thing is that my church collect three to five offerings every Sunday. I decided not to give offering and tithes for over three years now and since the time that I stopped giving offering and tithes, God have been blessing me heavily. No matter how many times they call for offering na where I dey na there I dey. If they say that everyone should dance around before dropping their offering, i will dance around too without dropping anything. If they gave me two envelopes, the way they gave me the envelopes are the same way that I'm going to drop it back for them.
I believe that I'm cashing out the once that I have sowed in the past.
