Olatara:oh, I'm so sorry, seems I took life abit serious that I forgot there's sarcasm But that's just the fact, how do you give someone a tithe of 10k out of 100k, when def. the remaining 90k is exactly your total expenses in a month. I no even add fuel money and enjoyment money. last last everything go be around 500naira for tithe. If person enter debt or did not save and live comfortable na still the same church dem go castigate person and some pastors go still use the matter preach. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Lapajude01: Then you need to read the next verses before and after that, and not pick the only verse that you think suite your arguement. |

Lapajude01: Neh 13 "10 I also found out that the portions of the Levites had not been given to them, so that the Levites and the singers, who did the work, had fled each to his field. 11 so I confronted the officials and said, why is the house of God forsaken?” And I gathered them together and set them in their stations. 12 Then all Judah brought the tithe of the grain, wine, and oil into the storehouses. 13 And iI appointed as treasurers over the storehouses Shelemiah the priest, Zadok the scribe, and Pedaheh of the Levites, and as their assistant Hanan the son of Zaccur, son of Mattaniah, for they were considered reliable, and their duty was to distribute to their brothers" Prov 3 "9 Honor the Lord with your possessions, And with the first fruits of all your increase; 10 So your barns will be filled with plenty, And your vats will overflow with new wine." Leviticus 27:30 says, “A tithe of everything from the land, whether grain from the soil or fruit from the trees, belongs to the Lord: it is holy to the Lord.” These gifts were a reminder that everything belonged to God and a portion was given back to God to thank him for what they had received. “Tithing” is not mentioned by name in the New Testament. If you are wondering, “Where does it say to tithe in the Bible,” In the book of Matthew Jesus was sharing with a crowd and condemned the teachers of the law for their hypocrisy. They worked hard to follow every law to the letter, but paid no attention to their heart. Jesus says, “Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You give a tenth of your spices–mint, dill and cumin. But you have neglected the more important matters of the law-justice, mercy and faithfulness. You should have practiced the latter, without neglecting the former.” Jesus was not discouraging the practice of giving. He was reminding religious leaders that giving was about more than just money. Giving to God was about a person’s heart. It was one of the many ways a person could offer their lives and dedicate themselves to God. As the apostle Paul planted churches around the world, he spoke on the subject of giving. His encouragements on giving moved beyond the “tithe” (or 10%) giving. In fact, there are three pieces to New Testament giving. Giving generously, consistently, and joyfully. As Paul encouraged the church in the city of Corinth, he shared how generous the Macedonian churches were giving. He says, “For I testify that they gave as much as they were able, and even beyond their ability” (2 Cor. 8:3). He then follows up his encouragements by saying, “Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously”(2 Cor. 9:6). Instead of prescribing a certain amount or percent, the New Testament churches were simply encouraged to give generously. For those wondering, “Where does it say to tithe in the Bible”, you may not find a prescription to “tithe” in the New Testament, but you will find multiple encouragements to “give generously”. in summary, we are to give and doing so generously not tithing. |

Ochelyko1: The underlined! Caring about people is part of what Jesus meant when he said "you must love your neighbour as yourself" {Mark 12:31} but when we feel there's no need to reason along with what others believe of course that's exactly the same way they will feel towards us! Matthew 7:12 So true Christians takes special interest in the people living in their neighbourhood, we strive to reach them by all means just as our heavenly father extended His loving hands towards us in that while we're yet sinners Christ died in our behalf {Romans 5:8} so if you truly want to exercise faith in Christ Jesus your must exert yourself vigorously to reach out to your neighbours that's the command Jesus gave us. Saying you don't care is not good enough from Jesus' standpoint! Mark 7:7 God bless you as you make the needed adjustment and may you have PEACE! |

MaxInDHouse: Am sure you don't understand the word you underline. Am not saying I don't care for people. I care for them especially those in the house hold of Faith. But I don't care about other people "RELIGION" Jesus Christ was hated by the scribe and Pharisee because He doesn't care about their religion. As long as the religion is not connected to God Almighty. Same with me, I don't care about any other religion bcus I know they are not connected to God Almighty. Reasons Jesus Christ said he is the Truth, the way, and life and that no one can come to the Father except through Him. Jesus is the only way to the Father and as such who ever that is practicing religion outside Christ is already on the wrong way. Hope u get it now? |

Ochelyko1: Do you go (uninvited) to unbelievers in your neighbourhood to share what you have (faith in Christ) with them? That's what i meant by CARING for them not you joining them in their religion! |
