Is It A Sin If Churches Use POS To Collect Offerings And Tithes This Period by Malory: 9:42am On Feb 05, 2023
Hello house, considering the lack of cash in this perilous times that banks are not paying people on the counter and the ATM hardly dispense money do you think it is advisable for churches to improvise by using POS to collect tithes and offerings or do you think it is a sin? Your candid opinion is needed.

Businessman must cash out. Why do you think it's called calling? One human being will reason the benefits of church cash out and will be shouting I received a calling. I don't know who really called them.

If people are not paying tithe how then do you think the church can grow? Remember money is needed for the growth of anything.

So you mean there's no genuine church in the whole world?

No. It's also not a sin for the church to give more financial assistance to those who are suffering in these trying times.

Yeah I agree with you but your initial post says church is a business center! You shouldn't have generalized it.

Must church be all about offerings and tithes?


I watched a movie and I'd love Nigerians to see the movie....

It's "THE MESSAGE AND THE MESSENGER"

The church should practice what they preach and be giving to the society, rather than collecting everytime from the poor masses.


We've gone pass many things of the old days and how they operate based on the standard of rulership and we are in democracy days and we need to empower the people through the church and not empower the church through the people.

Most pastors don't even preach anything reasonable other than what you bring is what you get from God.

You seems to know very much about Christianity. I thought you are a Muslim?

Many churches have schools now....They have investments and companies under the church name.

They have to diversify their means of income while using their income to better the lives of their members and also preaching the gospels to them.


The idea behind the offerings was for the church to use and pay the preacher and also to assist people who were dwelling/working in the church during fasting periods or passing from a long distance journey to rest in the church before they continue.

These days, the church is shut down and only opened on Sundays and during activities to collect money.

If you're ever stranded and you find a church to lay your head, you will not be allowed inside.

"Christianity" is a faith it means you accept Yeshua son of Marriamah... Any sensible Muslim knows and accepts teaching of Yeshua,. ISSA or westernized Jesus

Go on and read English version of Jewish Torah, Biblical old testament and Quran and you might see it's all the same story and mythology

No tithe in the first century church, and it grew way better than the gathering of customers you guys call church growth these days.
