Idi-Amin:

I was invited on Sunday to a church by a cousin. After the watered down sermon,

pastor: I want everybody to sow a 'special anointing seed'. I was like 'is there an anointing that is ordinary?'

Another one is 'financial breakthrough seed'. My own sister has has been sowing this financial breakthrough seed every month for at least 5 years and she still has no breakthrough, and she has the guts to come ask me for money that she is broke. I just told her no, wait for your breakthrough. I asked her to stop giving away her money to pastor and that its a waste of money and will get her nowhere . But for where!
she will start quoting bible: 'do not be weary in well doing for you shall reap in perfect time'
Ok then, go wait for your perfect time.

Do you guys know of any other 'seeds' and 'offerings'. it seems they just make them up as they go along

LWKMD,

ANYWAY, I happen to know a lot of "SEED" and "OFFERINGS" name:

"Anointing breaks the Yoke" Seed Offerings

"273" Seed offerings: 2 is the number of agreement, 7 is the number of perfection or completion, God will perfect everything about you when you sow this seed, 3 is the number of Resurrection etc, God will Resurrect you finances. This kind of numeric connection seed can change depending on what is being connected with.

"Solomon" Seed of 1000 USD. Richest man's seed

"Firstborn" seed offerings for firstborn curse breaking.

"Covenant Seed" When you are in covenant with the man of God, Whatever God does to the man of God, same thing flows into your life. If people give the man of God car(s), people MUST give you car also.

I will add more when it comes to my mind, too much "SEED" offerings. But I heard Jesus say, THE SEED IS THE WORD OF GOD.

Idi-Amin:

Hahaha, I know that one. if you they watch TBN or God channel when they do their begpraise-a-thon and they have these businessmen raising money you will hear something like: 'Psalm 8, verse 10 says God will enlarge your coast and multiply you more and more - sow a seed of 810 dollars if you want this promise to materialise in your life!
Because it's psalm 8 verse 10, automatically they join the numbers. why not 8 dollars & 10 cents?

Idi-Amin:

And of course Paula White's 'first fruit' offering which basically states: Sow the first fruit to God, and January represent the 1st month, and your salary in January represents your first fruit, therefore sow your entire January salary to God as a 'first fruit' offering, so that God will bless the rest of the year!
haba, doesn't she except that people have rents, mortgages and bills to pay in January as well? or she just does not care? And people still fall for thse scams

Azibalua:

What do you think jesus was doing when he observed the widow give all she has, and did not tell her to take it back, or what do you think the prophet eas doing when he allowed the widow of zarephath to prepare all she had and adtill feed him after she had told him it was all she had left, how come he did not tell her not to bother giving him to eat?

Our offerings are all based on a principle, not on our feelings

Stop discussing church issue while you don't attend one. If you think you no more then you're a complete fool.
