"You don't only tithe on your income ... you tithe also on the benevolences that come your way!" Bishop Oyedepo

"... Prayer and fasting can't avert the curse of poverty! ...Can I say this to you? ... 'There is no point in sowing any seed .. if you are not a tither!' Because the harvest will still be vulnerable to the devourer! .. " Bishop Oyedepo

"Until you re-position your life in truth, regarding tithing .. your prayer and fasting has just began!."Prayer and fasting ... will never open the Heaven! ... And prayer and fasting can't stop the devourer of your financial resources! " Bishop Oyedepo

This apostle of prosperity is showing you a mystery, right now!" Bishop Oyedepo @WinnersChapelNL shocked

"Whether you are a high priest or a low priest ... whether you are a founder or a fellower ..... If you are not a tither .. you live perpetually under a closed Heaven! " Bishop Oyedepo @WinnersChapelNL. " Bishop Oyedepo

"Things will remain tighter until you become a tither! ... Tithe belongs to GOD!" Bishop Abioye

"Things will remain tighter until you become a tither ... things will remain tighter until you become a tither! ... " Bishop Abioye

See as people don dey use 'prayer and fasting' do threat.

When He had been baptized, Jesus came up immediately from the water; and behold, the heavens were opened to Him, and He saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting upon Him. Matt 3:16 Nkjv

People say things they cannot establish in the word of God and that the word of God didn't say. Where is it found in the word of God that one is under closed heaven if he/she didn't tithe?. I didn't see Jesus tithe and yet, heavenS (Not even one heaven, plural) were opened to him.

Read Malachi 3:10. Tithing was mandatory for the Levites (who sacrificed humans for Jewish-Christian God). Not for others.
The tithe was in grains, oils and animals, not money.
The tithe was to be burned as a holocaust for the Jewish-Christian god (why not burn the shepherds crooks money?)
As if that were not enough, for Christians, the New Testament, with the death of Jesus, declared over any kind of sacrifice or offering. As Christians, the last offering or sacrifice was the death of Jesus.
As I see Oyedepo is not Christian, or just too stupid.

Is Tithing Biblical?
Is tithing Biblical? Sure, if you happen to be a non-Christian Jew who is still erroneously living under Old Testament law**. But tithing is not Biblical for Christians.
As shocking as this may sound, tithing is a literal fraud (mostly unintentional) that has been perpetrated for many years upon most of Christianity in general. Christians have been literally robbed by people that are so deceived in this area that they think it is God’s will and mandate for them to do so. Very few modern tithe teachers realize that they have no rights whatsoever to exact a tithe from Christians. And very few are open to a warning on the subject. Many have become so entangled in “needing” this money, among other things, to pay massive building debts (debts they had no Biblical right to incur in the first place).
Tithing is strictly for the non-Christian Jew and many Jewish scholars will gladly tell you this. Jewish people who have become Christians (JudeoChristians or Messianic Jews) are actually free fromthe tithe and from all Old Testament ceremonial law although some of them may not realize this. While the moral law and much of the civil law remains (such as in ethical standards), Christians are not under the ceremonial law of the Old Testament. According to Galatians 3, those who tryand keep any part of the ceremonial law must keep the whole law. It is a vain and futile thing to attempt.
In brief, tithing is never once taught in the New Testament, which is the blueprint for the Church and for Christian living. Some argue that Jesus upheld tithing in the New Testament. But what they fail to recognize is when Jesus told various men in the New Testament that they should not neglect the tithe is because those men were Jews, not Christians and Jesus had not yet died and rose from the dead redeeming us in general from ceremonial Jewish law. Malachi 3:8-12 is widely used as a hammer by church authoritarians who are determined to fundtheir grand ambitions, but these Old Testament verses were written specifically to Israel not to Christians.
8 "Will a man rob God? Yet you are robbing Me! Butyou say, 'How have we robbed You?' In ( tithes and offerings. 9 "You are cursed with a curse, for you are robbing Me, the whole nation of you! 10 "Bringthe whole tithe into the storehouse, so that there may be food in My house, and test Me now in this,"says the LORD of hosts, "if I will not open for you the windows of heaven and pour out for you a blessing until it overflows. 11 "Then I will rebuke the devourer for you, so that it will not destroy the fruits of the ground; nor will your vine in the field cast its grapes," says the LORD of hosts. 12 "All the nations will call you blessed, for you shall be a delightful land," says the LORD of hosts. Malachi 3:8-12 NASB
There are very few Christens who are unfamiliar with the ungodly misapplied pounding of the above verses into their heads. Many unbelievers are also quite familiar with these verses from Malachi as well, often more familiar than any other verses in the Bible. That should tell you something! The tithing error is big business. This is what funds lunatic false teachers in the pulpit. We as Christians are commanded to not give undercompulsion but rather as cheerful givers. But here’s the thing: It is absolutely IMPOSSIBLE to keep the Bible’s command to not give under compulsion while believing that we owe a compulsory tax of 10% of our income to some charlatan to spend any way that he wants.
Tithing is a system of policed and enforced “giving”, which is not voluntary giving at all but an involuntarily taxation. This is not remotely close to cheerful givers commanded to not give “under compulsion” as the Bible clearly teaches in 2Cor 9:7. “Each one must do just as he has purposed in his heart, not grudgingly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver .” 2Cor 9:7 NASB
But how can one do as he has purposed in his ownheart if he or she is at the same time forced to tithe? Well, some tithing advocates who pound Malachi 3 claim that the voluntary aspect of 2Cor9:7 pertains only to additional offerings or choosing where to tithe. But if the “where” was optional, then why does Malachi 3 set the storehouse as the exact “where” or place where the tithe must be given? The where is not optional. The problem is Malachi 3 does not apply in any way to Christians but rather only to Israel. Many of these tithe teachers mix Old and New Testament Scriptures together in a random haphazard way in order to try and get the Bible to say whatever they want it to say. This erroneous approach to Bible interpretation is often quite evident in many of their other teachings as well.
Briefly, you should NOT tithe. But, this is one of thehardest false teachings and false “church” habits to break. The reason is because we have been so utterly pounded with endless fear tactics and other mental gymnastics in order to keep us tithing. We think we’ll lose our job or our car will break down or some other fear based lunacy that these guys teach. It’s all unbiblical nonsense. Who is the direct beneficiary of the tithe teaching? You guessed it. The tithe teacher!
A few quick bullet points (but there is much more to be said on this subject):
*. Tithes were never collected in cash (livestock and crops only).
*. Tithes were collected only by Levitical priests.
*. A Levitical priest must be Jewish.
*. A Levitical priest must own no personal property. (Have you seen any pastors lately who own no personal property?)
*. There are presently no more of these priests in existence today so we know we have lots of counterfeit Levitical priests running around.
*. Tithes were often mandated by God for other uses such as giving to the poor. Tithes were sometimes to be used for the personal needs of the person who tithed. (When have you ever seen a pastor give the tithe back to the giver?)
The same men who teach the tithe gladly eat pork (which is OK for any Christian to do). But anyone who keeps any Old Testament ceremonial law (such as tithing) must keep all the Old Testament ceremonial laws (including the law that states that eating pork is forbidden). We also do not see these tithe teachers slaughtering bulls and goats as sacrifices to God (not that any Christian should).The point is, these men pick and choose to pull forward from the Old Testament law whatever they want and they have chosen to keep the tithe and throw out what is inconvenient (such as the prohibition on owning personal property, the prohibition on eating pork, animal sacrifices, etc.) in a nutshell whatever they don’t like and whatever does not suit them.
This is only a brief introduction to the tithing error. Again, much more could be said on this subject.

It is true many pastors had currupted their ways with the issue of tithe .They use the tithes for their personer benefit.The shepherd surpose to feed the sheep but today they are feeding themself.With this, they have made themself extremly rich. They have left the work of God ,they are after their stomach.

My brethen, if we say we are not going to pay tithe again then what have we done to help or assist the widows, orphans, poor and the needy around us. Are we calling the poor lazy or pity their condition? Let us try today to help somebody if we can not pay tithe for this is acceptable to God. No matter how faith you have, without this you are empty barren.As it was written that 'faith without work is dead' likewise, nobody can see God without holiness. In doing this there are secret to unlock the wealth. Read what Job did that made him rich and that make God love him more . In Job 29 : 12 -25.

Let us combine holiness with good work .

Very well written, all true believers are called to assist those in need and give to the poor rather than give a tenth of their income to false teachers misleading them.
Re: 101 reasons to pay tithe by broswilli: 10:49am On Dec 19, 2013
Tithe was made for the Jewish religious people but christians are urged to give freely. The ultimate sacrifice a christian should give is his/her life. That means christians are ready to give up their life as a sacrifice for their faith. The law of moses required a tenth of ur income the law of christ requires you to give all including ur life. Tithes are not mandatory, giving freely for the support of the faith is very important, read the bible book of Hebrews on this matter.
