Religion / Re: Bishop David Oyedepo Speaks On Tithing (Video) by aroti: 2:03pm On Nov 12, 2017 |
sarutobie: Every time I read deutronomy 14 22 - 29; I laugh in Hebrew! It lands a devastating blow on what ever argument or defence any modern day tithe obsessed pastopreneur might attempt to establish. If you truly and honestly study this passage of the bible you should easily come to the following conclusions 1 that tithes are tangible, consumable agro produce. 2. That tithing are Done annually and every three years. 3. That the annual tithing is a God ordained act for tither to express a heartfelt gratitude, worship and thanks to God for the blessing of that year's fruit fullness through the consumption of the tithe ( Agro produce) with his household at a Place his Lord God Chooses to place his name. 4. That the Lord God being aware of the existence of Money (Silver) at that biblical time never instructed that money should be given as tithe. 5. That if God actually meant it for money to be used as tithe; he would not have instructed that it be used to purchase tangible, consumable, Agro or drinks or anything that the tither's heart lust or desire after; even fermented drink. 6 That even after the Lord God recognised that in instance in which tithe of increase being agric produce could be too heavy for the tither to carry to the place he chooses for his name; and he the tither was told to change it into money, the same Lord God instructed that the same money be used to buy whatsoever the tither's heart desire; a tangible, consumable Agro produce; because seriously if one thinks about it; can anyone literally chew or drink money ? Certainly not ; thus as far as our Lord God Is concerned consumption of a tenth (tithe) of the tither's annual increase is to be eating ( chewed an swallowed) in the spirit of thanks and expressed gratitude towards our Lord God for the fruitfulness of the last 1 year. In summary; the annual tithe is agric produce practically chewed, swallowed and washed down with drinks ( even fermented ones) by the tither and his household in expression of thanks to the Lord God at his place of chosen. The 2nd category of tithe according to this wonderful passage of the scripture are tithe given every 3rd year ( not annually please). You will also conclude thereof; 1. That the 3 yearly tithe is for 4 categories of people and not exclusive to any one category namely: a, Levites. b, Widows, c, Strangers and d, Fatherless (Orphans) 2, That the 3 yearly tithe are also tangible consumable Agric produce to be set at the tither's gate for these categories of people to take and eat. By inference, a tither can on occasion of every 3 years take 1/10 of his increase that year and share it among these 4 categories of people. In summary tithes that goes to the Levites are 3 yearly tithes which are not exclusive to them but Inclusive of the fatherless, Widows and Strangers. Would given one's tithe ( 3 yearly) to Strangers or a widow or an orphan scriptural ? Ans is absolutely Yes and in line with this passage. Thus if we even assume or accepts that the modern day pastors are Levites, they are only entitled ( not in whole but in part) to tithes given at the end of every 3 years. The Levites ( if our modern day pastor are still feeling levitical) are mandated to also give 1/10 of these 3 yrly tithes they received to the house of God ; which gets me thinking seriously about who actually is robbing according to their ever handy and easily quoted Malachi 3 ? 1 Like |

NaijaMutant: All hail Jagaban. The script of Akerodolu's victory was well played out. All hail jagaban, the political grand master of our time who knew and covertly went against Akerodolu and his party on the choice of APC candidature for Ondo state gubernatorial election all in the bid to get all detractors guessing and salivating over the thought that he Tinubu has lost it all. E.g Tinubu/ Oyegun confrontation Saga on preferred choice of candidate. AD ( Tinubu's old party) candidature to further convince detractors that all is indeed not well in the APC camp and of course a masterstroke that massaged the egos of the Ondo state power brokers and their followers that Tinubu cannot come and dictate or godfather Ondo politics. But here we are . Lobatan! |
