Alright.
I used to be one of the people that do not believe stronly on tithing. Until God open my eyes about the power of tithing.

If you constantly pay your tithe , you have indirectly make God a shareholder in your business.

Who is a share holder? A shareholder is a person who owns a shares in a company and therefore gets part of the company's profits and the right to vote on how the company is controlled.

Gen: 19 In the sweat of your face shall thou eat bread until you return to the ground. That was when man begin to struggle to eat That curse of strugling to survived will be authamitically be lifetd when you begin to tithe and you will begin to live in abundance.
If you re a born again and you dont tithe your incomes you may go to heaven but you re going to die poor and miserable. Even if you're a pastor. It is a secret I don't want to go far. And it has been working for me. Satan is a deciever don't allow anybody to decieve you not to believe this massage. Tithing is a secret to financial upliftment to those who knows it. I know why I said it is a secret.

Listern if you don't tithe your income or profit then you will end up having a pockect with holes, nomather how much recieve it will still not be enough and you will still continue to complain , because that curse in Gen 3 19 will still be speaking against you. If you like drink one bucket of the blood of Jesus grin My dear this is a revelation from God. Did you see me quotes Malachi? If you want to break away from that curse then make God a share holder in your business and sky will be your limit. Our God is a good manager. If God benefits from your Litle things you're earring , it is another ways of saying thank you. That means you re faithful over Litle and he will bless you with much, mind you he owns everything and whatever you have. So tithing is another sign of apprecations. When you stop to appreciate you begin to depreciates.


So settle with your father and he will settle with your deptors.
God bless you.
But Jesus told us to sell our possessions and give alms in Luke 12 and not to be anxious about our life, how's dyeing poor an issue/problem for a Christian in the first place undecided

Pay tithes first then loan. also avoid unnecessary loans . it can be a sign of umbelief and a cheap way of escape from the responsibility of faith in God

As a Christian who studies the bible very well, I pay tithe to myself. There are no Levites in Nigeria, any Nigerian that claims to be a descendants of Levi is a scammer.
Am I serious that one can eat his tithe? Deuteronomy 14:23 And before the Lord your God, in the place that he will choose, to make his name dwell there, you shall eat the tithe of your grain, of your wine, and of your oil, and the firstborn of your herd and flock
And where do you go to eat your tithe?

Where is the chosen place for you?

will I pay for all the past months... Or else put myself in unnecessary bondages.. owing tithes.
Well, I'm not the best person to talk about tithes.

I know tithes is necessary. But there're weightier matters {Mathew 23:23}.

If I'm in your state, I'll clear my debt {Mathew 5:25-26}. God sees you and he's more interested in you being righteous.

Well I believe God desires mercy and not sacrifice. He's a merciful God

Start afresh after your debt. The kingdom of God is more important that's why Christ was going about town to town talking about His kingdom and not about tithes.

Criticisms are highly welcomed.

How do you come about the dept? Christians should live whinen their financial status. The bible says a borrower is a servant to the lender.

Now since I have discovered the power in tithing , I don't joke with it.

If you re owning God and man at the same time then settle with God first and he will help you to settle your deptors.

God bless you.

If you want to know more about tithing, God have showed me the secret of tithing.

Shalom
Tell us the secret.

Instead I will go to another church I rather remain a Catholic I was born into... I was not there when Catholic church was created but as a man would have intellect I should ask questions about this and that when am not cleared about something... The contradictory messages between churches is what is even bursting my head...

Outside hail Mary and so... I think it's only Catholic that believes in purgatory... I may be wrong though, I need clarity if I am....

Your JW self get their own, they believe they are the only set of Christian doing the work of God, once there was a time one of u told me how there was no heaven or earth anywhere... I became confuse again, cos going to another church will confuse me the more, different churches with their own teachings... Last last I gave up just to live and do what I know is right

budaatum:
That's not what I said! I do not sit on my ass waiting for manna from heaven. I get off my ass and go up to heaven to grab it for myself, and to be honest with you, most if not all achievements of mine were achieved through hard work.

I studied hard to learn my trade and pass my exams, and I worked hard at my jobs and got appreciation and pay rises and promotions for so doing and now enjoy a comfortable pension commensurate with the effort I put into acquiring it.

One hardly achieves much without putting in the effort, and only lazy people expect to reap where they have not sown. If I had wanted to be a footballer I'd have trained as hard as Ronaldo instead of praying Man U signs me for sitting lazily on my ass.

The following pretty much applies to me.

Who, is budaatum, would be the more accurate question.

We read that buda was created in the image of buda's God.

Then God said, “Let us make buda in our image, in our likeness, so that buda may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals and over all the creatures that move along the ground.”

So God created buda in God's own image, in the image of God created buda; male and female God created buda.
bav

Though, to answer your question, buda is buda, and buda is in buda's home.
So is Buda a Christian?

1. You can't believe Paul over Jesus Christ, and still claim you submit to and obey only Jesus Christ. undecided

2. Paul's teachings on several issues indeed run contrary to Jesus Christ's teachings. Hence, even though He does state several times to stand on Jesus Christ, his other teachings contract this call of his. undecided

3. What Paul wrote is NOT the mystery of Jesus Christ's death at all. Instead it is an idea supposedly espoused by him. The writings in the Gospels do not corroborate some of his assertions. undecided

4. Jesus Christ gave us all a law like any of the other laws in the New Covenant Law of the Kingdom of God and this to teach the world - unbelievers aka the unsaved. Everyone of Paul's letters are not directed at unbelievers but instead includes attempts at teaching those who are saved - who have already entered into the Kingdom of God and are meant to be under the tutelage of Jesus Christ alone of Jesus Christ - this is against Jesus Christ. undecided

5. Jesus Christ did not send us out to teach saved individuals of his death and resurrection. He instead send up to preach the Gospels to those unsaved , baptizing those who believe and are saved. He didn't then tell or authorize anyone to then install themselves as teachers to them afterwards. undecided

Again, in the Kingdom of God, God alone is Teacher, and this is one of the major differences between the Old and New Covenants. In the Old Covenant, God gave the everyone in Israel the responsibly of teaching His Law to their neighbors and the Levites the right/authority to make certain it is enforced. And as all things humans go, God's business was hijacked by men who installed themselves as rulers, managers of God's information and they taught the doctrines and traditions of men, their ideas, instead of God's Law. undecided

In the New agreement, God installed Himself as Teacher - Jeremiah 31 vs 31 - 34 undecided

In the Kingdom of God, Jesus Christ declared that He alone is the only Teacher/Rabbi/Master. So if Paul is instead your teacher, I am afraid that means you serve another master. undecided

The same command which was given to Paul is given to each and everyone who is called to Jesus Christ and that is to go into the world - of both Gentiles and Jews - and teach the Gospel to those who do not believe. That Paul's letters to those he worked with are contained in your Bible does not any way put him above Jesus Christ or any of the other followers. Paul simply happened to have had more of his letters published in your Bible is all. undecided

The disciple Andrew is written of a traveling to teach the Gospel to some in Georgia and Asia where he was supposedly murdered.

Giving glory to Paul is akin to deify-ing him this when the contribution is what gave the most rise to what is status of Christianity today. If Christians had stayed focused on Jesus Christ, rather than distracting themselves with the many tales of Paul, Christianity wouldn't be as muddled up as it is today. undecided
Did I ever mentioned that my eyes aren't fixed on Christ? undecided

Did Paul's teaching go contrary to fixing one's eye on Christ? undecided

Did Paul help us to understand the mystery of the death of Christ or he neglected Christ and preached himself? undecided

The other disciples studied under Jesus Christ for 3- 4 years and even their word is not gold. What makes you think Paul's word should be? undecided

Look, until you find God as your one and only Teacher. You will continue to be tossed around by the words and ideas of men instead of Jesus Christ. undecided
Paul is not my saviour undecided I didn't say so undecided

I only glorify God over his life and how he yielded to the Holy Spirit thus bearing much fruit of the Spirit that I can learn from.

After all, Christ said teach them things I have commanded. Paul's contribution to shaping the life of God's people during the time of trials and how he suffered so much for Christ serving as an example unto those who were once gentiles and those circumcised is no joke. undecided

Paul was not blinded because he believed in Jesus Christ, and certainly not because he refused God's call or something of that hogwash you keep asserting. Paul did not know of such a call until after his encounter with Jesus Christ. undecided

Paul, himself explained that he was struck with blindness because he, a person of the Old Covenant tried to stand in the way of God's New Covenant, Jesus Christ and His followers. I recall Zachariah was another Old Covenant individual who tried to stand in the way of God's New Covenant - He was made dumb as a result, and it wasn't until after he changed his mind that he could speak again. undecided

As to why Paul didn't refuse the supposed call, i would probably say because he realized that he had been serving a lie and finally found the truth in Jesus Christ. I mean you have to use your head in these things for Pete's sake. Here we have a fervent Pharisee in Paul who at 23 was already engaged with one of the best teachers or their Colleges at the time. Rather than busy himself with acquiring wealth as was typical of Pharisees during his time, Paul instead went after those who he believed preached blasphemy in the name of his God. undecided

On one such mission, Paul encounters Jesus Christ and from that encounter realizes God's plan all along and came to know that Jesus Christ was indeed the promised one. What reason would Paul have had to refuse the invitation? undecided
Absolutely!

OP should know that an encounter is not enough but knowing or realizing the truth undecided

Paul realized the truth aside the encounter. He went to study for 13 years before preaching the Gospel of Christ undecided

Many were there when Christ did the miracle with 2 fishes and 5 loaves undecided

But they didn't see the bigger plan undecided
