OkCornel:
To honour God with your wealth as a Christian. Read Matthew 25 v 31-46.

What you do unto the least of your brethren you do unto Christ.

Matthew 25:31-46
[31]“When the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the holy angels with Him, then He will sit on the throne of His glory.
[32]All the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate them one from another, as a shepherd divides his sheep from the goats.
[33]And He will set the sheep on His right hand, but the goats on the left.
[34]Then the King will say to those on His right hand, ‘Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:
[35]for I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in;
[36]I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to Me.’
[37]“Then the righteous will answer Him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You drink?
[38]When did we see You a stranger and take You in, or naked and clothe You?
[39]Or when did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?’
[40]And the King will answer and say to them, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.’
[41]“Then He will also say to those on the left hand, ‘Depart from Me, you cursed, into the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels:
[42]for I was hungry and you gave Me no food; I was thirsty and you gave Me no drink;
[43]I was a stranger and you did not take Me in, naked and you did not clothe Me, sick and in prison and you did not visit Me.’
[44]“Then they also will answer Him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minister to You?’
[45]Then He will answer them, saying, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to Me.’
[46]And these will go away into everlasting punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”

Giving to the poor is also part of doing God's stuff...
So is it a sin to give to churches? Or to contribute to churches?

OkCornel:
Where did God, Jesus or the Apostles request tithes from Christians?

Read Acts 15 slowly, your answer is there.

Answer my question before I read Acts 15...
Answer me slowly ....

[quote author=Amerengues2 post=131853793][/quote]You can read it carefully
... Stick to your ideology more like how a butter can stick with bread... Anywhere you like eat your tithe. Infact you can eat it your ancestors house...

AfonjaMozlem:
Fraud and laziness are naturally in their genes
That's why they are genetically encoded with envy

Who are those you are referring to?

OkCornel:
Awww, so you’re implying God must be dumb to limit tithing to crops and livestock when He gave the instructions on tithing? God was blind to the fact money existed when he laid out the instructions?

How can you honour the Lord with your wealth when you choose to disobey His laid out instructions? Please explain.

How can I honour God with my wealth?

Okay, God's laid down tithing rule according to your ideology is to tithe with crops. Now, as a Christian and not a farmer, how can I tithe?

OkCornel:
Does it say honour the Lord with monetary tithes?

Honour the Lord with your wealth by all means.

It still doesn’t change the way God specifically laid out the instructions for tithing. Deuteronomy 14 v 22-29.

Do things the way God wants it, not by your way or manmade traditions.

So you want to remove money from the meaning of wealth?


Are you okay?

If you like tithe with crops yearly...

Mind you, I ain't a farmer...

Just stay glued with your ideology and leave mine to me...

OkCornel:
It is not my mentality. Do things the way God wants it to be done.

Also, remember when a tither eats his tithe. He’s obeying God. And obedience is honouring the Lord.

You haven't answer my question...
Proverbs 3:9 (NIV) says, “Honor the Lord with your wealth,

This verse says I can honor the Lord with my wealth ... Is it a sin to honor God with my wealth?

OkCornel:
It is a sin to disobey God’s laid down instructions and do things your own way.

Did God request for money as tithes?

Okay it is a sin... Okay support with bible verse...

I have support my own with bible verse



I can honor God with my wealth

Proverbs 3:9 (NIV) says, “Honor the Lord with your wealth,

OkCornel:
Very good. When God instructs something be done in a particular way, but you insist on doing it your own way, what is that called?

Stop dodging my questions. Answer my question ... Is it a sin to give God from my increase in wealth?

OkCornel:
When God laid out the instructions for tithing, where did God request for money?

Yeah God is not asking for money .... He is asking for crops to tithe right?

So to tithe with money is a sin? So It is a sin to honor God with my increase? Either with wealth or crops?

Lovit:
Don't go that route bro

There are over 630 laws given to the Israelites by God and Moses in the Old Testament, we are not following up to 20 of them sef

There is a reason some Pentecostals held on to this tithing law, which is basically to raise funds, but it is fraudulent and has been abused. continue giving your tithe if you wish but let those who don't want to tithe be.

Even at that... The ten commandments can't be erased... Abi?

And those who are not tithing are the ones condemning we tithing ... And so? Just get some rest....

OkCornel:
I love your reasoning. Should we also tear away the 613 laws of Moses from the bible too?

The question goes to you not me...

OkCornel:
God laid out instructions for what specifically should be tithed in Deuteronomy 14 v 22-29. Why are you dodging from it?

Deuteronomy 14:22
[22]“You shall truly tithe all the increase of your grain that the field produces year by year.

I ain't dodging anything ...

So since it seems from you now that tithing is a sin to God, should we now stop tithing and start tithing to devil?

OkCornel:
On the bolded, go back and read your own words “where did gentiles got the law”?

Killing or committing adultery has always been evil before the 10 commandments were given.

Cain did not need 10 commandments to know it was wrong to kill Abel. Cain has a conscience right?

Reuben did not 10 commandments to know it was wrong to sleep with his father’s concubine.

Christians do not need 10 commandments to distinguish good from evil. Christians have conscience right?

Hahahahaha I can't laugh... Since we don't need the ten commandments, then let's tear the old testament away from the bible...

And let us tell God, that He didn't do well for given the ten commandments to lay emphasis on law....
So Cain was a Christian?

Rheuben was also a Christian that folllwoed the law by nature?


I thought you will mention a Christian that followed the law by nature ...
Lol


Mtcheeeew

OkCornel:
10% of what exactly did God request as tithe?

Book, chapter and verse please

Proverbs 3:9 (NIV) says, “Honor the Lord with your wealth, with the first fruits of all your crops.”

Malachi 3:10 Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.


SO ALSO SHOW ME WHERE TITHING IS CONDEMNED IN THE BIBLE BY GOD?

Hotice085:
Are you a levite or are you paying it to a levite?

Paying or giving tithe all na the same thing and Tithe is dead
Stop making God look like idols who demands transactions before he answers you

Can you explain these verse and let's us see if it is meant for the Levite's

👇👇👇

1 Corinthians 9:11-13
[11]If we have sown spiritual things for you, is it a great thing if we reap your material things?
[12]If others are partakers of this right over you, are we not even more? Nevertheless we have not used this right, but endure all things lest we hinder the gospel of Christ.
[13]Do you not know that those who minister the holy things eat of the things of the temple, and those who serve at the altar partake of the offerings of the altar?

Hotice085:

Tithing is not meant for God to answer you... God is supreme ... Many gives to God to appreciate Him in their lives .... 10percent is too small for God... Do you get that.?

Many gives more than the 10%.... So who are you to say it is not right when God Himself didn't condemn tithing?

OkCornel:
Was the law ever given to the gentiles to start with?

And did I say it was given to the gentiles? And since it wasn't given to the gentiles ... Is it right for a Christian to Kill or commit adultery?

I am asking ...cos same verse you quoted said by nature the gentiles follow the law...

OkCornel:
Nice try. Now read Romans 2 v 14-15. Even the gentiles knew the difference between good and evil without the need for Jewish laws.

Where did God, Jesus or the Apostles request tithes from believers under the new covenant?

Where in the scriptures did God request for money as tithes?

Romans 2:14-15
[14]for when Gentiles, who do not have the law, by nature do the things in the law, these, although not having the law, are a law to themselves,
[15]who show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and between themselves their thoughts accusing or else excusing them

The Gentiles who do not have the law, by nature do things in the law...

By nature gentile do the things in the law...
So what are the things in the law?
Where do the gentiles got the law?

OkCornel:
Nice try. Now read Romans 2 v 14-15. Even the gentiles knew the difference between good and evil without the need for Jewish laws.

Where did God, Jesus or the Apostles request tithes from believers under the new covenant?

Where in the scriptures did God request for money as tithes?

And where did God condemned tithes as you are condemning it right now... You said nice try ?

Where is tithing labelled a sin by God or the Apostles....

Let me tell you, I don't PAY tithes... I GIVE tithes...

OkCornel:
Are the Pharisees and Scribes also Christians? Are they under the new covenant?

Does the new covenant require Christians to tithe?

Did God request for money as tithes in either the old or New Testament?

Can you explain Hebrews 13 v 10 for us please?
10. We have an altar from which those who minister at the tabernacle have no right to eat.


Why are pastorpreneurs suspiciously quiet on the fact that God permits tithers to eat their tithes? Deuteronomy 14 v 23-27

For example the 10 commandments given during the time of Moses, we shouldn't follow it as Christains too cos the Apostles were not given abi?

I am not digressing?

Please show me where tithing is a sin?

If you can't show me then piss off.

Pastorpreneurs are not my problem .... They awaits God's judgement... Not mine judgement or yours...

Lovit:
When Jesus made that statement, the people were still practicing the Jewish religion. The people he spoke to were Jews and not Christians

Christianity did not start while Jesus was here, but after he died.

A perfect example should be what the disciples did and how Paul and Peter ran the early church, they didn't collect tithes

Thou shall not commit adultery and the other 9 commandments were not given during the time Christianity started ... So by your own ideology, Christians are not meant to follow them ... Lol

Cos tithing also started before Christianity started... You well?

The last time I checked the ten commandments for example wasn't given to the apostles but Moses... Lol

So tithes now shouldn't be followed cos it started before christianity and wasn't mentioned and the apostles didn't mentioned it

Leaving the place is the best option... CCTV as how?

OkCornel:
Now we all know the thieves twisting scriptures.
1. Continue up to 1 Corinthians 9 v 15-16 and tell us what Paul wrote there. Also, where did Paul, Jesus or any of the Apostles label “tithe” as proceeds of the gospel?

2. Where did Jesus or the Apostles request tithes from Christians especially after what happened in Acts 15?

3. Where in the scriptures did God request for money as tithes?

You are looking for the word tithe...

Keep looking for it ... Even Jesus never condemned tithing but condemned the hypocrisy of the pharisees...

Can you tell me what is the "other undone"

23] Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.

Can you explain the verse... Bible scholar... The other ones you didn't explain but beating around the bush ...

Also show me where the apostles were against tithing ....?

From your increase comes your tithing...

If you are a farmer, you can tithe from your harvest and not money ... Very simple

OkCornel:
This extortionary scam called monetary tithing has been exposed.

Also show us from the scriptures how Pastors have replaced Levites to collect tithes. We dey wait.

1 Corinthians 9:13-14
[13]Do you not know that those who minister the holy things eat of the things of the temple, and those who serve at the altar partake of the offerings of the altar?
[14]Even so the Lord has commanded that those who preach the gospel should live from the gospel.

Explain these verse and tell me here ...

Or the writer is also a scammer like Nigeria pastors ...

OkCornel:

Your answer here👇👇👇
Corinthians 9:13-14 American Standard Version (ASV)

Know ye not that they that minister about sacred things eat of the things of the temple, and they that wait upon the altar have their portion with the altar?

Or this verse meant for scammers? Or explain more better... Bible scholar

TRUE*

Your own dreams aren't coming true...any time soon

So na panyaaa I wrote before right?_ you no well

OkCornel:
Alright kindly point out examples of

1. Jesus or his Apostles requesting tithes from Christians.

2. Examples of gentile Christians in the bible that tithed.

3. Where God asked for money as tithes.

Okay ... Also tell me where Jesus and other apostles said it in the same bible that tithing is scam and fraud...

Examples of gentiles Christians in the bible that tithed? Lol

So Christianity and Judaism started with gentiles?

Judolisco:
My opinion on tithe.... In the new testament jesus taught us that if your gift is not coming from a cheerful heart God doesn't want it...... Also d widow gave jst a little and God saw her heart, while the rich man gave plenty and his gift was rejected.........

But now you hardly hear, give God your dancing offering.... Na us they spend dis money oh... God doesn't need your money for anything....

The work of God is God's work ... So if you definately give to God's work, you are giving to God.

TheChameleon:


Why did they stop ?

I can't EVER tithe. But I love those who do.

I'm planning to become a Pastor. Bang wives and daughters of worshippers and then the husbands pay me their tithes for my services.

If I don't dig your wife... na only tithe I go collect oo

May your dreams not come through ...
