More testament to the fact that Nigerias human resource base is dwindling by the day.

Nawa oh. Nairalands resident pastor, what do you have to say?

She's very right. And if her narrative doesn't suit yours, you can go ahead and read Acts 2:4-19

stagger:
There is no confusion in Christianity. Read the bible for yourself and let the Holy Spirit give you interpretation.

Seconded. There's no confusion. But what people haven't realized is that there are superior scriptures over some other scriptures. Since we claim to be followers of Christ by labelling ourselves Christians, we cannot cling on to what was said by Apostle Paul perse, or the Paulian concessions over the words of Christ himself (The Red Scriptures).

Thesame applies to the old covenant and the new covenant. Since the death of Christ in 33CE, we've been operating under the new covenant. So I'll see it as a wrong move to cling on the provisions of the old covenant over the new covenant in cases where there's a contradiction.

How this confusion can be eliminated amongst Christians is that we should be aware of the superiority of some scriptures over another when contradictions may arise... Shalom.

Well said. But if I had told the OP he's not to pay tithes, he may come for my head. That's why I dropped that aforementioned Bible verse, since he's hell-bent on paying tithe.

Preator:
hmmmn. So we are to eat our tithes in the house of God?

22 Be sure to set aside a tenth of all that your fields produce each year.

23 Eat the tithe of your grain, new wine and olive oil, and the firstborn of your herds and flocks in the presence of the Lord your God at the place he will choose as a dwelling for his Name, so that you may learn to revere the Lord your God always.

24 But if that place is too distant and you have been blessed by the Lord your God and cannot carry your tithe (because the place where the Lord will choose to put his Name is so far away),

25 then exchange your tithe for silver, and take the silver with you and go to the place the Lord your God will choose.

26 Use the silver to buy whatever you like: cattle, sheep, wine or other fermented drink, or anything you wish. Then you and your household shall eat there in the presence of the Lord your God and rejoice.

27 And do not neglect the Levites living in your towns, for they have no allotment or inheritance of their own.

28 At the end of every three years, bring all the tithes of that year’s produce and store it in your towns,

29 so that the Levites (who have no allotment or inheritance of their own) and the foreigners, the fatherless and the widows who live in your towns may come and eat and be satisfied, and so that the Lord your God may bless you in all the work of your hands.

False claim 1. The tithe applies to everyone. This is not true because tithing only applied to those in Israel who who were farmers and ranchers among the 11 tribes who paid the tithe to the Levites. It should also be known that the tithe was commanded for the Levites and since Jesus was from the tribe of Benjamin, the Bible says nothing about the tribe of Benjamin receiving tithes. Therefore, the argument that you pay tithes to Jesus is false because he was not from the tribe of Levi.

False claim 2. God requires you to give 10% of your income to the church as a tithe. This is not true because there is not chapters and verse that covers monetary tithing. And because the tithe is empirically defined as food, money was not the tithe of the Bible nor is money required as a tithe in church.

False claim 3. God will curse you if you don’t tithe. This is true only if you did not tithe crops and livestock as God required in the law. There is not curse for not tithing money since the biblical tithe is all edible items.

False Claim 4. God will make you rich by pouring out blessings from the windows of heaven. This is false because the windows of heaven is not about money, it is about the expanse of the sky from which rain falls. If you tithe money when the Bibles does not endorse this action, there is no benefit to you because the practice is based on custom, tradition and man’s Law not God’s law.

Your tithe is ₦10,000. But read Deuteronomy 14: 22-29 to see how your tithe should be spent... Shalom.

In Nigeria there only two marriage acts.
1: Customary marriage often called traditional marriage.
What constitutes this type of marriage (a) Bride price must be paid in full, and the bride will be handed over to the groom or any of his family member. Any other celebration or gifts are not taken into account, if you like buy an estate for your in-laws.
(b) Parents consent is required.
(c) It can be conducted any time within 24 hours of a day, it's open to polygamy
And
Statutory marriage often called court wedding.
(a) Parents consent is not required.
(b) Bride price is not required.
(c) It must be conducted before official office closing hour, and within 90 days after filling papers and full stamped documents, marriage vows should conducted by a registered marriage registrar, who must be a legal personel.
Any of the two is legal and binding before God and Man.,
(d) It does not allow polygamy
Remember any church or places that perform statutory marriage without been licensed makes the marriage void, ask your clergy whether your church is permitted and licensed to perform statutory marriage, for example after having gone to a marriage registrar and obtain necessary papers, you go to your pastor to administer the marriage vows, if the church place is not registered to perform such, you marriage is invalid.

Men, do not embark on self improvement to "get girls"


That's a wasteful, empty and self deprecating life to live.

Exercise because you want to be fit.
Grow wealth because you want to be rich.
Spend on yourself because you deserve self love.


DO NOT DO ANYTHING FOR A WOMAN'S AFFECTION!

My team is there!!! Telling FCB. Not the mumu FCB in catalunya oh. But the FCB in Munich

Not a name alot off football fans are familiar with, but I believe he'll do a solid work in Manchester. He laid down the foundations of club's under the Red Bull franchise are currently building on.

Manchester United’s board decided to sack Ole Gunnar Solskjær at an emergency meeting on Saturday night and are waiting for Joel Glazer, the co-chairman who heads the American family’s ownership, to approve the decision.

A meeting, which lasted several hours, was called after the team’s chastening 4-1 defeat at Watford. The plan is for an announcement to avoid describing Solskjær as sacked and refer to a mutual agreement.

Solskjær admitted after a fourth defeat in five Premier League games that his team were “outfought” by Watford and had let the fans down but insisted he was able to turn their fortunes around. The board disagreed, however. Glazer backed Solskjær late last month despite the 5-0 humiliation by Liverpool after the executive vice-chairman, Ed Woodward, and managing director, Richard Arnold, joined Sir Alex Ferguson in throwing their support behind the manager. But the directors concluded there was no way back for Solskjær after the latest defeat.

United responded to the Liverpool result by winning 3-0 at Tottenham but have since scrambled a late draw at Atalanta in the Champions League and been comprehensively beaten by Manchester City and a struggling Watford whose only previous home league victory came on the opening day against Aston Villa.

The disastrous outing at Vicarage Road brought to 15 the number of goals conceded by United in their past five league games, and David de Gea described the performance as “embarrassing”. Solskjær was booed by United fans, some of whom also remonstrated with Bruno Fernandes, at full time.

“I always have belief in myself,” Solskjær said. “Of course at the moment it’s a difficult time for us. I can trust every single one out there to give their all. The staff are fantastic, but the results are difficult. I believe we can turn this around.

DAY 278, REDPILL 2021

You lover guys want to save women that don't want to be saved.

What these women want is fun and fvck, but when they are done, they gravitate to another.

These women don't want a serious relationship but yet you lover guys want to compel them into one, and at the end cry cats and dogs!

Know this: women got their games too, so don't try to force yourself into one and vice versa. That's the essence of genuine desire, game and abundant mindset.

Becoming too focus on one particular woman is the damn of men!

If she have fun with you today and shift left tomorrow, don't bother asking unnecessary questions. It's game she's playing. You too, act cold and come in contact other women. Anytime she resets her mind you continue with the flow if you wish.

Let her be the one having a vacillating heart not you!

Women are naturally endowed with this game and has gone incredibly far. So, thinking, acting and operating from a "windows 1960" threshold is death!

Don't be stupid!

Act like a man!

Authority: Act like a man!
