Have you come across this in your bible?

Misconceptions like yours are what you get when you read the Bible selectively.

You already think that it is a good thing to edify oneself at the expense of the church abi? grin

Chosen people are dancing again

Paul emphasized church order.

But all things must be done properly and in an orderly manner. (1 Corinthians 14:40)

These people are mad. They are shaming the body of Christ before unbelievers who would merely laugh at them and call them mad people.

You neither fake it nor understand it. You're speaking to God, only him understands.

Just like many Christians, you have no idea of what speaking in tongues mean.

When you speak in tongues during corporate worship, especially when you are making a public prayer and you start speaking in a tongue that no one can interpret to the rest of the church, then you have just spoken to the air. Gifts of the spirit is not to edify just the person that possesses it. It is to edify the whole church that is why the gift of speaking in tongues always goes hand in hand with the gift of interpretation.

Speaking in a tongue that no one in the church understands is babel (Remember the Tower of Babel?)

God gave the gift of speaking in tongues to make messages easier to pass across without the restrain of language barrier (Remember when the Apostles spoke in tongues and everyone listening heard in their own native tongues). Without the miracle of speaking in tongues, only a few natives would have heard the disciples.

The Bible says that it is better to keep silent in church than to speak in tongues without an interpreter.

One atheist says because he is wicked God, thats how he created the devil to torment people.

Are there mosquitos in hell fire or heaven?

What are the economic importance of mosquito?

To me, i see mosquito as a reminder that we should clean our environment, what do you think?

Every living thing was created for a reason.

Mosquitoes do not have any obvious relevance to us but they serve as food to some other living things like birds and frogs.

God has created everything to serve a purpose.

Christianity Etc › Re: Adeboye Vs Oyedepo Vs Okonkwo Vs Adeyemi On Tithing by BluntBoy(m): 2:33pm On Feb 08, 2019

birdman:
sigh. ok. you think salaries are not titheable. instead of going back and forth, tell us why. Im not interested in back and forths and gotchas. Tithe is not land based. If you believe otherwise state your case. I stated mine.

Tithe is land based and it is tied to the Promised Land. That is why an increase in yields on the Promised Land is tithed. Only crops and livestock. There was money in those days because there was an option of redeeming tithes, but you couldn't give tithes in money. And to emphasize the essence of tithe being land based, redeeming tithes came with a price.

Tithes was land based and it was tied to the Promised Land which defined God's covenant with Israel.

There is no Jew on this earth who would tithe outside the Promised Land. But you, Christians, who have decided to let others do your Bible readings for you, are at the mercy of wolves in sheep's clothing who pervert the scriptures for pecuniary gains.

birdman:
Lol. so it must be 3000 the next month do you can tithe off the 1000 increase. Its ok. I wont bag on you anymore. I pray we all get grow in understanding.

Tithe is a tenth of an increase. For as long as your salary is fixed, there is no increase to tithe on. That is the law.

Christianity Etc › Re: Adeboye Vs Oyedepo Vs Okonkwo Vs Adeyemi On Tithing by BluntBoy(m): 10:41am On Feb 08, 2019

birdman:
i see. but you said i didnt know what tithe was. ok.

tithe was not always land based. in some cases, it was war goods.

You didn't know what tithe was. If you did, you wouldn't have mentioned salaries as a reference point. We all know that salaries mostly always remained fixed over a period of time and yet people are compelled to tithe out of their regular salaries.

You said tithe was not always land based and you are saying this so confidently because of Abraham who tithed out of the spoils of war.

You people need to make up your minds. Do you tithe like Abraham or as people under the law? You can't say both because tithing like Abraham is totally different from tithing under the law.

Abraham tithed out of war booties and not out of an increase in his produce and/or livestock. So, you should know I wasn't talking about Abraham when I said tithe was land based.

So, please, answer my question. Do you know why tithe was land based?

This is a boy who is yet to sit for WAEC, but he is already working with Julius Berger as a civil engineer; and he has Chinese bosses who pay him in dollars and per hour.

All thanks to social media... Introverts like us have nothing to worry about. We hardly take pictures sef.
Something happened in one of the places I've worked, we recruited this new guy (a graduate) as an office assistant. So on the day of resumption, I was showing him around the office and I also took him to the MD's office to intimate him with his duties (the MD wasn't around yet) but I had access to his office. So I quickly left to answer a call in my office, then I returned to the the MD's office not knowing what had happened.
That same evening, I saw on this guy's WhatsApp status, the pictures he took while I was briefly away. He went as far as taking one on the MD's seat. First day at the office fah!! He even captioned it..'When Grace finds you'. This was someone whose salary was barely 25k.

If you used 10,000 to do business, and you make 12000, your increase is 2k. If next month you use another 10,000 and make 2,500, your increase for that month is 2500.

If you put in 10,000 in month 1 only, and make 2000 each month after, your increase in 2000 each month.

If you dont want to give, dont. Nobody is forcing you. But dont deceive yourself. If the money is that important to you that you cant let go, you have mammon issues. Deal with it

You are merely repeating me rather than refuting me.

Try this:
Dont go to work for the next week, Let grace pay your bills.
Dont study for your next exam. Let grace help you pass.
Dont plant any crop. Let grace provide a harvest.

Is it not obvious that to reap a good grade, you must sow time in study? Did the food you ate today appeared without sowing and reaping?

The intent of the tithe is revealed in Genesis 14, by Melchizedek after Abram defeated 5 kings. Note, he meets Abram AFTER the battle and Abram gives a tenth of the spoils.

After this pattern, when you, or the Isrealites win because of the power of God, either on your job (salary), or your harvest(sheep), you bring a tenth to acknowledge the power that blessed you. For Jesus is a priest after the order of Melchizedek.

Abel did it, as did Abram before the law. The new covenant, being better than that of the law does not remove acts of praise and thankfulness. If anything, we are to walk in it much more!

You can go to heaven without tithe because the righteousness needed is settled in Jesus. YES! But as Paul said, in a great house, there are many kinds of vessels. For me, I do not give because of threats. I give because the covenant I am under is far better! How can those under the law outgive those under grace!

You don't even know what tithe means.

Tithe is a tenth of an increase , not of your original produce or earnings.

If you make 2000 naira this month and 2,000 naira next month, you are not mandated to tithe because there was no increase on which to tithe a tenth.

The only credit that goes to Obasanjo is the transparent auctioning that he supervised. He was not the one who implemented it from the scratch. Nigeria had given out licenses right from the time of Sani Abacha. This means that implementation started from that time.

IMAGINARY REWARDS IF THEY BELIEVE, AND IMAGINARY PUNISHMENTS IF THEY DON'T, IS WHAT KEEPS CHRISTIANS GLUED TO THEIR NO-SENSE GOD CONCEPT.

NOBODY TRULY HAS A GENUINE RELATIONSHIP WITH THIS SO CALLED GOD. THEIR FRIENDSHIP AND "LOVE" IS BRED BY FEAR AND IGNORANCE. NOTHING PERSONAL. JUST TRUCKLOADS OF TRASH THEY LEARNT FROM RELIGIOUS PEOPLE THAT RAISED THEM.

You are right. They are scared even of their own shadows. 2000 Bibles, crucifixes, pastors' pictures in one small room is never enough for the Christian inhabiting that room. A small sound is enough to make them wet their pants.

It is this constant fear that businessmen in suits use to part these Christians from their money. Fear of hell, fear of devourers, fear of criticizing self-acclaimed men of God, fear of poverty are some of the many tools that thieves in suits use to mercilessly plunder the church. It is just sad.

I don't fear hellfire. My love for God is genuine and not forced. It is a perfect love and there is no fear in perfect love.

There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love. (1 John 4:18)
