There is also an increasing awareness of the real reason for tithing,it's principle and effects in the world,everyday more and more people pay their tithe,
Very soon more people will come to the light of gods word

Joagbaje:
And who told you Jesus wasn't collecting money?

Jesus wasnt saying it is wrong to have money. There is a different between a rich sinner and a rich saint. The saint gives his money to serve God. He is rich towards God.

All things belongs to God. He makes men rich.

Azibalua:
What makes you feel he was not the richest man on earth?
What do you understand by the rich man and the needle?
If he was not concerned about earthly riches why did he create them?

Joagbaje:
Have you received the infilling of the holy spirt ?

Joagbaje:
I think you need a pastor .

Joagbaje:
You should know by now if your questions are getting insincere , I will stop reponding to you. If it's ridicule you are out for. Bit if you seek truth and you want to discuss . Let's look into our bibles and see what God says. I didn't say Jesus differentiated . I dont like people who manipulate my posts to ridicule . I'm only trying to point to you the understanding of that passage. You believed by that passage that God is against being rich. And that's what I'm trying to correct. He is against a man putting trust in riches instead of God. But he is not against riches . That rich man had his trust in riches. He can't give.

I don't think all religious people are ignorant but if a person dismiss information or knowledge that he would otherwise accept if it wasn't because it conflicts with his religious convictions, then the person is being delibrately ignorant. I think you will also agree with me if I say, religious convictions can also make a person ignorant. Examples abound on this website and you make comments about it all the time.

I think you believe in god simply because you believe in the claims of christianity but I'm sure you don't believe in allah, zeus or vishnu simply because you have FAITH that yours is the real deal.[/b]Try to understand why you don't believe in vishnu and you"ll understand why I don't believe in yours.  [b]You reject everybody elses claims but protect yours from the same scrutiny, once you scrutinize yours with some intellectual hionesty, you'll become an atheist. You seem logical,smart and informed so if you're still a christian after you look at it objectively, the conclusion could be that you're scared of the uncertainity of death, you like the warm feeling and hope christianity gives you, or the indoctrination could be permanent.

Joagbaje:
Jesus was called fraud too . It's not an issue . I will still speak the truth.

dare2think:
By the way, YOU ARE NOT JESUS.

Joagbaje:
What has this got to do with me?.

dare2think:
Did Jesus differentiate between the "rich sinner" or the "rich saint". Did he not say "rich man".

Zikkyy:
One thing i can tell you, it's not from tithe and offerings or even first fruit or offer 7 I dont get paid for teaching half truth i don't sell rhapsodies handouts. I've done some bit of teaching but always ensure i deliver the complete package, no need for the participants to buy my ROR handout Paul would have been rolling in millions/billions of shekels if he was selling his writings/letters Imagine how much his estate would have been grossing today Anyways, it your turn to respond to my question

Bad timing you dont even know when to laugh truly sad

Joagbaje:
It doesn't matter the indoctrination of children. When Christians pray the way they ought,the power of salvation will break through the Walls and barriers of false religion. Salvation will be wrought. Only if we spend time on our knees enough.

del:
Violent, as your name sound so is your mind. you are discussing what you does not know. i will encourage you to start a research on how Bishop oyedepo got his wealth and get back to people on this forum.

dayokanu:
The only Papa i recognize is Abbas Akande Obesere, PAPA Tosibe

Joagbaje:
If he
at least you admit there is a "Power" so the next thing is "what kind of power"

But for your information , pastor chris had been working miracles from secondary school days. Preaching in villages and distributing free bibles.

mazaje:
If children were to be presented with the bible,koran and other religious text on their 21st birthdays and told to accept the stories and assertions of the books, majority of the kids will laugh and will NEVER accept what they read. . . . .Religion is culture and culture is a way of life. . . .People have to be indoctrinated at an early age and made to accept that their own version of mythology is right while other versions are wrong. . .Children just accept because they have no reason to believe that their parents are lying to them. . . . .

Joagbaje:
In the first place , God didn't send us to do police work by trying to know who is a man of God. But the bible says rather if a man comes to you as a minister, you should be careful who you receive as a minister . The bible tells us how to judge a minister . And that is by what he profess . Who is Jesus christ to him. What is his concept of salvation.i.e how many ways to salvation? Is Jesus come in the flesh or in the spirit. Did Jesus resurrect bodily?
