KingTom:
BrooooooooooooossBroooooooooooooss like say you read my mind wetin concern us with thief and charms? Na nude man wan see

hopefulLandlord:
you seem to be intentionally dodging his main question, here it is again And you didn't answer the question as to why we should be using church offerings to start businesses?

The businesses belong to who? Years back I know that RCCG full time pastors pay much lesser for their kids to attend their secondary schools and the case may be the same even in the university. Members are placed on scholarships but you don't know. Accommodation built in the camp is so cheap with guaranteed electricity and water. I know this because I tried getting one last year but I couldn't because I am not a member. Their maternity homes all over the place offer quality service at cheaper rates, they even attend to non Christians. People are employed in all of those businesses maybe you don't know

savagefinder:
pls.. We can see their universities but we've never seen the hospitals, especially here in kogi.. So, pls show me names or links or pictures of their hospitals

And you didn't answer the question as to why we should be using church offerings to start businesses?

And my stand still remains, these churches have unlimited resources from offerings and tithes from all over the country, school fees shouldn't be expensive

What should be used? Loans from banks?

And please how do you know it's unlimited? Do you know what it costs to run a university? Do you know what it cost to pay lecturers yearly and sponsor researches? It is very easy to criticize from the outside but when you are involved you realize things are much tougher

You should see some information with a simple Google search

elrony:

Ah brother ABI wetin I ask bad? That's the normal thing now even in the Western world

savagefinder:
these churches have access to almost unlimited funds.. Private jets running into 5..by the way.. Since when should we start businesses with offering money?
A hospital that subsidizes bills for people (Xtians or Muslims) should have been the best thing to do.. But our Pastors want to make profit..

RCCG have hospitals all over the country with subsidized bills, do your research

Fingerprinter:
Even me wey no dey go church know say the people you mentioned were not trying to pay tithe before they died.
They made a pledge, not tithe, and were dishonest in redeeming the pledge.
The reason that infuriated God to kill them was because they pledged willingly and later wanted to game the system.
Moreover, let's assume it was tithe that they were trying to pay, did the apostles receiving it then use it to buy new donkeys and chariots for themselves? Did they not share it among the poor and the needy in the congregation?

LOL! Of course I know that wasn't tithe but they brought money to church. In fact they were selling their properties and not bringing just 10% but all. Whether will call it tithe or offering or contribution what is the difference? The point is this didn't start today whether tithe or offering or pledge.

Everyone with common sense know that not every act was recorded in the Bible. And there are lots of good carried out by churches today but they are not considered news worthy

Statsocial:
Don't mind them jare. It is also the fact that many so called educated Nigerians don't know history at all. Some of them would come and tell you about how missionaries of old sponsored education yet not know that missionaries of old were sponsored by their governments.

There's nothing like free education. Somebody is definitely paying for it unless the teaching and non teaching staff are working pro bono

camqueen:

Shebi there's one month free trial?

NtoAkwaIbom:
HAVE YOU EVEE READ YOUR BIBLE BEFORE ? OR YOU JUST SWALLOW UP ALL THE JUNK YOUR PASTOR GIVES YOU ?

TIthe is 10% of what you have... Was it 10% that was demanded in Ananias case ? Or for them to sell everything ?

You dropped ur whatsapp number... I will use it as connection point to pray for God to open your eyes.... Your brain has been washed

Which one is even more? Ordinary 10% you're complaining, so you want people to bring more than that? Now I get you brother.

NtoAkwaIbom:
Folks like you are the reason these pastors scam people.
Go and read your bible...Ananias and Saphira were not paying tithes....the early Christians agreed to sell all they had and pool the money together to live in communion with each other.
So When Ananias and Saphira agreed to it and then reneged on it, the angel of God came in to keep them to what they swore.

And do your pastor share his wealth with you ? Does he share his house and car and food with you ? Then stop mentioning Ananias and Saphira because during that time, everybody in the church lived together, prayed together, ate together, and shared everything equally in communion.


Go and read your bible mbok

Yes it was not tithe but it was a contribution. You can give it any name you like but people made such contributions then and no it wasn't in the old testament.

So you mean they didn't have their separate houses at all but live together? What Annanias and his wife sold was it their house? LOL

Yes they share their wealth. The things they share to the poor and needy didn't come from you.

People that don't know anything about running a business will be asking silly questions

McBeal10:
pls I'd like you to enlighten me on why their university tuitions are so expensive?

Do you have an idea on how much it costs to run a standard primary and secondary school not to talk of universities? Do you know how many times they have tried to increase tuition fee of public universities? Government is currently groaning on what it cost to run its federal universities which even have poor infrastructures. These things cost serious money

NtoAkwaIbom:
TITHE WAS SPECIALLY FOR THE LEVITES, who were specially ordained by God to act as Mediators to his people here on earth.
Jesus christ came in and stood as the mediator so we never have to be slaves no more to tithing

What were Annanias and Sapphira trying to do before they died?

This one is looking for who will quote him

preciousnobel:
Why do you think no 1 is the easiest?

Easiest to make good money.

So many universities in Nigeria now. New private universities being established every year

OtemSapien:
pls never ever compare me with a pastor. I have human sympathy, I don't stage miracles, I don't receive tithes, I give to humanity as much as I can, I tell the truth all the time. So how am I to be compared with the pastors who are scamming my people?

And your evidence of human sympathy is this doctufos truth? How many people have you taken off the street? I put it to you that you're just looking for who to scam

OtemSapien:
With the DOCTUFOS of truth, they are good to go. Cheers.

Sure.. Continue to have your fun cause you not different from the pastors to you're rubbishing

OtemSapien:
I have brought the truth for them. THE DOCTUFOS OF TRUTH.

Buahahaha

Really? You don't have kids you're sponsoring or any family you're building house for even in your village? How will this doctufos buy this wheelchair for those that need?

OtemSapien:
Wow, if only one pastorpreneurs like Adeboye, Kumuyi, Oyedepo, Mouka and Odukoya can spend our tithes in buying this for the lame instead of staging miracles, they'd have been well appreciated. I love developed countries.

What have you done for your village?

Tahra:
Is it right for teachers to punish students by asking them to sit on the floor?

As a teacher,have you ever punished your students by forcing them to sit on the floor?What did they do to warrant such treatment?

I think it's wrong and totally unacceptable and I'd like to know what you think too.

Lalasticlala,what's your opinion on this?

What do you suggest?

Blue3k2:
So who is responsible?

Maybe ministry of finance or CBN

West Life

Benita27:
Are you bringing this up on NL 'cause a girl asked you? Just what if a fellow guy had asked of the same favour, will you be here trying to shame him?. FYI, I've given a girl airtime once. One I didn't know sef. My point is; if you have give her, and if you don't, let her know. It's not by force.

SMH

Is it for only girls? How do I sell mine please?

Advice on what exactly?

airmark:


I didn't know it pained these guys like this. They can only shut down our thread when next they host chelsea at old trashford. They must win with unreplied goal(s) and the match must be on a weekend to international break week.

When huddersfield defeated them, did you see chelsea fans under the canopy, the next day, partying? I know they won't act childishly.

The rules of engagement have changed, sorry you didn't get the memo. Now we party hard for every goal you concede since we are all being childish

Moranc:
Don't get me wrong I never said he want me to use my money for the laptop repair he just want me to pressurize the people he bought the laptop from knowing fully well they can't do anything about it but I think he want me to stop working without paying me. that's why his using the laptop issue to frustrate me

If you don't see a future of yourself here you can have him arrested then. It's obvious he just wants you to be frustrated so its better you just resign and get him arrested.

Moranc:
that should be around 60,000 to 65,000

For your boss to insist that you bear the cost, something must be missing from your narration. Nobody just wakes up and decides to do this
