All you listed are correct.
I hope the security agencies will be able to do the needful with all sincerity

Underwept:

I was thinking the same thing. But we cannot be too sure.

Mosba:

It says tithing was a lesser even in the law, does that mean it has been abolished? Though it is has been elevated to one of the most important things in christianity but it still has to do with individual decision.

Again, I will repeat:
1. It says the pharisees could tithe. Under the law of Moses and the Levitical Priesthood which was still in effect, they were supposed to tithe. But the levitical priesthood ended when Jesus died on the cross. That is why there was no record of tithing with the church in the acts of the apostles or the epistles
The verse does not say you or every Christian should tithe. It wasnt an instruction or command to go and tithe. He was reprimanding the pharisees for paying tithes while they ignored more important things. As at the time Jesus said it, tithing was still in effect in Isreal. The Jews were expected to tithe under the levitical preisthood. I think that should be clear enough

Lingudy:
Technically,it says all laws need to be followed. Lesser or no lesser. It is called hypocrisy to practice one without the other.

Well put then, I suggest you read the entire Old Testament too and then do OBEY ALL THE LAWS there, come back to this thread, and receive an award for that!

Lingudy:
Below is a verse in the new testament highlighted where Jesus acknowledges the importance of tithing.
If you don't want to tithe no one is forcing you but leave others that want to do so after all its their money and not yours.
Matthew 23:23
Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You give a tenth of your spices—mint, dill and cumin. But you have neglected the more important matters of the law—justice, mercy and faithfulness. You should have practiced the latter, without neglecting the former.

Matthew 23:23 is clear:
1. It says the pharisees could tithe. Under the law of Moses and the Levitical Priesthood which was still in effect, they were supposed to tithe. But the levitical priesthood ended when Jesus died on the cross. That is why there was no record of tithing with the church in the acts of the apostles or the epistles
2. It says tithing was a lesser matter even in the law and was not as important as justice, mercy, and faith. Today, tithing has been elevated to one of the most important things in Christianity

LOL.
Read that passage again!
It isn't endorsing tithing.
It's actually condemning a group for tithing and then failing to do important things!

Lingudy:
Tithing is an Old Testament concept. YES. The tithe was a requirement of the Law in which the Israelites were to give 10 percent of the crops they grew and the livestock they raised to the tabernacle/temple
- see Leviticus 27:30; Numbers 18:26; Deuteronomy 14:24; 2 Chronicles 31:5.
In fact, the Old Testament Law required multiple tithes—one for the Levites, one for the use of the temple and the feasts, and one for the poor of the land—which would have pushed the total to around 23.3 percent.
Some understand the Old Testament tithe as a method of taxation to provide for the needs of the priests and Levites in the sacrificial system.

The New Testament nowhere commands, or even recommends, that Christians submit to a legalistic tithe system. The New Testament nowhere designates a percentage of income a person should set aside, but only says gifts should be “in keeping with income”. 1 Corinthians 16:2. Some in the Christian church have taken the 10 percent figure from the Old Testament tithe and applied it as a “recommended minimum” for Christians in their giving.

At the time, it seemed the answer to the debts and financial woes of churches whose church members gave indiscriminately. Today storehouse tithing is a deep-rooted tradition that is promoted on a regular basis by clergy men that misuse the context of Malachi 3:8-11.
Pastors insist that every church member is obliged (as a matter of righteousness) to pay 10% of his or her gross income.
In addition to the tithe that church members give, most churches teach that a, “freewill offering,” over and above the 10% tithe should be given to again to the church or any charitable cause, with the stipulation that his or her “local church” is always to receive the “tithe.”

The modern practice of church tithing is not supported by the teachings of scripture.
Church tithing began in the late nineteenth century when a Wesleyan Church in Cincinnati hosted multiple fund-raising events to erase its enormous debt.Fledgling on the brink of bankruptcy and devoid of options, a layman came up with the idea of, “storehouse tithing.”
It was an instant success and soon the news spread like wildfire throughout Christendom and the practice of storehouse tithing caught on.

Lingudy:
MALACHI 3:10 (New International Version):
"Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this," says the LORD Almighty, "and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that there will not be room enough to store it".

And so?? I said this is an old thing and CHRISTIANS are no longer under any old law to pay tithes as in the old testament. Jesus came to the world and he said 'its finished '

Lingudy:
Who brainwashed you that it's an old thing? Is that part of giving tithe no longer found in the bible? SMH

I guessed you have been brainwashed instead. What's the importance of tithe in this contemporary time. You need to wise up. I don't mean you should not give or support church projects.

Lingudy:
Tithe is godly, and everyone must give tithes as commanded by God. Pastors and church leaders inclusive.

Broski, not everyone. Giving of tithe is an old thing and we are no longer under any obligation to pay tithes.

Nice, quite informative.

Absolutely,you can bro.

Vinnie2000:
How about the Hijab Issue in Osun or is it Ekiti state.😒

What you see is PRETENTIOUS LOVE existing. 😏

Do you think Osibanjo, Adeboye, Oyedepo, Mike Bamiloye, etc will allow their sons or daughter to marry a Kabiru, Kafayat, Ganiyat, etc?😏😒

Or will this MURIC man will allow his daughter marry a Christian Bamidele or Femi?😕🤨

They are just Living in PRETENCE!

You and I knows the osun issue was escalated by muric! This doesn't happen before why now?
Ask around sir, Yorubas do marry themselves irrespective of their religion. Believe me. They don't just care, so far the love is there.
With this people you mentioned, you're just specific but generally this is never an issue.
But this my claim may not be as strong as before because of this religion sentiment 'hurricane' presently in Yoruba land.

Jealosy

Mtcheww, and electricity bill is still high

And the citizens should continue to suffer?
Idan!

Vinnie2000:
Hehehe.

Crocodile and Alligator may claim Oneness
BUT
Crocodile is crocodile and Alligator, Alligator-Ola Rotimi in The Gods are not Blame. 😏🙂🙂

I agreed with you but have you ever heard them fighting each other in the name of religion?

How can we apply please

XAUBulls:
They do. Itsekiri is closer to Ijebu and Ilaje dialects.

The word basket and numbers 1 to 10 in Yoruba and Itsekiri are the same for instance.

Wow. Wonderful. History doesn't lie! Never know of this
