Q: What is the position of Christianity on tithing because some argue that it doesn’t have a place in Christianity?

A: I don’t have an opinion. I live by the book. I’ll tell you what is in the book. The first man to pay tithe was Abraham, when he met Melchizedek. And when he gave that tithe, the book of Hebrews says even Levi, who became a priest later, paid tithe while he was still in the loins of his father, Abraham. So, there was tithe before the law. There was tithe during the law. And Christ Jesus now came and said, this you ought to do, but you neglect the weightier matters of the law. This you ought to do and the other you do not neglect. If you are asking what is the agreed position in the New Testament, listen to Paul in I Corinthians Chapter 16, verse 1. At least I’m not reading from the Old Testament. I can tell you by the grace of God that at the Latter Rain Assembly, you can come and watch us, stay for about five or six weeks, you will not hear such a thing mentioned. You will know a church by the time you worship there for six or seven weeks.

We encourage our people because even the running of the place requires support of those who are worshipping there. Do you belong to any club or organisation? To join Ikoyi Club 1938, there are fees. It is the abuse that is the problem because it must come from your heart. Melchizedek did not demand tithe from Abraham. It was what Abraham did willingly. My opinion is that let every man be persuaded in his own heart. If it is not honour, then it is robbery. What the Bible says is honour the Lord with your susbstance and the first fruits of your increase so that your barns may be full. It has to be honour. It is the same word you use for your parents. The first time I gave my mother an allowance was when I was a Youth Corper. I gave her N50 out of my N200 monthly allowance because I was the only one she depended on. And from that year till today, my mother’s monthly allowance has increased, although I won’t tell you how much she gets now. She was 100 in October. I lost my father when I was two years old. So God allowed my mother to stay to see me through. Would I neglect my mother? So also will I not neglect the God who is the source of everything I have. But it has to be a matter of honour. There are three priesthoods in the Bible. The priesthood of Midian, the Levitical priesthood and the Melchizedek priesthood.

This is what is causing the problem. The priesthood of Midian is that of Jethro, the father in-law of Moses. It deals with strategies, administration and dedication of duties. It teaches you how to delegate so that you are not overworked. It does not raise sons, it raises workers. So in such ministries where Jethro principle is what they’re following, you’ll be hearing workers, workers, workers, instead of raising sons of God.

Leviticus priesthood is mainly about offering. And remember they were in the wilderness; no supermarket, no work and they didn’t go anywhere. There was nowhere to spend all the money they took from Egypt. So, it’s offering in the morning, offering at night and offering in the evening. When you find a ministry whose major emphasis is bring, bring, give, give, its the Levitical priesthood. They are still in the wilderness. But we have moved out of the wilderness. The priesthood of our Lord Jesus Christ Christ, according to Hebrew 6, 7 up to 8, is after the order of Melchizedek who was already a king before he met Abraham. He did not need the offering of Abraham to be king. So those who are practising Melchizedek priesthood do not depend on their congregation. They don’t wait because they are lazy for them to go and work and bring resources to them. They also labour with their own hands to have resources and when the church contributes, they probably contribute more. You can find out these things. So it depends on which priesthood is being practised.

[b]Tithes are to be used to take care of widows, the helpless, and services in the house of God. Why should they come to you to say we want to pay NEPA bills, we want to pay church staff? People that are working in the ministry have to be paid and the organisation has to be run. But it’s never compulsory. If anybody tells you if you don’t pay tithe you will remain tight, greed in his heart is influencing that because Christ has become the cross for us. For it is written: ‘Cursed is anyone that hangs on the tree that the blessing of Abraham now come upon the Gentile’ If it is from your heart, like it was with Abraham, it will bring blessings. But if it is teleguided, it is no longer spirit-led and does not activate anything in heaven. I think what is causing it is that we embark on projects God did not give to us and put ourselves under financial pressure, which we transmit to people. Do I pay tithe? Definitely. But I don’t make it a law for everybody. I do from my earnings because I don’t depend on church offerings. My hands, like Paul’s, provided for my necessities. I pay my tax like any other citizen of this country. I pay from my legitimate earnings. If I have to wait for them to give on Sundays before I send my children to school and eat, then something is wrong. If this church folds up, I cannot live anymore. And in a depressed economy, so many churches have opened up that are not at the instance of the Holy Spirit.[/b]

Nice one though, my eyes too wide for stuffs like this hehehehe, what i do is to make sure i have enough margin to add more when the opportunity shows.

naijababe:
It's called discipline and money management darling 

I see, except you were in the wrong position, i don't see why you should have left 200pips you knew was coming slip without doing anything about it.

WeMaStEr:
make una no vex for my q. what is this boko haram them problem? wetin themthey fight for? or them just want to dey kill ppl? or is this a sign of end of the world? i need answers if any,

THEY SAID THEY WANT 100% SHARIA LAW PRACTISED ALL OVER THE NORTHERN STATES, THE GOVERNORS SHOULD BE SWORN IN AND ALSO BE ACCOUNTABLE TO SHARIA

THEY ALSO WANT MOST OF THE NORTHERN PAST GOVERNORS BE TRIALED SHARIA STYLE.

They have more sha, e.g they want all the northern governors to denounce Nigerian style democracy and that they all should also apologize.
hope you know what that means? steal = get short sleeves instanter.

^^^^

Hmmmm, all the money, are you in a losing position that you decided to let 200 pips pass you by?

For those who kept saying MEND was better than Boko Haram

Kindly tell me, what is the difference between them?

Nigerian militants 'violation women'
Niger Delta militants
Gangs of jobless youth join gangs in the Niger Delta to make money

A victim of a horrific attack in Nigeria's Niger Delta has described how gunmen violated pregnant women hijacked from two passenger boats.

The gunmen took at least five women from the boats to a camp deep in the creeks of the swampy oil region and brutally violated them, the military said.

The women were forced to lie down on the ground while the gunmen sang and danced around them, one victim said.

It is the first time that a Delta attack like this has been made public.

Two of the women were pregnant, a military spokesman said.

A security source says one of the women has since died of her injuries but this has not been independently confirmed.


They were ferocious and bloody, they took us away, and we heard they were taking us to their camp - when I heard that I thought I'd never come back
30-year-old violation victim
The attack happened on Saturday after two passenger boats were hijacked on their way from Bonny Island to Port Harcourt the capital of Rivers State.

"They told us not to lift up our eyes. I began crying to God," a 30-year-old woman told the BBC.

Begged

The attackers put guns against the heads of the men in the boat and forced them to jump into the water.

Some begged the gunmen to drop them off on land as they couldn't swim.

Five of the passengers forced into the water are unaccounted for, a military spokesman said.

"They were ferocious and bloody, they took us away, and we heard they were taking us to their camp - when I heard that I thought I'd never come back," the woman told the BBC at the headquarters of the Joint Military Taskforce in charge of security in the Delta.

The men forced them onto the floor and danced around them before gang-Desecrating them, she said.

Other women were taken to another camp where they were violated, according to military spokesman Lt Col Sagir Musa.

He said he did not know exactly how many women were violated by the gunmen, only that five had sought medical treatment after the attack on Saturday.

They refused to give details about how the women were rescued.

Kidnapping, robbery, hijacking and violation are common in Nigeria's Niger Delta where years of poor government has led to a collapse in the rule of law.

But this attack is believed to be the first time so many women have been kidnapped and systematically violated after a passenger boat hijack.

Numerous armed groups roam the maze of mangrove swaps and creeks.

Jobless youths join the militant groups looking for money from kidnapping, extortion from multinational oil companies and oil theft.

Some like the Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (Mend), a loose affiliation of militant gang leaders, claim they are fighting for a better deal from Nigeria's oil for the inhabitants of the Delta.

But analysts say most groups doing the kidnapping and robbing are not motivated by any political struggle, and are actually criminal gangs, known as "cults" who act as hired muscle for politicians, traditional leaders and oil thieves.

Militants violation 28 female NYSC members Undecided Undecided Undecided Undecided Undecided

Postby BigBrother on Sat Oct 25, 2008 2:49 pm
This is quite despicable. I can't imagine completing your studies in the university and then exposing yourself to severe risks because of some outdated government scheme. Unfortunately we cannot do anything about it as the government lacks the will power to admit the irrelevance of the scheme now. Imagine the scar on these 28 young ladies for the rest of their lives? :cry:

Some unidentified gunmen suspected to be militants on Thursday violated 28 female youth corps members in Abonnema, a town in Akuku Toru Local Government Area of Rivers State.
A source said the militants invaded the residence of the corps members, who were posted to the town on primary assignment, and rounded up the ladies. He said the suspected militants went into every flat, Desecrating the women at gunpoint after which they fled through the waterfront. He noted that Abonnema residents had been constantly terrorised by gangsters who relocated to the area after they were sacked from some of their locations in the creeks.
He said, “These boys are not fighting the Niger Delta cause. How can they fight the Niger Delta cause, when they continue to terrorise the people they are supposed to fight for? Abonnema has become a war front and people are fleeing their homes. Now, they violation women and threaten elders. They invaded homes of some female corps members and violated them at gunpoint.”

Militants violation 28 female youth corps members
This is the kind of madness I'm talking about existing in Nigerians. What's the correlation between corp members and fighting for resource control. I feel so heartbroken for the unfortunate corp members.


Militants kill two policemen, kidnap three EPCL managers Undecided Undecided Undecided Undecided Undecided

Daring Niger Delta militants on Friday stormed the residence of Indians working for the Eleme Petrochemical Company and took away eight persons to an unknown destination.

The militants, according to police sources, put up a fierce gun battle with security agents guarding the premises and killed two policemen before disappearing with their victims.

Eyewitnesses said the incident, which occurred around 2am, shook the residents of Elelenwo, near the police station, which the militants bombed on April 14, 2007 and killed a policeman. Friday’s victims included three top managers of the EPCL, three women and their two children, who were forced out of their homes.

Rivers State Deputy Commissioner of Police, Mr. Bassey Inyang, confirmed the attack in a telephone interview with our correspondent and said that investigations into the matter had begun.

The two Indians, who were seized from the same compound by militants on May 19, 2007, are yet to be freed despite pleas by the workers of the Indorama EPCL.

The militants stormed the residence and detonated bundles of dynamite on the gate before moving in to abduct the two management Indian workers of the company. The were about to kidnap more when soldiers drawn from the Joint Task Force arrived and engaged them in a gun fight.

The latest kidnap forced the workers of the company to embark on a street protest to press for the release of the foreigners. The Chairman of the Workers Association, Mr. Kriss Natti, said they were worried by the latest attack on the company’s management staff.

Natti said that the motive of the attack was unclear since the new management of he company had brought back the dead company to life and created employment for the people of the Niger Delta. No fewer than 200 oil workers have so far been kidnapped and freed since 2006.

Also on Friday, the intervention of community elders in Ogoniland in Rivers State helped oil prices slip back below $68 a barrel as supply concerns eased. BBC Online reports that protesters, who were occupying a major export pipeline in Niger Delta, were expelled by the elders, allowing valves to reopen and for crude oil to flow.


Also read up on this and see greed and arms dealing which should ordinarily destroy a nation.That amount of arms and money fighting/Arms trade is even worst.Because today they have introduce militancy and small arms insurgency. Undecided They have explosives and there attacks in delta,Bayelsa,Rivers claimed innocent lives.At the pick of Ateke and Dokubo conflicts if i remember well communities were attacked with RPGs and dynamite over suspicion they accommodate particular elements of a group.
http:///interview/asari-dokubo-me-henry-okahjomo-gbomo-judith-asuni-and-niger-delta-insurgency


Than grade criminality and insurgence our government should be known rather for its zero tolerance to it.So that a clear message is sent to wanna be.Eg Boko harm,MASSOB Grin Grin Grin Grin That it will not be tolerated and will be crushed instantly.Trying to justify the actions of MEND simply says alot about our ethnic mind set.MEND are criminals period.Why? Because the Nigeria law prohibits possession of illegal fire arms,attacking people and law enforcement agents,Blowing up infrastructure and people,civil disobedience,sabotage,assault,Killing,kidnapping,unlawful assembly,unlaw association to an criminal group,violation,robbery,treason,conspiracy to attack the government/citizens and above all terrorism.All this and alot more were various actions carried out by ND militants or MEND.
So why shelf the law?Rather than for apprehension of people to be asked questions and trials to suggest punishment for wrong deeds.They get rewarded.Why?Today another(Boko haram) has come again with its own reasons.It will only get worst.Not because of sentiments.I feel cheated being a law abiding citizen honestly.You work and pay taxes.You obey fundamental laws of the land and yet get harass.While criminality gets rewarded !!!

Coutesy Haka nai

Nigerian militant? does Nigeria have a particular militant?

For those close to the so called militant, help me ask them, how do you use bomb to threaten a suicide bomber?

If i am ready to bomb myself to kill alot at once, how then do you think you can threaten me with bombing?

Abi Italy and Spain plus France don steal Libya oil?

1.428X should hold o

I no wan throwaway 100 pips today, maybe 50 okay

Hmmm, this market just dey dribble, Its like i need to activate my hedging style again o until EU and GU stabilizes.

^^^^

But you were too fast, C'mon, like you said 50.00 is not that much, why then did you bring this to the public?

embarrassing a friend for 50.00 which i guess is less than $35 is really bad and i hope you find it in your heart to see the errors you made by apologizing to her.

^^^^

And how's this a lie? if 2 very popular citizen of a state contesting for the same position only pulled 600,000 votes in total, how in the world did an outsider in the person of jonathan pull 1.1 million votes?

Did 500,000 people die within 1 week or they moved out of Imo state within 1 week?

@naijababe

I was only asking him questions and pointed out some "errors" from the way he made calls, he obviously think i am in to compete with him or make him feel good or bad about his trading style, you can see that from the way him and some people comment on this thread.

@Bidemi, the money you make won't be given to me nor mine be given to you, so why do you always take comments as mockery and insults instead of picking things you need from them while ignoring the ones you don't agree with?

@topic

I think we are obviously going to be seeing a "LONG" down on both EU and GU, but tomorrow's news is likely to influence these moves.

EU and GU, nice, GU doing well, EU why u dey show?

So work continues for the 9:5 ghost workers?
