■ Hahaha, U see this fool that's just here to argue without any knowledge of the scripture

So, never mind that I clearly pointed out where the commandment comes from, you would rather blindly believe that in your blatant ignorance of this fact, you know scripture?

WOW... Religion and mindfuckery do indeed go hand in hand.

PUNANI01:
I can relate! Those attacking this man of God should take am easy ooh!

You can relate? When did the magic stop?

Mandesz:
■ Congrats! They're lies to even when Jesus was mentioned in the Quran many times and even predicted his coming. Bible never mentioned Mohammed once! That's to tell u the uselessness of the prophet.

I am sorry, what? Are you on drugs or something? Are you probably logging in from within a mental health asylum?

caleboxylic:
■ Just imagine. So, you are trying to deceive the gullible ones into paying tithe. My friend, preach salvation and leave tithing alone. God is not hungry.

So even after this deception which should pretty much blow the scam wide open on him being a deceiver and nothing more, you would sit back to listen to the same man lie to you about God and salvation? Wetin dey do una abeg!

RebirthPhoenix:
■ Firstly, You are mistaken morals, ethics, norms and values as a yardstick for the measurement of good,,,,it is not!
Secondly, I am not religious (atal), as a consequence, I still have my thinking faculty and common sense intact.
Maybe if you think with your own brain and not be so gullible, you would mature to be a good person(with ot without religion)

Here's a simple question for you then. What makes a person good?

Diligence:
■ One's personal testimonies are incontrovertible! In fact, when you argue, you become absolutely stupid, as in, on what foundation is your crassly stupid argument?

Tell that to the many occupants of mental health asylums world over.

Mandesz:
■ That's a mere say u don't know it all. That believe has made u so poor that u remain on a spot.

Stop rambling! I know one thing for sure which is that God doesn't lie which means what you were taught are of lies.

Taiwojon:
■ Well you can continue then I hope you see what you are looking for! Jesus save

I am not looking for anything at all. God of Israel and Jesus Christ are absolutely nothing of your religious hogwash!

MysteryofLight:
■ When a man has evidence, it is not at the mercy of one who argues.”

Go mental health asylum, you go find numerous there who equally had evidence but nothing to show for it. This man here lied to you yet you claim it is evidence. Continue!

donbenie:
Moral of the story.. Pay your tithe and hunger will never be your portion..

Tell that gobbledegook to the 100s of millions of impoverished Christian tithers the world over.

Kukutente23:
Why give it away then? And what happened to the person who got it? Did the rice finish in their house

Him go lie to you say because that one chop am and no return am, the rice finish immediately.

SpecialAdviser:
■ There is a reason I'm a Catholic

The Catholic lie is from even its very foundation, so don't even believe you are any better than these ones. Christianity as you have it today is built on top of that very same foundation.

UncleBone:
■ Can't we talk about salvation for once? Everytime Tithe Tithe Tithe. Teach us how to love one another as commanded by God.

Are you sure you are alright at all? A man tells you this sort of lies yet you will sit back and have him talk of salvation to you? You no get shame?

incogni2o:
Nothing Faith cannot do. Even Herbalists know. How much more a true child of God. May God increase our Faith

So long as you are referring to the God of the herbalists, it's OK!

nlfpmod:
∆According to him, after giving out a portion of the rice as tithe, they continued consuming the remaining, but it kept increasing. He stated that the development scared his wife, who gave out the remaining rice in the bag.
He said, “When my wife and I got married, she was tithing food. She would remove one-tenth of the food and give it out. One day, we had rice that did not finish. The more we took out of it, the more it increased.
“She became afraid at the end and dashed out the remaining. ‘What kind of food is this that would not finish’, she exclaimed.”

Liars and Scam artists!

Emeka71:
Preach goodness.

Stop rambling! He never sent anyone out to preach "goodness". Whoever told you that lie does not know Jesus Christ. Recall that Jesus Christ made clear that He is not good. How can you claim to preach 'goodness' in the name of one who said He is not good?

donmik:
■ The summary of His command remains to love God above all (fear).
■ And to love your neighbours as yourself

1. There is no summary of His commands in Jesus Christ or He wouldn't be regarded as a path to redemption for men.

2. This is also a lie! The commandment you quote here is instead contained in the Old Law of Moses - Leviticus 19 vs 18 - and not Jesus Christ, the New Law.

sulem4u:
Itemize the commandments just as we know the 10 commandments of Moses...

Why don't you do it for us instead?

Nukilia:
■ Are Africans being deceived by the European religion conjecture? They brought the Bible to us but took our land in return. They made their country like heaven but they delude us to wait for an heaven in the sky. Have we been conned?

You conned your own selves by refusing to in fact read the book you had in your hand to learn fact from fiction as far as what is contained in the book and the stories you were fed.

Mandesz:
Yes. I remember we're thought this in my CRK in jss2 with the topic THE RESURRECTION OF JESUS CHRIST. I can read it by heart since then because it's a memory verse for all the class.

All you were taught were a bunch of lies cobbled up from religious theories !

Hanndye:
You seem here to be speaking from both sides of you mouth.
Now what do you say about tithe?

The issue is very simple for even you to reason out for yourself. According to Jesus Christ, those who love Him and are loved by Him are those who obey His teachings and commandments.

15 “If you love me, you will do what I command.
16 I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Helper[a] to be with you forever.
17 The Helper is the Spirit of truth. The people of the world cannot accept him, because they don’t see him or know him. But you know him. He lives with you, and he will be in you.
18 “I will not leave you all alone like orphans. I will come back to you.
19 In a very short time the people in the world will not see me anymore. But you will see me. You will live because I live.
20 On that day you will know that I am in the Father. You will know that you are in me and I am in you.
21 Those who really love me are the ones who not only know my commands but also obey them. My Father will love such people, and I will love them. I will make myself known to them.”
22 Then Judas (not Judas Iscariot) said, “Lord, how will you make yourself known to us, but not to the world?”
23 Jesus answered, “All who love me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them. My Father and I will come to them and live with them.
24 But anyone who does not love me does not obey my teaching. This teaching that you hear is not really mine. It is from my Father who sent me. - John 14 vs 15 - 24

The very same message above is found in the following places as well - John 15 vs 7 - 15 & John 8 vs 31 - 44.

Now tell us,
▶ Where in all of His Gospels did Jesus Christ command you to bring Tithes and offerings — both of them of a system defined instead in the Old Law of Moses — using His name?
▶ Where in the Gospels did Jesus Christ command His followers to collect Tithes and offerings — both of them of a system defined instead in the Old Law of Moses — using His Name?

Taiwojon:
■ OK aunty Can you kindly leave me alone! After all I wasn't talking to you

So you can continue to spew lies that you hide behind the mentions of God and Jesus Christ? Sorry, I can't do that!

Elolam87:
Love one another

Wrong!

In the same context from which you lifted that statement, Jesus Christ explained that the only ones He loved were those amongst them who continuously submitted to and obeyed His teachings and commandments - those holy among them. Surely, you realize that it is only those who are holy by the Law that is Jesus Christ — loved by Him — that can obey that command which you quoted.

ADO2004:

Johel:
■ LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOURS AS YOU LOVE YOURSELF

That is a lie!

See Leviticus 19 vs 18 for answers. Jesus Christ did not give His followers that commandment. Rather, Moses is the one who gave that commandment to the Nation of Israel in the Land of Canaan.

temmyyem:
■ Stop misrepresenting the Son of the Most High (Yahusha). He is a black man.

What does it matter the color of His skin if His words remain meaningless to you even at that?

KingLennon:
The great comission. But these days, many preachers win souls for themselves and not God. There's a lot of exploitation going on in the body of christ

Your preachers have ALWAYS been in it to win souls for themselves... that is what religion has been about since even the time when the Judeans decided to adopt Judaism from back in Babylon. And we know very well that Christianity was modelled after Judaism, the very religion Jesus Christ condemned during His time on earth.

RebirthPhoenix:
Just be a good person that's the most important above all commandments

Rubbish!

Define what it means to be a "good" person, and you realize how that is silly reasoning on the part of those who cling to such a delusion. A "good" person in southern Nigeria is not necessarily a "good" person in Northern Nigeria. The idea of what constitutes good changes depending on the climes you find yourself in, so what makes you think that just being a good person makes sense as far as God is concerned?

Nairalander248:
Go and preach to the world...

Preach what though? Jesus Christ never sent His followers into the world to preach the Laws of Moses, rather He sent them to teach others His own teachings and commandments, the Law of Jesus Christ aka the Gospel which contains approximately 100 teachings and commandments, none of which aligns directly or indirectly with the Law of Moses before it.

Originalsly:
■ Abeg .... correct me if I'm wrong. How can sooo many "Christians " in this forum so passionately believe present day Israel is God's Chosen? How dumb can you be to say aloud that God chose a people that don't believe in His existence above people that do? ... and will support them to persecute people that do believe in Him?
■ FYI ... Christians are persecuted in Israel. Is this not like saying God is a fool?... isn't this like blasphemy? Is there any difference in the immoral lifestyle of Biblical Sodom and Gomorrah and the lifestyle of present day Israel?... where homosexuality is the norm? God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah because of it but today He is defending it? Is this not like saying God is a hypocrite? ... isn't this like blasphemy? One would expect these very Christians to be trooping out to Israel ... but they don't... why? ... why pastors et al avoid it like the plague?... or only visit like a thief in the night? Christians defenders of Israel... can you please explain?

I am afraid I too have to say that this is a rather lame approach to attacking the blind support that Christians have for the state of Isreal that exists today, and this has a lot to do with what is in fact written of in Scripture of the other Nation of Israel which was constituted by the God of Israel.

▶ God of Israel chose the people of Israel as His inheritance in the land of men not because the people themselves acknowledged or obeyed Him but merely because their fathers — Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob— obeyed His commandments. God of Israel was well aware that the people of Israel, after He led them into the promised land would abandon Him to seek after another God but that didn't impact His choice nor did it stop Him from standing as their God until even after He destroyed the Nation He created — Israel and Judah— and scattered the people to the ends of the world. Yes, to this day, every Israelites— who carries the blood of Jacob — is still watched over by the God of Israel even thousands of years after being scattered and cursed by Him.
▶ Granted the state of Israel that exists today was constituted by the hands of men and not by the God of Israel, but that does not change the relationship that exists between the God of Israel and the people of Israel — those who bear the blood of Jacob — living in even that Land.

2. Christianity has absolutely nothing to do with the God of Israel though. This, again, since God of Israel made clear that His only inheritance in the land of men is the people of Israel — individuals who have the blood of Jacob running through their veins. Even His Son Jesus Christ made it abundantly clear that He was sent only to the Lost sheep of Israel, the Israelites who had been scattered and cursed by the God of Israel - Matthew 7 vs 6 & John 3 vs 14- 18 & Matthew 15 vs 21 - 28. So, what the Christians do they do of their own and not of Scripture or the God of Scripture.

Docodes:
■ who created hell for punishment also created paradise for enjoyment. GOD ISNT LIMITED TO GOOD ONLY. na why people get disappointed cos they expect only good.

Why is God to blame for the ignorance of some humans though?

God has never given humans the impression that He is only responsible for that which they individually perceive as good in this world — not at all. The book of Scripture from which you lifted your one verse, a book more than 1000 years strong, clearly indicates that from the beginning God has been the controller, and power, maneuvering all that is good and all that is evil in the land. So, isn't it stack ignorance to pretend that somehow God is the side of your very own myopic reasoning as opposed to that which is established of Him from even thousands of years before your conceiption?

IS HE SUPPOSED TO PAY HIS TITHE FROM THE BASIC SALARY OR FROM THE TOTAL AMOUNT?
NOTE: OTHER DEDUCTIONS ARE NOT RELEVANT TO ADD.

He should give it all. After, his gods of men has numerous desires and material yearnings to achieve. No amount is too much but make sure not to give him too little and risk falling out of favor with him and his own gods.
