even if we continue with the practice of the old testament law of tithing after the death of Jesus. No pastor equate levite, hence, not qualified to collect it.
infact, according to the law of tithing, it belong to four group: stranger, widow, orphan and levite. it is not supposed to be done in monetary form and not done every week.
but unfortunately, Nigerians are gullible.

I realized that we are so gullible in this part of the world. some pple believe their G.O than Jesus Christ and the apostles. sometin that our Jesus and the apostles never practised.
James 1:27 defined pure religion which exclude tithe. [/b]James 1:27 KJV
Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.

[b] anytin a Christian cannot trace to Jesus who is the author and finisher of our faith and the apostle who are his direct followers shud not be encouraged.

Some movie directors have been accused of taking advantage of a woman without fulfilling their promises to her.

Cherry Obi accused some faceless movie directors of seeing her undies without fulfilling their promises

A Nigerian woman has taken to Facebook to lash out at some unidentified movie directors and pageantry organizers she accused of seeing her undies without fulfilling their promises.


The woman identified as Cherry Obi wrote: "...To d movie directors and pageantry organizers that saw my undies without fulfilling their promises. This November shall never be WELL with you ALL."

However, after reading the post, some people attacked the woman wondering why she allowed the movie directors see her undies for an undisclosed 'promise'.

Christianity EtcRe: Tithing : A Scriptural Analysis. by lonikit: 6:57am On Nov 27, 2017
connectikut89:
My attempt is to prove some of your statements wrong, of course by quoting the bible in the RIGHT context, to the glory of God our Father.


This is where you started to get it wrong. Tithing is NEITHER a Christian principle NOR a Christian concept. It is a JEWISH principle whether Abrahamic or Levitical. So if we are to go by your argument, only the Jews should discuss tithes.


These two verses you quoted here are not within the context of this discussion. In 1Corinthians 2:1-15, Paul was talking about the importance of having the Spirit of God (The Holy Spirit), so as to understand God's secret wisdom (v7). He's saying that the rulers of that age - including the Pharisees and Saducees who understand tithing more than you do - did not have the wisdom we have through the Holy Spirit, for if they had, they would not have crucified our Lord Jesus (v8), but that God has revealed it to us by his Spirit (v10). I would love to go further but let's stay on tithes please.


Here we go again. For the umpteenth time, Pastors are not Levitical Priests but if you say they are just priests, you are right. But aren't we who are not pastors also priests? Peter says it in 1Peter 2:9. John also corroborates it in Revelations 1:6 & 5:10. So no Christian is left out of this heavenly calling by the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, Jesus Christ (Hebrews 3:1)


You are wrong again bro. Whyyy? The perfect rebuttal for this is in 2Thessalonians 3:6-15.
"For you yourselves know how you ought to follow us, for we were not disorderly among you; nor did we eat anyone’s bread free of charge, but worked with labor and toil night and day, that we might not be a burden to any of you, not because we do not have authority, but to make ourselves an example of how you should follow us. For even when we were with you, we commanded you this: If anyone will not work, neither shall he eat. For we hear that there are some who walk among you in a disorderly manner, not working at all, but are busybodies." Tell your Pastor to go and get a job so that he won't be a burden to you.


Tithes was never money to be paid. Albeit there was money/currency (Numbers 3:47-50) during the time of Moses, God was specific about what tithe he wanted. "...tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land or of the fruit of the tree, is the Lord’s. It is holy to the Lord...tithe of the herd or the flock, of whatever passes under the rod, the tenth one shall be holy to the Lord. Leviticus 27:30‭, ‬32 NKJV


First of all, Levitical tithing is a law, just like the Sabbath, Pentecost, Passover all all the other ordinances and customs in the Old Testament.
Now let us deal with the famous Matthew 23:23. Jesus could not stop the Israelites from giving tithes yet because, he had not died. His blood was needed to be offered once and for all so that, the law could be changed.
Let us read Luke 5:13‭-‬14 NKJV "Then He(Jesus) put out His hand and touched him, saying, “I am willing; be cleansed.” Immediately the leprosy left him. And He charged him to tell no one, “But go and show yourself to the priest, and make an offering for your cleansing, as a testimony to them, just as Moses commanded.” " This is Jesus recognizing and recommending a law of Moses in the book of Leviticus 13:1-3 & 14:2-32 to a man He just healed. Please tell me this is still relevant today. You guys never fail to amaze me with your cherry picking of the parts of the Bible that favour you.


Quick question for you. Is a law binding or voluntary? You shall not kill. Does it mean you can either kill or not kill? Tithing is a commandment, it was a commandment in the law to give it, it wasn't freewill. But Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law (Galatians 3:13), so we now give the Christian way, which is as a man purposeth in his heart (2 Corinthians 9:7), not according to a formula, not to Pastors, but for the ministry and those who lack.

The rest of what you wrote is just a bunch of gobbledegook.

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.
u nailed it sir.
Christianity EtcRe: Tithing : A Scriptural Analysis. by lonikit: 9:54am On Nov 26, 2017
petra1:
Did the Bible say he didn’t ? Christ endorsed tithing .

Matthew 23:23
. . . You should tithe, yes, but do not neglect the more important things.




1 Corinthians 9:13-14
Do ye not know that they which minister about holy things live of the things of the temple? and they which wait at the altar are partakers with the altar? Even so hath the Lord ordained that they which preach the gospel should live of the gospel.




Christ didn’t condemn homosexuality
Christ didn’t condemn incest.

Does it mean they can be legalize now?
1 cor. u quoted has no correlation with the concept. who was Jesus talking to in that place u quoted sirhuh followers of Christ or the teachers of the law.huh are we stil practising Judaism or Christianity??
Christianity EtcRe: Tithing : A Scriptural Analysis. by lonikit: 9:24am On Nov 26, 2017
the fact here that u may not beliv is that tithe in the bible was not in monetary form and the purpose is for the levite to have food to eat since he didnt work and he did not have inheritance as well.
Numbers 18:24 KJV
But the tithes of the children of Israel, which they offer as an heave offering unto the Lord , I have given to the Levites to inherit: therefore I have said unto them, Among the children of Israel they shall have no inheritance.

Deuteronomy 26:12 KJV
When thou hast made an end of tithing all the tithes of thine increase the third year, which is the year of tithing, and hast given it unto the Levite, the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow, that they may eat within thy gates, and be filled;

offering is diff from tithe. offering was mostly done in monetary form. Jesus personally supervised one widow in the temple. in the act of apostles, they giv offering to help the less privileged. some sold their property and brought the money.
tithe and offering are not dsame sir.
Christianity EtcRe: Tithing : A Scriptural Analysis. by lonikit: 9:15am On Nov 26, 2017
if tithe is strictly for the pastors, pls explain this portion. sir
Deuteronomy 14:28-29 KJV
At the end of three years thou shalt bring forth all the tithe of thine increase the same year, and shalt lay it up within thy gates: [29] And the Levite, (because he hath no part nor inheritance with thee,) and the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, which are within thy gates, shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied; that the Lord thy God may bless thee in all the work of thine hand which thou doest.

Deuteronomy 26:12 KJV
When thou hast made an end of tithing all the tithes of thine increase the third year, which is the year of tithing, and hast given it unto the Levite, the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow, that they may eat within thy gates, and be filled;

u say tithe is prerequisite to financial breakthrough sir. Qatar is the richest country and they dont pay tithe. the likes of dangote, saraki, tinubu, Soyinka dont pay tithe. so hw come they are rich.huh

u also said we need holy spirit to explain it to us. are u saying the apostles lack holy spirithuh bcus they didn't do it.

most of the scriptures u quoted have no relationship with the concept of tithing.
Christianity EtcRe: Tithing : A Scriptural Analysis. by lonikit: 8:36am On Nov 26, 2017
next time u say "personal analysis" not scriptural analysis.
u said tithe is paid monthly or annually. where is dat in the scripture sirhuh u equally said its compulsory tax, pls tribute is diif frm tithe sir.

my only question to u is that why is it that Christ who is the author and finisher of our faith did not practise it. likewise the apostles?? are u we suppose to do what Christ didn't dohuh
