No godfather brought in oshiomole,
but, oshiomole brought in a godson and even fighting tooth and nail to bring in another godson.
Edo,can you imagine?

The world is changing but God's standard never change.

If only churches can preach less of money and more against iniquity

I'm still laughing!
In one family there was a child who did not speak. But one morning the child began to move his lips to pronounce a word, everybody rushes to hear what the child is going to say, so the child only pronounced "Grandma"
Hours later someone came to announce that the grandmother is dead.

Two days later the child starts to stammer again, moving his lips, this time everyone looks with fear & in the end he pronounces "uncle", that evening his mother's brother died.

Then came the fatal day, that night the child repeats the same moving of his lips & there everyone rushes to the door fleeing, but b4 everybody was able to get to the door he had already said "papa."

That evening the father was terrified & could not sleep at all bcoz of fear; then, his wife having pity on him, told him that the child was not actually his child.
For once we see a husband to whom such news is announced jump with joy & thank his wife for having cheated on him. And the next day, the driver was dead in front of the door ...

The husband is still dancing.

*Have a wonderful day*

Thank God for science.
Am sure these are things that happened in the past and they dogmatically linked it to spiritual happening that up till today people have insisted they were spiritual.
Bring any of those "mysterious" incidences to this modern day, science will effortlessly unravel and explain it.

Kobojunkie:
Ask yourself the big question, if Jesus has [b]Fulfilled [/b]the Old Covenant on your behalf, why do you find yourself still living by a law defined in the Old Covenant and not in the Covenant that Jesus said you should live by instead?
The old covenant is completely different from the new covenant. And it is not possible to put one foot into the old covenant and one foot into the new covenant. It is essentially an ALL or NOTHING deal whichever way you choose. Jesus put it something like this.... you do not put New wine into Old wine skin. Same way you do not put Old wine into new wine skin.

He, Jesus, has already paid the debt you owe as far as the Old Covenant is concerned. Essentially instead the 613 commandments/Statues of the old covenant(a very heavy yoke for even the people of Israel who carry it),Jesus offered us all each only about 46 statutes/commandments to Obey(Jesus said His yoke is like), of which tithing is not even one of them(since it is of a part of and remains a part of the old covenant). So why are you still choosing to follow the old covenant when you have yet exhausted yourself with obeying the new covenant that Jesus has stipulated for you to obey daily?

ya,i get your point now.
I really appreciate

toscolee:
Alms giving done exactly as stipulated in the scripture is a type of tithe.

Sir, please any Bible verse to validate this assertion?

SIONKPO1:
Read from the beginning of the chapter

I already did,sir

terrymason:
Bro kindly watch this....

The Difference Between Tithe and Helping the poor...

Give with the right revelation... Don't covert your tithe to arms giving.

Thanks sir,but,how about this Deuteronomy 26:12. I want to really understand it

Kobojunkie:
Please stop letting other people tell you what you can or cannot do as far as God is concerned. SInce you choose to live by the Old Covenant, let that choice be wholly yours. Read the BIble for yourself and decide on whether you want to obey what is written or not .... It really should be that simple.

This is what God COMMANDED you to do with your Tithe

If you disregard his command because you are worried about how the gospel will be spread, that one you will carry with your own head there.

Thank you Sir,
But,i sincerely don't get your point

EmmyDJourno:
Water it down mean; It is not worthless in the eyes of God

Sir, please explain with Bible verses

Ekugbeh:
read it in all it entirety for ur sef. I mean read it from the beginning to get full understanding.


That portion was talking about administration of tithes not for u as a tither. But the write up was mixed up to. It was addressing the priests and at the same time the congregation too.

Not referring to the tither?
Sir,read again,it didn't say "give the tithe brought to the temple"
It says "give your tithe to the levite, strangers, widows.....".
If it was referring to those who administers the tithe,how then did that scripture also included the levite?
Or,are those who administers the tithe different from the levite?

mykel25:
Yes if you’re convinced in your spirit

Okay,
But, please can you explain this Deuteronomy 26:12?

madridsta007:
Do what you want to do. I am sure you are matured enough- over 18.
No one asides YOURSELF will enjoy the blessings or the adverse consequences of your decision, so why should you bother people here?

Sorry sir,i sincerely don't understand the crime in trying to learn what i don't know

EmmyDJourno:
Why do u sound confused

Lol, sincerely am really confused.but, nobody has been able to counter this Deuteronomy 26:12

kwasoly:
Don't confuse yourself Mal 3 vz 10 is dedicated to tithe. Giving your sister a percentage of ur money is never tithe. Note Anything you give outside the house of God is not tithe.

Okay, thanks sir,but please, could you help me and explain this Deuteronomy 26:12?

toscolee:
Alms giving done exactly as stipulated in the scripture is a type of tithe.

Please, where in the Bible?

alphaRego01:
Haba bros,to widows kwa

saw it in the Bible na.
It's not my opinion na

rollandben:
My brother, This Deut 14:22...Its an alternative verses of paying your tithe, please Try and read Mal verses before you start misleading poeple.

He quoted several verses, you quoted non.

MicaiahOgorry06:
Pay it to your church. Note that it is the responsibility of your Church pastor to administer the tithe. God in His wisdom knows how to guide him on how to reach out to some windows, fatherless and even some other people that are in need. In a real sense even those who are paying tithe to their Church can as well be a partaker of the same tithe during their time of need.

Sir you didn't even back your assertion with any scriptural verse,and you didn't say anything about Deuteronomy 26:12

EmmyDJourno:
Water it down mean; It is not worthless in the eyes of God

but, the same God said we can give tithe to widows.

OKTolu:
The Bible is your guide bro

Sir, please explain

EmmyDJourno:
Paying your Tithe in my opinion is in the aid of God's work

If a widow or less privileged thanks God cause of your Tithe, then God's work is done through you

Some have to go to the work of God in the Church, but giving it to those in need outside the Church doesn't water it down

Sir, please explain what you mean by "water it down".

toscolee:
This is alms giving, not tithe.
A lot of Christians don't give alms, it's unscriptural.
Pay your tithe and take care of your family.
Also help the poor and needy.

Alms? Is that what that verse says?

MasterJayJay:
THE TRUTH ABOUT TITHE.

Introduction: If your pastors say giving the needy, widows, orphans 10% of your income is not tithe, that you must pay it to him, then you are attending a business centre, not a church.

Malachi is the favourite book most pastors use to preach tithe. And it is very obvious, they use it because it contains a curse for those who don't pay it. Therefore, it is the 'best' verse used to brainwash Christians.

If you want to preach tithing, preach all verses related to it. Most of these men of God know the other verses but the only one they preach to their audience is Malachi. The sheep they are leading are even lazy to read their own bibles to see the truth for themselves. Note that quarter of truth is no truth, truth must be whole. Don’t add, don't remove.

Tithing is an Old Testament concept, just like circumcision and animal sacrifice. Things Christians were meant to abide to have validations from New testament after death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. There is nowhere tithe was clearly instructed in the New Testament after the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

The New Testament focuses on giving without compulsion. 2 Corinthians 9:7 captured it very well “Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver".

If you believe in tithing, then you should see other verses of the bible to know how it was applied thousands of years ago. Tithes were not for gentiles, it was for the Jews. Tithes were for the Levites, descendants of Levi. How many of your Pastors that preach Malachi to you are descendants of Levi?

There is a particular portion of the bible most pastors will never preach to you, and that can be found in Deut 14.22-29. Tithe was instructed to be given to the strangers, orphans, widows etc. How many pastors can boldly tell their members to give their tithes to widows and those in need?

Conclusion, if you want to pay tithe, that's your choice. But don't use outdated and obsolete verses like the one found in Malachi to threaten people. Are some verses outdated? Animal sacrifices were allowed in the Old Testament. After Jesus Christ paid for our sins, it made animal sacrifices to be outdated, and that includes tithes too.



For detailed explanation on tithes see this thread

business center?
Haaa bros,try and be guided na.
And, you didn't even answer my question self

petra1:
Tithe is given to God through the high priest
However God added two additional tithes for the Jews under the law then:

Which was tithes for the poor and the third one was a recreational feast . Take a 10% and enjoy feast and picnic

All were to be done . The later 2 dies not take away the tithe to God . So give what is for God to God

Sir,am a bit confused by your explanation.
Please explain Deuteronomy 26 12

Oluromantic:
Malachi 3:10 answers it all. It says all the full tight should be taken to the house of the Lord. You can give your sister money, gifts etc but ur full tithe is not negotiable

Sir, you didn't say anything about Deuteronomy 26:12.

A friend just showed this scripture to me:

"Give a tenth of your products, to the levite, strangers, fatherless and widows, so they will have what to eat while in your land".

Can i begin to give a portion of my tithe to my widowed sister?

KingAzubuike:
I hate hearing things like this. Change your mentality, nobody is the cause of your misfortune. Schools like this you get value for money, quality education and another is the kind of people you meet there. Kids from great backgrounds, you get to form a network that will be invaluable later in future. A network that will shape your life and give it a meaning. If you have the money, take your kids there. It's usually a faster and surest route to greatness.

I am so sure that this is not your objective opinion.
This is what those papas who own private versities told you.
Develop your mind bro.

maklelemakukula:
Great news. He should continue with the online broadcast then

I can only wish papa goes to isolation centers and lay hands

Jokerman:
1. World soccer ranking (2013)
2. UEFA best 10 coaches all time (2018)

So, with all these,it still took ur great mou over one yr to land a common tothenharm?
Within this period, Bayern, Barca,inter, Madrid and so many clubs changed coaches yet didn't even look the way of ur mou?
Can you imagine pep in this miserable position?
Bro,it's obvious you don't know what club owners look at when scouting a coach.
1) current result,
2) overall performance.
On both front,pep is way ahead of ur mou.
Mou 25 trophies,pep 30.
Mou 61.4percent win
Pep 74.6percent in epl.
I sincerely don't understand what you typing up there

Oghenerobo2002:
If Guardiola wants to go to Italy, he'll coach Juventus and if he goes to France, it will be PSG. There's nothing special there. Coaches won the epl with man city before he came

Seems you don't understand the meaning of the word "class".
Hahaha.
Tell me how Ferguson won champions league with Stokes City.
Oh arsene won epl with west harm.
Aye,I just remember Mourinho won laliga when coaching eibar.

hermesprogidy:
