Religion / Re: Why Did Jesus Pay Tax And Didn't Pay Tithe? by MightySparrow: 10:21pm On Aug 19
Stubborn82:
The issues of tithing is generating lots of controversy among the Christians of now adays, while some think it is good to pay tithe, some think otherwise, backing their believe with scriptural references, at the bases of using scriptural references to justify whether tithing is important or not, many Christians are confused and lost, not knowing which to accept or to follow.




The truth is that the word of God can not contradict one another, it is the ignorance or selfishness of the people that causes the contradiction. Someone bump into my inbox recently, after I commented on a Facebook post about tithing, this person happened to be the admin of the page, he tried to contradict himself by wanting me to agree with his view about tithing, in fact he sent lots of references upon references pointing to the direction of his view, but what struck me the most, in all his arguments was this question, "why Jesus pay tax and didn't pay tithe?" I did my best by giving him the answer with the wisdom from the scripture.

I found out that many Christians are still confused and struggling to understand why Jesus didn't pay tithe but went ahead and pay tax, to understand this better, we need to divide this question into two, and ask ourselves, what is tax and what is tithe, are they the same thing? This person that came into my inbox, cited Matt 17:24-25 to show that Jesus paid tax, but this person made a mistake, because the key to understand mystery is WHY not WHAT, Jesus paid tax, that's WHAT Jesus did, WHY Jesus did that? This is one thing that this person didn't know or probably trying to hide it, then I pointed to the same Matt 17 he cited earlier but this time i asked him to read verse 26 and 27 in order to see the answer to why Jesus paid the tax, initially, it is not Jesus obligation by right to pay tax, but he did that simply to avoid problem with the tax collectors.

Why Jesus didn't pay tithe?
This is another controversial question and the point of reference for many to generate justification about tithing, it is very important to know that, while tax is to be paid, tithe is to be giving, you don't pay tithe, you give tithe, which ever way, but the question is why Jesus didn't pay or give tithe? Like I said before, that the key to understand mystery is WHY, one good reason that Jesus didn't pay tithe is because neither Jesus nor the apostles works or engaged in profitable business, tithe is only mandatory to income earners or profit enterprise, Jesus didn't come to contradict the word of God, he came to fulfill it, tithe is not mandatory on gift items, tithe is strictly for income earners, you can't expect Jesus to give ten percent of the food someone invited him to eat in his house, same way you can't tell someone to give tithe on a gift items or materials that he or she received from someone, tithe is not mandatory on gift items but only on profit and income earnings.

Perhaps somebody can still argue that, tithing is an old testament doctrine or law and it is not applicable to new testament teaching, but the truth is, tithing is not a law or doctrine, tithing is a commandment from God, it is not a church doctrine or religious laws, if they says it is an old testament law and it should be disregarded, then is marriage not also come from old testament, is praying not also come from old testament? Why do you want to abolish tithe and not abolish praying or abolish the commandment of God that says, man shall leave his parents and cleave to his wife and the two shall become one flesh? Tithe is a commandment just like marriage commandment, it is not limited to any religion, whether Christian, Islam, Judaism or induism. Tithe is a commandments to whoever seek after God, regardless of religious affiliation.

Thanks for taking your time to read this epistle, next Sunday I will conclude on this series of tithing, the benefits of tithing and Why we need to engage in tithing regardless of our religious affiliation.

How can anyone prove that Jesus didn't pay tithe at anytime? He never condemned tithing and offerings anywhere. Mark 23:23, Luke 18:12 The tax he paid to Roman government was because Peter was accused by a tax collector. . Luke for instance
The error in some teachings is to believe that every day -to - day activity of Jesus was recorded. The gospels were what each writer could glean from the mouths of pekole. Luke for instance, was not among the disciples. He masterly, being an educated person, wrote Luke and Acts.

If nobody had asked him divorce, He probably would not have commented on it.
The problem of some folks is that they are reading the Bible with closed minds.

The actors of Bible days are just normal people and in normal times as we are today. If Jesus were to be here physically in our time, there are questions to ask him too.

I believe the problem of people is greed. Why is it when they have to give to God that they argue? They never argue about asking from God or a man of God.

Steep:
For you info steep believes the Holy Spirit is God.
Non of you can disprove the Trinity, you don't even understand what it is in the first place.
You think the trinity means the father, Son and Spirit are separate Gods. No, scripture declares the Son as God, the Spirit as God and the father as God same God not Gods.

For example 1 Timothy 6:15-16 refers to the father as the king of kings and Lord of lords but you also forgot that revelation 19 declares the Son as the King of kings and the Lord of lord. This becomes a contradiction to you but not to trinitarians like myself because we already know that the father Son and Spirit are one God.
On course bro.

As far as scripture is concern, no one can oppose what I write and survive the opposition. I stand on the truth.
I am still preparing something comprehensive against trinity. Trinity doctrine is antichrist. I can see many people who are still confused.

Steep said he believes in trinity but doesn't believe the Holy Spirit is God. Anything that brings confusion is of the devil. To know the truth about God, you must start by accepting what Jesus said and every other thing will fall in place.

I can see the antichrist people gossiping about me. MightySparrow, achorladey, and co. Those that are so afraid of my kajad questions.

The times of the Gentiles would end in 1914, resulting in the end of Armageddon, the fall of false religion, the end of all earthly governments, the heavenly and earthly resurrections, and paradise on earth (Watchtower, July 15, 1894, p. 226).


Mat_7:15  Beware of the false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves.

1Jn_4:1  Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.

^^ the false prophet spirits have been tested, and they have been found to be:
paranoid, liars, blasphemers, mentally unstable, etc.

You're WRONG!

The teaching Jesus is talking about has three major goals:
•Teaching them about Jehovah the God of Abraham, God of Isaac and God of Jacob (Israel) His purposes and how He has been working using several humans in the past to achieve it.
•Teaching them about the promised Messiah (Christ) his role in the salvation of mankind and how the sacred secrets of God's purposes were made known through Christ Jesus the only begotten Son of God.
•Teaching them about the way God makes use of His active force (Holy Spirit) as His servants are moved by this force to continue doing His will despite their flaws as imperfect humans.

That's what Jesus meant when he said the new converts should be baptized in the name of the father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Matthew 28:19

maximumSide has failed to tell us the identity and qualifications of the New Word Translation's proficiency in Aramaic, Hebrew, and Greek languages. The problem between preachers and academics is playing with word's.

JWs are trying to defend their doctrines at all costs from subtle deception of myriads of lazy Christians who don't read their Bibles to the harassment of those who read and even trying to take a step further to learn these original languages of the Bible.

1The rewording of John 1:1 by JW' s NWT is criminal. It gives a bad meaning to the verse. In fact it connotes a plural godhead than the idea of Trinity: A God and a god. These are two gods! A superior God and an inferior god. A big God and a. small god.

This colouration, however, is honestly appreciated by JWs by 'New Lights'. The light has never been dimmed, people with dimmed minds, see through their spectacles that give them blurred vision of the truth.
