Theology has always existed.The scribes and Pharisees were the theologians of their age

slegerman:
You still don't get it. Did he get a PhD in Theology for him to be qualified to preach the gospel or do God's work?

Please refer to my initial post for you to understand my point very well.

buragidi:
That is the problem. You are quoting the scripture out of context to achieve your objective. The preceding verses spoke about how Abraham tithed to Melchizedek and how , by implication, even the levites, wholater received tithe under the mosaic law have tithed to Melchizedek through Abraham (since they were in his loins).

Now, if Jesus could not receive tithe because he has once received once as Melchizedek from Abraham (whom the bible says has paid for his children e.g Levites). How come that the Pastors of today now receive the same tithe? are they higher in rank than Jesus Christ who could not receive it more than once?

How come that Pastors now receive it on daily basis (when even Jesus Christ could not receive it twice-premised on the Melchizedek link to Jesus Christ). If truly Abraham has paid for his children, how come that you still say God command us to pay?

Please enlighten me with biblical verses.

Teebilion:
as at when melchizedek collected the tithes of spoils,there was nothing such as levi or levites....GET ur facts right sir

slegerman:
You are missing the point here. Education here means formal classroom teaching leading to PhD in Theology that most pastors have.

buragidi:
Please, can you please back-up this your position with the scripture? Can you authoritatively give us biblical evidences of either Jesus or any of the apostles receiving or paying tithe or where they commanded us to pay?

Can you please state with biblical reference where it is stated that 'Christians should pay tithe under the Abrahamic faith"?

If you position is true, is it not only once in his lifetime that Abraham was recorded to have paid tithe to Melchizedek, how come it now becomes a daily, weekly, monthly and annual obligation in today's Christianity?

Is it not also recorded that Abraham tithed from the spoils of war (and not from his personal belonging), how come that people are now asked to tithe from every income they make?

Is it not stated that Abraham voluntarily gave a tithe to Melchizedek (not that God mandated him, like it was commanded under the mosaic law), how come that today's Pastor succinctly tells Christians that tithe is a commandment from God and non-payment attract curse?

Is there anywhere in the Abrahamic tithing story that it was stated that tithe was paid in cash? How come that today's pastors automatically preach that tithe is in monetary term?

What do you think is the implication of Heb 7:12 on this your Abrahamic principle of tithing. Please back-up your position with fact (biblical references), not what you think or what your pastor just put on your lips.

slegerman:
I don't want to get myself involve in this but I can't look pass this statement - "academically freeze no get some of these pastors resume."

You are wrong on this.

The early Christians never attended any school to learn how to preach or do God's work. They were directed by the holy spirit. So, a pastor who holds a PhD in theology is no different from a student who went to school to get MBA to better his chances of getting a good paid employment and making it in life. One can easily said that such pastors were not called by God.

So how much is UCAP commission from this.

Lmaoooooo.

Odumakin is a joker.

Eveytime I hear people talk about PDP in the SW in 2019, I laugh cos they dont have the structures or people. The PDP has managed to fight itself out of the head of everyone which can help. Very sad

I noticed that the writer was trying so hard to be objective, but his biased lens was too visible to ignore.
I was expecting to see images or pdf of some of the scripts, not just the analysis.
@all that are against the governor on this, I want us to know that this is the major reason they are holding us down, they destroy the foundation, send the foundation move to secondary, they know the foundation is so poor, they send their kids to private foundation, then elite secondary(kings college, queens college, gci, etc) or private secondary, a kid with very poor foundation will find it difficult to meet the required score for the elite sch entrance exam, then move to elite tertiary, private or abroad, they come back with good skills to man the system, the cycle continues, products of that very poor foundation must fill a slot as there cant be a vaccum, they fill up places where they cant be productive, they dish out nonsense, from schools to banks, from sports to middlelevel governance, etc, since they know the foundation gave us nothing, they know we cant fight for something, so they gave us what they wish to, like 1derica of rice, 2yards of ankara, face-cap, etc so we dont question them about right or wrong, but accept their actions as a privilege and not as one thaf deserves better.

thedondada:
Just saw this. Agreed it's not primary school exams.

Sitting here I can answer all those questions without fail. Using your common sense imagine teaching aid can't be explained by a teacher.

Like an engineer who doesn't know what cantilevered means.
