Good and logic questions raised!!
Its now up to our pastors and ministers of the gospel including Pastor enoch Adeboye to respond adequately WITH SCRIPTURES!
No emotional maneuvering Or Evasive tactics!!

As for Genuine Christians who worship in assemblies where tithes are paid,U must do ur part by asking questions about everything that runs contrary to the scriptures.....
U are part and parcel of the body of Christ....So U must ask questions esp if the doctrines are not in line with that of the early christians!!

I repeat...Every one is "EQUAL AND VERY IMPORTANT" before God even a Unbeliever....
There is no hierarchy or segregation in the body of Christ!
No genuine believer of the gospel should fold his or her hands and claim "I don't care where my money goes or its none of my business"....People who don't care are the easiest to deceive!!

The Bible is where U will find what U need....Dont Allow some one else to study or read it for U
Go beyond the "daily devotional studies" that U buy from ur various assemblies....and study the scriptures!!

As usual targeting the person instead of the topic cheesy
Its so hard for those who tithe to explain without using Malachi 3:10-12
Its like a national anthem for them....
But no one dares ask the preacher about Deuteronomy 14:22-29
No believer dare ask a pastor about Matthew 25:31 - 46
Why is it so hard for some Christians to study or read the bible?

Nice points. Could you please cite the scriptures supporting this? After all we're all learning. NB: annual tithe given to God was eaten by the person giving the tithe with his family and the Levites, not just the Levites.
That will only happen when a rooster develops a tooth.....It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone like him to prove his assertions with scriptures....

For me, I still don't understand why churches have to go commercial like business, why do they advertise it like they need customers.
Its even worse...
Today there is stiff competition between churches...
Who does more miracles...who attracts more people...
Who builds more branches....

U will hear a pastor announce the assembly as "the hottest church in town"....When has the body of Christ become a bone of contention between churches...

The problem is that most Christians hardly ask questions for fear of being labelled a rebel.....And yet we have the same bible....what a pity!!

The Jews have 3 kinds of tithes . The one given to God was on every every year because they were farmers . But the other tithes were just merely percentages . These were different from the main tithe .tithing is according to earnings. People who earn monthly salary tithes monthly . If you earn annually you can tithe annually . If you earn weekly you tithe weekly. Its an individual choice to give in cash or kind

The scriptures indeed should be our guide!
No need for all these endless arguments and controversies....Let the scriptures be used as prove not some psychological manipulation and inscriptions....Worse part is that some "pastors" now call their "pre-law tithing" a spiritual principle...in other words,that spiritually principled tithe has no scriptural inclination!!
Christianity EtcRe: 10 Reasons You Must Tithe! by openmine(m):
Please let's Use scriptures to argue our points instead of what U heard pastors or ministers of the gospel say....Let the scriptures be our guide and authority rather than resorting to endless manipulation or evasive tactics....

If U know that the "law of tithe" existed before the law of moses,then find that law and its ordinances,and apply it into Ur every day lives....

....Don't tell me that tithe existed before the law of moses and yet seek to prove tithe payment using Malachi 3:10-12 which also speaks about the "mosaic law tithe" and not the so called concocted lie called "prelaw tithe"....

And lets be honest....Can we just ask our pastors or ministers where it is written in the scriptures that pastors and minsters are now the "levites of this present day?"

Is there a scripture That states clearly that pastors or ministers are the ones commanded like the "levites" and priests to receive tithes from believers?

Please Ask questions my fellow believers who indulge in tithe payments or preaching or receive a doctrine that has no scripture inclination!!

burnt offering were sin offerings . A shadow of christ . Christ has been made sin . We still do give offerings but not sin offering . Tithe was never a shadow It’s a principle . Just like prayer and fasting
Do U have scriptures to prove that tithe was never a shadow?
Christianity EtcRe: 10 Reasons You Must Tithe! by openmine(m):

Reconciliation



No one is talking about the law of Moses . We are talking about tithe . Tithe did not originate under the law of Moses .

The fact that it’s contained in the obsolete law does not negate its potency . There are other things contained in the law that Christians practice . Such as prayer, almsgiving, Justice , morality , Thanksgiving and honoring your father And mother . The law is a reference to many kingdom principles .
Mr petra1,U have come again with ur concocted and so called fallacies called spiritual principle which U have labelled as spiritual tithe....lol

I have pleaded several times with U to offer scriptures to such baseless and direction-less assumptions,Unfortunately, U have been unable to prove ur assertions using scriptures instead of using manipulation or evasion or gimmicks!!

Let me ask U....the Malachi 3:10-12 which U indirectly hold on to as basis for believers to tithe,where was it coined from?
Was it from the pre-law tithe or the mosaic law....

Tithe is a requirement to the people of Israel as clearly contained in the law of moses with its platform,structures and commandments boldly written in the laws of moses (Reference Leviticus 27:30;Deutronomy 14:22-29;Nehemiah 10;Numbers 18:20)

If U have any scriptures to prove that tithing is pre-law,please do so with scriptures showing its structures and ordinances...It was boldly and clearly written when Abraham and his families were commanded by God to do "burnt offerings and circumcision ".....Why was there no commandment laid down for Abraham about tithe since U claim its was before the law?

Please Petra1,for the 100th or so time,please open bible and show me and others where tithe was commanded by God to Abraham before he met king Melchizedek! No evasion or gimmicks.... Just prove it with scriptures!

And while U are at it please I would like to know how pastors and ministers of the Gospel miraculously started receiving tithes using Ur spiritual principle and ur over laboured pre-law tithe as a yardstick!
And please Do so with scriptures before the law of moses.... Thank U!
Christianity EtcRe: 10 Reasons You Must Tithe! by openmine(m): 4:00pm On Nov 05, 2017
For those who said Christ never condemned tithe....of course Jesus never condemned the tithe as practised in the law of moses(not the one concocted by most of our pastors and ministers) simply because he was simply UNDER THE LAW....Jesus even went to the temple and carried out most of the Jewish customs as contained in the law of moses!!



I have a question what was the reason behind the death and resurrection of Christ?

If U believe the law of moses is still relevant to Christians,why are Christians not offering goat sacrifices or burning incense?

Or are there laws some Christians choose to obey and some we choose to disobey?

If tithe and other laws of Moses could make a believer blessed,then Christ death was in vain!!
Christianity EtcRe: 10 Reasons You Must Tithe! by openmine(m): 1:12pm On Nov 05, 2017
First of all I must correct an erroneous impression from the OP..."Tithe" is not a form of "Giving"

Tithe according to the bible is a "requirement" not "generosity "

U cannot give what is required....U pay for it!!

U cannot willingly and generously 'give' school fee or bus fare is required!!
Now that sounds absurd!!

Secondly,U don't give to God Ur tithe while his children are suffering and sick...and He knows U have the ability to help them!!

When U help those who are in need,
When U feed them,cloth them,shelter them and offer them encouragement,U are actually 'Giving' to God (Reference Matthew 25:31 - 46)
The bible said in proverbs 19:17, that if you give to the 'needy' or 'poor',U are actually lending to God....!!

Finally,OP quoted a scripture which was actually the platform the early Christians adopted....
Unfortunately and sadly,the OP made a twist just to make it look like a form of tithe....See the scripture


And now, brothers and sisters, we want you to know about the grace that God has given the Macedonian churches.

In the midst of a very severe trial, their overflowing joy and their extreme poverty welled up in rich generosity.

For I testify that they gave as much as they were able, and even beyond their ability.

Entirely on their own, they urgently pleaded with us for the privilege of sharing in this service to the Lord’s people.

And they exceeded our expectations: They gave themselves first of all to the Lord, and then by the will of God also to us.

So we urged Titus, just as he had earlier made a beginning, to bring also to completion this act of grace on your part.

But since you excel in everything —in faith, in speech, in knowledge, in complete earnestness and in the love we have kindled in you—see that you also excel in this grace of giving.

I am not commanding you, but I want to test the sincerity of your love by comparing it with the earnestness of others. For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sake he became poor, so that you through his poverty might become rich.

As for this singer,I was trying to read where he mentioned or quoted any scripture to back his claim unfortunately, he ended up saying the same thing most pastors tell the congregation every day about tithe....

Many pastors or ministers know the truth about tithing....many ministers know that the tithing in d bible is totally different from what they teach....

Many pastors know that freeze is saying the truth....They are just surprised how such "revelation" can come from a so called talkative OAP instead of such coming from a preacher or minister or pastor!!

Chiedu4Trump:

DaddyFreeze, here are biblical reasons why tithing for blessings are wrong.



If you expect God to help you becos of your tithes, you are offending Jesus,and here are why..



Joshua conquered all because of God's blessings NOT tithes.


Deuteronomy 11:25
There shall no man be able to stand before you: for the Lord your God shall lay the fear of you and the dread of you upon all the land that ye shall tread upon, as he hath said unto you.

Now Our Blessings are in Jesus not Tithes.
Noitce it says ALL not some


Ephesians 1:3
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:


So choose which is better, money or Jesus



The Law does not make anybody perfect!
Heb 7:19
For the law made nothing perfect!

What makes us perfect before God is the sacrifice Jesus made for us.

Colossians 1:28
Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom;
that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus:

If tithing could get you favor with God or save us, Jesus would not have died.

QUESTION
What do you think carries more weight in heaven?

The Blood Jesus shed for you and I

Matthew 26:28
For this is my blood of the new testament,
which is shed for many for the remission of sins.

OR

The tithes you pay?

Remember that the Silver & Gold already belongs to God.

Haggai 2:8
The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, saith the Lord of hosts.



In fact believing that things will work because your tithe means;
you are saying to God that the sacrifice Jesus paid is not good enough and you need to add more to it.

And the bible is clear that all our blessings are in Jesus Christ and not our tithes.
Notice it says ALL!
So everything we want Jesus has paid for it, so tithes cannot get it.

Ephesians 1:3
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:

So the law of tithing does not bring favor.


Now a quick question, did Jesus collect tithes?
The only time it's menitoned in the New Testament is to yab the Pharisees.

Apart for that once, tithes was never mentioned again in the New Testament.

So why do pastors make you put your faith in ur tithes & not Jesus?

Answer is simply, GREED


Spot on!
Respect!
