Nonsense school with nonsense lecturers. The same school sometimes ago a department said no body deserves second class upper openly.

One is a Muslim girl the other a Christian girl. Maybe one of them was pushed and some other people decided to push some one of their Faith. If that us the case, the Dean's decision is justifiable

Christianity Etc › Re: Why Don't Pastors Preach About PAUPER'S TITHE As Prescribed By Scriptures? by pek(m): 8:14pm On Dec 16, 2018
JeromeBlack:
I'm sure many people reading this have never heard of "pauper's tithe" or "poor tithe". I have gone through many sermons both online and in real life but I have never heard any Nigerian pastor explain this concept.

So, what is pauper's tithe?
The pauper's tithe, (Hebrew: מַעְשַׂר עָנִי‬ ma'sar ani), Maseer ani, is a hebrew word taken from the old testament that refers to the tithe that is reserved for the levites and the poor (widows, orphans beggars).

This can be seen in the book of Deuteronomy-

(Deuteronomy 14:28)
At the end of three years you shall bring forth all the tithe of your produce in that year, and shall lay it up inside your gates; And the Levite, because he has no part nor inheritance with you, and the stranger, and the orphan, and the widow, who are inside your gates, shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied; that the Lord your God may bless you in all the work of your hand which you do.”

(Deuteronomy 26:12)
When you have finished tithing all the tithes of your produce in the third year, the year of the tithe, you shall give them to the Levite, the stranger, the orphan, and the widow, so that they can eat to satiety in your cities.


In modern times, Orthodox Jews give a tenth of their income to charity. Those in Isreal give some of their harvest to the poor. In traditional practice, this pauper's tithe was the third tithe. The first two had to do with church. In modern times, tithing to the poor/charity is more common among jews since there is disagreement to who is a true levite/descendant of levites.


I just want to really ask why Nigerian pastors do not preach about this poor man's tithe? Is it because they are so engrossed in filling their pockets?
op, it is Israel not Isreal.

That man doesn't know what the scripture says about giving. With what he just did now, no reward for me. Must he give the shoes out openly? His ministry needs the money more.

Still looking for fault in your whatsapp conversation with your friend but finds none. I wonder the kind of lecturer supervising you.

A simple call to disprove with facts and you are bringing God into it, this is more reason a lot of people are buying into the story.
Buhari has nothing to prove to you or anyone. It is those saying he is Juburi that should prove their allegations. In law, it is the accuser that proves.

In as much as we don't like it, we cannot stop it because it is a believe. Let us narrow it down to Nigeria. The Hausa's feels they are born to rule,the Yoruba's feels they are the most intelligent while the Igbo's feels they are more special than others. Hence, each one look down on the others.
Hausas, Igbos and Yorubas.
