Topgainer:So you know this ? Most ladies are happy to be attached to a yahoo pastor and become the principal partner of a successful Church Business Center, the little headache is nothing compared to the enjoyment. The pastor is running choir girls and the Mama is running band boys, Mama extorts the women group, Papa does the rest including destroying homes. The revenue and investments are shared, as for domestic works both at home and at the Business complex, thoroughly brainwashed slaves are always at the beck and call of the Master. Most times they are not paid any allowances ironically Papa takes his 'salary' upfront.Very bad that a christian writes this about the body of christ she belongs to . |
oruma19:Aso Ebi no bi costume ? Matthew 22:12 (KJV) And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless. Halloween in the church for birthday celebration.Firstly it wasn’t Halloween , secondly it was not in church and thirdly How you celebrate your birthday is your personal affair . Don’t you cut birthday cake? . WHERE TOU GET IT FROM ? We excuse ourselves and condemn others . That’s hypo. . . |
Stylz69:Wrong Answer ! The biggest was christ ! John 7:12 (TLB) 12 There was a lot of discussion about him among the crowds. Some said, "He's a wonderful man," while others said, "No, he's duping the public." |
GloriaNinja:Do you know what costume party means ? |
[quote author=nicemuyoo post=63108760]The Spirit behind tithing and offering Is to help the less previlage [/quote ] Wrong ! Tithe and offering is to God in worship .whixh is used for welfare of Men of God or or full time ministers Leviticus 27:30 And all the tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land, or of the fruit of the tree, is the Lord's: it is holy unto the lord Numbers 18:21-25 21 And, behold, I have given the Levites all the tithes in Israel for an inheritance in return for their service which they serve, the [menial] service of the Tent of Meeting. especially of the house hold of faith. Not church organisation. Since God's temple is in believers you ought to direct the giving to such individuals so that non is lacking amongst you. This was what happened in early church. It's all about people not clergy or a registered church organisationThere are different kinds of giving in the Bible Tithes , offering , alms, etc . You can give alms to the poor but tithe and offering is to God . |
raphieMontella:1 Corinthians 15:5-8 (NLT) 5 He was seen by Peter and then by the Twelve. 6 After that, he was seen by more than 500 of his followers at one time, most of whom are still alive, though some have died. 7 Then he was seen by James and later by all the apostles. 8 Last of all, as though I had been born at the wrong time, I also saw him. It’s obvious you have not Read the book of acts . Hence you don’t know who Paul is Ki |
Ranchhoddas:Such aprons are to dispel certain witchcraft and satanic attacks . |
correctguy101:Andy How are they identified |
raphieMontella:Jewish tradition is mostly of men not of christ . Mark 7:13 (KJV) 13 Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye. If you believe in christ , kindly get yourself acquainted. With the epistles . Jesus gave Paul his doctrine. Galatians 1:11-12 (KJV) 11 But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man. 12 For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ. |
raphieMontella:You serve the Jewish tradition now? |
nonhuman: 1 Corinthians 11:7 (KJV) For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, forasmuch as he is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man. |
chemystery:When you see God ask him .God is just. If God hadn’t done it there will be no isreal . There will be no Salvation.? You see the outward only God see the heart and the future . Besides why breaking your head over incidence of over 4,000 years ago. He even destroyed entire earth just to preserve a pure race . He knows more than your limited mind |
connectikut89:Gibberish ! Are priests farmers. ? |
chemystery:It was demonic influence which cause pharaoh to decree against Gods people Exodus 1:15-16 (KJV) 15 And the king of Egypt spake to the Hebrew midwives, of which the name of the one was Shiphrah, and the name of the other Puah: 16 And he said, When ye do the office of a midwife to the Hebrew women, and see them upon the stools; if it be a son, then ye shall kill him: but if it be a daughter, then she shall live. |
chemystery:Yes as I explained earlier . Since the fallen angels invaded the earth . Wickedness abound . The nations attacked isreal . Sometimes even when isreal appeal to just pass through their land and vowed to pay for even water they drink they would still attack Israel . Because of the demons in them The devils have been polluting the human race . The process of possession was through the idol demonic worship . That’s why God says not to marry them . Demond’s transfer like virus. God had to quarantine isreal . But now jesus says we can cast out devils in his name . So no need dwelling on the old again If this is justice to youit was justice because there was wickedness . Do you know how many Jewish male children they killled ? Despite this God still appealed to pharaoh to key his people go over 12 times . why do you see it wrong when Muslims kill those who doesn't believe in Allah and his prophet Mohammed?Things have changed . Mohamed had encounter with fallen angels so he was deceived to believe he was talking with God’s angel. And they kill innocent peace loving people |
rejosom:Simply be humble to say You don’t know or at least say let me find out . Instead of quoting Akwa Ibom tradition you ought to be quoting the scripture . It’s God that called those animals unclean . And if you’re a farmer of such unclean plant or animal . There is option of giving money when you sell them . Invariably money was given in tithing. |
Peacefullove:Tell us |
connectikut89:You don’t have to be insultive . Are you born again . Kindly show some restrain and spiritual fruit 2 Timothy 2:24 24 And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient, it that even the gatekeepers collected out of the tithes.There is nothing new in the verse above . The same priciple still applies . The tithe to God is for the work of Ministry . Ministers who are full time get their welfare from there . Either it’s a pastor or staff OT gateman . Hope you’ve calmed down. Most pastors are volunteers . Except few . Most music ministers are volunteers . But some are employed . I learnt a church like COZA. Employ choiristers etc . If a pastor , instrumentalist etc Has a job . He is not put on allowance .when paul worked with his hand in Corinth , he took no welfare package . But he did took in some other cities I insist that God is speaking only to the priests? ( 1) God clearly BEGAN speaking to the priests in verse 1:6,In understanding prophecy you must understand Prophet can go forward and back . There are laws in interpreting prophecy . A Prophet can be talking of one person in a verse and another in the next verse . If you don’t understand context of prophecy you will think it’s still talking about the same thing or same person . Isaiah could be prophesying of himself In a verse and talking about the messiah in the next . The context of Malachi 3 from verse 7 is very clear . It takes effort to miss it |
Allta:SACRED TITHE TO GOD Leviticus 27:30. And all the tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land, or of the fruit of the tree, is the Lord's: it is holy unto the Lord. The sacred tithe to God was strictly to be managed by the priests for the sanctueary work and welfare for the levites and priests Numbers 18:21-25 21 And, behold, I have given the Levites all the tithes in Israel for an inheritance in return for their service which they serve, the [menial] service of the Tent of Meeting. God told the people to use another 10% for the poor every 3 years and another 10% for a feast .these have nothing to do with the sacred tithe to God . THE 10% FOR FEAST Deuteronomy 14:22-23 Thou shalt truly tithe all the increase of thy seed, that the field bringeth forth year by year. And thou shalt eat before the Lord thy God, in the place which he shall choose to place his name there, the tithe of thy corn, of thy wine, and of thine oil, and the firstlings of thy herds and of thy flocks; that thou mayest learn to fear the Lord thy God always. 10% FOR THE POOR EVERY 3 YEARS Deuteronomy 14:28-29 At the end of three years thou shalt bring forth all the tithe of thine increase the same year, and shalt lay it up within thy gates: And the Levite, (because he hath no part nor inheritance with thee,) and the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, which are within thy gates, shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied; that the Lord thy God may bless thee in all the work of thine hand which thou doest. |
rejosom:Psalms 22:25 (KJV) 25 My praise shall be of thee in the great congregation: I will pay my vows before them that fear him. Mark 12:41 (KJV) 41 And Jesus sat over against the treasury, and beheld how the people cast money into the treasury: and many that were rich cast in much. |
Peacefullove:As expected Banters come when Scriptural Evidence stands indisputable like rock |
Peacefullove:Clever escape there wrong logicThe church of the Old Testament is a parallel . They were called out of Egypt and separated from other nation (type of the world) Exodus 19:6 (KJV) 6 And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation. . . 1 Peter 2:9 (KJV) 9 But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation. . Every Jew were preachers and Yet God set among them dedicated ministers . Same for the church . 1 Corinthians 12:28 (KJV) 28 And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues. |
rejosom:You give it in God’s house . And waka commot either you’re rich or poor you give . Mark 12:41 (KJV) 41 And Jesus sat over against the treasury, and beheld how the people cast money into the treasury: and many that were rich cast in much. you give to God , you give to the poor , you give to your Neighbour . |
Peacefullove:Prove it : Every Christian preach the gospel , yes or no ? thus every Christians should then collect tithe grin grinWere every Jew not priests and holy in a sense ?. Yet there were devoted tribe concentrated Paul was talking about full time ministers . |
rejosom:Who’s teaching you such ? You worship God with offering . Only God receives offering . It’s alms you give the poor . If you have contrary opinion show us from scripture . |
Peacefullove:Neither should we pray or give offering na . Abi? |
Peacefullove:It’s called what ? do u also fast twice a week ?That’s not the point . The point is that tithe is given with cash from income Chery picking, as at then, the levitical priesthood was still in full force , Are there levite priests today ?Yes , by principle . Levites represents full time ministers in God’s house 1 Corinthians 9:13-14 Do ye not know that they which minister about holy things live of the things of the temple? and they which wait at the altar are partakers with the altar? even so hath the Lord ordained that they which preach the gospel should live of the gospel. Ask yourself what Melchizedek a Levite ? |
rejosom:Sorry ma You don't want to learn?Sorry ma Well since you brought tithe up....tithe was a tax system but never in coins.Let me ask you a question : How does a dog seller or unclean animal seller give tithe ? |
Jesusgirl92:Kindly ask him . That’s even if he gives ![]() Mark 12:41 (KJV) 41 And Jesus sat over against the treasury, and beheld how the people cast money into the treasury: and many that were rich cast in much Luke 18:12 (MSG) 12 I fast twice a week and tithe on all my income.' . |
rejosom:It’s about tax vs giving To God Tithe and offering is given to God tax is given to Caesar period |
rejosom:Giving to God could either be cash or kind . So what do you think jesus was talking about |

? I did not see that coming. Which verse of the Bible taught you that? Did you read that in your Pastor's publication? So when Daniel was interpreting the prophecy of Jeremiah concerning Jerusalem and Babylon, what were the laws of prophesy he applied? The way you people just coin things into this faith sha, y'all could write a new Bible.
