Do I have to repeat this, everyone knows through the Word, Jesus was under the law, but your understanding of {Matthew 23:23} as tithing Christians this scripture is used to lie against the truth. Plus {Mark 12:17} and this is another scripture being used out of place, just for the tithers greed.
If only you read the Word of God equally, instead relying on just one.
It makes life difficult for you, that you have many members on the same page, I understand why none of you learn anything-your job is simple, by the push of a button your page is solved.
I don't believe you are saved-one of your members is a JW.
{Galatians 2:21, 5:4} For righteousness comes through the law, Christ died in vain-You have become estrangled from Christ, you who attempt to be justified by the law, you have falling from grace.
You don’t have to insult tithers and givers . Just because you don’t .

Matthew 22:21 (KJV Strong's)
Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's; and unto God the things that are God's.

MuttleyLaff:
What is giving Satan sleepless nights, is the fear of people becoming aware of the revolutionary way of giving, which at all times, is devoid of a fixed percentage or tithe
That's personal opinion ,not based on any scripture.

Nothing personal
Glad to hear that .


I need to correct a lie.
I wonder why some, don’t want others to see the error when and where they are being misled and demanded to give tithe
It's not man that demanded. It's the word.

There is no must in giving, talkless of a must to give tithe.
There is no must in fasting and prayer ether . It's an issue of necessity . You do it you get the benefit . You give to the poor you get the benefit .
It is nowhere written, to say exactly how much must be given or must be done.
There was no written document in the days of Abraham . Probably because he was illiterate but moses was well Schooled and oracle of God was penned down for reference in his days . They are still available for us today .

It however, is written, that, without prejudice, you give how much you have decided in your heart, you give what you are please with and won't be sorrowful about it at the end of or after the giving
You didn't state your reference

The percentage you give is not fixed or stipulated.
You can decide to give 1%,
Or decide to give 10% today, as in 10% equals a tenth or tithe.
Decide to give half or 50% tomorrow,
Decide to give all or 100%, the following day.
Decide to give nothing or 0% another day
Decide to give 1% again some other day

As we can see, there is nothing fixed.
Giving is not cast in a tithe or 10% stone.
Anyone that tells you different,
has a low understanding of each tithe mentions in the bible, particularly the tithe Abraham performed
and doesn't appreciate the revolutionary way of giving for the purpose of the Kingdom
Abraham was a prophet . Prophets do have revelations of divine principles . If God birthed the mystery of the tithe through Abraham just as he birthed prayer and worship in the days of Seth . Why would we question such things especially if God didn't reveal anything comtrary . God has ministers and prophets in every generation Abrahan , Enoch had insight into Gods mysteries . I will appreciate you read the BOOK OF ENOCH .

To justify 'principles' described not by Christ

his apostles,
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.

esere826:
Like I said about Petra1 recently, he has indeed tried by bringing in some "logic"
Thanks to him, For the first time in my many years as a christian, I have seen new points of view in the pro-tithe argument
Well it’s Not a new logic . I have been saying the same thing for years. And my point is this . I believe there is something special about the Tithe . And I will explain . You know the anti tithing campaign has been hijacked by non givers who want to excuse their greedy conscience .

Tithing is only a small portion of giving . The original antitihers are honest people who feel tithing limits them they give far beyond . So they feel a christian doesn’t need restriction . How could I be giving 100 naira out of 1,000 I could just give the whole 1,000 . Some people even began to give 20% 30% . I was giving 20% as tithe for many years until I studied it again and Said to myself . If God says 10 it should be 10 no more no less. That doesn’t stop any other things I want to give .

Now the issue here is . Some individual are just anti church . They portray church as a 419 centre . They are against every form of giving . They only use tithe as a launch pad . They claim tithe is for isreal offering is for the church . My point to them is that both tithe and offering were mentioned in the law . Including fasting and prayer . Why is it tithe that is on trial . They campaign for the poor . But alms for the poor was for isrea also . Instead of answering the question they resort into banter and personal attacks. We have to be honest if we’re seeking truth.

What kind of giving do you do ? Or you don’t give at all?
Christianity Etc › Re: The Error Of Daddy Freeze . by petra1(op):
plainbibletruth:
1. Why have you not been able to show us the "principle" on TITHING from the life of the Church in the New Testament.

2. Show us and the matter will be settled once and for all
The church didn’t need to make a new law on tithing they already have the scriptures . Paul also gave a parallel illustration in 1 cor 9:13-14

3. Is the Christian under GRACE?
Sure

If so, what does that mean as far as his giving is concerned? Focus your response on giving or tithing so that the matter is clear. Don't bring in other issues that may confuse us. Any other deductions will be mere SPECULATION on your part.

There is no confusion where honesty is . Kindly look at the spirit of the illustration . It’s a point I was bringing out. We are not afraid of the truth are we ?

[quote]4. One case of ours is this: If tithing is as serious as you guys are making it out to be, to such an extent that a church leader will attach curse to it, then it is critical that we see where the CHURCH is told she must practice it
The curse is a principle from the Bible . And it’s not over tithe only . He said they rob him
In TITHES and OFFERING . So you can’t be giving offering without giving the tithe . It’s hypocricy

5. So, please, in case we missed it, show us again this "principle", AS IT RELATES TO TITHING, from the epistles since you said it cuts across dispensations.

well going with ur logic, all of Jesus teachings are only for the Israelite cos for all the years he was on earth he spoke to only ppl in Israel but Paul the apostle said we are now the Israel of God in christ whether jews or gentiles
Beautiful analogy . If tithing is only for the new then alms giving , fasting , prayer , offering , is only for the Jews . That’s what I’ve been trying to comunicate . Why will Satan single out the tithe. It only confirms the spiritual importance of the tithe

Did daddy freeze hit a soft spot in you? or do you in person profit from tithe and feel the need to protect the pastorpreneurship business that has fed you this far? or have you been dreaming of participating in pastorpreneurship business?

You have been trying hard to convince the sheeples that tithing is a mandatory spiritual principle. Daddy freeze really did shake you grin

Suleiman must see to it that a lesson is made out of this girl...so that another nonsense like this would not repeat.

His only crime was speaking against killing of Christians in Kaduna and fulani herdsmen...Zombies were let loose on him..a sarrki or two started attacking the man of God, an hungerbad and an antiwailer plus other children of hate started screaming on the top of their voices...

Look at where we are today...Keyamo has ran away..Otobo is missing...

i refuse to be carried away by the Grievous error being circulated by one archdevil from hell called Daddy freeze,who in his characteristically demonic manner,is trying to upturn well established scriptures to stand on thier head. As a matter of fact,tithing predates Adeboye or any other pastor. Tithes have become part of christianity since the times of the Apostles and it has its roots in the scriptures.Daddy freeze and his admirers can spend the rest of their lives advocating against it,it aint gonna change nothing.

it is obvious that you lack understanding because if u dont understand what you are saying.... to start with everything freeze tells you is what he has read from the bible... so if you say he lied that means you dont read and understand its in det 14. read 4 urself
Did you read my post at all? Or just the title carried you away . I know many Nigerians hardly read . Kindly read my post .

and secondly the tithes where to be collected by the levites so ur pastor whose ancestor is not levi has no right to collect it cause they are not levites and nothing like spiritual livites. that is what they decive you with.
Levite only collected tithes and offerings under levitical the order . Was Melchizedek who tithe from Abraham a Levite? . Christ is our high priest now in the order of Melchizedek . We are not in Levitical order

also, the desciples only collected offerings and not tithe they dare not collect tithe because they are not levites themselves dont be confused. and dont conclude for the bible that it was not mentioned means they never practised it....
Your are wrong . Levites and priests collected the offerings and tithes . They were the ministers of Gods sanctuary Then. In this new dispensation God still has ministers whom he has called . Most of them are volunteers few are full time.

acts 6 explains even why offerings they collected started there was murmur in the church so they started collecting those offerings to meet the needs of the members of the body of christ and the bible recorded that nobody lacked after that...
Don’t talk about what you don’t know . Someone like you should rather be asking questions and not trying to teach . The priblem in the early church was about serving food not about offering

Acts 6:1
. Those who spoke only Greek complained that their widows were being discriminated against, that they were not being given as much food in the daily distribution as the widows who spoke Hebrew.

When jesus walked the earth, who paid him tithe? When he told his disciple to go from door to door preaching the gospel, he told them to only wear a sandal and accept food and shelter when given.

Sure you’re wrong. You give your tithe in your local assembly. What you give to the poor is called alms . You can’t use one giving to replace another . Just as you cannot give to God what you ought to give to your parents . Jesus Eben rebuked that

Mark 7:11 (NLT)
11 But you say it is all right for people to say to their parents, ‘Sorry, I can’t help you. For I have vowed to give to God what I would have given to you.’


You see there are different kinds of givings . You have done well by doing giving of alms What you should do is to go and give your tithe in your local church if you still can
