Youngzedd:Worlexy pointed this out earlier in here and we have proceeded further on it. |

worlexy:The children of Disobedience must always ensure that every soul breaks God's Laws and have you have seen "tithe was never meant to be money" and I have seen that God hates money! |

it is well but we can be enriching the church while the needy are dying of hunger |

Youngzedd:All these on top of how other people choose to spend their money! Don't pay if you don't feel convinced. Don't bother about us tithers. |

Dtruthspeaker:Yes you are right, like the so called men of God have never taught their followers that God commanded them to eat their tithes, change it to money and use it to buy whatever they like and to also use it to help those in need. The children of disobedience, the wolf in sheep clothing have been lying to Christians for years to steal their hard earn money from them. They eat the sheep rather than protect them and have you have seen "tithe was never meant to be money" and I have seen that God hates money!A true believer should always show scriptural evidences to back up his claims and not resort into emotional blackmail. Show us where God commanded that tithes should be paid with money in the scriptures and show us who paid tithes with money in the scriptures. Shalom |

Dtruthspeaker:If a woman lie about her virginity, the men are to stone her to death. Deuteronomy 22:20-21 20 If, however, the charge is true and no proof of the young woman’s virginity can be found, 21 she shall be brought to the door of her father’s house and there the men of her town shall stone her to death. She has done an outrageous thing in Israel by being promiscuous while still in her father’s house. You must purge the evil from among you. Do you know that you're unclean for laying your hand or touching (even hand shake) a woman who's on her period? Read Leviticus 15:19-21 Are you aware that you're forbidden to wear cloth made of more than one material? Are you aware that you're forbidden to plant more than one kind of seed in a field? Read Leviticus 19 vs 19 Are you aware that you're not suppose to eat fat? Read Leviticus 3:17 Do you know that your stubborn and rebellious son should be stone to death? Read Deuteronomy 21:18-21 Do not eat catfish, shrimp, etc Leviticus 11:9-12 Do not shave your beard Leviticus 19:27 Use your head and think for a minute. Ask yourself, If I am to practice the laws, why am I not been taught about so many others and made to practice them? If I decide to pull the laws, you will stop believing so many things. You will have a serious rethink about your belief. God saw that humans are under a bondage of the law, He sent his son to save us and made the law obsolete as written in the book of Hebrew 8 vs 13. Why do you still go back to the same bondage you were lifted from? � � Galatians 5:1,4 [1]So Christ has truly set us free. Now make sure that you stay free, and don’t get tied up again in slavery to the law. [4]For if you are trying to make yourselves right with God by keeping the law, you have been cut off from Christ! You have fallen away from God’s grace. Christianity is FREEDOM from the curse of the law. Now you know ☺. Here, this single verse said it all about the law. Galatians 5 vs 14 For the entire law is fulfilled in keeping this one command: “Love your neighbor as yourself.” Many of you that claim to be Christians are under a curse without knowing it. Lets read Galatians 3 vs 10 For all who rely on the works of the law are under a curse, as it is written: “Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law.” If you're to practice a single law, you MUST practice everything there otherwise you're under a curse. The scripture said EVERYTHING not some things that suits you. Is it that you don't read the bible or you lack understanding? � � Is it not hypocrisy and devilish for someone to choose a single law in the old testament and force the people to practice it? � If we are to practice the laws in the old testament, we are to practice ALL without leaving any UNTOUCH. Ranging from burning of animals, killing your first born son and animals as first fruits. Not eating pork etc. Why should a so called Christian go to the old testament which is now obsolete and pick up a single law and force it down to the congregation because of their selfish interest. To make it worst, the congregations don't have the mind of their own. They have been brainwashed and conditioned on how to think. They fear their leaders, they are now slaves without knowing it. They will tell you don't do this, do that without you asking questions, are you a zombie? � � Christianity is a lifestyle, you're not suppose to practice the laws in the old testament. You're forbidden to practice them. You're a Christian not a Jew (Judaism). About 99% of the laws in the old testament, you don't keep. Why do you allow them to brainwash you to practice about 1% or less? If we aren't suppose to practice the law, why was it given in the first place? Galatians 3 vs 19 - 20 Why, then, was the law given at all? It was added because of transgressions until the Seed to whom the promise referred had come. The law was given through angels and entrusted to a mediator. 20 A mediator,however, implies more than one party; but God is one. I am closing with Galatians 3:13-14 13 Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, for it is written: “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a pole.”14 He redeemed us in order that the blessing given to Abraham might come to the Gentiles through Christ Jesus, so that by faith we might receive the promise of the Spirit. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brothers and sisters. Amen. - Galatians 6 vs 18 |

stagger:And where is GOD, so I can give him tithe myself. If you tell me to give it to any man representing him. Then, it's a scam. So I will rather give it to any human I feel should have it. And since the Bible says I should help the needy, I'll rather give it directly to them than use spoon to throw water in a sea. Thanks |

salt1:I broke down tithing for you with full scriptural backing. None of your GOs can debunk that. It's the pure TRUTH about tithing, sadly they won't tell you that because there's no truth in them. 2 Timothy 4:2-4 2 Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage—with great patience and careful instruction. 3 For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. 4 They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths. Revelation 22:15 Outside the city are the dogs—the sorcerers, the sexually immoral, the murderers, the idol worshipers, and all who love to live a lie. Matthew 6:23 But when your eye is unhealthy, your whole body is filled with darkness. And if the light you think you have is actually darkness, how deep that darkness is! |

God bless the op. Could you believe I once asked a pastor this same question three years ago? But the reply I got was not appealing at all. He said tithe is God's money and should be given to God only. I quoted the same passage in the Bible the op quoted but he stylishly dodged it, insisting on it's God's money and should be given to God. I just called it off cos I didn't want him to view me as someone challenging him or questioning his spirituality but I knew the truth deep within me. |

worlexy:And, behold, I have given the children of Levi all the tenth in Israel for an inheritance, for their service which they serve, even the service of the tabernacle of the congregation. Neither must the children of Israel henceforth come nigh the tabernacle of the congregation, lest they bear sin, and die. But the Levites shall do the service of the tabernacle of the congregation, and they shall bear their iniquity: it shall be a statute for ever throughout your generations, that among the children of Israel they have no inheritance. But the tithes of the children of Israel, which they offer as an heave offering unto the Lord , I have given to the Levites to inherit: therefore I have said unto them, Among the children of Israel they shall have no inheritance. And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying, Thus speak unto the Levites, and say unto them, When ye take of the children of Israel the tithes which I have given you from them for your inheritance, then ye shall offer up an heave offering of it for the Lord , even a tenth part of the tithe. Numbers 18:21-26 KJV https://bible.com/bible/1/num.18.21-26.KJV |

worlexy:All this na waste or time! Read Deuteronomy 30 vs 18 - 20 and you realize that God Himself did not include you , a Gentile, as a beneficiary of His Old Covenant Law which is instead an agreement between God and those with the blood of Jacob coursing through their veins, of which you are not. . |

Is very clear from the scripture the tithe is meant to be pay to a church of your choice so far it a church rooted in Christ. You can take a look at Malachi 3:10 |

richmond500:Tithe is 10% of income to be given to God at the place you worship. Anything outside is not tithe. If you take 10% of your income and give to the needy, it is not tithe. It can be called offering or giving benevolently. If a church decides to misappropriate any form of giving it receives from its members, you can leave the church for another. There is no law or rule in the Bible that you must remain there. Find another church that has programs that meets the needs of the needy, join them and pay your tithe there. |

dapadawee:Genesis 22 vs 18 is the blessing that came to the Gentiles through Abraham. ![]() As God Himself declared in Deuteronomy 30 vs 15 - 20 - , the Old Covenant Law has nothing to do with the Gentiles - never has and never will. God will not give to the dogs that which belongs to His people, just as Jesus Christ said. ![]() |
