A tithe is 1/10th of your earnings which the Bible instructs you to give to the Church.

when you give to the poor and needy, it's called Almsgiving. the Bible also teaches christians to do that.

Tithe (given to God) and Almsgiving (given to the Needy) are different.

God bless you.

What is the essence of tithe? As in, what is tithe used for? Pls tell me.

ITbomb:
Very wrong
Tithe is specifically for the upkeep of the Temple or Church in this case (and people working in there)
That doesn't mean you should not help the beggar if you have any other money

Tithing is not compulsory, but participate in church upkeep, and always help the poor. Christianity is about loving and helping those around u. Helping the poor is the doctrine Jesus emphasized much in His doctrine about good morality.

Pray to God and always love your neighbor. That love can be shown in many ways.

People just open churches and be shouting tithe here and there as the gateway to heaven or prosperity....it is misleading. They use it to enrich themselves cos the highest giver is revered while the person giving a lot of his time and energy is not recognised.

Simran94:

Tithe is different from Alms.
Jesus said Tithe is for the House of God, while you give alms to the needy

Jesus rebuked the teachers of the law who paid tithes but neglected the really important things - justice and mercy and honesty. Matthew 23:23.
Kindly mention a place in the Bible where Jesus said people should pay tithes for the house of God.
I'll like to know.

helinues:
Can't really remember the last time I stepped on church not to talk about giving tithes.

I give my money to those who truly deserved it. Mostly unknown people like beggars and those who are desperately in need

You get sense die. May God bless you abundantly.

chatinent:
I think the main person who needs to be given anything is the beggar rather than the other rich beggar who uses subtle means to extort it from you with the threat of you roasting in hell fire as a spirit when you die.

Chop knuckle abeg. Your head get oil. God bless you

■Tithing, in the Name of Jesus Christ, is sin against Almighty God.

■Giving offering to your churches, in the Name of Jesus Christ, is sin against Almighty God.

■Making your vows in your churches, in the Name of Jesus Christ, is sin against Almighty God.

Very true. God bless you

Giving it to a beggar is simply a work of charity, it is never a tithe. The bible says you should take it to the house of God. That's a very simple instruction. Are you sure you are a Christian? A good Christian should not be struggling with where to pay his tithe. It's not your business how a tithe is been used, it's God's business. If the priest/pastor like, let him eat it alone. Remember what happened to Eli's children when they treated God's sacrifice with contempt, they were killed in war. Always let the Bible be your guide as a Christian.

The word of God expressly commands that you bring all the tithes into His store house (God's house). You can make extra provision for beggars.

The challenge people have these days is that they want to help God manage the resources He has commanded to be brought to His house simply because they believe the resources are being mismanaged. Yet it does not change God's command.

Yours is to bring the tithe into His store house, the management rests on the leadership of the house and to God they shall give account.

Therefore, take your tithes to God as He has commanded and leave the management to those whose responsibility it is. The question whether they are properly managed or not should be between them and God.

The reason why Jesus rebuked them was because they refused to help the needy, not because they were giving tithes.
Go and read the book of Malachi 3 VS 10.
Malachi 3:10, NIV: "Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this,' says the LORD Almighty, 'and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that there will not be room enough to store.
Jesus said in Luke:
But woe to you Pharisees! For you pay tithe of mint and rue and every kind of garden herb, and yet disregard justice and the love of God; but these are the things you should have done without neglecting the others.”
See this bolded part, "But these are the things you should have done(which are Justice and Love of God) without neglecting the others(Tithe)

The whole concept of tithe is "bring ye all the tithes into my storehouse that there may be food in my house"

It's fine if you don't believe in it, you may not even be wrong, only God really knows....but if you are not taking it to the storehouse of God then I don't think it counts as tithe anymore....

You can get the blessings of God by your charity but that personal validation that the op is looking for to clear his fear of being wrong cannot be gotten from the concept of tithe as seen in the bible

I am happy that you know this verse, but you need to read it with understanding.

Jesus said in that passage ' this you ought to have done and not to have left the other undone'.

Jesus did not condemn them for paying tithes but for believing that paying tithes would give them good rating with God irrespective of how they lived their lives.

He challenged them to be upright and still should not stop paying their tithes.

I hope this helps.

Happy Sunday.

The way to pay your tithe

youngdave78:
I was wondering if it's a most to take your tithes to church?

if you feel like give to the poor but don't call it tithe. tithe is one tenth of your income which you give in church, every of your givings is rewarded by God. so stop looking for acknowledgment from man. give quietly that's all

jclassiq:

What is the essence of tithe? As in, what is tithe used for? Pls tell me.

Tithe is meant to ensure there is meat in the house of God as stated in Malachi 3:10.

its just like asking if you are to use money for your feeding and give to neighbor.give to Cesar what belong to cesar then give to God what belong to God

mohims:

Will you keep kwayet?

Your boldness and intimidation will not and cannot change God's expectations from you or any other person.

The easier way is to come into God's will for your life.

youngdave78:
I was wondering if it's a most to take your tithes to church?

its just asking if to use the money meant for paying tax and give it to the poor.when government comes after you the poor will give it back to you to pay them.pay your tithe as God commands and also give the poor

It's wrong. You give alms not tithe to beggers

EnemyofGod22:
Jesus Christ, Angels, Satan and God doesn't exist.





Know this and have peace of mind.

Ah!

Some of the questions you people ask here sha....
Tithe is only 10% of your increase.

If you got 10k, your tithe is 10% of it.
If you got 100k, 1m, 500m, 120b, even #100(hundred naira) same 10% applies to it.
And it is meant for the house of God.
If you hear that someone gave a tithe of #50m, it means he has #500m.

You considering if to give it to God or a beggar means you haven't started giving yet.
Tithe is what you bring to the Temple. Alms giving is for beggars.
Read Matt 6.

Does evil men, JuJu, diabolic and Occultic powers exist?

mohims:

You get sense die. May God bless you abundantly.

The sense you apply to God's words and commands is what hinders you from simple obedience to His words, because most times, it does not make sense to you.

Be like Peter, he has applied the best techniques at the best time in fishing yet did not get fishes. Jesus told him to cast his net into the sea and said, 'we have toiled in the night which is the best time yet could not get anything, but at your word I will do it and he got more than he needed.

Until we stop applying our little sense to God's word, we would continue to criticise instead of participating for great harvest.

You don't have any tithe to give anywhere. You just came here to chase clout and see how you and your colleagues can bash churches and pastors.

Do you have any scripture passage to prove that? Go read Deut 14 V 22 down to know more about tithing. Tithe is meant for merry making in the presence of God, it is meant for food and drink, even alcohol according to the bible, God even said if we should convert the tithe to money if put where we are to use the tithe is far then convert that money to WHATEVER OUR HEART DESIRES, be it chicken, ram, rice, soft drink or hard drink, some scriptures says beer, if it is meant for the church or pastor why will the scripture ask us to convert it to what our heart desire? The bible says bring your tithe so that there will be meat in my house, who is the meat for if not us? Read your bible so you don't get misled by these god of men. The bible only admonish us in our merry making not to forget the Levite's who does not have inheritance amongst the children of Israel, do we still have Levite's today? NO, you go against the scripture when you pay your tithe to any man as it is not biblical. All I've said is according to the bible and not my knowledge.

. You don't give any tithe anywhere. Not even to the most deseperate beggars. Stop telling lies.

Its really hard to understand all about the bible and what's right to do most times, I have asked this same question about Tithes, for my own understanding i now understand why it most be taken to church, first it's your seed most be taken to an Alter for it's to speak for us in our faith, in every Alter there must be a sacrifices, after giving your Sacrifices to that Alter it must speak for you in everyway...
