There is only one requirement for receiving rewards and that is work.


That is not true. Even if you do nothing you would get a reward, even if you would not like the rewards but you will get one as the parable of the talent has shown.

Tithe in the scriptures is not money,,it's food or material things that should be shared among the orphans,widows and the Levites,,check through the scriptures you will see that even you the one who brings the tithe can eat from the the tithe you brought.the book of Malachi that most pastor quote to scare their gullible followers say"bring all the tithes so that their will be meat in my store house..it is just dogma that started with the Catholic church and later protestants and now pentecostals that changed tithe to money...the scripture never said that check your Bible very well... remember Christ said "I don't think I will meet the gospel(truth) when I come back"

Tithe is the biggest scam in history
Re: What Is The Significance Of Tithe In The Bible? by AntiChristian: 7:21am On Jan 15, 2023
10,000 heads * N10,000 = N100,000,000

10,000 heads * N20,000 =N200,000,000

More head more dough!
More earnings more dough!

Money is the chariot of evangelism!

Back this up with the scriptures.
I am not a Christian but I know that tithing is not scriptural for a Christian.

Without giving it will be difficult to receive, Tithe is not a tool for salvation but it's surely the one for blessing simply the principle of life
can you back it up with passages in the bible?

Get well soon.
Your case is even worse than those who believe tithes are a command for Christians.
Get a Bible and read the parable of the talents because it's obvious you have never read it. You probably heard someone talking about it and boom, you used it.
Matt. 25:14-30. Focus on verses 26 (you can not reap when you do not sow) and 28 (those who refuse to work will lose even the little they have).

I hope you are not confusing reward with punishment though.
Reward in this context is a desirable outcome.

Payment of tithe is in the bible
The levites and the priest must not till or have any share in the land that was shared between the children of Israel that's why they eat from the offerings brought into the house of God and it was commanded by God.
READ the BIBLE you will see the story inside and the tithe part also.
Who are the Levites?

If only Levites should receive tithe, then does that explain why even Jesus didn't collect it?
If yes, then why is Pastor segun from Osun state and Bishop Chinedu from Anambra collecting tithes?

Tithing was a means of assisting the levithes who had no inheritance and to support priesthood Deut 14 Vs 22. Downward. . But as Christ came and Christianity started it was no longer the in-thing. Voluntary contribution was encouraged. (2cor 8:12).

you have said the truth and only the truth. But many Christians won't accept this because of cognitive dissonance.
Even Jesus himself didn't collect tithe because he wasn't a Levite.
Now pastor Muyiwa from Ijebu ode and Chinedu from Okija thinks he has the authority to collect tithe.

It's why I see Christians as not vet smart people. Someome will use a book to deceive you jusy because you lack the mental rigour to read it by yourself.

Which windows?? grin you read a book or a story and without proper and critical research and logical reasoning, you believed in it. All books were written by men for two reasons: 1. For Profit and influence. 2. For recognition

Is punishment not also a reward? Did you not hear Christ Say "they have their reward?"

Is wages not a reward?

Obviously you thought reward was only good. You did not see that their is also evil reward too.

Tithe in the Bible is not money,,it is food or other material things that is 10% of your total benefit or earning,,the the scriptures says that if the place of worship is too far you should sell whatever you are using to pay your tithe because of the heaviness of the burden but when you get to the place you are to pay your tithe use the money to buy whatever your soul want and share it to the orphan,widow and don't forget the Levites,,the scriptures says the orphans and widows comes first even before the Levites,and your are to give them yourself not the Levites sharing on your behalf,,check through the Bible,,,if you have online Bible just Google tithe and you will see,,tithe as money and not food started with the modern churches.even the Malachi they quote to scare you says"bring all the tithe so that there will be meat (food)in my house.

Sir,,tithe is for the widows and orphans first,before the levites.besides most Pentecostal p sees the old testament as not as effective as the new but why do you dwell more on tithe which is also and old testament law.

All you religious people stop trying to convince or influence people with your religion. I am not religious and I live happily with no urge to influence anybody to have the same faith I have. Because of members and more profit, your G.Os and pastors whatever will you send guys to go do evangelism(marketing) for them while they sit at home with family doing whatever and you guys keep doing afflilate marketing for them selling their products and not getting paid but being told your reward is in heaven that is only Imaginary and a place you haven't even seen or been to. Christianity is like affliate marketing schemes that doesn't pay. If you like don't believe me and keep waiting for an unending world to end for you to get your Imaginary reward. Just live a good life, don't hurt others and work and enjoy yourself the way you like.

You can't become a Christian because you choose to at anytime. No sir, it is exactly like a marriage, you need God's Consent and approval also to become a Christian and I don't think He would give it to you. (But that is between you and Him).

To your question, His Pronouncements on tithes is very clear if a person truly loves God he would see what God Said and that tithe cannot just be paid to any Obinna, Adeboye or Ismailia.
