I think it's high time u people started knowing the truth Abt christianity.xtianity is a continuation of pagan religion.everything u see in d bible is copied from already existing pagan religion like Hinduism and also from ancient sumerian and mesopotamian text.xtianity is not original,it is not the first religion.islam copied bible,xtianity copied ancient sumerian text.know this and know peace.investigate yourself.

If you are sinning and still paying tithe yiu are just foolish. Just give to the poor and less privilege instead. That way it shows and even God knows as you not holy you still have a good heart.

And when you help don't help cos you want God to reward you. Just help cos you love helping the poor and less privileged.
Happy Sunday

If you open your Bible you'll never find any answer to any of those questions!


Even the holy spirit doesn't have answers here!


Every Christian will just choose what to believe!
How powerful of you, that you know more than the Spirit of God Himself.

I have so many questions bordering me and I want christians in the house to help me.

1.Is it acceptable to withhold tithes if I disagree with the pastor's or the church's spending?

2. can I pay my tithe in the different church fromt the one I attended?

3. Is it correct for a pastor of a church and his family to use the church income, i.e. tithes, offering and third party income for their own use, especially since the church is not registered as their property? If no , what do you call their actions

4. Is it biblically okay for most of the pastors to ask for tithe on every Sunday? I mean why do they have to remind them every time, instead of letting people choose if they are okay to give their money!

5. can pastor says my church?

6.Which is better, tithing in a rich church where the pastor has his own flight or giving money to a street preacher?

7 .Why does my pastor make me feel guilty for not tithing when I cannot afford it?
Every Sunday instead of posting life changing messages online, they will instead be posting rubbish or asking stupid questions that doesn't add meaning to the spiritual or physical life of individuals.
If care is not taken it is a Muslim that is given the task to post what concern Christians on Sundays. Shame.

Tithing is not a part of Christianity. Only levites deserve to receive tithe. Is your pastor a levite?! No.

Giving in Christianity doesn't include tithe

Must you pay tithe at all?

Does Elon Musk pay tithes?

Does Dangote pay tithes?

If at all you must pay, must you pay to your pastor?

Just go to any church where they worship under mango tree or inside one building that's not completed and pay your tithe there.

Na dat kind pastor need your tithe not one that has three Lexus jeeps and two Benz already
You go school in another place naim you wan pay school fees elsewhere?

No dey too use sense for things of God. If you feel you no like what dem dey do you get options of changing church and paying tithe there.

But my mind dey tell me say op na atheist or tending there.
Na so dem dey do; anyhow people.

If you want your seed to yield fruit mind the soil(church). It is your duty to know the right place to sow seed just like a farmer.
If you are going to a wrong church it will affect your spiritual life,just like planting on a wrong soil.
Well said.

Is tithe compulsory? No. (1). Jesus abolished it, in new testament. (2). Lets assume Jesus didn't abolish it, Making it free will , If u do things that God hates, ur tithe is equally useless to him.
Read Mathew 23:23
Jesus never apolish tithe.Rather he encourages us to be more merciful,faithful
"
What sorrow awaits you teachers of religious law and you Pharisees. Hypocrites! For you are careful to tithe even the tiniest income from your herb gardens, but you ignore the more important aspects of the law — justice, mercy, and faith. You should tithe, yes, but do not neglect the more important things."

Only levites are qualified to receive tithes.

If you know the meaning of Levite, you will know that your pastor doesn't deserve to collect tithe

Use your tithe and take yourself out and chop good BBQ fish with good red wine and see if you will regret not paying tithe.

The problem is you been brainwashed to feel guilty each time you don’t pay your tithe and church is business now pastors enjoy 😊 good life with people money because it not going to any heaven.
They always said my church because it they business and they will protect it with everything.

I saw one of our bad friend going to pastoring school because his father own a church and very old , he want him to take over the church .

This is the most foolish comment in this thread.The Jews ran a theocracy.tithe was a tax not in Christiandon but under the Jewish law.
USA and Nigeria run a democracy so tax is paid to the government.
You should pay your tax not tithe.

My sister,giving tithes is sinning against the holy Spirit and challenging the finished work on the cross.
It is only beneficial to those collecting not those giving.
God cannot require you to bribe him with common money..infact it's an insult to give God money like a common agbero.
Your pastor don't represent God.
The only representative to God is the poor matt 25 31-46.
It's your pastors that need your money not God.God is a spirit and as the Bible says,human hands cannot serve him.

Keep wallowing in ignorance.
At first,you people say tithing is not in the new testament now you say the Jewish religion is not Christian.

Are we not going to be judged be the same God.is the word of God just for a particular religion?

My brother if you don't know and don't know that you don't know...you know what you are.

Christianity started after the death and resurrection of Christ.
When Jesus was questioning the teachers of religion in the synagogues,was there Christianity?
