GOD is a GOD of Principles.

As for those who Carelessly make use of Whatever the people give into GOD'S House! You are Launching yourself and Generation into Generational Problems.
Where did God ask for money as tithes?

Isn’t it scriptural for tithers to eat their tithes as clearly written out in Deuteronomy 14 v 22-29 hmmm?

As it should be. That’s what Christianity is really about
That is not how it should be, let every local church controls their income while wealthier congratulations sends help/relive to poor/poorer congratulations.
That was the doctrine/practice passed down by the apostles.
This is more like palliative similar to the way the Nigerian government treats her people, we've built a system that is in variants to God's standard, it will be really hard to crush these systems

You are doling out 10% of the 10% you collected from your members while keeping the 90% for yourself and building institutions that will charge them cutthroat rates with their own donations.

LOL. Yorubas are your Colonial Masters after the British left.

Still doesn’t change the fact that…

1. God never asked for gentile believers to practice tithing.

2. God never asked for money as tithes.

3. The pulpit bandits have never ever preached that it is scriptural for tithers to eat their tithes! Deuteronomy 14 v 22-29.


Give out of a cheerful heart without compulsion, deceit or expecting something in return.

Jesus clearly said in his own words, when you help the least of your brethren, you are helping him (Jesus) - Matthew 25
The nearest thing to the Jewish tithe tradition is the bazaar of Catholic and other churches.

Deut. 14: 22-29 (NIV)

22 Be sure to set aside a tenth of all that your fields produce each year. 23 Eat the tithe of your grain, new wine and olive oil, and the firstborn of your herds and flocks in the presence of the Lord your God at the place he will choose as a dwelling for his Name, so that you may learn to revere the Lord your God always. 24 But if that place is too distant and you have been blessed by the Lord your God and cannot carry your tithe (because the place where the Lord will choose to put his Name is so far away), 25 then exchange your tithe for silver, and take the silver with you and go to the place the Lord your God will choose. 26 Use the silver to buy whatever you like: cattle, sheep, wine or other fermented drink, or anything you wish. Then you and your household shall eat there in the presence of the Lord your God and rejoice. 27 And do not neglect the Levites living in your towns, for they have no allotment or inheritance of their own.

28 At the end of every three years, bring all the tithes of that year’s produce and store it in your towns, 29 so that the Levites (who have no allotment or inheritance of their own) and the foreigners, the fatherless and the widows who live in your towns may come and eat and be satisfied, and so that the Lord your God may bless you in all the work of your hands.

Nonsense claim! 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

Are Catholics Israelites that they would be said to abide by a Constitutional Law and celebrate a Festival meant only for those who were of the former nation of Israel in the land of Canaan ruled over by the bloodline of Jacob? 🙄🙄🙄🙄

Churches do many things unannounced. That's why critics and haters are always confused about the growth and dominance of the church despite their attacks. I don't even pay tithe. But I won't ever forget how Living Faith church paid my school fees for one session in the university through their annual scholarship programmes. They paid for many too.

JESUS CHRIST CAME TO GIVE SALVATION,HE NEVER ASKED ANYONE FOR A PENNY AS CONDITION FOR YOU TO GET RICH QUICK. angry
JESUS CHRIST ASKED THE RICH TO SELL HIS POSSESIONS AND GIVE TO THE POOR...THIS IS ABOUT EQUITABLE BALANCE IN SOCIETY. sad
MANY BOOKS IN THE BIBLE SAID BRING ALL TITHE AND OFFERING FOR PLENTY MEAT IN HOUSE OF GOD FOR ALL FAITHFULS ,BUT NOT FOR PASTOR ALONE TO LIVE LARGE SELFISHLY IN VANITY COMPETITION WITH MAMMON WORSHIPERS.
THANK GOD DR DAMINA HAS EXPOSED ALL THE PASTORS THAT COMMERCIALIZED GOSPEL IN NIGERIA AND AFRICA,YET SOME OF THEM ARE STILL SHAMELESSLY COMMITING THIS CRIME AGAINST THE GOSPEL. angry

Because many of those churches also have to pay their staff in many of those instuitutions eg universites run by churches....at rates the government pays, without any access to government money. (As one of the GO of a large pentecostal church once said...the only help he got from government was land acqusition ie speeding up the process, he still had to pay for the land either way!).

Yeah, I know, maybe we should 'help poor members' by charging cheap fees in church run universites...but that means that the lecturers and non academic staff would have to take cuts in salaries. Also, a lot of these churches are running missions too...that means cuts in those areas...

Nothing is cheap in this world. The best the churches can do is either get their richer members to fund scholarships for poor students, or forget about running universites whatsoever.
Jesus or the Disciples had schools? ...or any hired staff? What is supposed to be the primary purpose of the church? ... has that purpose been achieved? Is preparing people for earthly success ... for material gain a purpose of the church?... training people to gain the whole world but lose their souls?. What is the purpose of tithes/offerings as set out in the Bible? Is it used as stated? ...was tithes supposed to be collected from the poor? I can ask sooo many questions and the blind followers will find dumb answers....all in defence of their Daddy .....or Mummy.

"When you give tithes ...it is not me you're giving to...it is not for me...I am only collecting it for God ...the tithes is for God ... not me."

When does he hand it over to God??....does he know if God keeps it here on earth?...or He takes it to Heaven?

YOU'RE BEING VERY UNREASONABLE, IF CHURCHES MAKE USE OF THE MONEY THEY GET FOR HUMANITY THEN FLAMBOYANCY WON'T BE THERE, THAT'S THE TRUTH STOP BEING SENTIMENTAL AND FACE THE TRUTH. HOW RICH WAS JESUS AND THE APOSTLES, THEY WEREN'T BECAUSE WHEN THEY GET THEY IMMEDIATELY GIVE TO THOSE IN NEED, BUT WE EVEN TRICK THE POOR TO BRING AND WE COLLECT AND ADD TO THE OVERFLOWING WEALTH WE OBTAINED BY TRICKS, SELLING HEAVEN AND BELIEVE THAT GOD WILL PROVIDE TO THEM. WHY CAN'T GOD PROVIDE TO YOU WHO CLAIM TO HAVE MORE GRACE.

Last I checked, the over 2 billion who claim affiliation to even this religion do not all live in Nigeria. 🤔

Of course, I should add that alll religions are pretty much the same in this .. founded on mental delusions and confusion. 🤔
dont mind retards, they will say God is unknowable, if He is unknowable then you are not qualified to teach anybody anything about Him

Suddenly, they are doing it as it should be meaning you are aware they were all doing the wrong—wickedness or even evil aka sin, in Christian lingo— before this point, abi? 😑😑😑😑

Anyways, why now? I bet it has something with more people finally waking up to their many lies before this point. 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
You are the one sounding as if you know everything happening within the individual churches. Christianity forbids all the publication churches are embarking upon now due to societal pressures, and I am one of the real beneficiaries from my childhood till date.

Get it right.

Christianity has bowed to societal pressures, according to you, and that somehow makes it any different from what other businesses have had to do to keep their customer base happy how? undecided

2. Care to explain to us how you have been this real beneficiary from childhood you claim to be? undecided

WHEN MISSIONARIES CAME TO NIGERIA WITH THE GOSPEL, THEY ESTABLISHED SCHOOLS AND CHURCHES AND WENT INTO THE VILLAGES BEGGING PEOPLE TO ATTEND FREE. EMPOWERING THE POOR.

A church that supports a criminal government that is enpoverishing the masses rather than tell them the truth and then start looking for ways to help the people is a scam or questionable.
