The man pay his tithe according to matt 25:35, instead of Malachi 3:10
that's what I also do.... Most Nigerian pastors will never preach the former but the latter.
in European and American churches, tithes and offerings are mostly used in helping the poor and needy, rather than acquiring luxury.... Are Nigerian churches better than theirs or after they not also qualified for heaven?

Annunaki:
Is he supposed to pay tithes in the first instance


Paying TITHE (as of today), has NOTHING to do with being a Christian or serving God or being RICH.

You can pay tithe and still be very poor
You can pay tithe and still end-up on the wrong side of God
You can refuse to pay tithe and still be poor
You can refuse to pay tithe and still be acceptable to God
You can pay tithe and still be rich and still be acceptable to God
...and You can be rich, pay tithe and still be far from God.


God is a "spirit" and can only be served IN THE SPIRIT.

[size=14pt]"Monetized Tithe" is a scam invented by "Pimping Pastors" and "Mugun-Masters" (Sorry, l mean MOG!)[/size]



Be GUIDED please.

BTW : I have never paid tithe since l started working in life..... and l am not anywhere near being poor.
But mind you, l do "help less-fortunate" people a lot.... and l do it in 'secrecy' so that the God who sees in secret, receives the glory.

I'm so feeling your comments on this thread. Like you said, let everyone act as he has been convinced. Afterall, religion is all about serving your imagination tongue

That was Apostle Paul comment on Sabbath or other issues like tithe. Only do things you're convinced about. If youre doing something because of necessity or compulsion, then you're wrong..........

Tithe: The biggest and well coined scam in Christendom.

We are all blessed when we were accepted in the priesthood of Christ. How then have you been scammed into believing that you'll be blessed when you pay tithe? Give and give and give even when you don't have. That's where prosperity lies, not tithe.

Come to think of it, my parents have been tithing since their childhood yet they are not richer than Bill Gate. Gate is still richer than them combined, yet he doesn't pay tithe, but he gives more unconditionally.

Tithe is religious fraud

STOP being mischeivious!

When you make a Biblical quote, dont just write the few lines that catches your fancy!

"...bring ye all the tithe into d storehouse that there may be FOOD..."Mal 3:10.

Bring "WHAT" ........ into my House?

Is it bring MONEY into my House?
is it bring PRODUCE into my house?
Of what purpose is that thing that is required to be brought into "my house"?
Does that purpose still apply in todays monetised world?


As Christians, we are "FOLLOWERS of Christ's EXAMPLE" ......... that i why we are called Christ-ians.

Did Christ EVER PAY TITHE, even once?
Answer is "No"!

So, if paying Tithe was that important, how come Christ who we follow and is our example, never paid tithe, even once
? undecided undecided

Why would any sane person be giving his hard earned money to some scammer in the name of some invincible sky daddy when you can make serious impact with that 10percent in the life of that hungry kid on the street .. It just ain't right..

By the way, how is this news? What concerns anyone with what anybody does with his 10percent?

Hahaha. Thanks again.

It's not easy for one to question the objectivity of a belief he's held for decades but if one must progress, such must happen. It took me more than a decade to differentiate between the Jews traditions and Christianity.

Na hin sabi its a free world. See Heaven see Hell. See Gods word, if you like follow if u like disfollow. No one forces anyone to pay tithe. All i know is his riches is for a while our time on earth is so short. Where we will open our eyes after we have closed it up in death here matters alot. The chance and choice to choose it is NOW.
Re: Ghana Millionaire Says He Does Not Pay Tithe by Imars(m): 11:56am On Nov 21, 2015
This man knows what he is saying. Christ is the foundation of Christianity. Christ is not d foundation of a church which is a break away from another church, cos Christ (The Son of God and God Almighty) cannot bring division among His children. He gave us the greatest commandment ‘Love’ which human race is yet to fully practice. In unity we stand and divided we fall. The churches are just divided groups.

read mattew 25:35


Matt 25:35 Reads= For I was an Hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger and ye took me in........

This is Jesus speaking. Did he in anyway mentioned about the Poor/Needy?


Please this does not explain my Point.


Remember in that same Mattew, Jesus healed the sick cast out demons, cured all kinds of diseases to as many that were afflicted in one way or the other. But when it was the turn of those who were Poor, the Bible says JESUS MINISTERED/THOUGHT THEM THE WORLD. [He didn't pray for them to get wealth, he showed them THE principles to get wealth]

Don't get me wrong bro, God/Jesus is VERY COMPASSIONATE WHEN IT COMES TO THE POOR. He has compassion for them meaning: he can't stand seeing them Hungry........ [Remember the 5loaves of Bread and 2 fishes]? That's what am talking about.
Re: Ghana Millionaire Says He Does Not Pay Tithe by lastpage: 12:04pm On Nov 21, 2015
Everyone should ponder on the following verses:

Deuteronomy 14:22 - 29 KJV
“Then shalt thou turn it (your Tithe) into money, and bind up the money in thine hand, and shalt go unto the place which the LORD thy God shall choose. And you shall bestow that money (use it to buy) for whatsoever your soul desires , for oxen, or for sheep, or for wine, or for strong drink, or for whatsoever your soul desires; and you shall eat there before the LORD your God, and you shall rejoice, you, and your household

Please take good note of those phrases l have colored in red!


*The Bible says TITHE is about FOOD/FARM PRODUCE
*But if that "Produce" is too heavy to carry to the place "the Lord shall choose", SELL the PRODUCE and CONVERT IT TO CASH
*Take the MONEY in your hand and USE IT TO BUY WHATSOEVER YOUR (OWN) SOUL DESIRES! kiss undecided (I love this part)
*The Bible gives example of what you can buy (if your soul desires it).... and notice that among them is ALCOHOL! (strong wine)!
(when next they tell you God forbids drinking of alcohol, take a bottle on me, as God bless you!)
*Then SIT DOWN AND EAT YOUR TITHE (having use it to buy food and drinks) in the presence of your God
(Note that it did not say "Give it to church or give it to your Pastor) undecided grin grin
*After eating well and having a good drink on top, Bible says REJOICE, with your HOUSEHOLD in the presence of Jehovah your God


This is the whole essence of Tithe. USE IT TO BUY FOOD AND DRINKS, CONSUME IT BEFORE GOD AND REJOICE BEFORE THE ALMIGHTY.




Again, see Deuteronomy 14:22 - 29 KJV


Thou shalt truly tithe all the increase of thy seed, that the field bringeth forth year by year.

And thou shalt eat before the LORD thy God, in the place which he shall choose to place his name there, the tithe of thy corn, of thy wine, and of thine oil, and the firstlings of thy herds and of thy flocks; that thou mayest learn to fear the LORD thy God always


Does anyone wonder why the word EAT! EAT!! is repeated along with the word TITHE?

Hecause our God wants us to be happy and rejoice in his presence
He wants us to "fear his NAME", as the one who provides all these things for us



If you have not started "EATING YOUR TITHE"..... better start now so that your God in Heaven can see you "be Happy and rejoice" with your household, in HIS PRESENCE!


I nor fit shout, if you want to dash your Pastor, your tithe... so that Only the Pastor can eat and rejoice before God, that is your problem!
God will continue to enlarge your Pastor while you continue to wallow in Poverty.

May God open our eyes and ears (Amen)

Give him 2 years let's know if he will still be a millionaire,You can be robbing God and God is silent,but coming out openly to maintain that no one can force u pay 10% of "Your Money" is risky.If God hears it,then he is a gonner.

read deuteronomy 14v22-29. Thank me later
Deuteronomy 14:22-29 New International
Version (NIV)
Tithes
Be sure to set aside a tenth of all that your
fields produce each year. 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. 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), then exchange your tithe for
silver, and take the silver with you and go to
the place the LORD your God will choose.
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. And do not
neglect the Levites living in your towns, for they
have no allotment or inheritance of their own.
At the end of every three years, bring all the
tithes of that year’s produce and store it in your
towns, 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.

That was a PARABLE used to explain to us that "Whatever we do to our neighbour, we also "as likewise", do it unto Jesus.
What this means is that "You cannot claim to love Jesus, if you do not love your neighbour".

Life is spiritual. Who knows your source of Riches but i know it either from God or from the devil. You said it all that you only go to church once in a blue moon. But this is God's commandment to you. It's is left to you to obey. Very soon you will know the truth.
I believe you need some eye detoxification to enable you see 10/10. The man is on his own right. We blacks try to force our own beliefs on others. People are criticizing him for opening up, but no one is criticizing pastors for embezzlement and improper use of church funds. We shut down anyone who questions the head of the church concerning "church" money. Even you criticizing, do you really give 10%? Detailed check will reveal that the 100 Naira or 1000 Naira you drop in isn't 10% of your monthly inCUM (who reads my mind?). I c no reason why I did pay tithes, I believe God requires my services n not my material wealth. Mathew 19:21 Jesus asked the rich man to give his wealth to the poor n not to the church. That's why this millionaire cud be a better Christian than many of us.
Sorry how we worship pastors rather than God. At twelve, Jesus asked the heads of the temple series of question that caused them to ponder. No one can question pastors of today. No one doubts what they say. One could get brutally beaten for doubting a pastor. But, even Jesus's apostles questioned him and even doubted him in some instances and he went on proving to them the truth.
