Satanist talking about blessing? Thought blessings come ONLY from God.

That's what they made you guys believe in other to conceal the truth.

Every human is a God.

We are not suppose to worship any other God.
We are specially designed. We have the power in us already.
I do not worship Satan even as a Satanist because Satan hates any form of slavery.

We are not evil.
We are the light.

When Abel brought he's first produce to God... did go need it ?? Tithe and alms giving are two different things.. Try not to interpret the bible to suit u...


Exodus 22:29 “Thou shalt not delay to offer
the first of thy ripe fruits, and of thy liquors:
the firstborn of thy sons shalt thou give unto
me.”


explain why giving only the first fruit not the firstborn of thy son?

I don't see anything bad in so doing. Whether you pay to the church or to the poor, you're are giving to God either way. "...Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me."
tithe nd offerings is to be given to d church. if u wnt to help d poor fine. but u gotta still pay ur tithe to d church... its undisputed.

Good Morning my fellow Nairalanders.

I believe my calling on earth is to assist anyone around me, in every little way I can. I do support beggars, support my friends, support my family members.

My question today is this "what if I use my Tithes and Offerings to help those in need"

Will God be angry with me? Will the cursed for not paying titles follow me?

Advise please, forgive me for the poor write up.
well brother there is nothing wrong with giving to the need.
Paying tithe sure does comes with its blessings like it's written in malachi, beautiful things said there, who no go like those blessings pronounced. Yet still helping out is still ok. Well God doesn't force us to keep commandment, He allows us make choices for ourselves but omo He sure does know how help us see the sweet part of keeping those commandments

my brother there is no way God will be angry with in as much you are giving with all your heart.like me I have never paid tithe before but I will rather give my money to the needy,motherless homes and contribute to church building.

Tithing was instituted by God during the days of the israelites as part of the law given to them.
Christians today are no more under the law, this leads us to the question:
Are christians today under the obligation to pay tithes ?
for us to answer the above question, some things are to be carefully considered, such as:
Why did God command tithing for the israelites ?
Were the tithing laws binding on Israel excessive ?
What happened regarding tithing in the first century C.E ?
What did Jesus say regarding tithing while he was on earth ?

These questions are answered with supporting bible references in the following link:

What belong to God is fixed.10% of your income and financial increase which is clearly stated in the bible.
Giving to poor is also adviced in the bible in addition to paying tithe.
Giving to men of God, Parents and Church advancement endeavours is also recommended in the bible and do not substitute tithing.
So dont be confuse.
God bless you.

well from my own understanding...God said give me my ten percent he didnt say give to the poor.....paying ur tithe and helping the poor are 2 different things entirely
if the bible called us a chosen generation .. a royal priesthood .. and king Jesus is our high priest ... that means I am a priest , u r priest , our pastors are priest as well , then who am I paying my tithe to ... or shud I expect tithe from my pastors too since am also a priest? .. Jesus told he disciples ones that he came to them poor and needed telling them that when they give to the poor they have given to him ... and Jesus is the high priest we shud pay our tithe to .. I believe I passed a message.

The truth is that the ppl of the old suffered from false prophet, but we're suffering from false teachers.

I laugh wen ppl say God will curse ppl dat don't pay tithe.


Did JESUS COME FOR THITHE OR TO SAVE PPL.

WE all should support the work of God through our voluntary giving, whether tithe or offering but laying much emphasis on Malachi has been the problem of the church. Ppl now give out of fear so that God won't curse them.

God pls help your church in Nigeria

I agree with giving to leaders of the congregation .. and to the advancement of the church ..but please dont name it tithe .. tithe is a scam .. God loves a cheerful giver . he won't accept you give to him with grumbling or on a mandate .

Mattew 25 v35-45(........when u help the needy,u help me) says u are absolutely right




sometimes,i feel its sinful to give tithe to pastors that lavish our tithes on worldly things,while we deny d needy of they they deserve.

The european churches use their resource mainly to help d needy,especially d illegal immigrants,while african pastors lavish our offerings and tithes on cars,women,private universities,jets etc.

Sometimes,i keep wondering y pastors still collect tithes and offerings from d poor and the wretcheds,while their european counterpacts only collect from d rich
I have come across the chapter far back. Since then have been trying to locate it thanks to you I can now locate it. it is funny most churches don't quote this verse because of the believe that the only way to give God is by paying tithe.

All this tithe story is a lie. I've not been to any American church where they ask for tithe. Not one. Yet the citizens are living in a surplus economy. While Nigerians with all the tithe paying are dirt poor and going through the worst recession in years. You cant even ask an American to pay 10 percent of his income when he already has bills,school loans, car notes, mortgage etc waiting for him at month end. Imagine telling an American to give you "first fruit". His whole months salary oooooo. He will think you have gone mad.How come all Nigerian pastors are quiet about the economy situation?How come all of our seers some that go as far as predicting football matches,none of them saw this economic situation coming? Anyway me I carry my brain to church. Na una first fruiters sabi. Make one pastor use my sweat dey fly private jet. if I hear

The protestant movement in America are tithe lovers, last time I checked, TD Jakes, Creflo dollar are Americans. Ps I am not a tithe advocate.

MrPRevailer:


My dear, God requires your 10% to be given in the church. From all circumstances in Bible, the tenth of blessings was given to the priests only/in the temple of God. Don't let anybody ever deceive u concerning this. A genuine man of God can never use your money for personal gratification but for sponsorship of the church's vision.

If u feel your pastor will eat your tithe, it means u don't trust him. Then why u still there? Go out and find a holy church.

I go to The Lord's Chosen Ministry.

''Bring you aaaalllll the tithe and offering so that there will be meat in my house'' Malachi 3

You must give your tithe and offering to God. Giving to the poor is not offering. It's called Charity or alms-giving.

If a church is so rich and you perceive that its not channelling the wealth to save souls and spread gospel of salvation, what you can do is look for a good righteous church you perceive God's presence and offer there.
pls just go to the other room i will some one to come and keep you company.

if you are a terrorist or your church has links with Isis, that's your business, I pay my tithe to my church and it's not your business

I doubt you are even a Christian that even knows the spiritual and scriptural significance of tithing...like the herd that attends your church you pay tithes because like a herd you toe the line ahead irrespective of where the line leads...Your few words stink of anger, hate and defiance of the truth...
