Nairalanders this is my first farm produce this year, I attend RCCG and I'm planing to use pay my first fruit with this , I have not paid my first fruit before but wanna start this year.

Please is it acceptable in the Church of God?

Admin please approve so I can hear from members before I embarrass myself in the presence of church members and Pastors.

Yes this is the definition of first fruit..

Lol, my brother, you've done well but God nor dey CHOP okra soup.
Carry your first fruit to the Imbe called Bubu.

After making mockery of It? You are not giving to man but as unto God. Your reward will also be a mockery.

lesser men make fun of what they don't understand

no, you can't take okro to church.

Biblically first fruits in terms of actual fruits was because in those days, everyone was a farmer, the primary Occupation.. or at least every one had/worked a farm, bringing the "first fruits" signified bringing in your first "harvest" for the Jewish calendar year that the work of your hands for the remainder of the year be further blessed

In modern context and Greek/Hebrew etymology, "fruits" have translated to " Monetary income from investments or work", sell the okro and take the income got from it to God

Is the OP not a farmer?

By the way, where did God give instructions for first fruits to be monetized?

But you other brother say God no dey chop okra soup, so who go chop the first fruit?

If your church does not accept your offering... take it quietly and give it to the poor and hungry.
