The Israelites operated a theocratic monarchy. God was their king. Tithe was a form of tax that is 10% of their harvest.
When the Israelites arrived at the promised land, the Levites did not get a landed inheritance. They where the babalawos of God. They saw to the spiritual needs of the citizens and country. They where mandated by God to collect the tithe....no other person has the right to collect it.

It was used to take care of the Levites and the less privileged in the society.

Nigeria is a democracy, we pay tax to the government and the FIRS has been empowered by law to collect tax on behalf of government. Anybody paying tithe to anybody else, is robbing the state and any pastor collecting it is a thief....and should be prosecuted accordingly.

Vadese1:
Speaking from experience, I don't believed in the principle of Tithing any more. Giving is my hubby, so I will always give if I have, but not tithing as a must. Some of the most richest people today on Earth are the Arabs. They are not Tithing.

But you are paying your tax?

One of the reason why demons hate humans is that we can have and enjoy sex but they can't...

God in his laws only gave us the people we should never approach for sex, however we want to do it provided it is within the limits of the divine laws...carry go.

The first purpose of sex is for pleasure, and what ever position that can enhance that is welcome....

So whether it is missionary, spoon, touch your toe, boomerang, wheelbarrow, cow girl, reverse cow girl, dynamic elbow....enjoy it..

See, you are still mad! And you have proven to be Peter as I first thought but did not fully remember. Those drugs have really finished your brain.

After all these years I can now conclusively say that your insanitu is incurable no matter your lucid moments. You would always be mad and insane and kolo.

Ok...can you now comment on my post,

Think and understand it first before answering..

Let your answer be based on the issues I raised..

I won't mind a different perspective

sonmvayina:
God said "let us make man in our image after our likeness..let them have dominion
.......

And God formed man from the dust of the earth and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life and man became a living soul...

That breath of life (God's spirit) is the same image and likeness as god...the body is the same image and likeness as the earth..

The main idea is that it is God's spirit that dwells in the body experiencing human life. When death comes, the spirit departs the body and goes to God and the body is buried to become one with the earth....like rain water that becomes dirty when it falls to the earth. Man is therefore imperfect by design. But the spirit is pure and does not need saving from anything.....it is God's spirit, but as soon as it enters the mud, it becomes dirty....thats why God can never be a man...


If you study the Igbo creation myth..it is more enriching , it goes further to say God used sticks for the bones, etc.
But all the same, the elements are the same...

I will be ready to entertain a follow up question

Aemmyjah and Maxindhouse and dtruthspeaker

What is the error in this..


Forget about me and let us tackle the matter at hand..

Read it again and tell me the mistake in my point. So people can learn. Tell me what you don't understand and give me your own understanding....so we can move forward..

Thank you..

Dtruthspeaker:
Are you confessing that you are Peter? You said all these 2 or3 years back and I answered you and when you could no longer give a reasonable counter you went straight up insane. So, case closed.

Lol...

It did not make sense


Why would I waste my time on your blabbing?

You don't think before you type..

Dtruthspeaker:
Na so una dey talk wen una no shock and no fit counter! So, na normal olodo talk.

Plenty pipo...

Don't you think you need a reality check..?

justli:
Do you believe the devil is powerless?

Yes...


Do you believe all power belongs to God or some and some belongs to the devil..

Do you believe the devil is equal opposite of God?

Aemmyjah:
Abeg go and sit down
Your teachings will even confuse all the Jews

Show me my error...

You have not done anything..

Show me my mistake so I won't make it again..

justli:
If you're a Christian then you need to look again at your Bible...
The devil is the prince of this world... The devil took Jesus to a high place and offered him the world...and the devil will plague the world so fiercely that it took grace for even the elect to make it out of the great tribulation. I know Nigerian Christians don't like to believe this, but that's a let down on the side of the church

The reason to be aware of the powers of the devil is so we can understand global events as they unfold.

Do you believe that all power belongs to God?

Aemmyjah:
You claim to know the Torah yet you ask me silly questions
Go and read the Torah again and answer your question

Show me..

Point me to the part....
Prove your claim

Aemmyjah:
Somyvina with his nonsense
I wonder how he reasons
He'll just say things that do not even make sense to him but he wants us to accept it

Which one does not make sense...

Let me explain/ teach you again.

Which part do you not understand?

Aemmyjah:
I and the Father 'ARE' one
Are separates two distinct persons right? That words should tell one able to comprehend English that Jesus meant unity in purpose

John 17:22
I have given them the glory that you have given me, in order that THEY MAY BE ONE just as WE ARE ONE. 23 I in UNION with them and you in UNION with me, in order that they may be perfected into ONE, so that the world may know that you sent me and that you loved them just as you loved me.

From those verses, was Jesus Christ praying that his 11 disciples combine into one person or that they be united. Note that he prayed that his disciples become one just as he and the Father are one. What does that mean??

Jesus said a man will stick to his wife and become ONE flesh. What does that mean?

Stop saying Christianity says this or that unless it is based on scriptures

Jesus Christ is the Son of God and savior or the world

According to who?

Who are you following ?

I like games. So let me patronise you since it has actually been long and I do not fully remember you. Hopefully, you would are normal and reasonable and not fly off insanely like your brother in idea, Sonmva.

So, back to your post

"u still think that man itself is a physical being that has spirit
But he sees himself as God(soul) in the physical aviater body(flesh) experiencing what it means to be human understand the flow first (soul) first then the flesh not the flesh that have a soul"

Are you saying that man is, God is experiencing what it means to be human? Oya explain.

God said "let us make man in our image after our likeness..let them have dominion
.......

And God formed man from the dust of the earth and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life and man became a living soul...

That breath of life (God's spirit) is the same image and likeness as god...the body is the same image and likeness as the earth..

The main idea is that it is God's spirit that dwells in the body experiencing human life. When death comes, the spirit departs the body and goes to God and the body is buried to become one with the earth....like rain water that becomes dirty when it falls to the earth. Man is therefore imperfect by design. But the spirit is pure and does not need saving from anything.....it is God's spirit, but as soon as it enters the mud, it becomes dirty....thats why God can never be a man...

If your thinking was working properly you would have remembered that we are the ones who are like Him and not Him Who is like us exactly as a mannequin is like us and not us like the mannequin.

You using that illustration does not hold water..

Lol..that's not me..

Answer my question or do you subscribe to his idea..?

Attention: Aemmyjah

Christianity believes that God came down to earth in human form, as Jesus said: "I and the Father are one" (John 10:30).

The Torah states that God cannot not take any form.:

"You will not be able to see My face, for no human can see my face and live" (Exodus 33:18-20)

"You did not see any form on the day God spoke to you at Horeb from the midst of fire" (Deuteronomy 4:15)

As little as we may know about God's nature, Judaism has always believed that God is Incorporeal, meaning that He assumes no physical form. God is Eternal, He is Infinite; above time and beyond space. He cannot be born, and cannot die.

Christianity denies the eternal relevance of Torah Law, basing the concept of the New Testament on a mistranslation of a verse in Jeremiah
In Jeremiah 31:30 the Hebrew states: "Henei yamim baim Neum Hashem VeCharati Brit Chadash" They translate: "Behold, days are coming, says the Lord, when I will make a new Testament with the house of Israel "

"Brit" does not mean Testament. Throughout Scripture "Brit" means covenant. See for example Genesis 17:2, 15:18 Exodus 24:8, Leviticus 26:42, Numbers 25:12.

It is a fundamental principle of Judaism that the Torah received at Sinai will never be changed nor become obsolete. This concept is mentioned in the Torah no less than 24 times, with the words: "This is an eternal law for all generations"

(Exodus 12:14, 12:17, 12:43, 27:21, 28:43, Leviticus 3:17, 7:36, 10:9, 16:29, 16:31, 16:34, 17:7, 23:14, 23:21, 23:31, 23:41, 24:3, Numbers 10:8, 15:15, 19:10, 19:21, 18:23, 35:29, Deuteronomy29:28)

It is absurd to accept the Divine origin of the Torah yet deny it's eternal relevance. Judaism is a religion of action; it has always taught that through performance of the commandments one declares the belief of the heart. To dispense with the legal body of the Torah and reduce it to a book of morals would cut it down to less than half it's size. Can this really be the meaning of those words an eternal law for all generations

You may not know nor have a good idea of what it is, but all of us participating here know. So we have left that class behind.

What is life..

Why are you shying away from answering it..

Humble me..

Have you not seen that Police sometimes allow a criminal to move about so as to catch all his associates and cronies?

They saw that was what God was doing.

God is not a human being..

Your thinking is way lower than it..

The biggest wool the devil pooled over peoples face is to make them believe he doesn't exist...
The wef is serious and it will only get worst, and Christianity is the target...

All power belongs to God..

Whether the devil exist or not is inconsequential....

The Christianity that they own or which one..

They are the one who brought it to you..

They tell you what to believe and what not to believe.

If the pope comes out and say the Catholic church created jesus, have Christianity and Islam not ended and finished.

They are still making huge money from the scam, and they need the money to finance the NWO.....

So do you really have any choice?

Dtruthspeaker:
It is not! Raise your own thread.

You have to have a good idea of what life is

Before you start asking about its origin..

Dtruthspeaker:

Go and raise your own thread.

It is within the "course outline" of this thread..

Please oblige me..

Death is but an illusion...

Life is all there is...

The opposite of death is birth..

Death is birth, turned inside out...

Dtruthspeaker:
Raise your own thread! This is a different topic.

I'm here, everyone here knows what life is!

Say it..what is it?

Just me and you..

Dtruthspeaker:
See why you are mad!

First you say "We did the creation..." Meaning it is man who created everything, including this House called earth.

Then immediately you say "We came here to experience our creation." Meaning, we did not create everything but we rather came to "experience" the things created.

Does this not show you are mad?

Why you dull like this...?

How you take pass WAEC?

Beats me...
