That lirrule girl there needs some biscuits |
PointZerom:Once had the experience., that was 7yrs ago.. It wasn't funny.. She never came back. Still appears so fresh in my memory. So Sad.!! |
Let us also remember that Jesus himself warned us of people who would rise up and be preaching false teachings and be saying that they preached in the Lord's name.. Thus, we the believers have to be very careful, so as not to unknowingly support false teachings with your offerings and tithes... Jesus also warned that those people who lead ignorant believers astray should have had it better if they were not born., and that it would even be better if their hands and feet were tied to a heavy stone and cast into the sea.. But even at that, Jesus didn't specify what would happen to those ignorant believers who were led astray by the false preachers.. Let God (and Jesus) judge the case.. I wouldn't assume any judgement for them, neither would any human being do so. But then, if you discover clearly (or your heart is seriously telling you) that a preacher or a church is leading you astray, then, you might be your own judge in this case and follow your heart and look somewhere else.. But you should also bear in mind that you may be wrong in your judgement, and that is why you have to be your own judge and take your personal decisions.. Don't force your decisions on other people. The heavenly race is done singly, even though you would be judged for how many souls you helped in the race or led astray in the race.. But, that still didn't take away the fact that you are alone in this race. Tithing is a personal thing. And the faith with which people pay their tithes had solved lots of problems for them.. Not the tithe itself,, but the faith in the tithe.. ... Remember,, You can never pay God Enough.. |
One thing is very clear,, the whole money is your money; and out of it, you give ur tithe to God, and also help those in need.. You should know that God doesn't need your money.. Yess. You can't pay God.. But then, for the work of God on earth, you have to support with your offerings and Thanksgiving - which should come totally from your heart, and it is not supposed to be some calculated amounts.. (Jesus didn't really specifically preach about tithe, but He preached offerings and Thanksgiving to the church - "The widow's mite" comes to mind.., although when He said "Give to Caesar what belongs to Caesar - Which is Tax as calculated by the publicans and tax collectors of those days - and to God which belongs to God"; He didn't specify whether or not, the one that belongs to God should also be a calculated form of religious tax too, which should be a compulsory tithe). Bear in mind that it is the same Jesus who said "Whatsoever you do to the least of my brothers, that you do unto me", also said "Truly I say unto you, whoever that give to you a cup of water in my name (because you are a preacher) shall receive it's full reward in heaven".. Thus, whatever you do with your money, whether you do offering or Thanksgiving, (or tithe - which would mean a calculated Tax paid to God), or do almsgiving, or help people in need, or you do all of them,, it is still your money until you give it out.. Nobody dictates to you what you do with your money.. But remember also that God loves you even more when you give everything you have, - flashback to the story of the widow and Elisha.,, (she gave everything for Elisha to eat and feel good first..) I don't judge what the pastors do with the money.. Yess.. Let God be the Judge.. But as a human being that I am, I feel bad when these pastors promote worldly things., and exhibiting material pomposity and reckless extravagance.. Things like this make me to think again. Whenever I give to the church, I do it for the work of God to continue. I do it so that the preacher can eat well and feel good and do his preaching with better energy, and also for him to give to others who do not have; and not for him to be washing his hands with expensive champagnes.. Once it gets to wasting of money or showing off of material wealth, then it is no more the work of God.. ... Now,, About Private Jets.. If a preacher needs to take a flight to get to his scheduled crusade quicker, then, taking a vehicle to the crusade would delay him, and thus hinder the work of God he is doing. Again, If a chattered flight would be faster and better for him, he may have to opt for it., since the protocols of booking multiple flights ahead of his scheduled events may badly delay him if he happened to miss ANY of the scheduled public flights.. Thus, it would be better if a chattered flight would be there waiting on him for the whole period he chattered it.. It can also help him out on impromptu travels too. Finally.. If the period of keeping a chattered flight becomes perpetually extended, that is, from year to year he is travelling all over the world preaching, then chattering planes would be more expensive.. It would be better he buys one.. For example, it's a very good thing for the Pope to have more than one private jet for himself and his cardinals. Likewise, any pastor whose schedule of events made it so necessary that he needed to get one.. But for pastors that spend extravagantly, and buying private jets just to show off,, let God be the Judge. |

Unity is when they come together and become one. Their different separate identities would be totally lost. Only the new (most times, totally different) single identity and character of the new unified entity becomes relevant.. The new unified entity would have to start afresh to learn it's new behaviours and characters, since the constituent identities and behaviours and characters of the original entities are done away with. .. Peace is when they understand themselves very well, make best use of their strengths to make progress, and cope as much as possible with their weaknesses to avoid aggrieving each other.. They may not necessarily be very close together., but they continue to interact and do their things together. .. NOW,, WHICH OF THEM IS BETTER.??

That's the type of thing I hate in this type of wedding.. THESE OLD MEN HAD STOLEN THE SHINE OF THE EVENT AWAY FROM THE COUPLE AT THE CENTER OF THE EVENT. |
1.. Does it mean that it is only the pastors who are supposed to read and comment on the bible.? 2.. Does it mean that it is only the pastors who are commissioned by Jesus to preach the Goodnews to all nations and make disciples of all nations.?? |
lanaVello:Americans' method of Parenthood is not really working.. Their kids are going sway |
MhizzAJ:Some pastors made it so compulsory, and it became an issue... If you told them you got a N10m project, they would be expecting N1m already from you as tithe,, without knowing that N1m (or even less) is your true gain from the contract for which you may even tithe from.. They would authoritatively open the envelope, count the tithe in front of you, and ask you "What is this??" when you hand them an envelope of N100k.. Then, they mop it up by adding "I thought you said it is N10m project.?? So why this small tithe.??".. So now tell me,, why would a pastor calculate a person's tithe for him.. Freeze is trying to let these Pastors know that tithe is a personal thing, and that it shouldn't be used to fund any pastor's lust for material richness... And at the same time let anybody that cares to hear, that once a pastor is so interested in tithe to the extent of calculating your tithe for you, you better watch that pastor well. |

enoqueen:Na lie.. Most of Explorers' topics are not on Fp. And his topics are very educating.. How could you explain a thread that hit 3 pages yet it had not reached FP for once.? That's what they usually do to Explorers.. And e dey pain me personally.. At best, after 3 months, the mods would then get it out from the archives and put it on Fp.. Maybe because a new set of protesters have revived and resurrected the thread and started screaming the mods all over again on the thread |
