MarkMiwerds: One good reason? James 2:10That means its advisable to tithe with agricultural contents and to give it to the 'less priviledges'. Noted. But you've not answered my question on why i should stop paying tithe either financially or with agricultural contents cos some comments above me are against it |

What more can christians do than to pray for unbelievers to repent of their ways. Seeing the foolishness of people,I've to say christians have a lot to do. |

snadguy007: That means its advisable to tithe with agricultural contents and to give it to the 'less priviledges'. Noted.Blessings. Another good reason to stop tithing is because of what the Apostle Paul told the Christian Gentiles in Galatia... Galatians 3:10 For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them. If you are going to submit to the Mosaic Law of tithing, then, according to the above verse you are required to keep the whole Law or be under a curse. Also, for one who is married to Christ Jesus to submit to the Law is equivalent to that one committing spiritual adultery. (do you really want to be seen as an adulterer?) How can I say this, one may ask? Because the Apostle Paul taught it. Romans 7:1-4 Know ye not, brethren, (for I speak to them that know the law,) how that the law hath dominion over a man as long as he liveth? For the woman which hath an husband is bound by the law to her husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband. So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband be dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man. Wherefore, my brethren, ye also are become dead to the law by the body of Christ; that ye should be married to another, even to him who is raised from the dead, that we should bring forth fruit unto God. Note in the first few verses that Paul shows how a woman married but going to live with another man is adultery. He then reveals that we, as the Bride of Christ have no business going to the house of the Law. 1 Like |

The monetary tithe requirement doctrine was never instructed by, nor commanded by, God. It is the invention of man. Psalms 106:39 Thus were they defiled with their own works, and went a whoring with their own inventions. |

I know the word "tithe" has "tenth" built into it, and so some Christians assume that every usage of the word "tithe" in Scripture is referring to "giving 10% of your gross income to the church." But I also know that "tithes" in the Old Testament did not refer to this at all; They only "tithed" on food (livestock and crops); they had money (i.e. "income", but the "tithes" did not apply to that The food went to the Levites, Priests, and needy people - none of whom had land of their own by which they could feed themselves "Tithes" were not required of everyone - only those who raised livestock or grew crops. For example, carpenters weren't required to tithe, nor were the Priests and needy people 5 Likes |

MarkMiwerds: God does not demand 1/10th of your income. It is a wicked and deceitful man who demands that money. In our Bibles, God only commanded tithes of gardens, orchards, and livestock. He never told man to tithe money.You are right on target. God bless you for that. Those so called pastors begging for tithes on Sundays are just covertly scamming their gullible flocks. 1 Like |

However, if you are bypassing a poor person while on your way to a well-to-do Church so you can drop Naira in the offering plate, you are robbing God.

Nigeria is a society of exploitation - The Politicians exploit us by squandering our money on useless and personal projects - The 419ers steal our money through trickery. - The Pastors exploit us by stealing the little money we have left to take care of our needs and that of our family. In other words both politicians and pastors are not satisfied with exploiting us, they want us to be broke and penniless. Its all a scam. Do not pay one more tithe, send the money to that brother you spoke to yesterday who has emaciated due to hunger , I tell you your reward will be great in heaven. Send your money to that sister whose husband died recently and is finding it very hard to feed her children, I tell you your reward will be great in heaven. STOP enriching pastors and their pet projects and visions , which in most cases has nothing to do with the kingdom of God. I say people STOP , STOP being MUGUs. It is bad enough the politicians exploit you and 419ers scam you, but Pastors Say NO !!! No more TITHE , its a SCAM , Thievery, Robbery and wickedness, GOD does not use or spend Money. "And whoever in the name of a disciple gives to one of these little ones even a cup of cold water to drink, truly I say to you, he shall not lose his reward - Matthew 10:42 5 Likes |

tunshe: Tithe is destroying ChristainityHonestly it have now turn to a sort of competitions between churches. Where i stayed i am surrounded with more than 5 different churches! They are not far from each other, at least you can see 3 of them from my compound. In a certain street i saw two different churches facing each other! When one is praying the other is singing, Sometimes both would be singing absolutely different songs. No Harmony at all it is just pure competition. There is another church call "Redeemed". There is no where you won't find this church in all sizes and colour. It is not enough for them to build just one big church in a certain area but they would build 3 not far from each other with the same name redeem. 2 Likes |

Jesus said in Matt 23:23 "Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites. For ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin and have ommitted the weightier matters of the law, judgement, mercy and faith: these ought ye to have done and not to leave the other undone.". Clearly, Jesus didn't condemn paying of tithe. Why are we condemning what Jesus didn't condemn. Paying of tithe is only one of many things expected of a christian as we see in the verse. |
