joezakdeen: if u r afraid to go to church and giv, u r a miser and u r against God. The tithe is to take care of the men of God as the bible says and all moni given to the church has acounts, unless ofcourse a fake church. Wen u go to church, giv. Is there problem wid dat. Bsides those giving do not hv problem wid it abi? U knw wat? because God continues to bless dem wid wat they giv. Those who calim they know neva knw! If u dnt pay tithe, u r a thief to God nd perhaps u might not knw hw blind u r. God is merciful. Bless you bro... As much as I understand what you are saying here, we must not hold the wrong end of the stick to think not paying tithe means not giving to the church. The bible encourage giving a lot as It makes us understand God loves a cheerful giver. If 10% of your salary is what you can cheerfully give without thinking of how you will get it back in multiple folds, give it. If 1% is what you can cheerfully give, give it without being coerced to. What you don't want to do is to be selfish or greedy with whatever you have. Jesus nor His disciples never commanded any Christian to pay any fixed amount or percentage to the church. If we must calculate all the tithes the nation of Israel gave at the time, it was about 35% if put together. Putting it in another way, what they paid then as a nation was tax. They put all these things into one pocket and they share and allocate for the good and benefit of their nation. Similarly, we(Christians) pay obligatory tax today to whatever state or country we are based. 2 Likes |

joezakdeen: hahahhaaa....gambler? May His mercy b upon u bro. Now r u against ur bible as a christian? Wel enough jx point me wher tithe is forbiden in d bible. Ei! Sory, ''ur bible''. Truth is truth and one. I quoted d bible nd u start to insult.lolx dats cool buh u shud know dat.....All Scripture is breathed out by The bible also encourage us to rightly divide the bible- we must know who spoke and to whom every statement is been directed. The bible also says- 4 For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope. We can learn a lot about God from the way He dealt with The nation of Israel aforetime but it shouldn't be a doctrine to be practiced by the church. Tithing isn't a church doctrine but a Jewish tradition to be adhered to by the Jews at that time. The church teaches giving and giving and giving as long as it is coming from a sincere heart. 1 Like |

frosbel: I believe good teachers of the word should be supported by the church if the church can. The worry of going to work and meeting daily needs can affect their job as teachers of the word and subsequently the spiritual growth of the church. Don't you think so? Although, going by the way of unscriptural tithing shouldn't be the solution to the issue of catering for the welfare of the teacher. |

shdemidemi: Paul worked , I know many full time ministers who work also full time, in fact some are even medical consultants with all the busyness that encompasses such a position. It is sheer laziness to depend on other hardworking people who also have some degree of church responsibility and personal priorities. Giving also seems to be specifically directed to the preacher which is in total contrast to the early church where giving was primarily directed to the poor, feeble, orphans and widows. This whole concept of Pastors trying to personalise and hijack donations, be it tithe or offering is just disgusting. Remember what Paul himself said : "so that you would follow our example. 10For even when we were with you, we used to give you this order: if anyone is not willing to work, then he is not to eat, either. 11For we hear that some among you are leading an undisciplined life, doing no work at all, but acting like busybodies.…" - 2 Thessalonians 3:10-11 |

frosbel: I think I can be as critical as you are on this issue but there should be a balance. Paul made a personal decision not to burden the church with his needs. He never said the welfare of teachers should be ignored. 1 Tim 5 17 Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who labour in the word and doctrine. 18 For the scripture saith, thou shalt not muzzle the ox that treadeth out the corn. And, The labourer is worthy of his reward. Paul made mention of people who would not work simply because they thought there was no point working since Jesus was coming. They wanted to leave all they were doing thinking Jesus was coming at that particular time. Moreover, he still had support from the church- 7 Have I committed an offence in abasing myself that ye might be exalted, because I have preached to you the gospel of God freely? 8 I robbed other churches, taking wages of them, to do you service. 9 And when I was present with you, and wanted, I was chargeable to no man: for that which was lacking to me the brethren which came from Macedonia supplied: and in all things I have kept myself from being burdensome unto you, and so will I keep myself. I think the actual teaching of Gods word takes time and concentration- we must cut true teachers some slack. Even Peter had to disburse roles within the church to focus on the teaching of the word. I think that gives an idea of how much time teachers have to spend with the word themselves. 1 Like |

frosbel: 1 Timothy 5:17-18 Elders who do their work well should be respected and paid well, especially those who work hard at both preaching and teaching. For the Scripture says, “You must not muzzle an ox to keep it from eating as it treads out the grain.” And in another place, “Those who work deserve their pay!” (NLT) Paul was writing to a young Pastor... I see it's cool we derail this thread at this point!  1 Corinthians 9:9 For the law of Moses says, “You must not muzzle an ox to keep it from eating as it treads out the grain.” Was God thinking only about oxen when he said this? (NLT) Again, Paul refers to this expression of "not muzzling an ox while it is treading out the grain." Even though many times Paul chose not to accept financial support, he still argued for the Old Testament principle that those who serve full time to meet the spiritual needs of people, deserve to receive monetary support from them. 1 Corinthians 9:14 In the same way, the Lord ordered that those who preach the Good News should be supported by those who benefit from it. (NLT) In verses such as Luke 10:7-8 and Matthew 10:10, the Lord Jesus himself taught the same precept, that spiritual workers deserve to be paid for their service. 1 Like |

If you could just patiently read and comprehend matters like tithes that has been thoroughly debated on this forum, you would not be putting your foot in your mouth, like your pally, Gombs, another example of misplaced youthful zeal, is doings here.

1.According to the bible and Paul specifically , if any man does not work he should not eat. 2.According to the Tithing association of casino gamblers , if any man does not tithe he should not eat. 3.According to the Pastors association of Tithe collectors, if any pastor does not work he should eat bountifully a hundred and even thousand fold. Person type No. 1 is a wise man Person type 2 is a Mumu Person type 3 is a crook Disclaimer : not applicable to those who genuinely think tithing is right , but even so use the monies collected to meet real needs. Also this does not in anyway apply to those who give expecting nothing in return . 1 Like |
