Tithe, if paid, are for people that earn wages. Do you work? Answer: No. Don't sweat it. You need to understand how GOD works and not how CHURCH works. 2 Likes |

jaymejate: You are already having conflicting feelings which is called doubt. You don't relate with God wit doubt in your mind. Whateva you are giving be it in church or on the streets or to your family do it cheerfully without grumbling or any form of force. So far the pastor is not saying if u don't pay ur tithe you will die or you will not succeed. Give to God what your heart release cheerfully bearing in mind that he is God and there was a reason he ddnt accept the offering of cain but accepted that of abel....happy sunday 1 Like 1 Share |

jaymejate:How silly, ignorant thread like this assaults common sense by making front page baffles me. Tithe is for people who earn wages. As a student you are tithe-unqualified as you are akin to a charity case or a beggar or diplomatically an economic sponger. Your economic survival and wherewithal is desperately fastened to your parents like a patient in comatose is fastened to a life support machine. You aren't a wage earner. Focus on your studies. That's what The Lord expects of you with what funds your parents provide you with . 3 Likes 1 Share |

The commandment to tithe, or contribute a tenth of one’s belongings, was part of the Law given to the ancient nation of Israel. However, the Bible makes it clear that this Law—including the “commandment to collect tithes”—does not apply to Christians.—Hebrews 7:5, 18; Colossians 2:13, 14. Rather than giving required tithes and offerings, true Christians imitate the early Christians and support their ministry in two ways: by performing their personal ministerial work without pay and by making voluntary donations. We thus follow the Bible’s direction to Christians: “Let each one do just as he has resolved in his heart, not grudgingly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.”—2 Corinthians 9:7. 1 Like |

U have to first understand the meaning of tithe and what is meant by tithing. For when u do, u will understand that our giving should be at the leading of the Holy spirit. If u are moved by the Holy spirit to pay tithe, Pay. If not, do not pay. Your giving must be freely and from the heart and not under pressure. God is not a slot machine. |

pauljumbo:Please stop being a deceiver. It's already bad enough that people are ignorant of the fact that tithing is not supposed to be applicable for Christians because of its origins in Judaism & principles behind it (I explained this in a post long ago) but to now tell someone who's not working and earning wage or salary to pay tithe is despicable. Jesus didn't receive tithe neither did the early apostles so why is it some people who claim to be followers of Christ nowadays are demanding tithe? How can you tell a student who is dependent on his parents or Guardian 4 upkeep that it's compulsory he pays a tenth out of it? Is he working? When did Christianity become so mercenary? 5 Likes |

Hotfreeze: Very simple but incredibly intelligent post. I have reiterated most of what you wrote. I prefer to give directly to the beneficiaries of my charity rather giving to a millionaire pastor. It's sickening that there are tons of widows and school dropouts in the mega churches. Why can't the Oyakhilomes, Oyedepos sacrifice their billions to help out? If Oyedepo can empty his treasury and use every single penny on the poor, then I believe the seat by the Lord he promises his congregation would be guaranteed for him. We all know out of self-preservation, this would NEVER HAPPEN. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Money and tithing is really an emotive issue and has been dealt with in the past, in this section of Nairaland. The truth is that Christians, are not supposed to pay tithe since it is one of the laws given to Moses. Whoever chose to pay it takes him/herself away from the era of grace we are enjoying right now to live under the law. Which means you must practice all the 613 laws in full! Secondly, tithes has never been about money, even though money existed when God instituted that law to the JEWS! Also, jews don't pay tithes anymore for fear of paying to the wrong person since the genealogical records of levites to whom tithes was originally meant for, had been destroyed in the temple at Jerusalem. Furthermore, tithe is a seasonal agricultural tax that was levied on the Jews to support Levites and once in a while the disadvantaged in the society as at that time. It is not something you pay at month end! 4 Likes 1 Share |

jaymejate: I started tithing when I was in secondary school from my daily feeding money. I got to University and could still remember I tithed #20 with envelope ![]() Let me analyse it for you. Monthly allowance #10,000 Tithe #1,000 Transport to school #200 daily (#5,000 in a month) Balance of #4,000 . From this I will eat, buy handout, pay for group assignment, transport to church. By kingdom practice (Tithe and offering, seed) I never called any uncle for money, can even remember I do borrow one of my uncle, I used two cars Never collected #1 for hostel fees.

jaymejate: You are a student. You are still being fed and catered for. You don't have means of income from which you can take out 10% of your income. So why bother yourself about tithe? Who lied to you that you are qualified to pay tithe? Don't allow anybody to fool you |

My advice to you is that you should go ahead pay because to whom little is given, little is also expected of him/her. Remember it must not be the 10% of your income, God looks at the heart not on the material gifts given. God bless you... |
