Recently there has been a lot of controversy about thiting in Nigeria. Now aside the scriptural requirements of thiting, there are other "common sense" reason as to why a Christian who goes to church should do so.
1. The church is being sustained by thites and offerings.
2. Missionary activities are also are being supported by same Thites and offering.
3. Government do not support the church financially.
4. New church building are built from such funds and other donations gotten from Thites and offering from other churches and ministries.
5. Churches blown down by bombs and anti church activities are rehabilitated with such funds.

Lastly I will like to appeal to the public that tithing is a Christian business and not subject to debate by non Christian and anti Christian likewise. Tithe is not tax and not everyone who go to church pay their tithe. Attacking thiting is attacking the thiter's faith as he/she is doing so from their personal fund and as such it is their private affair with God.
