Now That I Have My First Fruit With Me, What Should I Do? by Iceflox(f): 8:42am On Feb 01, 2019 |
Following all the stories and arguments going round about first fruit not being scriptural, i have started seeing reasons why i should not continue to give my first full salary to the church. I am not used to this before, its so strange to my belief that all my financial sucess through out the year have because i have been regular in my first fruit and tithing. Should i decline giving this first fruit to see what will happen to my finances this year? Please help! |

Read 2 Timothy 3:16-17, then we take it up from there. |

Bro send me small and watch how God will keep blessing you. Just pay your normal Tithe and offering. Give to the needy if you can as well. FCMB 0052231015. God enrich your pockets. |

Iceflox:Madam...U are the one giving it name, tithe, first fruit, offering, seed, weapon...wateva......All God sees is not the tag but the heart.... Obviously ur heart wasn't totally and cheerfully giving in the first place..That's why an information stopped u. Like they say , if u never had personal conviction on a matter and u were just a band wagon follower, u will easily follow another band wagon which u already started doing.. .Some pple give a year salary without tagging it anything just to advance the gospel... We can't Impress God with money..He owns the silver and gold of this world Not even with fast, he hasn't eaten since the beginning of time.... Not even with praise, the 24 elders holier than us are doing it constantly in Heaven , no break Just give God ur heart, u people should stop giving with the mind set of getting money blessing back...... Just do it for love..And love will come back to u.there's no how love doesn't come with the whole package |

1StopRudeness:No, she didnt name it Pastors did... Ordinarily, no one would bring up such an idea but a greedy "pastor" who isnt satisfied with ten percent! The church members who propagates the idea is the bandwagon... Stop twisting this. Like I stated above, if you sat in your room and Jesus told you to part with ur first salary... Its ur pastors voice in ur head... Thats where the idea came from. Why cant you just say you do so too? We can't Impress God with money..He owns the silver and gold of this worldYour God is actually the most petty I've ever heard of... A god who craves praises in order to get high? A god who constantly wants money, but according to you and ur pastors, he doesnt truly need it.... Sounds very insecure though... What love? The one you fabricated to feel like you have a point? Op.... Even if you believe in god... Would it need you to give the monies to church or would it make you to feel hungry to start with? What kinda loving god does that? |

when you give to people in need(real the poor) in your midst you solve a problem, when you give to those who already have, to create more problem. when you put a bucket under a tape, the moment the bucket is full, it starts pouring out of the bucket (wasting). you will be satisfied in your heart when you solved a need of someone in need |

ScepticalPyrrho: What is ur point exactly??...Cos all I see here is insults... A Christian asked a question....And I gave an opinion within the confines of biblical view.... If she asked an Harry potter question , I would answered her that way... If she asked a free thinking question I would answer her a canal way.... But here u are throwing tantrums and insults like an irrational being.... U know,... u nigerian atheist are the strangest class of people on the planet....U like to force ur opinion by insulting and disrespecting people. Is that a way of showing u are better or superior?? Even if there's no God in ur dictionary, i want to assume there should be tolerance.there a so many thing in this world u don't agree with..I'm sure u don't go around heaping insults and disrespect on those who accept them.... u know, for a God that doesn't exist u seem to go through so much stress. Come on,.... channel u energy better, and if this is about telling people there is no God, u are doing a really lame job |

1StopRudeness:Oooh sorry. I didn't mean to insult you... Please, read again... My point is... the bible god appears to be a psychotic fellow as dipicted there in. And your initial response is a "bandwagon" kind.... If you still feel insulted... No more apologies |
Re: Now That I Have My First Fruit With Me, What Should I Do? by Nobody: 12:58pm On Feb 01, 2019 |
ScepticalPyrrho: Oh, I'm sorry too, u misunderstood me, I don't feel hurt by your opinion, I'm just explaining what u are doing and expect a little level of tolerance from a supposed rational human beign.. now, u believe u are a random cosmic mistake born with fingerprints and iris no one else dead or alive has but yet not different from 0.5miron bacteria, without no aim or purpose in this life rather than to occupy space, feed, die and the energy that drove u will automatically cease to exist. So I don't expect u to either see or share my views. It's normal for u to feel different It's like an transgender trying to explain to me why he wants to cut off his pen!s and take hormones to become a woman....I will never get the reason.....But I will atleast respect his decision and not insult it....All the same peace man!! |
