If she can use the 10% to build a house for a widow, what would she have done with the remaining 90%

no matter how you want to hide it, it's glaring the tithe issue they pain you grin. What's your business with her showing off? Is it your tithe that she's using? People work for their money and they're entitled to how they spend it. Commot your eyes from people money and tithe and how they've decided to spend it wether as show off or whatever.

I cant help u any further....think what u want since u dont even know what playing a devil's advocate means....we do it all the time here... how do u think threads get to 10/15 pages if no one opens any other lines of thought....

There are Pastors and there are "Pastors".
None is our focus.
Our focus is Jesus Christ
The Author & Finisher of our faith.

Don't let any Pastor block you from receiving Jesus Christ into your life.
Re: Woman Stops Giving Tithes In Church, Uses The Money To Build House For A Widow by omojeesu(m): 10:14pm On Nov 19, 2022
Christians are not mandated to pay tithe, first fruits or even offerings but we are encouraged to give nonetheless especially to the poor & the needy. We are however mandated to love God & our fellows even enemies.

Give freely to support God's work & ministers but don't call it tithes. Rather they are your gift, donation, freewill offering, etc & God will bless you.

It is easy to find scriptures to suit any argument because the bible and Christianity are full of contradictions

Did he also not say “I did not come to bring peace, but a sword”

W. The simple truth is Christianity revoked the law. Do you know that under THE LAW women were supposed to sacrifice pigeons every time they menstruated , That pork is forbidden, that Shrimps and prawns and snails are forbidden. I could go on till tomorrow

The law requires circumcision but Christianity does not
1. This is a wrong assumption! Christianity is instead a logical system of thought that is God's New Covenant Law and Gospel in the Kingdom of God. The reason assume it is full of contradictions has to do confusion that stems from not realizing the contexts established by each of God's Laws in scripture. undecided

2. Jesus Christ did not revoke the Old Law of Moses , this because He had no reason to nor the authority to do that since it is established as God's everlasting National Constitution specially designed by God for the Nation of Israel in the Kingdom of Canaan, an agreement which God gave only to those who are of the blood of Israel- Deuteronomy 30 vs 15 - 20. undecided

Jesus Christ , on the other hand is God's New Covenant/agreement and Law, the Constitution, for those who are of the Kingdom of God - Matthew 11 vs 28 - 30 & Matthew 26 vs 28 - 30 - a different Covenant and jurisdiction from that of the Old Law of Moses. So there was no need for Him to revoke or abolish the Old Law which He, a Jew, also lived under while He was on Earth and fulfilled as a Jew. undecided

When last did you stone a prostitute to death in your Church? When they talk about tithe you will quickly run to old testament but when it's salvation and grace you will open new testament.
Whom are you deceiving?
Are you practicing the law of Christ or law of Moses?
Hypocrites.

Malachi clearly indicated that God's message was directed at the Israelites, so wetin concern you, a Nigerian with that which God specifically addressed to the Israelites? undecided

Or is it you all think God an imbe_cile for excluding all other Nations from the agreement/Covenant which He made only with the children of Israel- Deuteronomy 30 vs 15 - 20? undecided

The Tithing and Offering Laws were designed by God as part of His tax System in His National Constitution for the State of Israel in the Land of Canaan - an agreement which God made only with those who have the blood of Israel(Jacob) coursing through their veins - Deuteronomy 30 vs 15 - 30. So when God spoke to the people of the Land of Israel regarding robbing Him of taxes/tithes in the land, He spoke in reference to His agreement with them. undecided

So my question again to you is how can this woman who is not of the blood of Israel nor living in the land of Canaan be guilty of a crime that only applies to those who are of the blood of Israel and residing in the land of Canaan among the Israelites? undecided

How can a man in Nigeria be considered a criminal under the American constitution for a crime that only applies as far to American residents or citizens? undecided

The law was not given to the people of Israel alone.
The verse stated with "Will a man rob God"?in verse 8
It didn't indicate if it's the Israelites or the Egyptians or any one else but it's refering to all men no matter your nationality .

Then in verse 9: It says you are under a curse the whole nation of you. It didn't just the Israelites are under a curse

1. So what you are saying then is that God, and Moses, lied in Deuteronomy 30 vs 15 - 20 about the Law of Moses, the National Constitution of the State of Israel, belonging okay to the people of Israel? undecided

2. LOL... the particular statement that is verse 8 begins from verse 6 where God clearly states He was speaking to Jacob's children aka the Israelites. Again, are you trying to tell us that God also lied there? undecided

3. But, again, God made it clear in verse 6 that He was speaking in that context to the children of Jacob aka the Israelites. Are you saying here that God is liar and should not be believed? undecided

It's very difficult to make some of you to understand the Bible.
He was speaking to the Israelites at the point yes
Then in Verse 8, he asked a question " Will man rob God?
To you what will be your response?
He still replied the question even with an example

Take a look at the passage below and show us exactly where you claim God went from speaking to the children of Israel to speaking to everyone else about robbing him. undecided
6 “I am the Lord, and I don’t change. You are Jacob’s children, and you have not been completely destroyed.
7 But you never obeyed my laws. Even your ancestors stopped following me. Come back to me, and I will come back to you.” This is what the Lord All-Powerful said. “You say, ‘How can we come back?
8 “People should not steal things from God, but you stole things from me. “You say, ‘What did we steal from you?’ “You should have given me one-tenth of your things. You should have given me special gifts.
9 In this way your whole nation has stolen things from me, so bad things are happening to you.”
10 The Lord All-Powerful says, “Try this test. Bring one-tenth of your things to me. Put them in the treasury. Bring food to my house. Test me! If you do these things, I will surely bless you. Good things will come to you like rain falling from the sky. You will have more than enough of everything.
11 I will not let pests destroy your crops. All your grapevines will produce grapes.” This is what the Lord All-Powerful said.
12 “People from other nations will be good to you. You will have a wonderful country.” This is what the Lord All-Powerful said. - Malachi 3 vs 6 - 12

When you have blocked your way of reasoning, you can't understand it
Verse 8 clearly stated that, Will a man rob God?
Which means, are men supposed to rob God?
Does it mean he is referring to a particular kind of people?

Please I'm not here to argue with you on that, it you don't understand it, forget it, take what you understand, it's not by force or better still, if you have a pastor you go to him, or you can ask your mum, she can also help out

But people just think they are wise- wiser than God even. Baba say bring 1/10 to my household and keep 9 and do whatever you please with it.

Not building houses with His 10% grin

MODIFIED

People quoting bible for me and/or asking me where what I said is in the Bible don't even pay tithe or help the needy grin.

I'm not dragging anything with anybody. That one no consign me. I no get strength for epistles . Yall just like quoting the verses that best suit you. cheesy

Get this, whether you build 100 houses for people without paying your tithe, God is still gonna question you. He's ways are not ours.

As far as I'm concerned, that "kind" lady ate her 90% and used God's 10% to build house for some body.

You can do whatever you want with 90% such as giving, building etc.
... But 10 is for God. Even if most "men of God" mismanage this funds, that's between them and Him.

U are very wise..

Funny enough, the prophet Malachi was not even referring to the Children of isreal, but rather the priests in Isreal, the nation commanded by law to tithe. Chapter 3 is actually a continuation from chapter 2v1. (And now, oh ye priests, this commandments is for you). The priests were busy robbing the store house of a tenth of all the tithes.

Secondly, Heb 7:1-12, emphasis on 11$12;clearly makes us understand that since the death of Christ, the priesthood has changed hence the law.

11 If therefore perfection were by the Levitical priesthood, (for under it the people received the law,) what further need was there that another priest should rise after the order of Melchisedec, and not be called after the order of Aaron?
12 For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law
