Religion / Local Gin (ogogoro ) For Tithe? by fcmacdon: 6:54pm On Nov 01, 2018
I am from the riverine area of Delta State. The occupation of our people there is Fishing, Canoe caving, local gin (popularly called ogogoro or kainkain) production peasant farming etc.

As a Christian from this area, can we accept local gin (popularly called ogogoro or kainkain) when the people decide to bring this as tithe instead of money?
Thanks

If you insist on tithing... let me refresh your memory on how the Jews tithed after God gave them the Law through Moses;

Tithes in Judaism
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Tithing in the Temple
The tithe is specifically mentioned in the Books of Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy. The tithe system was organized in a seven-year cycle, the seventh-year corresponding to the Shemittah-cycle in which year tithes were broken-off, and in every third and sixth-year of this cycle the Second tithe replaced with the Poor man's tithe. These tithes were in reality more like taxes for the people of Israel and were mandatory, not optional giving. This tithe was distributed locally "within thy gates" (Deuteronomy 14:28) to support the Levites and assist the poor. Every year, Bikkurim, Terumah, Ma'aser Rishon and Terumat Ma'aser were separated from the grain, wine and oil (Deuteronomy 14:22). Initially, the commandment to separate tithes from one's produce only applied when the entire nation of Israel had settled in the Land of Israel. The Returnees from the Babylonian exile who had resettled the country were a Jewish minority, and who, although they were not obligated to tithe their produce, put themselves under a voluntary bind to do so, and which practice became obligatory upon all.


Thank you.

If we are to pay tithe we are not even paying it correctly presently. we pray that God will one day open our eyes. people don't read their Bibles to understand it.


A day is coming, some people will thank Freeze.

Why is it that we disobey the law of Sabbath in Exodus 20:8-10 and hold on to the law of tithe in Malachi 3:7-10.

I pity some christians. they don't read their Bibles. Some are talking about Abraham paying is tithe to Melchisedec. Abraham never paid tithe of his income or work to Melchisedec but the spoil ( what he collected from the people he fought).

The message we should preach is 2Cor. 9:7 give [7] Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.

As a Christian I believe we can give to support he work of God but not telling people if they didn't pay their tithe they are cursed.

1Cor. 16:1-
Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I have given order to the churches of Galatia, even so do ye. [2] Upon the first day of the week let every one of you lay by him in store, as God hath prospered him, that there be no gatherings when I come.

Jesus never collected tithe so also the Apostle, but encouraged to give for the work.

The law or commandment of tithe is no longer applicable to this dispensation of grace. Our message should be on given according to your ability or as purposed. (2Cor. 9:7 Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.)

Why is it that Pastors are concerned more about tithe in Malachi 3 and leaving Leviticus 27:30; Numbers 18:26; Deuteronomy 14:24.

There are over 600 laws or commandments in the old testament. And the Bible made us to understand that if one is broken all are broken and that the law(s) cannot save us.

Abraham never paid tithe from is daily, weekly, monthly or yearly income but the once he paid tithe was from the spoils of war (the goods and properties he collected after the war with people the fought Sodom where is brother "Lot" was Gen. 14:1-24).

I am not against any one who decide to pay tithe.
But these men God should tell the people the truth and not using Malachi to treat members. But if you must obey the law of tithe then also obey the other laws.

No abuse please. Correct me with Scripture

Education / Re: Stop Using The Abreviation Lol by fcmacdon: 7:13pm On Jan 15, 2017
LOL
This article is about the internet slang acronym. For other uses, see LOL (disambiguation).
"Laugh out loud" redirects here. For the CBC Radio One radio show, see Laugh Out Loud (radio). For the ABS-CBN television show, see Laugh Out Loud (TV series).

Wikipedia lolcat
LOL or lol, an acronym for laugh(ing) out loud,[1][2][3] or lots of laughs,[4][5][6] is a popular element of Internet slang. It was first used almost exclusively on Usenet, but has since become widespread in other forms of computer-mediated communication and even face-to-face communication. It is one of many initialisms for expressing bodily reactions, in particular laughter, as text, including initialisms for more emphatic expressions of laughter such as LMAO[7] ("laugh(ing) my ass off"wink and ROFL[8][9][10] (or its older form ROTFL;[11][12] "roll(ing) on the floor laughing"wink. Other unrelated expansions include the now mostly obsolete "lots of luck" or "lots of love" used in letter-writing.[13]

The list of acronyms "grows by the month"[9] and they are collected along with emoticons and smileys into folk dictionaries that are circulated informally amongst users of Usenet, IRC, and other forms of (textual) computer-mediated communication.[14] These initialisms are controversial, and several authors[15][16][17][18] recommend against their use, either in general or in specific contexts such as business communications.

LOL was first documented in the Oxford English Dictionary in March 2011.[19]
