Religion / Re: 100 Keys On How To Remain Poor By Dr. DK Olukoya – Written Sermon by genteelo(m): 1:06am On May 14, 2018 |
sshyne:
So you are still using Malachi 3:8-10 to justify tithing? Start reading from Malachi 2:1 (and now, o yeah priests, this commandment is for you). Malachi was referring to the priest not you and I. Tithing was under the law of Moses. In Deuteronomy 14:22-26 it talked about eating your tithe(23-Bring this tithe to the designated place of worship--the place the LORD your God chooses for his name to be honored--and eat it there in his presence. This applies to your tithes of grain, new wine, olive oil, and the firstborn males of your flocks and herds. Doing this will teach you always to fear the LORD your God. 24-Now when the LORD your God blesses you with a good harvest, the place of worship he chooses for his name to be honored might be too far for you to bring the tithe. 25-If so, you may sell the tithe portion of your crops and herds, put the money in a pouch, and go to the place the LORD your God has chosen. 26-When you arrive, you may use the money to buy any kind of food you want--cattle, sheep, goats, wine, or other ALCOHOLIC DRINK. Then feast there in the presence of the LORD your God and celebrate with your household.
Am sure you have never come across that bible verse before, your pastors will never read it because it won't favor there teachings Tithing according to the law was on crops, animals and wine and not everyone was allowed to tithe. Am just trying to tell you that what tithing meant in the Old Testament. TITHING IS OF THE LAW In matthew 23:23 (What sorrow awaits you teachers of religious law and you Pharisees. Hypocrites! For you are careful to tithe even the tiniest income from your herb gardens, but you ignore the more important aspects of the law--justice, mercy, and faith. You should tithe, yes, but do not neglect the more important things.)
In this chapter Jesus was condemning the teachers of religious law and the religion then was Judaism (hope you know Christianity didn't start until after the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ). Jesus confirm that tithing is of the law (you ignore the most important aspect of the law, meaning tithing is an aspect of the law). Jesus came to fulfill all that was written in the Law and the Prophets. All of it was pointing to him, even where it is not explicitly prophetic. He accomplishes what the Law required.
“Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. For truly, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not an iota, not a dot, will pass from the Law until all is accomplished.” (Matthew 5:17–18)
All the promises of God in the Old Testament are fulfilled in Jesus Christ. That is, when you have Christ, sooner or later you will have both Christ himself and all else that God promised through Christ.
For all the promises of God find their Yes in him. That is why it is through him that we utter our Amen to God for his glory. (2 Corinthians 1:20)
The law was kept perfectly by Christ. And all its penalties against God’s sinful people were poured out on Christ. Therefore, the law is now manifestly not the path to righteousness; Christ is. The ultimate goal of the law is that we would look to Christ, not law-keeping, for our righteousness.
For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes. (Romans 10:4)
In Romans 3:26-28 we were made to understand that we are made right with God not by keeping the law but by faith (26-for he was looking ahead and including them in what he would do in this present time. God did this to demonstrate his righteousness, for he himself is fair and just, and he declares sinners to be right in his sight when they believe in Jesus. 27-Can we boast, then, that we have done anything to be accepted by God? No, because our acquittal is not based on obeying the law. It is based on faith. 28-So we are made right with God through faith and not by obeying the law.)
Jesus never talked about that tithe, he never collected or paid tithe, his disciples never collected or paid tithe. And in John 14:26(But when the Father sends the Advocate as my representative--that is, the Holy Spirit--he will teach you everything and will remind you of everything I have told you.) he never told us to pay tithe so the Holy Spirit can't tell us what Jesus Christ didn't say. Any pastor saying the Holy Spirit ministered tithing to him is a liar from the pit of hell.
The only way you can give to God is to give to the poor, orphans, widows (the needy in general) Matthew 25:31-46 (study it). Let me just stop here
I hope that I am able to convince you and not confuse you that tithing is of the law and not for Christians.
Have a lovely day There is always a way to justify ur belief, I know a true child of God will not drag anytin wit his father, it's a different thing to know d Bible and interprete it logically, it's also another different tin to understand d word of God trough d inspiration of d Holy spirit. |

Religion / Re: It Is A Sin For Ladies To Put On Trousers To Church by genteelo(m): 1:13pm On Mar 26, 2017 |
ceecee0703: who said its majorly for men? Go to a boutique to buy clothes you have male section and female section. In the female section u have " female trouser" why are we so unintelligently righteous? Its ok to wear trouser outside the church but wrong to wear it in the church? God does not live in the church he lives in us, so we are his church. So if we dress modestly as the scriptures prescribes we don't sin. Note it might be in the law of a church for women not to wear trousers to church or not to serve as a worker in the church, but that doesn't make it a sin as far as modesty is maintained. The fact that trousers are arranged in the female section in boutique doesn't justify it as a right thing. Am not against female putting on trousers but am against how d shape of their private part is exposed when they wear trousers, unlike men, d female will prefere to wear trousers fitted tightly to intentionally show their body shape. We've gotten to the era that people don't respect God anymore, the church is a sacred place and most be kept holy by all means. It is very wrong for a female to wear trousers to the church, it may even reduce the anointing of that church. |

ceecee0703: As at the time of writing that scripture the dressing of the Jews and Greek was gown and not trousers so how do u explain that?
in those days when a woman is in her monthly period she is termed unclean and so anything she touches or wears is dubbed unclean Lev 15:19. That's the reason of "don't wear what belongs to a man n vise versa" but grace came and redeemed us from the course of the law. Therefore the new law pertaining dressing is "dress modestly" so one can dress mini- skirt and its not trouser but not modest. But now dat men wear trouser nd female skirt, don't u think it has being cleared already? Y do u hav to wear trouser wen u know its majorly for men. Watever its wrong is wrong no matter hw u try to defend it. |
