WinsomeX: can you engage moi, funny. i had this funny recall of you(or was it your other version) swearing with hands raised to heaven never to talk with me on tithes ever again. i do not recall it well well. Tithemalice. Regardless what some may make of my position on tithes here, my position really is that of liberty. Tithe if you want to and don't tithe, if you care. I only insist that no one should teach it as a Christian doctrine and no one should be manipulated to tithe. The truth is that the moment tithes is exposed for it truly is, people quite naturally stop tithing. This is what tithers call stopping people from tithing; which we on the other hand simply call exposing the truth behind the biblical tithes.Am i at liberty to tithe without your hassles and queries? Is any random brother or sister at liberty to tithe without your asking them trip questions that you refused to learn the answers and use to deliberately lure and MANIPULATE others? Sometimes I think those who are for or against tithing get it wrong because what we casually call a "tithe" is not the bible tithe. The moment the true nature of the tithe is exposed, the whole practice begin to fall apart. Leviticus 27:30-33 reveal the biblical tithes: Duhhhhhhhh, what of the Bible Adam, or the Bible meat, or the Bible bread. Rubbish. If you however insist that tithes is 10% and 10% of anything is tithes, I will again have to point to you that that practice of tithing is obsolete according to the NT. If you must tithe, as some claim they imitate tithing before the law, then you must answer the reason behind some other pre-law practices that are no longer observed in church: Genesis 2, said God rested from his works, initiating the practice of the sabbath. When Jesus came, he showed clearly that he was the Lord of the sabbath and his disciples flouted sabbath rules with reckless abandon. Paul also warns against such defunct observance, Col 2:16:Obsolete where? What sabbath rules were flouted with reckless abandon? Do you just juggle words together? Then there is circumcision. Clearly said to be an eternal covenant with God's people in Gen 17. Galatians 5:1-4 shows us that anyone finding acceptance with God through circumcision had fallen from grace. We have burnt offering and various rituals that preceded the law. All of this have no place in the NT. How come did Abram once and for all tithing of war spoil become a standard for Christians? The answer is simple: the tithing according to Abraham is a theological copout to legitimize fraud in the church. If it must be practised, Christians should tithe once and tithe only of war spoils. There they go, once and for all. How many times did Abraham offer burnt offerings? Tithing according to the law does not hold water and thankfully many tithers try not to go to the law to justify their tithing. Rom 10:4; Heb 8:13. How does it not hold water, yet that is what you spend your time arguing that NT believers must do if they tithe? You want us to do stuff that do not hold water? Now, I find it interesting that tithers are the ones playing the victim now, saying people are forcing them not to tithe. The truth is that it is people who do not tithe that are being insisted upon to tithe in real life. Many have been chased away from their local churches because of their position on tithe; many have been demonized and vilified for their bold position against this illegality; outside this faceless forum, very few people can speak up against tithes without being seen as accursed individuals; etc.Are you not forcing people not to tithe? Are you not the one asking that we MUST answer the reason? Is NL not real life, is it a game? Would you allow me to teach tithes in your new church? Have you not called us IRREDEEMABLE for tithing? What is the difference between being demonized and being pronounced irredeemable and condemned? Hypopo The reality is that non tithers are vilified not because they insist that people shouldn't tithe; rather they are demonized because they insist that church people should have liberty to use their resources for whatever they wish, including not paying a tithe on it. However a clergy system that has benefitted from the tithes will have non of it. The same so called true biblical tithe that you just stated doesn't hold water? Habaaaaa. i will give my tithe after the 2Corinthians 9v7 order until Jesus comes. Lemme see you stop me from entering heaven for that. 3 Likes |

Gombs That's your pseudo name. Like you admitted clear truths that Abraham was not Isrealite.? Like you accepted clear truth that your noble board member said eve had sex with a...emmm... ?Until you quote where i said something out of place do not expect me to be forced into another man's issue if i don't want to. If that hurts you, sorry about that. You, my friend, are a wonderful blueprint for denial. You want me to commit to you? You must be joking. I am convinced beyond words that Pastor Chris is a man sent from God. Like it or not. You can't even teach yourself, with numerous blunders, yet you want to teach me or even more Pastor Chris. Provide me a more truer gospel, and I'd listen to you. Till then Issues, content, doctrine! When it comes to these, you guys fall flat on your faces. You only prefer to spill out your leader's position even when it is clear to you that it does not quite line up with scripture. So you look for escape routes or resort to banter. That is why you RUN AWAY from answering so many of the questions posed to you. 3 Likes |

[quote author=vooks post=28338794]Yet you have a penchant for stalking my posts all over this forum and when someone does that to you, you develop feverish fingers and nightmares.Are you so miserable? Please cease and desist from mocking me with a disease. Am not in the least hurt, I just care for those who found themselves there. If you really must insult me, try something less sensitive to the underprivillegedWho mentioned i am diseased to start with?In as much as you are concerned about them, then stop making false and misleading assertions, those who accuse others of having disease should be very careful in whether they themselves are diseased to start with. If it is all clear, then you have no business reminding me. I notice my 'arrogance' is noticeable whenever you run out of sensible points. Primates are interestingYour arrogance is that of a fool is who left to his own devices. why bother with him to start with? he thinks he is wise in his own eyes. Then kindly try to COMPREHEND because you embarrass yourself and derail the thread unnecessarily with your ignorance.The gap of your ignorance is more wider than the little kids i teach in salvation classes,why fool yourself. It does not concern you. Not everything is your level. Few are. Most things are too lofty. Learn in silence.I would never turn you away. I will take time and teach you. Just aks nicelyJust as Paul in Acts 17:23 would say to the Athenians: "Whom therefore ye ignorantly worship, him declare I unto you."

Gombs: You have just given yourself away again. We have not finished dealing with the matters on this thread and you want us to go off to other ones. You are confirming what i have said repeatedly. For your information, each Christian has his spiritual gift and God's allotted sphere of assignment. Within that sphere when he does his service well he receives God's approval. Success to God may be completely different from man's measure so it would out of place to begin to reduce success to figures like you guys have done in recent times. 3 Likes |

For the record though, you spoke OP (I would add 'as usual' here) Now concerning your questions I said everyone is fake to you because your grouse is not with Chris Oyakhilome, Kumuyi, Hagin, Oyedepo etc. Your issue is with unbelief and I can prove it. Let us assume that all the so-called faith healers that you feel I am affiliated to are fake. Let us also assume that you believe God still heals people. Now can you show me evidences that tetraplegics and Palsy sufferers have received this healing from God- I mean the God of the bible, and if/WHEN you can't, can we also conclude that you do not believe in healings but only aver so to substantiate your criticism and hatred for the faith healers?

what you are calling conjecture is EXACTLY what happens here. Gombs is notorious. He started with claiming his Rhapsodies thread has more impact than the WOF one. I pushed him to define 'impact'. He mumbled something to do with views,emails,prayers.....i called out this vanity. Does the views on a thread reflect the truth on a thread? It quickly turned into Rhapsodies distributed,branches. Somebody was being challenged to match that. Am not too old on NL but I have noticed that habit of throwing around CE numbers at inconvenient occasions.

Gombs my broda, There is one one NT rule for giving; as you purpose in your heart & without compulsion. An externally set fraction of giving goes against the 'as you purpose' aspect of giving I would encourage the 10% giver equally to the 5%,15%,30% giver or the no-percentage-nonsense giver equally. Pious fraudsters fear that the NT standards may not rake in enough. They set fractions robbing you of the freedom of choice. They also compel you by dangling utopia called financial breakthroughs,disease-free bliss,debt cancellation and they go as far as threatening you with hellfire. Calling you robber and invoking curse they won't hesitate. These threads have just done that; taking deluded sheeple through Bible study so they can regain their freedom to give and get immunized from compulsion. Gloooooooooory ![]() 2 Likes |
