elantraceey:God never asked you to give him your tithe. He told the isrealites to bring it to his temple so the levites who weren't allowed any inheritance in the land of Israel can survive on it. Pastors of today now misquote that passage and milk members dry in the name of tithes. That's why am against tithing. 4 Likes |

If God really follow all this thing we believe in, then no one should be rich apart from Christians, "dangote is not a Christian" God doesn't reason like us, thank God I can read the bible too, giving your tithe mustn't be to the church alone, helping the needy is part of it, we have the real pastors in the rural areas that are suffering and need our help.....One would have thought that part of this offerings and tithe would go to them, but no, most of them receive nothing from this big churches...... Instead they buy private jet, build mansion for them and their family, then went ahead to build schools from the church pulse, that only the few rich members kids can attends, you find politicians children in such school I can go on and on 2 Likes |

elantraceey: Matthew 25:40; ... Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me. You don't have to look for God dear. Everyone of us was made in His image. His example and witness is all around us, our brothers, our sisters our neighbours, even our pastors! But its not limited to, nor solely for the pastors. Help someone in need and you score a 10/10 with God. If that needy person is in a church or a pastor and you are convinced of the need, then give to them. Part of the reason for contribution (note, not tithe) into the church in the new testament; is so that there will be food available to help those in need. If you feel that the church needs isn't there, or are not being met, then face the need privately. You will be doing what God wants. You would have given to God. Its funny, even non- Christians apply this law and become successes more than us Christians who have a detailed guide to success. We then wonder why God apparently supports them by making them successful. Emancipate yourself from mental slavery.... 1 Like |

At OP. You are wasting your time. Most nigerians believe their pastors are semi gods that most be followed,hook and line. I started loosing faith in what they preach at an early age when I found out they receive salary but don't pay tax. Yet the bible says give unto ceaser what belongs to ceaser. Am tell you those who collect tithe as salary are just defrauding their members. Its cases like this that makes me respect muslims who instead of cursing you to pay tithe,encourage you to help the less privilege. Unfortunately some muslims are now so corrupt that they stylishly insist you pay them for every prayer they pray for you. Yet china with over 100 religions is succeeding in every aspect cause they draw a line between worshiping God and feeding lazy religious men. 2 Likes |

Religion is bringing Nigeria down. We have more churches per square mile than 99% of other countries, yet our country is a crap hole.. Massive corruption, poverty, suffering, etc. Does it mean God does not like us?? Meanwhile countries that arent as religious as us are doing much better.. Anyway, I dont want to get into that issue... For all you tithe payers, have you ever wondered why the pastor only chooses the verses and books that suit him when it comes to getting money.. The pastor should also be preaching stuff like "Wearing clothing woven of more than one kind of cloth" is not allowed (Please check your tags ASAP), Even the bible itself is confused.. Go ahead and check http://infidels.org/library/modern/jim_meritt/bible-contradictions.html and you will see tons of inconsistencies. Never have I seen a book with advocates killing your own child if he disobeys (Deuteronomy 21:18-21), yet at the same time preaches forgiveness and mercy. I'm sure your pastors won't tell you to go home and kill your children, after all its in the old testament,(but magically they will collect your money using old testament books and quotes..) Goodluck to all, to each his own. Finally i'd love to say majority of Nigerians are sheep.. I finally gave up on Nigerians about 2yrs ago when i was in the village in Anambra state, and we went to a local church... Guess what? The pastor was announcing this: "The family of MR so and so has given N200. They have tried.." "The family of MR a and b has given N50. They need to do better next time " "The family of Mr b and c has given N1,000. God will bless them the most and continue to keep them" "The family of Mr d and e has yet to give anything. They don't want God to bless them. Thats their business" I concluded there and then that majority of Nigerians are idiots.. Cheers 4 Likes |

I would also love to add that our ever loving God is the biggest mass murderer in history.. If someone is so perfect then why create millions of things and end up killing them According to the bible official figures, God killed over 2.5million people(I bet many of you didn't know that. You can google it yourself) But experts estimate its closer to 20million+ |
