gentlegenius:No no no no. There are no such laws in the new testament. What they early church did was to have contributions to cater for these less privileged. Alright. So it does not have to be a tithe, it could be more, it could be less. You don't have to follow any law, but the law of love. Feeling the pains of those in need and loving your neighbors as yourself. All those offering and tithes are not supposed to be standardized. Instead people in acts of apostles were even selling their properties so that no one would lack amongst them. So do what ever you like with your income, but out of love remember those in need (widows and the rest) that is how it shld be not sunday sunday offerings and tithe collections we see today. |

The whole tithe thing is meant for isreal that left egyt,why must we be subject to the law given to people who ate manna;drank water from the rock,cross the river on their bare foot,many of them were distroyed due to their stuborness,etc.this people are the islealites they can be found in the middle east.read deutronomy14:22-29 careful,you will understand that tithe is only thrice a year and is does not supposed to be given to any church but be eaten in the presence of the lord by the people of isreal. crunchyg: |

Paying your tithe is a spiritual principle from the old days in the bible... there is a place you receive enlightenment from I mean a church, the gathering of the saints,pay your tithe to God in that place. alms giving is different from tithe paying. When you pay your tithe...angels go on assignment to pave way for some things in your life |

crunchyg:First fact is that tithe is not your money, it belong to God, Mal 3:8 from that scripture if it's your money then you can't rob your money from someone, so it belong to God, and he gave us specific instructions were to pay it. His store house which signifies a man of God or the church and the Levi and melchizedek are all priest of God. But more importantly pay it out of love not grudgingly. |

kennygee: Nowadays Pastors buy private jets with it, you should remember something the way Christianity is practiced now is far more different from the days of Abraham, moses etc, The major problem with 98% of the Christian populace is that, we reference only a portion of the Bible example "Thou shall pay your tithe " and ignore the rest because it suites our lifestyle, what is being practised today is not Christianity but business.. people now see the church of God as a place to showcase wealth and enrich their pockets, but the members of the church are the most ignorant. Ask yourself this simple question, if the tithe people have been paying in the past are used for God's intended purpose do you think Africa would still be like this? go to America or UK irrespective of your social status or Pastorship, you will always be queried when your not doing the right thing with funds, but come here to Africa where am puzzled at the way we worship pastors rather than Christ himself all you see is private jets and members living in abject poverty. for the record, one response am awaiting to hear from you is "leave judgment for God" well, that's the normal cliche I get which makes we wonder where's our sense of Judgement given to us by God himself if we can't use it? let's stop this silly act and start doing the right thing |

Vendoor: 1. Paying tithe is not about conscience. It is an express instruction from God 2. The bible is also clear on giving to the poor and the needy. That is not tithing 3. The Bible expressly requires that we bring our tithe to his house i.e. the Church. We should not re-define the the injunction of the bible to suite our convenience........Obedience is better than sacrifice........ |

Tithing is a practice promoted by pastors/priests to increase their revenue, tithing is a mosaic law which is not meant to remain biding on today's Christian, but pastors always dig out verses (Malachi) to threaten people into paying... I hope you were in church today? here is an article on Thanksgiving. read and enjoy... Thankfulness To God; Through Humanity When I was a little boy, I learnt that every food and offering brought to the alter during thanksgiving belonged to God, and these includes bags of rice, bunches of plantain, and money, of which part of was coins which... click the link... www.nairaland.com/3232249/thankfulness-god-through-humanity |

ikombe: You're reading the bible out of context. Tithe is from your income. The OT Israelis were Shepherds and Farmers and it is understandable why they bring there first fruits, a tenth of their harvests and offerings of lambs as offerings. In the NT there was currency......when the pharisees talked to Jesus about who should they pay tax to, the Temple or the Caeser. Jesus requested for a coin.......and said "give unto Caeser what is Caeser's and God what is God's". Here he used money in the analogy and not fruits........ Bros, Tithe is basically your act of worship to God. When it gets to God's house it will be used as God directs. Now I know that many of today's Pastors are scammers and use tithe to enrich themselves. Well it depends on who and where you edge your spiritual platform on |
Re: Where Is The Correct Place To Pay Our Tithes by Preciousseed(m): 3:58pm On Jul 17, 2016 |
Tithing was a thing of Law and work, where you blessing is proportional to your works or your ability to keep the law. But since the grace time, tithe is not a must, rather there us now a better way of giving according to 2:Cor.9:7 to 10. Generous giving, which can be more than the so called tithe. Anybody telling you that Abraham tithed and was blessed, that's a lie as he was blessed already before paying the tithe which was not even from his income, Jacob entered a covenant with God that if He blesses him, he will pay tithe, in order words, if He doesn't bless him, he won't pay tithe. Imagine that! Another will tell you that King Solomon was blessed because he gave God 1,000 cows, but they forget to realize that someone that can give 1,000 cows is blessed already to have such amount of cows ( I believe that was not all the cows he had). What about Job, etc. Have you wondered why Apostle Paul never talked about Tithe? if there was anybody that is suppose to talk about tithe, Bananas was suppose to because he was a descendant of Levi. Jesus too never talked about it, until when he was asked, He responded by saying that their are more important things rather than tithe, such as love, peace , etc. Instead of paying tithe, you should give generously to propagate the gospel! |

stunningjudy:Beloved, 2 Pet.2:9 says that you, yes you are a royal priesthood! Even more than those old testament Priests! why? because Jesus Christ has given us access to the holy of Holies which hitherto only those priests could access. Now, the veil has been turn, so you as a priest can access that holy of holies. Hence, the present day pastors are not the olden days priests as you asserted. Rather, as many as receive Him, including you and I and the pastors, to them He gave the power, the very same power to be called sons, priests, royal priesthood. so my dear, we are in the dispensation of grace and not Law/work. For further understanding, Kindly study the book of Romans, particularly chapters 8 to 10. and ask the Holy spirit to open the eyes of your understanding .....Eph. 1:17 to 20. |

Tithe to me does not exist anymore, rather offering does. Jesus never spoke about tithe, but he dwell on something greater than tithe. Giving generously. If tithe is 1 10th, given goes beyond this. |
