Pesuzok: When you sit down to listen to the sermon, eating of His Word and drinking of His Spirit and your spirit is filled with the Word of God and your soul is satisfied, what is this abeg. Your physical substance had made it possible through your obedience to God in tithing. And you know what, many others you do not know personally will have come to Christ because of that obedience. |

In my congregation we don't give tithe.
We're advice to help our neighbor.
Give out to charity, show love to everyone and that's pure Christianity for u. 3 Likes 1 Share |

okenwaa: Deuteronomy 14:22-29New International Version (NIV) 22 Be sure to set aside a tenth of all that your fields produce each year. 23 Eat the tithe of your grain, new wine and olive oil, and the firstborn of your herds and flocks in the presence of the Lord your God at the place he will choose as a dwelling for his Name, so that you may learn to revere the Lord your God always. 24 But if that place is too distant and you have been blessed by the Lord your God and cannot carry your tithe (because the place where the Lord will choose to put his Name is so far away), 25 then exchange your tithe for silver, and take the silver with you and go to the place the Lord your God will choose. 26 Use the silver to buy whatever you like: cattle, sheep, wine or other fermented drink, or anything you wish. Then you and your household shall eat there in the presence of the Lord your God and rejoice. 27 And do not neglect the Levites living in your towns, for they have no allotment or inheritance of their own. 28 At the end of every three years, bring all the tithes of that year’s produce and store it in your towns, 29 so that the Levites (who have no allotment or inheritance of their own) and the foreigners, the fatherless and the widows who live in your towns may come and eat and be satisfied, and so that the Lord your God may bless you in all the work of your hands. Are you talking about this tithe or the tithe your pastor demand should be paid to them which as nothing to do with the scripture ? |

KardinalZik: Of course He spends money. We spend it on His behalf. I think what you try to say is if God has personal needs for which money is required. That answer is no. He is a Spirit and dwells in heaven. There are no needs there. |

mdokaba1: To be frank with you bro, you are still owing God your tithe. What you have just done is give help to the poor. Like someone mentioned God specifically stated where the tithe should be brought to and the reason why Bring all the tithes into the storehouse, That there may be food in My house, And try Me now in this,” Says the Lord of hosts, “If I will not open for you the windows of heaven And pour out for you such blessing That there will not be room enough to receive it. Malachi 3:10 Also mind you, there's a reward for giving to the poor which is different from that when you pay your tithe. You should go pay your tithe bro 1 Like |

bible says bring all the tithe into my store house(the church) that there may be meat in my house...also the bible did say we should give to the needy...the needy can be anywhr not necessarily the house of God.so for tithe paying,the bible was specific where to give it.giving also to the needy is also his commandment..buh i fink yu givng to the needy isnt paying ur tithe...thats just u giving to the poor.the tithe shud b payed in church as an offering....many may not agree with this buh its my understandn |

HajimeSaito: Take it from one who knows God in a way no ordinary can. you did both good and bad. You see, God designated your tithe to go to His house of worship so 'food and all thing will be plentiful there.' if you keep giving your tithe direct to the beggers who you don't even why they are there when people with desperate problem run to God's house for shelter and food what will they eat? WHAT WILL THE MEN WHO DEDICATE THIER LIVES TO FACE YOUR PROBLEM IN GOD'S NAME EAT WITH THEIR FAMILY? Its so unfortunate that fake prophets abound to cause ridicule to God's name,e and work and so many will tell u you did good. You did do evil bro, u just did it wrong. Next time, save your tithe, look for a small church with a leaking roof and a pastor does good mindlessly for people in God's. Give your money him, shake his hand and walk away. Even if that prophet did not pray for God will not forget whose money fixed that roof! Give to beggers from from your own pocket not your title. |

It baffles me to c learned people ( even prof, elders) and youth with no proper functioning brain. As far as I am not comfortable with the method of paying(I.e to the church), are the tithe monitored to know if they serve d purpose they are meant for after paying. No, what you hear is leave that to God to judge but you can spew trash from your mouth to judge someone who decided to put a smile on a poor. If we all do like OP, I bet you..Nigeria will compete with Saudi Arabia where people hardly steal. 4 Likes 1 Share |

tickertop: No sir. That is simplistic thinking. If all the substance of the world were shared evenly within a short while it will become exactly the way it is today because we donot have the same heads and hearts. Sin is the primary reason why there is lack on one hand and greed on the other. Money cannot overcome sin or buy righteousness. That is why even Jesus said, the poor will always be amongst you. So while it is good to care for physical needs, the spiritual roots have to be addressed by the preaching of the good news. That is why substance in God's house is critical and compulsory. |

okenwaa: If you are a Christian you will know this .... Christ never gave to any priest rather he feed the poor. And brotherly you are equating giving to a man of God to receiving God Blessing. If you really know the teaching of Christ you will know it’s more honorable to give to the poor and needy before any other person. Jesus says on that day a lot will Say but I was serving you and Jesus will answer I know you not.... Is there anywhere Jesus said you should give your money to your priest. 2 Likes |
