Well the way i see it I've done this before..We don't keep a tithe card or get hounded for tithe..it's second sunday if you pay fine if not you won't be asked after that. So if for any reason i miss that Sunday i simply pay it to the collection for the poor. As far as I'm concerned you did the right thing compared with the alternatives you had at hand. |

adjoviomole: Rob God? sounds funny. since it s for God to judge, you guys should just leave whoever that decided to pay his tithe anyhow they like to God the same way you leave God to judge ur pastors on whatever they do with ur tithes. so y the fuss, y say he is wrong, as if he committed a sin or are u guys d judge. Even though religion is helpful in some ways but I know this world would be better without religion. I believe in the creator God and not religion. 1 Like |

Ask yourself this would you rather save someones life than pay your tithe. You have allocated your money for the month and all you have left is your tithe you encounter and accident victim do you use that tithe to save the person or you say to him it is well with you and dance with your tithe to the altar?? Lord when did i see you naked and gave you clothes...hungry and gave you food? Whatsover you do to the least of my brothers that you do onto me. 2 Likes |

adjoviomole:its obvious u hav gone out of point......even the bible that says pluck out ur eye doesnt mean you shud pluck it off in reality... If the bible says we shud lay it at the gates where the needy usually are , den i guess u know what that means.. It means carry it to where the needy are and call on the name of God and that wud be Gods storehouse becus the needy has gotten somtin from there.... Storehouse isnt compulsory to be the church.. As the church can be Gods store house so can an orphanage home be Gods store house......deut say where the name of thy lord is placed ... I hope i hav not confused you dear... |

Read Deuteronomy 26 vs 12 When you have finished setting aside a tenth of all your produce in the third year, the year of the tithe, you shall give it to the Levite, the foreigner, the fatherless and the widow, so that they may eat. |

adjoviomole:wine food and bla bla.. If its too heavy den transfer it to money den bring it to where Gods name is placed. Den use the money for what your soul lust after...for wine , for food, for oxen or whatever thy soul desireth... Thats what my king james says.. |

encrypt: You are missing the point. No one is saying what the op did is not good. We are just pointing out that he still owes his tithe to God simple. We all do good to the poor in our own way. But nothing should come between the tithe you owe to God and your obligation to the needy. They are two different things. 1 Like |

Giving to the needy is far more different from paying of tithe.
There are blessings that come from them separately. Double dose of blessing is when you practice the two! |

Nobodys: Good according to Malachi 3:10 it says bring every tithe into my house that their may be good in my house. The levites where not given any inheritance, they are full time workers in the temple. The tithes brought to the house of God is what is being used to cater for them and the poor and to also maintain the church. |

There is a way these stuff should be handled, that money is compulsorily to church... Hut offering is not compulsory so you can do what ever you like with your offerings and not that 10% |

adjoviomole:okay dont twist the bible now...it dint just say the levites buh also includes the fatherless. Widows, poor , needy ,stranger....so if our tithes are also meant for these people then why did you say the op still owes God his tithes ![]() ![]() ![]() 1 Like |

Seamareggae: I'm talking about tithe here it's supposed to be payed to the House of God for God's work that is, maintaining anything that has to do with his place of worship likewise for the provision for the poor and other charitable activities. Unfortunately, most churches have turned things the other way round. When you give alms to the poor, you will get your reward from God not man. |

Nobodys: Obedience is better than sacrifice. Simple Obedience bring your tithe to Gods house. If you want to play your card this way then it is disobedience. |

Re: I Just Gave My Tithe To A Beggar. Was I Wrong? by adjoviomole(m): 5:40pm On Oct 08, 2017 |
Most of you are just missing the point here. The op set the money aside solely to take to the house of God to pay his tithe. And then something of an emergency comes up, and he ends up using the money for it. Fine what he did was good in the sight of God, but the fact remains that he still owes his tithe. For example you are given money to pay your school fee, you used the money to pay for your departmental fee, hello! You still owe your school fee. Simple |

My Own Personal Opinion. Give to Caesar, What Belongs to Caesar And Give to GOD, what belongs to GOD, I'm not saying you did the wrong thing, but I still believe that tithing and charity are two different things entirely. I would give to GOD that which belongs to GOD amd , from the spare I would gladly give to the less privileged. Its just like this, I have workers working for me, when its time to pay them their salary, I would go and use their money for charity, to me it doesn't make sense at all, because the workers deserve their pay in full. So I would give to GOD first. |
