I tithe... Come and beat me.
Good Christians study the Bible to weigh a doctrine. Good Christian follow Jesus and the teachings of his Apostle. Good Christian does not resort to talking like an Agbero when challanged to provide a reference in the life of Jesus about a thing.
Good Christian takes correction when presented with the truth. And the truth here is that there is no Tithe stipulation for Christian and the blessing of God on the life of a Christian is not because of tithe legalism.

or as the Bible says

But where sin abounded, grace did much
more abound:

True.
Catholic, Protestant, Orthodox.
As far as I know, there will be individuals within the flock of Christ that will give the Church a bad name.
There's no sacred cow.

........Kiyoshaki was referring to churches of those days and churches that are really serving God and changing lives and not Nigerian churches of today o. most Nigerian churches tithe won't work cos all your money will go to olosho,private jet,Rolls Royce's,etc,its rather placing curses on oneself instead of prayers but for charity,a lot of people's lives will be changed and they will pray for you.
Uncle pastors don't buy Rolls Royce's with church money. Members give them.

Instead of paying tithe to the pastor,why not give people in need of money like the beggars...


surely,it is written in the bible that we should pay our tithe buh it wasn't stated that we should pay it to pastors......
Tithe is 10% of your salary. If you give God 10%, you can give the remaining 90% to beggars. If you don't pay your tithe, how will your church grow? How will they build, how will they repair leaking roofs? How will they pay for spoilt instruments? How will they help sick members? etc. If your church does not do all of the above, change your church.

There are fake paators of course and there are good pastors. My point is that do not belive everything you read on blogs. Discerning christains know the truth. Pastors do not take vows of poverty btw. Some drive cars and live in houses that thier members give them. I don't worship any pastor. Go to Bible believing churches and stop generalizing.

You were lied to most of the time. The same way Politicians have fronts, fake Pastors/Bishops do. They do think if members know they got costly toys, most may not want to continue giving money to them 'the lord and gods of men. So many of them have investments using pseudonyms and cronies. Use your head, it is very rare for a member (assuming in legitimate business) to buy jet for his pastor when he could use the money to repair his waterlogged street, provide water for his village people and rehabilitate dilapidated school buildings in his village, worse case get a Rolls Royce or Jet for himself.
I prefer those that are honest enough to say I got it myself, if you are not comfortable with my Church, leave and those who got jets for themselves but pretend they got it on lease.

when last did you hear a pastor house the homeless in their homes? even if they are given,what happens to sharing with others? that's what Jesus did and that's what they preach. if they do that,hunger and homelessness wouldn't be this much in our society

Another angle to your fact, one million preachers cannot preach all people to Heaven and if one million tithe preachers preach tithe every Sunday, it will not make all Christians to pay.
Many more people are beginning to see that there is no tithe stipulations for Christians. As a matter of fact, the blessings of a Christian does not depend on the corrupted version of tithe system.
You have never in your life paid tithe. What you do is not tithe and there is nothing sacred about your legalism. Your investments and finances that went down the drain has no connection to tithe, it is your imagination guided by tithe crusaders who have told you of Mal. 3:10. You must understand that the Church and the Jewish temples are not the same.
A Christian has no business with Malachi 3:10. You can give money to your Pastor as you wish but that it is 10% does not make it tithe. There is no Legalism in Christ Jesus.


Legalism my foot. Honour the Lord with your substance, and firstfruits of all your increase. Proverbs 3

Like I said, it is in honour, respect to God. Paying Tithe shows that money is not your god. Like I said many, plenty people still pay their tithe, because they have seen the benefits. So most of your arguments are very base less.
Most of you that don't pay are still not better economically than those that pay. So which one should we follow again? So the point of the argument is very base less.

Why you must pay your tithe?

Response to the psychological trauma plaguing the church of God on the issue of tithe and also in response to freeze OAP.

Open your Bible as we go.

Why you must pay your tithe?....

The power to receive tithe comes from the power of their priesthood not from the law.....

You must know the meaning of a priest and tithe

Let look at the origin of tithe ....

The first who received tithe was not an Israelites, neither a decedent of Abraham. His name is Melchizedek. Gen 14:18-20.and a testimony of him was written that he was a king and also a priest of the most high God...if you continuing reading Abram paid him the tithe of all....

But the major question is why should pastor receive tithe?

When Jesus came, he elevated us with him( Ephesians 2:6) which gave us the power of a priest in (1 Peter 2:9 But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar peoplewink to be not just a priest but a royal priest.

furthermore the book of revelation buttress it ( Revelation 5:10 And hast made us unto our God kings and priestssmiley To be sure of our stand as a priest.....

And as a priest of the most high God you must pay your tithe to them but if you don't consider them to be the priest of God don't pay

The next question is who and whom should I pay my tithe to?

If you are thinking which pastor is worthy to receive your tithe then we go further to ( 1 Corinthians 9:7-14) If your pastor as ministered unto you spiritual things then he/she is worthy to receive your tithe and offering.

And God Almighty went further to encourage people to pay their tithe and offering with a promise of blessing ( Malachi 3:8-12 )...

Paying of tithe and offering is never by compulsion but it is very necessary because it is a means of livelihood for the priest to concentrate more on their spiritual assignment..

Some of these churches don't deserve our tithe

Just obey God's commandments by paying ur tithe, if the church decides to misuse it whoever is responsible will surely face God's wrath.

I do my part by paying and live the rest to God.
