The thread is meant to open the eyes of brainwashed Christians on tithing which is obviously a mosaic law and not captured in the new covenant because there was no record of anybody paying tithe in the bible after the death and ressurection of Jesus Christ. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

robosky02:Yes, and the proper application of that idea to finance is that you should invest any excess money that you have into a productive business or financial securities. Giving your money to a rich pastor is like planting your seed in another man's farm. The owner of the farm will reap the benefits. 27 Likes 5 Shares |

betterABIAstate: This is my take on Tithing... Tithing is tantamount to applying ancient solutions to modern challenges. Giving (not necessarily money) out of love to help humanity in the best way you can will attract far greater blessings than tithing. How has tithing helped in solving humanity's problems? Any system that takes from the poor with a view to satisfying the greed of a few is EVIL. And there are Churches that are so guilty of this... If there are Churches that collect tithes to selflessly help the welfare of the less privileged...I will not accuse those Churches. 4 Likes 1 Share |

It happens than 80% of the time, she wants to use it to pay tithe or offering in church. I never make mistake of giving her whenever she mentions tithe. But for any other purpose, no p Sheeple must get sense. |

Re: Anti-tithing Thread by connectikut89(m): 5:54pm On Nov 08, 2017 |
felixomor: There were other (somewhat more important to God than pre-Judeo tithes) things that existed before Judaism and later became an ordinance in Judaism. A good example is burnt offering like the classic case of Cain and Abel, Abraham and so on, but you cherry pick tithing and leave the others. For the sake of argument, I'll indulge you. There are only two biblical accounts of pre-judeo tithing; 1. Abraham: Genesis 14:18-20 - He tithed of the spoils of war, not of his possessions or income. And it is recorded he only did it once as there were no earthly priests to offer them to. Note that Melchizedek was a "priest of the Most High God...without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but made like the Son of God and remains a priest continually." (Hebrews 7:1, 3 NKJV) 2. Jacob/Isreal: Genesis 28:20-22 - He made a vow to give God a tenth. Mind you he said God not a priest. There were no priests or prophets as at this time. So please pray tell how he fulfilled this vow because the Bible didn't give us a feedback. My point is simple, if you're going to abide by a principle, follow through. If you want to do pre-judeo tithing, give the tithe of your spoils to a "priest of the order of Melchizedek" like Abraham did or be like Jacob, that is, of course, after you find out how he fulfilled his. But there's good news. Giving in Christianity has a model that is still applicable today, as recommended by Jesus Christ himself. Read up Matthew 25:35-40. The Apostles of Christ also had recommendations that are still applicable in our time. 1 Corinthians 16:2; 2 Corinthians 9:7. You should also support evangelists and ministries who intend to preach the gospel to people around the world, not Pastors who only preach prosperity and live a life of luxury on members' money gifts and refuse to labour. Apostle Paul did not burden his members whenever he went to preach the gospel and so he worked for his food, instead of exacting it on his members II Thessalonians 3:6-15 NKJV - But we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you withdraw from every brother who walks disorderly and not according to the tradition which he received from us. For you yourselves know how you ought to follow us, for we were not disorderly among you; nor did we eat anyone’s bread free of charge, but worked with labor and toil night and day, that we might not be a burden to any of you, not because we do not have authority, but to make ourselves an example of how you should follow us. For even when we were with you, we commanded you this: If anyone will not work, neither shall he eat. For we hear that there are some who walk among you in a disorderly manner, not working at all, but are busybodies. Now those who are such we command and exhort through our Lord Jesus Christ that they work in quietness and eat their own bread. But as for you, brethren, do not grow weary in doing good. And if anyone does not obey our word in this epistle, note that person and do not keep company with him, that he may be ashamed. Yet do not count him as an enemy, but admonish him as a brother. Thank you. 5 Likes 1 Share |

felixomor: Tithing is good especially if you are doing it with a clear mind before God and not under the influence of a manipulative fraudster in suit. However, sacrificial giving to the cause of Humanity is FAR BETTER...Did you read the part of the bible that states giving to the Orphans and Widows is tantamount to lending to God? If Tithing and Sacrificial giving are MUTUALLY EXCLUSIVE OPTIONS, which option will you opt for in line with the mentality of Jesus Christ? 5 Likes 2 Shares |
