Is It A Sin To Drop Empty Envelope In Offering Box? by XXXwhistleblowe(m): 9:38am On Nov 12, 2017 |
I have been puzzled for a while, I remember the time I refused to collect the envelope because I didnt have money but I ended up feeling embarrased because everyone kept staring, when it passed and I didnt put any money. So I wanna know is it a sin to collect the envelope and put it there empty to avoid public embarrassment. Because I don't genuinely have. I'll like thoughtful opinion on this. 2 Likes 3 Shares |

Why dont you go outside when its time to return the envelope if you feel you will be embarrassed instead of decieving yourself by putting an empty envelop. 17 Likes |

A man came unto Jesus and asked him if it was okay to submit empty envelopes to a prosperity church that made people drop offerings openly in order to embarrass those who had nothing to give. "What is written on the envelope?" asked Jesus. "The name of the prosperity church", answered the man. Jesus said, "give to the prosperity church what belongs to the prosperity church". And the people were amazed. 80 Likes 13 Shares |

OP Be careful of wat u become ashamed of. U should be more scared of the Holyspirit than be ashamed of wat people can say. If u dont have an offering and its not ur fault, God knows ur mind. Dont try that prank in the presence of the Holyspirit, it may not turn out well. If u dont have money for offering keep the envelop to urself, go home with it, place it infront of u and call upon ur God, let him know its ur desire to fill the envelop for him. He is a God that blesses people who have good intentions too 22 Likes 4 Shares |

Seun:With all due respect, I read some of ur posts why Christian threads are opened to all to comment while Islamic threads are closed, because of the insults muslims receive on their threads i agree wit u then but not now. I woke up this morning to see a frontpage news of a pastor laying hands on the private part of a woman, which was a comic animation, ur people opened up the floor for rain of abuses to christianity. Nowadays a christian cannot open threads without atheists and muslims flooding the thread with insults, even wen the person is in dire need of biblical directions. U can open at least 5 christian threads that made the front page and look at wat ur fellow atheists and muslims are doing there. If nairaland is an anti christian forum, kindly and boldly put it in a write up , we would gladly stop complaining 73 Likes 10 Shares |

Seun:In other words, you're saying that the motive behind putting offering in the open is to embarrass those who don't have. I wonder the joy most of you derive in masturbating on threads that have anything to do with the church with your fallacious statements. 23 Likes 2 Shares |

OtemSapien: FYI all false gods are demons. Do you ever wonder why the symbol of Islam is a half crescent moon and a star? And why violence is second nature? Don't get me started on those please. 4 Likes 1 Share |

ElsonMorali: There is nothing like false gods, gods are gods, Yahweh, Allah, Vishnu, Atum, Moloch, Mazda, Olorun, Eshu, Chimides, Jupitus, Mercurious, Chaleb, Wayionyi, Iweya, Enlil and thousands other are all gods and they are not false. However, they have God Almighty who created them. As per the half moon crescent symbol of islam, it is because Allah once ruled the moon and for the violence of Islam, it is because of the philosophy of Allah and Moh Ahmad his messenger which is a violent philosophy. Yahweh of Juda also was violent in his days until Pol, Eusebius and other Christian former brought a philosophy of gullibility and sheepishness to the world to replace the violent philosophy of Yahweh. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

OtemSapien: There is only one God, the Almighty, the Creator of all that exists. He exists as a Trinity of Persons. He is a Triune God. Every other being that calls itself God is a fraud, a crook and a demon. To speak of equally powerful gods is to speak of equally powerless gods! 4 Likes 1 Share |

ElsonMorali: God Almighty is different from the gods whom he created in the sense that God Almighty has the power that is unquantifiable. The gods whom he created such as Allah, Yahweh, Moloch, Mazda, Vishnu, Olorun. Chukwu, Iweya, Eshu are all of fairly equal power. They don't come near God Almighty in terms of power at all. The power of Yahweh for example is far far less than 0.00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001 of the power of God Almighty who created him and all things. 1 Like |

GavelSlam: the op asked the question seeking advise as to whether his action of dropping an empty envelope is right in the sight of God or not. the best you could do is correct him using the Scriptures and not passing judgement on him already like it is in your place to do that. 7 Likes |
