That's the thing...you do good because you want a reward in some heaven while human beings do good to fellow humans because it is good.

Exactly,
because If there is no heaven
There is no essence of being good in the first place.

What is wrong wit u people

Bible clearly states that We should pay tithe to orphans, widows, fatherless, Levites, motherless, Foreigners who have no land and poor people generally.

Deuteronomy 26 vs 12 and Deuteronomy 14 vs 28

Then secondly, The book of Malachi means "The prophets". The whole book of Malachi is an instruction or warning to prophets n priests. Malachi 3 vs 8 - 10 is strictly for the levites who pay less than 10% of their tithe.



Please read ur Bible, Don't allow pastor or priest to deceive u.

..even it's every third year oooo....don't mind this Yahoo pastors ..

When did God told you to do that. He spoke with Israelites and told them what the tithe will be some 2000 years back!

skydancer:
I finally believe that this is God's own way of sending a message to pastors. In the old days, the priests and levites rarely owned any property so it was fitting to nearly categorize them with those that needed help as mentioned in Deuteronomy 14: 22 - 29 https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Deuteronomy%2014:22-29

But it's no longer so. And moreover, tithes were meant to be given to God the way we were to give Sundays, by enjoying it ourselves and sharing with others especially the less privileged.



The most important thing at the end of the day is to realize Christ perfected this teaching in His preaching of Charity. We should make it mandatory for ourselves to practice Charity and to pray for the guidance of the Spirit in the process so that we will give to those who need it most. And at the end of the day, it's not that you gave money that matters, but that you gave love, and your time to someone and made them realize how important they are to God.

felixomor:

No I dont
You are still assuming

Oh Gosh! So sorry for making another wrong assumption, please forgive me. But you came on social media (nairaland) to make a statement that suggests you pay tithe. If you are giving as secretively as the bible suggests, you will not come here to suggest you pay tithe. Madam, your reward is on social media too. I can't be wrong this time!

chillychill:
Tithe abi showing off mucheww.. Well-done ma

How can she show off when she hid her face? This is a Challenge just like the ASL Ice Water bucket Challenge where you do it and challenge others to do same.

so because some nefarious pastors abuse the purpose of tithe one should stop giving tithe?

this freeze of a guy is sick..

tithe was commanded by God...same as loving your neighbor as urself, and other instructions about sin..u don't obey the one that suits u because you think some people feeding fat from it..


let God deal with such pastors as he pleases

Willzkid:
While I do not denounce tithing, I am against the compulsion and abuse that goes with it in our contemporary churches. However, I do not think this is the best way to address it. For one, Jesus clearly says in Matthew 6 that when we perform acts of charity we should be discreet about it. Charity is really not for show, and we don't right a wrong with another one

So why did Jesus feed the hungry in Public? This is not about showing off but rather about Nigerians coming together to alleviate poverty by being their brother's keeper. A lot of Charity are done in the open to encourage others to join and not to show off. Pastors call for Donations in the Open, one of them even asked for a Billion naira in the Open. Anyway Freeze took his time to address this issue properly.. Maybe when you see the Video you will understand bettwr

Where's the food in the store house? As a hungry man can I go to your church and eat? Nigerians Ehnn, una no go kill peeps.

Okay make I speak Pidgin. Most of Our Churches here in Europe mo dey talk about Tithes dat na wetin I mean by dat

Evidently, most people don't read their Bible. They only listen to sermon. Please read Deuteronomy 14 :22-28.

Even, where you quoted, Malachi 3:10 , is there food in God's house after our pastors collect the tithe?

Hehehehe, u fail one more time

Reminds me of the 3 times satan failed while tempting Jesus Christ

Omoluabi16:
Good for freeze and his followers. As for me though, my tithe will always go to the house of God as per Malachi 3.

Christ and Malachi who is greater? Christ and Malachi whose follower are you? Before answering First Read from Malachi 1 and dont just jump to verse 3. It's called Laziness... Except you start from the beginning how then can you understand a story that you start from the middle?. "This Commandment is For YOU 'o PRIEST" Read! The Commandment is not for Nigerians, not for Europeans, not for Africans, it was Directed at the Priests who were not doing what God asked them to do. But as usual your Pastors started from verse 3 and you all jumped in too.. Well I assume you have a Bible so read from verse 1, it's the smallest book of the Bible and you will be done in no time

Along with Tithes God also commanded Burnt offering! Atonement Offering! Sprinkling of Salt on your Offering! Keeping Shabbat Holy and no work, Men not to shave the side of their Beard, Use your Tithes money to buy anything including alcohol and drink so he will bless you, and so many other commandments, so how come your Pastors took out only one that involves them making money off you even when God never asked it and ignore the Rest? If you must follow the Old Law and Rejects Christ new Law of GRACE Then you must follow all and not just one

God ask that you give it to widows and motherless kids and poor people in Deuteronomy... pls open the Bible and read it...Deuteronomy comes before Malachi..

Sharrap pls.
Thats what the Bible says
I thought u and your freeze say pastors are evil already
And that pple shouldn't copy them.

But now she can post on social media because pastors post on social media. Abi?
Hypocrite!

this one no get one sense....chaii!!! See as man pikin empty?

Exactly,
because If there is no heaven
There is no essence of being good in the first place.

I choose to do good for goodness sake, not for a reward. '... Lord when did we see you and did all these things?'. Obviously, they were not thinking of any pay back.

There is nothing like "goodness sake" without a decree of whats good and whats evil.
Without What is righteous and what is sin.

One can only but attempt to deceive thyself.
But that heart of man in u, we know

God,
The origin of good

Let me understand u...
God determines what is good and evil because he is the origin of good (and evil)?

paxonel:

Not smoking or drinking or fornicating or all sort of rubbish is simply observing the law which is good.
But your body being a temple for Christ is far supercedes the law.
Even churches have their laws, tithing may be one of them.

But It is not until you keep laws that makes you qualified. We were all justified by faith.

Then keep on smoking, drinking and fornicating.....
