Proverbs 3:9 simple English, first fruits of thine increase. If you were earning 5k and it increased to 6k, that first increase 6k-5k =1k honour the Lord with it. No need to repeat till e increase again. Some one will just be complicating matters that are so easy. 5 Likes |

[quote author=alBHAGDADI post=74170192]People who speak against giving of firstfruits love to act like the Bible doesn't contain anything about giving firstfruits. It clearly shows that they don't even read their Bible. They know nothing but act like they know it all. Firstfruits also means firstlings. Below is Abel giving his firstling to God who got pleased by the act. Genesis 4:4 And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof. And the LORD had respect unto Abel and to his offering: Below is the book of wisdom advising you to honor God with your firstfruit. Proverbs 3:9 9 Honour the LORD with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase: 10 So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine. All who are against giving firstfruit to God are the same people against tithing. Yet they love to boast about freewill giving. Do they think the dirty N100 note they squeeze into the offering plate is what is enough to even power a Church's generator? When was the last time you gave God anything above 10%? I doubt you did such this year. Yet you sit down in an air-conditioned church, enjoy the music and the nourishing word of God without blessing God in return. Don't you know that the activities in the church is powered by other people's firstfruits? You might say why does God need your money. He doesn't need your money, he only needs his own money. That money which you claim is yours is not really yours because everything on earth belongs to God. He gave you the money and wants just a small fraction from it. Some might also say they never saw God while they were working hard for the money, so why should they believe he gave them the money. If God had stroke you dead or caused you to be sacked, would you be counting the money? Don't you know that there are people better qualified for that job of yours than you, yet God let you have it? If you don't pay your tithe or firsrfruits, don't worry you will still pay it later. God has a way of getting what belongs to him. Leviticus 27:30 And all the tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land, or of the fruit of the tree, is the Lord's: it is holy unto the Lord Mark 12:17 And Jesus answering said unto them, Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's. And they marvelled at him. Since you don't want to give willingly what belongs to God, then he will take it out of you in one way or another. Let me tell you a story about the children of Israel. God told them to farm on the land for 6years then allow the land to rest on the 7th year. They disobeyed God and ignored his commandment. God left them alone for a while, which possibly must have made them feel God was bluffing when he gave the command. Do you know what God did? He calculated all the 7th year they disregarded and it all amounted to 70 years. He now made the King of Babylon to take the children of Israel away from their land and into captivity in Babylon for 70years. That way, the land rested for 70years after which the children of Israel were now freed from captivity and returned to their land. If you fail to give God, he will take it out of you. It's the same as a child saying she won't wash the dishes are parents told her to wash. Well, the kid will get spanked and still wash the dish. God can make you fall terribly sick such that the first fruits you were supposed to give him will be spent on medical bills. It could be common cough that will hey you hospitalized and make you spend that much. Perhaps your car breaking down regularly to the extent that you become a meal ticket to mechanics. The good part is that the doctors who treat you and the mechanics might be tithe or first fruit payers. That's how your money will end up with God even after you've been spanked. The grouse most of those who kick against firstfruits have is mostly regarding the life of opulence pastors of today live. That's why they grumble at giving their money to such people. Well, if your pastor falls into such category, then go look for another church e.g a Baptist Church where accountability is high. We can't throw away the baby with the bath water because some pastors abuse and enrich themselves with first fruits. If you don't want to Pay tithe or firstfruits, then it's between you and God. Just don't go about trying to persuade others from paying. #Notice I'm not a pastor neither do I own a church. I'm just an ordinary Nairalander like everyone else. My only mission is to protect God's business. Yes, God has a business and that business is the house of God. Ever wondered why Jesus told Mary and Joseph that he had to be by his father's business? Luke 2:49 And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me? wist ye not that I must be about my Father's business?

SHUT UP YOUR PIT LATRINE MOUTH YOU FOOL!! LISTEN AND LISTEN ATTENTIVELY! I PAID MY TITHE FOR 10 SOLID YEARS STRAIGHT WITHOUT BLINKING. PAID FIRST FRUITS FOR SAME 10 YEARS STRAIGHT WITHOUT HESITATING. OGA OR NA MADAM U BE,THOSE YEARS WERE THE WORST YEARS OF MY LIFE. AT THE END,THERE WAS NOTHING TO ACCOUNT FOR. FINALLY I STOPPED PAYING TITHE AND FIRST FRUIT AS AT JANUARY 2018 AND FOCUSED MORE ON PRAYING TO MY GOD BELIEVING HIM AND THEN GIVING TO THE LESS PREVILEDGE/ POOR. PUTTING ASIDE ANY PASTOR OR SO CALLED FAKE MEN OF GOD PLANNING TO BRAINWASH ME. NOW TAKE THIS,I WAS ABLE TO HIT 8 FIGURES IN JUST ONE YEAR BY JUST DOING THIS. ALL MY LOSSES FOR 10 YEARS WERE BACK WITHIN ONE YEAR. MY TAKE,WHO EVER WANTS TO GIVE TITHE OR FIRST FRUITS TO THEIR PASTORS IS A MATTER OF CHOICE! DONT COME OUT HERE IMPOSING RUBBISH AND BRAINWASHING PEOPLE WITH GIVING FIRST FRUIT. HEAD TO THE VILLAGES,YOU WOULD SEE MILLIONS OF PEOPLE GIVING FIRST FRUIT,YET THEY WOULD CALL THEIR FAMILIES LIVING IN TOWN WHO DOESN'T PAY FIRST FRUITS AND ARE LIVING FAR BETTER TO COME TO THEIR AIDS WHEN EVER THE NEED ARISES. DOES THAT MAKE SENSE TO YOU? ONE THING I HAVE COME TO REALIZE IS THIS, 99% OF PASTORS I HAVE COME ACROSS BASICALLY WENT INTO IT FOR THE MONEY! THE DAY OF RECKONING IS NEAR! MANY WOULD BURN IN HELL. alBHAGDADI: 8 Likes

spongeisback: If God gave up his only son, if Christ gave up his life 4:you passing through that ordeal, if the disciples gave up their lives just for the gospel of salvation to reach to you, Hmmm what type of ungrateful person are you.. Honor God and be blessed... he first gave..and is giving more than you but your wicked and blinding motive is to argue and not try reason with your fellow brethren, even if there were some flaws. Be careful, and not make yourself an Antichrist for you know the consequences of such position. peace... |

spongeisback: Is op now a God or man made god? The people to be remembered are the poor, widows,orphans and the less privileged around you. When you feed these ones, you are feeding God. Most of the flamboyant pastors now, go into church business and not for God. There are still great men of God who feed the poor like Prophet T. B. Joshua and some of their likes who give all they get to the poor and don't own private jets or these expensive cars. Use your substance and feed the poor and not all theses pastors that are always after tithe and sowing of seeds to them.Their luxurious life style has given them out as just after people's pockets and not the work of God.They turn themselves as mini gods. |

Rubbish advice. God doesn't need anybody's money. God needs people to live in love with one another. Nigerian religion especially the diluted Christianity will never cease to amaze me. Politicians and church goers are in competitions to determine who scam more. Know God for yourself, forget churches and pastors. |

to all those planning on giving their first fruit (capital that could make them millionaires by December ) remember you've got bills to pay, ask yourself who does the pastor give his own first fruit to, the answer is no one he invests it, buys his wife expensive cars and tell lies from the pulpit that he saved to buy it, don't forget also that it's all a scam if you must give remember your family members, that first fruit would make a lot of difference in their lives.

bloodofthelamb: hmm, the Ultimate commandment is to love God, our neighbors and ourselves. if you say you love God honor him and giving is a part of honor many heroes in the Bible passionately were willing to sacrifice anything, remember your love for God is not by words but action, and he and many others are perfect example... these arguments are foolish...and yes the wicked (i.e ungrateful person who can't give back) can be punished by God.. whether believers or sinners. |
