Tithing is robbing and stealing from God's people !
...................................
This is the second and hopefully the concluding part of our discussion on tithing. And let me begin by saying that this article is intended for those who want to know the truth according to the Bible, and are willing to search the Scriptures to see whether these things are so. Acts 17:10-11. In the first part, many were enlightened and some burdens were lifted off many shoulders that have been groaning under the yoke of this bondage brought into the church by greedy or ignorant preachers. Others were mad because their false doctrines and greed and love for money have been exposed. Others were simply ignorant and behaved like the proverbial ostrich that would rather hide its head in the sand than confront error. And some were very indignant, insulting and cursing instead of proving their position by the Scriptures.
As said in the previous post, I used to teach and preach tithing, and when I did, the people just got up and parted with their money. One time, at a church here in Atlanta, Georgia, a pastor friend complained bitterly about the low financial position of his church and invited me to come and speak on tithing, saying his congregation didn't like tithing, and that even weekly offerings were very low. I told him, " Well, it's going to be different on Sunday." Then he asked me, " How ? " I said, " You wait and see ! " As you can imagine, the offering was over and above by about 1000 % the next Sunday. Those who didn't have cash wrote cheques like crazy, and I was proud to coerce them to bring out their money, telling them how they've robbed God and denied themselves blessings, using the "curse" of Malachi 3:9, for good measure ! Finally, I exhorted and commanded them, " Bring all the tithes into the storehouse.....! " I could see the terror on some faces and a lady was literally shaking as she wrote her cheque !
Lord, be merciful to us and forgive us for our many transgressions, twisting Your Word, misapplying Scriptures and abusing Your congregation with our greed and love for money ! Thank You for Your mercy and for Your blood which cleanses us from all sin ! I have repented and cannot in all good conscience preach or teach tithing again, because it is not for the New Testament church ! After carefully studying the Scriptures, I realized that Malachi was talking about corrupt priests in the Old Testament and not the New Testament believers, but these Scriptures in Malachi 3:8-12, have been used for generations to "scam" the Lord's people into parting with their money. Certainly, there are preachers who have been speaking against this abuse of Scriptures and "scamming" the Lord's people, but they have been looked upon with disdain and scorn and venom, but it is better for us to be scorned by mortal men than to fall into the hands of the living God. Hebrews 10:31. " Woe to the pastors that destroy and scatter the sheep of My pasture, saith the Lord." Jeremiah 23:1.
AM I UNDER A CURSE IF I DON'T TITHE ?
No, my beloved, you're not cursed if you don't tithe, and neither are you blessed if you do; God does not need your money in order to bless you ! Abraham was already blessed by God before he ever thought of giving tithes, and so don't let any sakawa prophet, pastor, apostle, bishop, archbishop, or whoever intimidate you by twisting Scriptures to steal your money. The believer should give cheerfully, out of love for the Lord and His work, and not be pressured or threatened or cursed into giving. Our giving could be 10%, 100%, 1000%, 1% or zero %. according to our ability ! The Lord is more interested in our motivation than in the amount we give. Do you remember the widow's mite ? Luke 21:1-4.
What is your motivation for giving money or property to the church ? Is it so that you could be elevated in the church by your pastor ? Is it so that people would know that you are the highest giver in the church ? Is it to support the Lord's work or do you want favours from your pastor or prophet or whatever they call themselves ? Are you under a guilty conscience and do you think giving money to the church would ease the pain ? Did you rob or steal or commit adultery or fornication and expect the pastor to take your money and pray for you ? Remember, the Lord says, " I hate robbery for burnt offering." Isaiah 61:8. He does not delight in "stinking" or blood money ! Alas, many preachers are so greedy for money that they don't even care how you got the money, and would put curses on you instead of blessings.
DID JESUS TEACH ABOUT TITHING ?
Yes, in Matthew 23:23, He acknowledged that tithing was an obligation under the Old Covenant, but even so He taught the Pharisees to show mercy and kindness and faith. Besides, the Old Covenant was still in effect, and Jesus spoke to them as under the Law. The New Covenant was only ratified after His blood was shed on the cross. Jesus did not collect tithes from anyone, though He came to die for all mankind, therefore don't allow any greedy or ignorant pastor, prophet, apostle, bishop or archbishop to bamboozle you into paying tithes.
WARNING TO FALSE PROPHETS AND PASTORS
All over Ghana, churches are springing up everywhere like mushrooms and this is a good thing only if the motivation is right. But the truth is many are in the ministry not because the Lord has called them, but because they want to make easy money from gullible people who don't know the Bible. They love your money more than they love your soul. They are in it for the money; it's all about the money. God has not sent many of them yet they run, giving false prophesies and vain promises to helpless people. Jeremiah 23:21; Ezekiel 13:1-23. The Lord will deliver His people out of their hands, but the people need to be wise, and stop giving their money to greedy wolves in sheep's clothing. These false pastors and prophets need to start their own businesses to make their money, and stop fleecing the people in the name of the Lord for judgment is coming and has come !
BLESSED OR CURSED ?
Finally, if anyone feels they are being blessed for giving tithes, good for them, and they can continue to do so if they like. But if you feel you're under a curse, I can assure you that it is not because you don't pay tithes, but it could be something else. The Lord Jesus became a curse for us so that the blessings of Abraham shall be our portion. Galatians 3:13-14. If there is any sin in your life, confess it before the Lord and ask for forgiveness. Change your ways and do what is pleasing to the Lord and let His blessings follow you.

The Minister must speak as a leader of a country with diverse religions. Ghana is one of the few countries where religion does not devide the society much but he should be very careful not to spark fire where there is no smoke. Everybody in ghana today is in a way involved. Go to our borders and see: the immigration officer,the black market money changers,the customs officer, border crossing contracters etc all forms of people believers and non believers are all involved.

NDC people killed, exiled, imprisoned, prosecuted, confiscated properties of many Ghanaians,and did so many things against CORRUPTION. Therefore, NDC owe us a duty of care to stop their corruption otherwise we shall take the law into our hands and deal with them.
WHY?
NDC imprisoned our families and friends for attempted or lesser crimes than what they have all committed so far. And so why should they be so corrupt? These NDC members were all in various positions during Rawlings government as Ministers, Commissioners, BNIs, Investigation Committee members and other appointees across the regions. Everyone in this present NDC served in one position or the other under JJ Rawlings and either helped to investigate, arrest, imprisoned and killed so many Ghanaians in the name of anti-corruption revolution. It was so scary then, and bet me they will taste the same bitter pill soon...
We all know this: We all have kept quiet but aware of everyone who played a part in their long winding bogus revolution that has gone full circle into a most disgraceful episode:
To kill people and confiscate their properties because of corruption, and then to turn round and steal so much monies in government is a shocker to my system: NDC must be very careful: One day, its not only them who will pay but their families, Inshalla.
And they are so rude about it: If the Church says you are corrupt and should stop, you idiot boy, who grew up eating rabies infested dog meat, says the Church is corrupt: Which part of the Church is as corrupt as NDCs, who have siphoned our monies to bribe Chiefs and Imams and propagandists and girlfriends in a common election that has cost us GH 8 Billion...
NDC must beware: The revolution awaiting them has never be seen and so should quiver in their sleep, NDC!

the pepeni is right , the verdict whatever the case can not throw the country into war rather can only be another nail in the coffin of already dead ghana . pepeni still has time till next year at least to start thinking of solutions in new job creating opportunities that ensure the wealth of the nation stays with the people of the nation , clean up the tribal corruption against Akans , reshuffle and create an all inclusive govt and not only toilet carrying alajih pepeni but also bring in the Akans in proportion to their population , no npp power sharing but all-inclusive in terms of ethnic back ground , stop lying and being biased in favor of Chinese Indians Koreans Turkish and Lebanese but look to find partners in Ghana with Ghanians. a proper investigation and inquest into the death of mills and not this flimsy excuse of'' believe us its not necessary attitude ''. appoint people based on competence and merit and not these amateurs who can only give him loyalty at the expense of the welling of the nation . yes you idiots out there asked me what my suggestions are and here they are so you don't say i only chastise and criticize without pointing out the solutions . if he doesn't do these things war will come sooner that you expect . personally i hope he is too stupid to do the right things and the country separates so we Akans move on without you fools

Even when Muslims do evil and corruption, they use Quoran to justifies their corrupt practices. There is no sin among Muslims, for Quoran justifies every sinful act.
Very soon, Syrian dictator will use Quoran to justifies the use of chemical weapons on his own citizens. Sadam did the same thing. Muslims will never know peace because of corruption and evil deeds. Now, they are taking refuge in Christian civilizations.
Do you know how many these corrupt beings want to take refuge in Europe and Australia. Muslims should respect Christianity, for Christians have done a lot for you.They will never know peace, for they have reject the 'King of Peace'. No Jesus No Peace; as simple as that.

1. Deity: In religious belief, a deity is a supernatural being, who may be thought of as holy, divine, or sacred.
The Bible and the Quran do not lead to the same deity
The Bible teaches and leads everyone to worship {GOD}…the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob (Israel)…the maker of Heaven and Earth….(Exodus.3:6). His name is “I AM”…. (Exodus 3:13-14) and his title is: “THE LORD”….(Exodus 3:15)
The Quran teaches and compels people to Allah
Muslim deity is god of FIAT (Allah) …Daniel Boorstin Quotes: "There is a vast difference between the Hebrew-Christian God and the Muslim God of Fiat (Allah)… The Muslim God, had a character quite different from the God of the Hebrews and the Christians (End of Quote)
Hadith 1:13-- "I have been ordered by Allah to fight with people till they bear testimony to the fact that there is no {GOD} but Allah."
Hadith 1.24 "Narrated Ibn `Umar: Allah's Apostle said: "I have been ordered (by Allah) to fight against the people until they testify that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that Muhammad is Allah's Prophet,
(Two completely different Deities –GOD and ALLAH ) (GOD has JESUS CHRIST as savior of humans; (1st Tim 2.5 – For there is only one God and one mediator between God and men –
Christ Jesus.
ALLAH has MUHAMMAD as his Prophet)
2. Religion: The Bible produces Christians from the lineage of Isaac and the Quran produces Muslims from the lineage of Ishmael. Christianity is not a religion, it’s a way of life and Christians LIVE it. Islam on the other hand is a (political) religion and Muslims PRACTICE their religion.
Surah (2:191-193) - kill the disbelievers wherever you find them, and drive them out of the places where they drove you out, for persecution of Muslims is worse than slaughter of disbelievers, so fight them until persecution is no more, and religion of Allah reigns supreme.
3. Love: The Bible teaches that God is Love and commands Christians to love one another and even love their enemies. For no one can worship God without love.(1John 4:16) and (1John 4:20) The Quran does not mention Allah as love, rather Muslims are taught to hate all who do not believe in Allah.
Hadith 19:4294 "Fight against those who disbelieve in Allah.
Surah (8:12) - "Allah will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Therefore strike off their heads and strike off their fingertips.
4. Killings: God can not confuse himself by saying “Thou shall not kill” to Christians and yet allow Muslims the freedom to kill. God is not a God of confusion but of peace. (1Corinthians 14:33)
Here is what Quran says about killing:
Hadith 9:4 "Wherever you find infidels kill them; for whoever kills them shall have reward on the Day of Resurrection
Hadith 9:50, 57 "No Umma (a member of Muslim community) should be killed for killing a Kafir (an infide. Whoever changes his Islamic religion, kill him."
5. Lies: The Bible teaches that Satan or the devil is the father of all liars and for that matter it is a sin for Christians to lie.
(Colossians 3:9 (John 8:44)
The Quran sees nothing wrong with lies and in fact, it IS NOT A SIN for Muslims to lie in support of Islam. They even have a word for this--Hudna which means establishing a peace treaty with the enemy that will not be honored.
Koran sura 8:30 … Allah is the best of all crafty ones.(Liars)
6. Way to heaven: The Bible teaches that, one has to accept God’s free salvation through Jesus Christ in order to go to heaven. (Acts 16:31)
The Quran on the other hand promises and opens the doors of paradise to Muslims when they partake in the course (Jihad) of Allah Hadith 1:35 "The person who participates in Allah's cause (namely, in battle) will be recompensed by Allah either with reward or booty or will be admitted to Paradise." to eat and drink wine to their satisfaction, with beautiful virgins and handsome boys lying down in wait to satisfy their sexual needs (55:56,58). (55:70-76). (78:33). (52:20, 44:54, 2:25). (37:48-49).
7. Morality:
Pedophilia: Muslim men are allowed to engage in sexual acts with children of ages as low as 6-yrs both Girls and Boys, (Quran 65:4) (Quran 52:26)
Bestiality: Muslim men are allowed to engage in sexual acts with Animals such as sheep, cow, ewe, camel etc; (Abu Dawud 38:4449) There is no punishment for one who has sexual intercourse with an animal. (Abu Dawud 38:4450)
Incest: Muslim men are allowed to engage in sexual acts with immediate family members (Quran 33:50) . An example is where a Muslim man and a Muslim woman give birth to a daughter outside of marriage; the man and the woman receive their lashes as punishment and their daughter becomes illegitimate child. The man then is allowed to marry his biological daughter under the pretext of illegitimate child.
Prostitution: Muslim men are allowed to have sexual relations with any woman (except married women) as long as a dowry is paid to the women, they can be married for even 15 minutes and they get what they wanted the marriage desolves. (Temporary marriage) (Quran 4:24)
Necrophilia: Muslim men are allowed to engage in sexual acts with Dead wives. (Sanaa'i laws in order to Cassani C 7 p. 34 ) An Imam(Sheikh Zamzami) issued a fatwa stating that necrophilia is religiously acceptable practice in Islam and that a husband has the right to have sex with his dead wife.
Quran 5:51.....Do not take Jews and Christians as friends....who ever does that is an infidel and must be killed

Tithing is robbing and stealing from God's people !
**************************************
This is the second and hopefully the concluding part of our discussion on tithing. And let me begin by saying that this article is intended for those who want to know the truth according to the Bible, and are willing to search the Scriptures to see whether these things are so. Acts 17:10-11. In the first part, many were enlightened and some burdens were lifted off many shoulders that have been groaning under the yoke of this bondage brought into the church by greedy or ignorant preachers. Others were mad because their false doctrines and greed and love for money have been exposed. Others were simply ignorant and behaved like the proverbial ostrich that would rather hide its head in the sand than confront error. And some were very indignant, insulting and cursing instead of proving their position by the Scriptures.
As said in the previous post, I used to teach and preach tithing, and when I did, the people just got up and parted with their money. One time, at a church here in Atlanta, Georgia, a pastor friend complained bitterly about the low financial position of his church and invited me to come and speak on tithing, saying his congregation didn't like tithing, and that even weekly offerings were very low. I told him, " Well, it's going to be different on Sunday." Then he asked me, " How ? " I said, " You wait and see ! " As you can imagine, the offering was over and above by about 1000 % the next Sunday. Those who didn't have cash wrote cheques like crazy, and I was proud to coerce them to bring out their money, telling them how they've robbed God and denied themselves blessings, using the "curse" of Malachi 3:9, for good measure ! Finally, I exhorted and commanded them, " Bring all the tithes into the storehouse.....! " I could see the terror on some faces and a lady was literally shaking as she wrote her cheque !
Lord, be merciful to us and forgive us for our many transgressions, twisting Your Word, misapplying Scriptures and abusing Your congregation with our greed and love for money ! Thank You for Your mercy and for Your blood which cleanses us from all sin ! I have repented and cannot in all good conscience preach or teach tithing again, because it is not for the New Testament church ! After carefully studying the Scriptures, I realized that Malachi was talking about corrupt priests in the Old Testament and not the New Testament believers, but these Scriptures in Malachi 3:8-12, have been used for generations to "scam" the Lord's people into parting with their money. Certainly, there are preachers who have been speaking against this abuse of Scriptures and "scamming" the Lord's people, but they have been looked upon with disdain and scorn and venom, but it is better for us to be scorned by mortal men than to fall into the hands of the living God. Hebrews 10:31. " Woe to the pastors that destroy and scatter the sheep of My pasture, saith the Lord." Jeremiah 23:1.
AM I UNDER A CURSE IF I DON'T TITHE ?
No, my beloved, you're not cursed if you don't tithe, and neither are you blessed if you do; God does not need your money in order to bless you ! Abraham was already blessed by God before he ever thought of giving tithes, and so don't let any sakawa prophet, pastor, apostle, bishop, archbishop, or whoever intimidate you by twisting Scriptures to steal your money. The believer should give cheerfully, out of love for the Lord and His work, and not be pressured or threatened or cursed into giving. Our giving could be 10%, 100%, 1000%, 1% or zero %. according to our ability ! The Lord is more interested in our motivation than in the amount we give. Do you remember the widow's mite ? Luke 21:1-4.
What is your motivation for giving money or property to the church ? Is it so that you could be elevated in the church by your pastor ? Is it so that people would know that you are the highest giver in the church ? Is it to support the Lord's work or do you want favours from your pastor or prophet or whatever they call themselves ? Are you under a guilty conscience and do you think giving money to the church would ease the pain ? Did you rob or steal or commit adultery or fornication and expect the pastor to take your money and pray for you ? Remember, the Lord says, " I hate robbery for burnt offering." Isaiah 61:8. He does not delight in "stinking" or blood money ! Alas, many preachers are so greedy for money that they don't even care how you got the money, and would put curses on you instead of blessings.
DID JESUS TEACH ABOUT TITHING ?
Yes, in Matthew 23:23, He acknowledged that tithing was an obligation under the Old Covenant, but even so He taught the Pharisees to show mercy and kindness and faith. Besides, the Old Covenant was still in effect, and Jesus spoke to them as under the Law. The New Covenant was only ratified after His blood was shed on the cross. Jesus did not collect tithes from anyone, though He came to die for all mankind, therefore don't allow any greedy or ignorant pastor, prophet, apostle, bishop or archbishop to bamboozle you into paying tithes.
WARNING TO FALSE PROPHETS AND PASTORS
All over Ghana, churches are springing up everywhere like mushrooms and this is a good thing only if the motivation is right. But the truth is many are in the ministry not because the Lord has called them, but because they want to make easy money from gullible people who don't know the Bible. They love your money more than they love your soul. They are in it for the money; it's all about the money. God has not sent many of them yet they run, giving false prophesies and vain promises to helpless people. Jeremiah 23:21; Ezekiel 13:1-23. The Lord will deliver His people out of their hands, but the people need to be wise, and stop giving their money to greedy wolves in sheep's clothing. These false pastors and prophets need to start their own businesses to make their money, and stop fleecing the people in the name of the Lord for judgment is coming and has come !
BLESSED OR CURSED ?
Finally, if anyone feels they are being blessed for giving tithes, good for them, and they can continue to do so if they like. But if you feel you're under a curse, I can assure you that it is not because you don't pay tithes, but it could be something else. The Lord Jesus became a curse for us so that the blessings of Abraham shall be our portion. Galatians 3:13-14. If there is any sin in your life, confess it before the Lord and ask for forgiveness. Change your ways and do what is pleasing to the Lord and let His blessings follow you.

Tithing is not robbing God`s people. It is right and must be encouraged. However members should not be coerced or frightened into giving. The problem is the selective use of tithing by pastors. How about Romans 13:6-7? It is also in the bible and must be preached and encouraged on the same level as tithing.

Look at this Islamic buffoon castigating the Christian church as corrupt! What about the Islamic faith? As a former Moslem, l can say without fear that the founder of the Islamic faith was more corrupt than his present followers. When he pitched his tent in the Valley of Bedir, between Mecca and Yetrib (Medina), what did he do to the caravan that passed by? What did do to Abu Safian? Please, Mr. Murtala, do not step into an area you have no idea of. Much as l do agree that there are bad nuts in the Christian faith, it would have been equally "JUSTICE" for you to have mentioned the much corruption infested in the Islamic faith right from the founder and adulterous Mohammed to the present date Mullahs.

As the head of the Economic management team of the Atta Mills Presidency, John Mahama did not do much to arrest the galloping and speeding off phenomenon of corruption brewed and officially sanctioned from the very seat of gov't-The Castle. It was at that time that, Woyome, CP, Isofoton, Embraer Jet, Hangar for the plane, Cuban scholarship debacle, the NDC newly built headquarters etc, etc, all came up, and till today, nothing has come out of it. Is the minister saying that, between that time and now, there has been a transformation and a chromosomal evolution of John Mahama that, he's now capable of dealing with the canker called corruption, in which he has been cited, in a number of deals, which leaves a sour taste in the mouth of Ghanaians?
On a scale of 1 to 10, the Mills-Mahama-Amissah Arthur administration ranks at 10, as the most corrupt gov't ever in the history of governance in Ghana. A typical case is the GYEEDA scandal in which John Mahama is engaging in a merry-go-round with the populace in trying to get to the bottom of the rot and financial malfeasance bordering on criminality that has plagued his gov't. There's no way the present administration can deal with this rot and the AG, who has been tasked to prosecute those who are found culpable, was at one point involved with one of the companies that was involved in the woyome thievery of gargantuan proportions. Ghana is not going to make any progress with this Mahama-Amissah Arthr administration whose only aim and ambition in gov't is the officially sanctioned pillaging and drying up of the national kitty via corruption and financial re-engineering and outright thievery. The admission of the minister and his attempt to justify such crass and uncouth corrupt tendencies in gov't by roping in other institutions clearly begs the issue, and paints a picture of a systematic failure by the John Mahama gov't and governance gone haywire.

LOOSE N UNDIPLOMATIC LANGUAGE OF MINISTERS. It appears the out of college boys who have been appointed as ministers were not given enough time to train under more experienced ministers; it is obvious that they have not been trained in the art of diplomatic-speak and to comport themselves as ministers representing the whole of Ghana.
Unfortunately for Ghana they have turned their positions into platforms of propaganda only to serve the purposes of the NDC and not the whole nation including the 47% who did not vote for them. They are managing the country only for them and their supporters; not inclusive at all.

THE MOSQUES ARE THE MOST CORRUPT AND THAT IS WHY MAHAMA ASSOCIATES HIMSELF WITH THEM. NO SERIOUS CHRISTIAN GOES AROUND GIVING BIRTH IN TOWN LIKE MAHAMA DOES. THIS IS A MOSLEM LIFE STYLE
Those stupid ministers like murtaka Must be sack from the fake Government of NDac
THERE IS NO KOFI NI AMA IN THE MOSQUE. THERE IS NOT 10% ROBBERY IN THE MOSQUE. THE LEADER OF PRAYERS IN THE MOAQUE, IMAM, DOES NOT TAKE MONEY FROM MOSQUE GOERS.
THERE IS NO REOBBERY IN THE MOSQUE.
So moslems are perfect is that what you are saying? Great! the greatest concentration of moslems are in the middle east....the verdict is out. Saudi Arabia still practices slave trade and have slaves all over there, the last ...

Tithing is not robbing God`s people. It is right and must be encouraged. However members should not be coerced or frightened into giving. The problem is the selective use of tithing by pastors. How about Romans 13:6-7? It is ...

Mutala corruption, churches in Ghana who are by way are political parties and not churches rank number one.
This ignorant deputy minister is the most corrupt and myopic. The church and other private institution don't take taxes from the masses backed by the law of the land.
LOOSE N UNDIPLOMATIC LANGUAGE OF MINISTERS. It appears the out of college boys who have been appointed as ministers were not given enough time to train under more experienced ministers; it is obvious that they have not been ...

Murtala Muhammed wants to be seen huh? Well, enjoy your surprise position, it's going to be short-lived so talk as much as you can for now, it won't cost you a pesewa!!
This idiot should answer the question about corruption in the government before criticizing, PERIOD !! Is he trying to say if those mentioned by him are corrupt, then it's okay for the gov't to be corrupt? Aboa bi ba.
Murtala as usual with his feeble mind forgot the huge corruption and illegalities that goes on in and around our Mosques honesty always should be the key my friend.
IF THE GOVERMENT KNEW THE CHURCHES IS CORRUPT, WHO TO FIGHT THAT, ITS NOT THE SAME GOVERMENT? WHAT COME OUT OF THE GYEED`S REPORT?
No wonder politians would defend themselves by seeing the church corrupt
Mr. minister pls get serious..........
Mr. minister are you trying to cover up with the accusation that the church is also corrupt? hahaaa go and retrieve the SADA money and stop beating about the bush. STEALLERS...
