God gave us all things when he gave us Christ. The life of Christ is the blessing poured out from heaven mentioned in Malachi. I agree with you. Tithing is a false teaching.

God blesses you, but you don’t want to bless others? Or support His church?

Modern Preachers treat the Bible as a Self-help text book for the carnal mind. Polish up the Old man and he remains worthless.

Tithing is as per the Bible ...it is God who is commanding us to tithe..

Amen

You will get blessings in finance

Doing the right thing means you are with God and God is beyond situations

Amen i testify to that 👍 Our seed has been a defender in the day of adversity!

Amen. Same here.

Good for you I have my father's blessings and I only give cheerfully

There is no basis for teaching someone owes 10% of income. Teaching generous, joyously, consistent giving is fine. Not under the law, not as a principle, not as some concept strangely conflated with first fruits.

Not through tithing

And now our motive for tithing is not so God will bless us but because He already has blessed us.

@harryturner4255 yes Harry 😊 But it's still not an obligation.

Well Said!

The firstfruits in the biblical tithe refer to giving a portion of the first of the harvest to take to the temple for the priest to bless and then you take that portion to eat at the temple in celebration with your household and anyone you choose to bless with to eat with .

Not the first apple but the tenth apple ,read how the levites counted the tithed PRODUCE

Absolutely it never does say that ,thank you for pointing this out

People were bringing there wealth in feet of Disciples

​@ajitbagyes some were but it is not REQUIRED h3388

He is making it up

God doesn't need your money. He owes all the cattle on a thousand hills.

The same way you can open a muffler shop. You just do it!

I mean, from my understanding, the firstfruits was simply a basket filled with the best fruit from the first of the harvest (And that this wasnt done everytime things were picked / harvested. Are you sure it was even every tenth?

Show me where Jesus commanded his followers to tithe money.

@@YhwhKhaiMostHigh show me where Jesus said don't tithe.

@@harryturner4255 Where in the Bible were tithes received from earned wages?

@@markb7067 in New Testament under the Roman Govt the economy changed from produce and livestock to a monetary system. So giving became monetary as well. The parable of the talents had nothing to do with using our talents but being good stewards of our money as a talent was sum of money. Also as Jesus observed the people dropping tithes and offerings into the box they weren't putting produce or livestock in they were putting money in. The widow put in 2 small coins in which was all she had to live on. The New Testament church gave money as the sold property and possessions and gave all the money they received to the Apostles. They actually gave their money over and above the tithe.

@@harryturner4255 Money was widely traded in the Old Testament as well. Notice how offerings had a monetary equivalent in specific denominations in Leviticus 27 yet the tithe of the land did not. Also, notice the reference to earned wages in Haggai 1:6. The point is that money was certainly traded during those times, yet not accepted as a tithe deliverable with the possible exception of the land tithe redemption, and there was a penalty assessed for doing so. The tithe of the herd had no redemption option. Only consumable items from within Israel were accepted as a compulsory (required) tithe deliverable. God's commanded tithe was fruits, vegetables, and clean livestock. Lev. 27:30, 32, Num. 18:27, Num. 18:28, Deut 12:17, Deut. 14:22, Deut. 14:23, Deut. 24:21, Deut. 26:12, 2 Chron. 31:5, 2 Chron. 31:6, Neh. 10:37, Neh. 13:5, Mal. 3:10, Matt. 23:23, Luke 11:42.

Only 10%? That’s stingy

Hey, so good to be generous. But the idea that you should be tithing off income - there is no basis for that whatsoever.

Tithing is not required and there is no such thing as giving seed money to become prosperous

That is not even a thing,first off no tithe of money was ever accepted .second ,the tithe was counted at the 10 th item counted

Forget that insight. No where in the Bible does it require a "firstfruit " money income tithe or money firstfruit. You are being manipulated by a tithe preacher who is after your money

​@@michaelmerck7576bro read 2Cor 9:6-11.❤

Tithes required to the church by some preacher never go to God because God did not require the church to pay tithes. All tithes go to the pocket of the these preachers. Tithes are agriculture products, hence it will be delivered into the storehouse, Mal 3:10 not to the treasurer and its for the levites to survive because God did not give them land but to serve in the temple. The eleven tribes of Israel are required to pay tithes not the church. Are these preacher levites? Where in the bible that convert tithes into cash? The church is encourage to give freely without quota cash or whatever as they purposed it in their hearts. Paul as the apostle to the gentiles never commanded the church to pay tithes.

Tithing isn't a Christian doctrine. There's nothing wrong with practicing it as a discretionary act of systematic giving, there's just no biblical requirement for anyone to perpetually pay 10% of their earned wages to a religious organization, and there never was.

It matters because people who are in a position of trust and power are using that power to guilt you into forking over 10 percent of your income when the bible doesn't teach this.yes it's big and these preachers are the real crooks

@@michaelmerck7576 but how do people say they are blessed after tithing? They notice a night and day difference from tithing and not tithing..?

@@peterc504 There are people who have gone broke tithing too. Subjective opinion is only a person's experience through their lens. There's nothing wrong with choosing to tithe if you can afford it and feel you are prompted to do so. There's just no biblical mandate for anyone to continually pay 10% of their earnings to a religious institution.

@@markb7067 I guess so it's confusing to me to think if you gave to God he doesn't give you what you need to live..

Haven't you heard? The tithe is the one exception.

I didn't find grace anywhere but the name of the church in this awful excuse for a church service message

​@@thecatalysm5658I missed that one ,my bad

Here for bants. Gentiles have no authority from God to take tithes and offerings from Jews or gentiles, because they are not from the tribe of Levi's from the levitical priesthood. God ordained the tribe of Levi to take tithes and offerings from the children of Israel [Hebrew 7:5] Jesus said to His apostles and disciples, in whatever house you enter, there abide, eating and drinking such things as they give for the labourer is worthy of his hire [Luke 10:7]. This is how a true minister of God is supposed be walking in the truth of the gospel. Paul said to Timothy, do not muzzle the ox that treaded out the corn. And, the labourer is worthy of his reward [1 Timothy 5:18]. This is how a true minister of God is supposed to be walking in the truth of the gospel. The ministers of God are not walking in the truth of the gospel, because they are using the levitical priesthood law of tithings and offerings, to collect money from the children of God. Paul said in [2 Corinthians 9:7]. "God loves a cheerful giver". It's all about giving to the poor. Jesus said, it is more blessed to give than to receive [Acts 20:35]. Freely you have receive, freely give [Matthew 10:8]. It's all about giving to the poor. A gentile pastor or minister, taking tithes and offerings from gentiles is a sin, because they are not from the levitical priesthood tribe. And the law of tithing is not of faith. And that no one is justified by the law in the sight of God, is evident, for, the just shall live by faith [Galatians 3:11] A true minister of God lives by faith. And without faith it is impossible to please God [Hebrew 11:6] A true minister of God cannot please God without faith. Paul withstood Peter to the face, because Peter was not walking in the truth of the gospel [Galatians 2:11] The church is supposed to tell the gentile pastor or minister, you cannot take tithes and offerings from Jews or gentiles, because you are not from the levitical priesthood tribe. And if the pastor or minister neglects to hear the church, Jesus said, let him be like a heathen man and a publican [Matthew 18:17]. A church that is not walking in the truth of the gospel, or that it doesn't want to use the scriptures, rightly dividing the word of truth [2 Timothy 2:15] , is not going to be an effective church for spiritual exhortation or edification. And this is why the pastors or ministers are making themselves rich, for filthy lucres sake.

The tithing pastors NEVER teach this subject in context and it's making me every time they misuse Scripture and teach it out of context. My last church did this nonsense. All they did was pick a Scripture here and there out of context and built a doctrine around it. SMH how the average church aren't even behaving like Bereans these days.

We learn in spirit and in truth

And to spend the entire sermon to preach bad and erroneous teachings is bad enough but to misuse the Bible to make people feel they should give money to the church

@@YhwhKhaiMostHigh the really evil ones could find a tithe message in Jesus wept

Why not?

I'm not disagreeing with you but I'm also interested .... why isn't he?

Because he isnt rightly teaching the word of God ,that should be enough to make me not take anything he says as accurate ​@@Jujashan

No. Tithing is Not NT biblical.

No. Works cannot make one right through God.

This guy is a charlatan and a heretic, his message comes from the bowels of hell and that is where he is from, Satan’s bowels.

That's funny, because I know tons of tithers who are in their graves who lived paycheck to paycheck and never made ends meet and those on government assistance and SSI.

Seriously,I've seen many who weren't

And you can't refute what Creflo said can you? NO! He actually said what the OT tithe was chapter and verse and yet you still walk away believing what you want to. Todays church is sad and do not study scripture in context!

@@YhwhKhaiMostHigh pimping pastoring same! It all do as they believe. I lean towards Ray Hagn, He makes it make sense.

Why do we buy insurance for everything if we are walking with the word of the Lord and trusting him to rebuke the devour for our sake‘s it just makes me wonder if we trust the power of tithing do we need to trust the security of the world It’s just a thought that came to mind

Ever notice how they don't fully use Abraham's example right? They somehow skip over that. Now why is that? All of you tithers who see Abraham as your hero of tithing, you do know he NEVER gave of his own income right? If you think he did, prove it! You do know he gave away the other 90% right? You do know there's no place in Scripture where he ever tithed again right? Did you pastor tell you this?

@@YhwhKhaiMostHigh I totally agree with you. They also like to leave out that the tithe Abraham gave was from spoils of war, not from his personal property. Also, he gave the 90% to pagan kings. I was victim of the this false tithing doctrine for many years and was so scared not to tithe that even when I didn't have enough to pay the bills in and was close to losing my electricity, I dared not skip paying the tithe!. The day my eyes were opened, it felt like a ton of weight came off my back and the freedom was so amazing.

Any preacher who tries to use that I dismiss as conmen

@YhwhKhaiMostHigh how sacrificial is it to tithe on stolen money

​@@YhwhKhaiMostHighof course the preachers won't mention that .

Must be a scammer because he isnt a comedian

Understand what?

When you give freely under no compulsion you won't be tithing ,after all why limit God to a certain percentage
