Tithes Have No Place In Christianity.
The Ex-media aide to former President Goodluck Jonathan, Reno Omokri has reopened the topic of tithes in Christianity.
Naija News learnt that the socio-political analyst stated on Twitter that tithes have no place in Christianity.
Omokri wrote in a series of Tweets that he had read the bible cover to cover and has not seen a place where God commanded congregants to give their pastors tithes.
* The ONLY time it is permitted to pay tithe in money rather than in agricultural produce is if you are a Jew who lives far away from the temple in Jerusalem. In such instances, you must spend the tithe on your own self to the glory of God Deuteronomy 14:24-27

Be suspicious of forms of Christianity that emphasise tithes rather than salvation. Tithing not a means to salvation. Financial breakthrough is not evidence of God’s favour. Many atheists have financial breakthrough. Salvation is the whole point of the church #FactsAboutTithes

The fact that tithing is a Mosaic Law and not a Christian practice DOES NOT mean you shouldn’t give generously. It means that you should give as a matter of FREE WILL not as a matter of COMPULSION. Giving is recommended but NOT mandatory for Christians 2 Cor 9:7 #FactsAboutTithes

Tithing has no bearing on salvation. Not paying won’t cause early death because God doesn’t protect you from satan “It is by grace you have been saved, through faith- not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so no one can boast” Ephesians 2:8-9 #FactsAboutTithes

* Notice I have backed everything I say with Scripture. Dont argue with me on what your pastor said or what you believe. Disprove me with Scripture or hold your peace.
* Again, I say with all fear of God that tithing is a Mosaic Law, not a Christian practice— Reno Omokri (@renoomokri) July 9, 2018
Naija News also recalls that the Cool FM OAP, Daddy Freeze had several times warned Christians to stop paying tithes to those he described as ‘pulpit bandits’ as it definitely attracts a curse from God.
In his latest remarks, Freeze was quick to point out that the Facebook CEO does not pay tithes or first fruit before going on to strongly encourage Christians to leave tithing alone.
In his words, “Third richest man in the world, no tithes, no first fruit, no seeds to Pentecostal principalities, no money given to pastors for prayers. This year alone he has given &3.58 billion to charity. None of the top 10 richest in the world are tithe payers or even Pentecostals.
Freeze continued, “God doesn’t need your money, the poor do! If you want to give money to God, give to the poor, NOT TO PASTORS! Mat25:32–41 explains this clearly! There is NOWHERE IN THE NEW TESTAMENT where Christians were told to give money to pastors, or the church, the New Testament giving went to the poor, yours too should go there as well!
“Tithing is the law Heb7:5 if you practice some parts of the law without practicing all of it brings a curse Gal3:10 and you fall away from God’s grace Gal5:4. Stop paying tithes to pulpit bandits, it attracts a curse and cuts you away from Christ, little wonder Jesus or the disciples never collected it!”
