It is vital that we continuously seek His guidance.
All that is required is do you ask the Father before giving a tithe to the Church. It is a common and wise practice. Above all, what is essential for the Lord is to do what He says, not our wishes, no matter how noble and pleasing the idea may be.
Despite that, pagans and religious charlatans understand this particular God’s principle. Even though they knowingly prefer materialism to obeying God’s commands.
In addition, Samuel told Saul, “I am the one the Lord sent to anoint you, king, over his people, Israel. So, listen now to the message from the Lord. Now go, attack the Amalekites, and destroy all that belongs to them.”
Saul believed he had acted correctly. He replied, “But I obeyed the Lord. I went on the mission the Lord assigned me. I destroyed the Amalekites and brought back Agag, their king.” Today, one would ask him Do you ask the Father before executing the job the way you did it?
But was that the instruction God gave him? No! It’s all about carrying out His orders correctly. Let us strive to listen to and obey the word of God. His word is always specific because God is a spirit.
No wonder you cannot see His face and live. That is why we must ask ourselves the question before tithing: “Am I doing the will of God, or am I only pleasing the pastor or myself?” And remember, the question is nothing more than whether you ask the Father before giving a tithe?
Furthermore, the Father was specifically identified with the Jews in the Old Testament. He told them, “Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me on this.”,
Remember, do you ask the Father before tithing?
During the allotment of territory, the Levites did not receive any land, as they were the Lord’s inheritance. This meant that the other eleven tribes were responsible for providing for their own needs through farming and feeding them.
The same God who is Jesus did not instruct us to tithe. In Matthew 23:23 and Luke 11:42, He spoke of almsgiving, reprimanding the Pharisees’ self-righteousness.
Many ministers may be sincere. They collect tithes to perform good deeds. However, our Lord Jesus never asks His followers, Christians, to tithe, regardless of the interpretation of self-interest that we present.
Food obtained through fraud is akin to coercion for tithes. The Bible tells us that food gained by fraud tastes sweet. Yet, one ultimately ends up with a mouthful of gravel. Therefore, do not coerce your church members if you truly trust God.
Consider how wonderfully God could use you and your Church. To provide for widows, orphans, and others in need, you must test Him. Reflect on following His directive and witness His grace. He is the Lord.
A lady went to a Pentecostal church early one morning. She returned home late at night, barefoot. Due to the pastor’s coercion, the church members pledged various properties. Most of these con artists employ witchcraft to seduce and plunder their congregants.
The Holy Spirit predicted that these frauds would not be terrified of hellfire. They shall be when the time arrives. He is the God of principles, and it does not matter whether one agrees with Him or not.
Steer clear of King Saul’s mistake when paying tithes.
After making all the money on Earth, you know, He has rules to follow. As a pastor, you collect tithes and other dubious payments. You can’t escape from him—Jonah tried!
Rest assured, you will pay with your souls when the time comes. Do you ask the Father’s guidance before giving a tithe? What profit is there in gaining the whole world but losing one’s soul?
Please inform any Pope, Bishop, G.O., Pastor, Evangelist, Teacher, etc., where in the New Testament Jesus stated that Aaron, invariably a minister, should collect the tithes.
At least in Malachi 3:10, the Lord was clear to the Jews: “Bring all the tithes…”. Christians worldwide wish to know.
So, please tell us where Jesus explicitly asked us in the New Testament to tithe. When responding, kindly provide proof from the Bible, as it is a reliable source that cannot be challenged, to avoid making grand rhetorical claims regarding what you do or might do with the collection.
We believe you are a genuine man of God serving the Holy Spirit in your capacity, but you are doing what He did not ask you to do by collecting tithes. Is that correct? Otherwise, shouldn’t Samuel admonish you as he reprimanded King Saul?
If you pay tithes but constantly question yourself: Do you ask the Father before giving a tithe to the Church? The scripture says that if anyone knows the good they ought to do and doesn’t, it is a sin for them (James 4:17). Remember to obey the Lord in all things.
