Question for Christians: Tithing

[Taz]

If God wants the money.......He can take it

God loves a cheerful giver....
He wants us to give because we are happy to

Pedophiles have expense too.

Yes, and they relied on the 'Gay Rights' movement and advertising in homosexual magazines for recruiting members and raising money, something Democrats like to support and protect.

FYI, the gays rights movement has nothing to do with pedophiles. Now you know.

Now we know you'll shill for pedoes. The 'gay rights' movement loves its pedo contingent, which is why their sicko fronts were part and parcel of it organizations from the beginning.

You're homophobic, probably because you have some gay feelings yourself, and you're scared. There, there, you'll be alright.

And the problems the Catholic Church experienced from the 1950's through the 1980's was a homosexual problem and not a pedophile problem. Now you know.

Actually, the preists were preying on kids. Even YOU know that.

Look at the data.

Ok, it was both.

And regular homosexuals aren't pedophiles, the two aren't linked. Look at the data.

That would be too much of a coincidence.

Naw, man, it's your side that gets all hung up over sex.

They don't care. They just want to indulge their homophobia

You're confusing the 2 things, homosexual and pedophile. Sure, some pedophiles prefer the same sex, but regular homosexuals aren't pedophiles.

I'm not confusing it, I'm with you. It's Dingo who wants to conflate the two.

Priests either molest boys because it's not natural for men to go without sex.....or.....they become priests cause they are not attracted to women and try to hide their deviancy with the cloth

Shall a man rob God?

He seemed to think it important when He asked that.

And He attached an amazing promise to those who observe this law

Here's a better quote.

"Why does God need a Starship?" - James T. Kirk

If God is indeed omnipotent, omniscient and eternal, he really doesn't need 10% of the earnings of us poor mortals.

This is where the whole Abrahamic notion of God gets to be silly. An eternal being who controls an entire UNIVERSE really shouldn't be concerned about the finances of a few microbes on the third planet around Sol 3. But you would have to believe he does, and he really cares what kind of sex you are having in your ephemeral existence, which would be less than a blink of an eye by his standards.

 

[Cecilie1200]

Is it commanded by God, or is it optional?

If optional, what makes a tithe different from an offering?

I believe most denominations view it as mandatory, although obviously it's optional in the sense that it's between you and God, and no one's going to show up on your doorstep and force you to do it.

The Catholic priest are trying to be holier than thou. Paul said that he was able to fight off sexual immorality from his mind. But to those that aren't able to do so, then they should marry. That they shouldn't deprived themselves from having sexual relationship if they aren't strong enough. The Priesthood is forcing servants to be something that they cannot be. That is against what Paul was preaching. But then there are some that enter the Priesthood so that they can prey on children, just like how some teachers becomes teachers just to get next to children. Those are wolves in sheep's clothing. But those that cannot withstand from coveting after someone should get married. Like there are some inmates that can withstand from having sexual desires entertaining their minds. But then there are some that cannot and will rehearse their sexual fantasies with someone of the same sex. while in prison But then that there are those that only have desires for the same sex.


Matthew 7:15 “Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves.

1 Corinthians 7:1 Now for the matters you wrote about: “It is good for a man not to have sexual relations with a woman.” 2 But since sexual immorality is occurring, each man should have sexual relations with his own wife, and each woman with her own husband. 3 The husband should fulfill his marital duty to his wife, and likewise the wife to her husband. 4 The wife does not have authority over her own body but yields it to her husband. In the same way, the husband does not have authority over his own body but yields it to his wife. 5 Do not deprive each other except perhaps by mutual consent and for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer. Then come together again so that Satan will not tempt you because of your lack of self-control.

Well, it's not really "for him" - mostly it's to provide for "The Church", the bride of Christ. The Gospel spreaders etc.

again, God could tell his followers to buy Microsoft and give that to the Church. It would seem to me that an omnipotent being would be a better financial planner.

I can't tap into the mind of God. You'd have to ask someone closer to Him....

sure you can read what Jesus said.

Actually, the bible was written several generations after the facts, minimum. So everything Jesus "said" was hearsay.

except all the Gospels were written by guys who never met Jesus personally.

Actually homosexuals commit from one third to one half of all child molestations, and they are only 1%-2% of the population, plus their 'Rights' movement hoax had pedophile rapist fronts on its organizational advisor committees for decades, with few complaints outside of some scattered lesbian activists who were promptly ignored. The Founder of the first 'Gay Rights' organization in the U.S. was Harry Hays, a Communist, and he is famous for his support of NAMBLA throughout his years as a leader, even wearing a NAMBLA Walks With Me sign board when some lesbians managed to get the NAMBLA marchers tossed out of a Pride Parade, a very rare occurrence. Homosexuals and pedophilia are indeed close enough together, and even of those who might not be molesters themselves, they most certainly have a very high acceptance and tolerance for it and have no problems with kiddie rapers, so yeah, it's more than correct to tie them to each other's mental illnesses and fetishes. Posters like Syriously actually try and spread the nonsense that Christians are supposed to hand their own children over to pedophiles, based on some distortion she likes to quote deliberately out of context.

Actually, the bible was written several generations after the facts, minimum. So everything Jesus "said" was hearsay.

Actually the main theology was already well known before the fall of the Second Temple, and established before the 2nd century; the four Gospels, Acts, and Paul's letters were never in dispute anywhere, and the orthodox theology was by far the most prevalent, so much so that nobody thought about there evenbeing a need for a 'canon' at all, until Marcion's fake version began to be discussed. So, we're talking one generation, with it being widespread by the 2nd and 3rd 'generations' across the entire Roman empire and into Ethiopia and India.
