Some of these pastors even have ATM machines inside the church, where as, members have no choice but to give their tithe each week. Sounds like money-making scam to me.

It appears to me this Bro. Amartey is a propaganda secretery for anti-christ who want to deceive many to disobey God. Befoere I make any comment I want to ask this Bro. Amartey a simple question why government needs tax or takes tax for. Is it not to expand infrastructure and to expand the economy?
In Malachi 3:10, as Amartey claims has been wrongly interpreted, God said "Bring all tithes into the storehouse, that there may be food in My house". The store house here is the house of God, ie, the Kingdom of God on earth. Therefore to pay tithes into God's kingdom, no doubt, is to expand the kingdom business and to support the needy and those who have denied themselves for doing God's work.
There is no doubt that there are some men who call themselves 'men of God'and are using the name of God and the Bible deceiving many. This does not mean that it is wrong and unscriptural to tithe.
Tithing is not Old Testament Jewish law, because Abraham tithed 430years before the law was given to Moses (Galatians 3:17; Genesis 14:17-20). Jacob, Abraham's grandson, also paid tithes long before the law was given to Moses (Genesis 28:20-22).
2 Timothy 3:16 "All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness". God is not a contradicting God, it is the way people interprete the Bible like Bro. Amartey is doing here. If you do not understand something, ask and do not put yourself into danger. It is very dangerous to bend the Word of God (Revelation 22:18). There is no space to say all but if you want to understand why we MUST pay tithes, email me at (mymessages@yahoo.co.uk). Do not follow Amartey to disobey God. God bless you.

REVEREND IS AN ANGLO-SAXON WORD MEANING-worthy of reverence or respect. HOWEVER, I AGREE NOT ALL PEOPLE WITH THE TITLE REVEREND ARE WORTHY OF RESPECT. YOUR HIGHNESS, IS THE WAY WE ADDRESS JUDGES IN COURT, IT IS ALSO USED TO ADDRESS GOD. MASTER IS ALSO USED TO ADDRESS GOD.
PASTOR IS A TITLE THAT IS SUPPOSED TO BE SOMEONE WHO LEADS THE FLOCK BUT MANY DO NOT. MANY HIDE UNDR TITLES TO SLEEP WITH MARRIED WOMEN, LIE ABOUT PROPHECIES, BRAIN-WASH THE CHURCH AND ROB THE CHILDREN OF GOD BLIND THROUGH TITHES.
TITHES IN THE BIBLE WAS NEVER COLLECTED IN MONEY. IT WAS ALWAYS FOOD. BRING THE TITHES SO THERE WOULD BE FOOD IN MY HOUSE. THOSE WHO BROUGHT MONEY WERE ASKED TO BUY FOOD WITH THE MONEY AND BRING THE FOOD TO THE TEMPLE.
CARPENTERS AND FISHERMEN DID NOT PAY TITHES. THE TEMPLE DID NOT TAKE TITHES FROM PEOPLE LIKE JESUS WHO WAS A CARPENTER. CAN YOU PROVE ME WRONG FROM THE BIBLE? ONLY FISHERMEN AND ANIMAL HERDERS PAID TITHES.
THE POOR DID NOT PAY TITHES. THE POOR AND WIDOWS WERE GIVEN TITHES TO SURVIVE. PLEASE PROVE ME WRONG. IT IS SINFUL TO TAKE TITHES FROM THE POOR AND THEN PROMISE THEM BLESSINGS. ONE SHEEP WAS TAKEN OUT OF TEN AS TITHE. IF YOU HAVE LESS THAN TEN SHEEP, YOU DID NOT PAY.
MEN OF GOD IN THE BIBLE LIKE PROPHETS DID NOT TAKE TITHES SIMPLY BECAUSE THEY DID THE WORK OF GOD. ONLY THOSE FROM THE TRIBE OF LEVI RECEIVED TITHES, AS WELL AS THE ORPHANS AND POOR. THE LEVITES RECEIVED TITHES BECAUSE THEY WERE POOR. PROBE ME WRONG FROM THE BIBLE.
JESUS AND HIS APOSTLES DID NOT NEED TITHES TO SPREAD THE GOSPEL. THEY DID A MAGNIFICENT JOB WITHOUT THE ROBBERY OF TITHES. WE CAN DO THE SAME. MANY CHURCHES SPREAD THE WORD WITHOUT THE SIN OF TITHE ROBBERY. WE CAN DO THE SAME.
THE BLOOD OF CHRIST BROKE THE CURSE OF THE LAW, IT BROKE THE CURSE OF TITHES. IT IS A LIE AND A CON MADE TO TERRORIZE THE CHILDREN OF GOD THAT WE ARE UNDER A CURSE IF WE DONT PAY TITHES.
ARE YOU UNDER A CURSE IF YOU DONT SACRIFICE ANIMALS TO GOD? GIVE TO GOD WILLINGLY, NOT LEGALISTICALLY. WE ARE VICTORIOUS UNDER THE BANNER OF HIS BLOOD. THE CURSE IS ON THOSE WHO ROB THROUGH TITHES IN THE CHURCH.
THE BLOOD FREED US FROM ANY CURSE OF THE OLD CONVENANT.

Jesus did not accept tithe. How did Jesus and the apostle spread the gospel? Jesus was from the tribe of Judah, so he cannot accept tithes. That was unlawful and sinful.
Pstors cannot accept tithes today.

Tithing Principles
22 “You shall truly tithe all the increase of your grain that the field produces year by year. 23 And you shall eat before the Lord your God, in the place where He chooses to make His name abide, the tithe of your grain and your new wine and your oil, of the firstborn of your herds and your flocks, that you may learn to fear the Lord your God always. 24 But if the journey is too long for you, so that you are not able to carry the tithe, or if the place where the Lord your God chooses to put His name is too far from you, when the Lord your God has blessed you, 25 then you shall exchange it for money, take the money in your hand, and go to the place which the Lord your God chooses. 26 And you shall spend that money for whatever your heart desires: for oxen or sheep, for wine or similar drink, for whatever your heart desires; you shall eat there before the Lord your God, and you shall rejoice, you and your household. 27 You shall not forsake the Levite who is within your gates, for he has no part nor inheritance with you.
28 “At the end of every third year you shall bring out the tithe of your produce of that year and store it up within your gates. 29 And the Levite, because he has no portion nor inheritance with you, and the stranger and the fatherless and the widow who are within your gates, may come and eat and be satisfied, that the Lord your God may bless you in all the work of your hand which you do.

The new priesthood can receive tithes?
ONLY THE TRIBAL PRIESTHOOD OF LEVI RECEIVED TITHES. THE APOSTLES AND AND THE EARLY CHRISTIANS WHO CAME AFTER THEM DID NOT RECIVE TITHES. THEY DID NOT PAY TITHES AND THEY DID NOT TAKE TITHES. YOU CAN READ CHURCH HISTORY. THE PEOPLE OF CHRIST CANNOT BE FOOLED FOR EVER. STOP THE FINANCIAL RAPE IN THE NAME OF CHRIST. THE GOSPEL OF JESUS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH LIES AND MANIPULATION. PAUL, JOHN, MATTHEW, LUKE AND PETER DID NOT PAY TITHES AND THEY DID NOT RECEIVE TITHES. THIS IS THE SIMPLE TRUTH THAT THE TITHE ROBBERS OF TODAY CANNOT CHANGE.Y
MANY MATERIALISTIC CHARACTERS HAVE FLOODED THE CHURCH BECAUSE THEY THINK THERE IS MONEY TO BE MADE. THERE ARE SHEP TO BE FLEECED. NO MORE! THIS HAS GONE ON FOR FAR TOO LONG. THIS YOKE OF TERROR HAS TO BE REMOVED.
Church that force people to pay tithes?
I USED TO GO TO THE CHUCH OF PENTECOST AND I HAVE BEEN TO OTHER CHURCHES. YOU ARE SHAMELESSLY PRESSURED TO YOUR TITHES. EVERYBODY KNOWS THIS. THE TITHE CARD, THE SPECIAL PRAYERS FOR TITHERS ARE ALL FORMS OF PSYCHOLOGICAL FORCES. NOT TO MENTION THE SCARE TACTICS- YOU ARE ROBBING GOD! IF YOU DON’T AY TITHES YOU ARE UNDER A CURSE! GOD WOULD TAKE AWAY FROM YOU IF YOU WITHHOLD TITHES FROM HIM! THE PRESSURE IS EVERYWHERE. ONLY THE LEECHES AND PARASITES WHO BENEFIT FROM THE TITHES DON’T SEE THE PRESSURE.
THE BIBLE SAY THE POOR SHOULD NOT PAY TITHES BUT BE GIVEN TITHES. BUT THE PRESSURE IS EVEN ON THE POOR. THE POOR ARE MADE TOPAY. SOME PEOPLE PAY TITHE ARREARS.

Use the money to take care of the church and help the poor and the needy among you. That was exactly how Christ lived on earth. Unlike the Otabils, Duncan Williams, TB Joshua, Benny Hynns etc who had built financial empires for their families for life using tithing of the poor.
That was not what inteded Tithes and offerings to be used for.

Elder Opoku calls himself christian yet does not know Christ. Give me just one instance where Jesus instructed people to tithe or any of the Apostles instructed anyone to tithe? A poor soul who is definitely going to hell for putting himself under the law instead of the Grace of our Lord Jesus. Elder Opoku you claim God's store house means the house of God and by extension the Kingdom of God. If this is not bending and twisting the word of God then I do not know what bending is.

How ridiculous to equate state taxes to the seemingly blantant robbery from congregations in this conutry with the pretext of thithes.I am a devout christian in the Presbytarian church and none of the rubbish happenning in the charismatic churches ever happen here.The thithes issue is fast becoming a mantra for the apostolitic churhes promising heaven and riches to congregations in the same way jihadist promise heaven to indoctrinated sucide bombers. Offering is a voluntary exercise, priest dont have to pontificate and employ the tactics to harrass unsuspecting worshipers hand over their fortunes to enrich arrogant and ignorant priests.

Opoku, I do not agree with you and do not judge so that you will not be judged. Fact is this tithe matter is relatively new here in Ghana. I am over 50 and I can promise you that in the 70s before the rise of Rev. Yeboah Koree et.al there were the traditional churches such as Presby Methodist etc.. and they never asked for any tithe. They had regular monthly ' Nkasaho' before communion and members paid their dues..It was what was then known as 'sunsum sore' translated as 'spiritual churches' became popular around Aceampong and Rawlings time..The curfews of PNDC era gave room for these charlatans to manipulate the vulnerable. Visa promises, prosperity promises, etc..accentuated the inherent 'someone else-is-responsible-for-my-failure culture' of the African and Ghanaian in particular. You see before these curfews, there was a vibrant night life in Ghana- Orion, Odeon, Rivoli, Globe, Rex etc suddenly these cinema halls and other warehouses were converted into CHURCHES..why? because Ghanaians were glued to videos (stay home entertainment) and the abandoned cinema halls were converted.. So Opoku, trust me..tithe is a new phenomenon in Ghana orchestrated by the 'new' Churches to fleece the gullible. ( just my view, I respect yours but this is my perspective and please do not start insulting:-))

before the law came into being, tithing had been practiced by Abraham,Issac and Jacob.
Tithing did not come with the law of Moses and cannot be done away with cos the law is no more.

Brother Amartey, If I were you I wouldn't speak on areas where I am ignorant of. Yes I admire your desire to sell books but concepts of these nature are a bit beyond you.
First and foremost check your own personal life. From Ghana and your stay in UK. Look at your family life (you know what I mean). Then check your moral life.
Do you realize the cause? It is because your foundations an principles governing your life is totally flawed. Tithing has a place in God's plan for our lives. IT IS TO PROVE THAT GOD IS FIRST IN OUR LIVES.
Has the system been abused? Yes like any other system but remember that "bad government is better than no government".
Maybe arrogance is not helping you see beyond yourself. Please be careful.

Discouraging people from paying tithes is a sinister Satanic activity to slow the pace of the propagation of the gospel. It is his aim to appeal to our unsanctified human nature--which represents him-- to impoverish the coffers of the church so that supporting missionary activities and paying pastors will be nearly impossible. Thus discouraging people from entering the ministry.
How else can the church help a society in need if it can't even pay for a full-time pastor? A church located in a poor neighborhood may give very little offering which may not even pay for the maintenance of the building, let alone pay a pastor. God's work cannot be done by the unsanctified human whims. The tithe is a systematic and holy way (Lev 27:30) of carrying on the Lord's work.
The tithe could be paid in money in the OT.
"And if the way be too long for thee, so that thou art not able to carry it; or if the place be too far from thee, which the LORD thy God shall choose to set his name there, when the LORD thy God hath blessed thee: Then shalt thou turn it into money, and bind up the money in thine hand, and shalt go unto the place which the LORD thy God shall choose" (Deuteronomy 14:24-25).
Question 1:
In John 4:23 Jesus said to the woman at Jacob's well "But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him."
1 b. Did Jesus ever say that the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers will stop paying tithes?
1c.
Is there any intimation anywhere in the bible that tithe payment obligation will end in the Old Testament dispensation, and that New Testament believers will not need to pay tithes?
The less emphasis given in the New Testament about the tithes does not necessary mean that the New Testament believers are free not to pay tithes.
Case in point is God's Law (Ten Commandments). The fact that it has received less emphasis in the New Testament, and the most populous church in the world today, made changes to it in the 4th century AD, does not necessary mean that God abrogated his Law at the cross, neither more does the abuse of the tithes in the years after the first century indicate that tithe paying in the New Testament is unbiblical.
Question 2.
Did Jesus know that the tithing will continue after he leaves this world? (Yes.) Note his unspoken agreement of tithing in this text:
"Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone" (Matthew 23:23).
"These"-- That is, the less weighty things that often consisted primarily in outward form. Jesus here approves of tithing. Neither He nor any NT writer in the least relaxes the obligation. Jesus makes it clear that He was not against tithing as such, but against the hypocritical spirit of the scribe and Pharisee, whose religion consisted in the scrupulous observance of the forms of the law.
Nichol, Francis D.: The Seventh-day Adventist Bible Commentary, Volume 5. Review and Herald Publishing Association, 1978; 2002, S. 490
God is looking for a people who will represent him correctly through his grace, the unmerited favor by which God gives us the character of Christ by freeing us from the guilt and power of sin. It is grace which makes obedience to God's law possible-- "For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light" (Matthew 11:30). May God help us to represent him correctly by surrendering ourselves and all we have to him as we walk with him through his grace!
"... but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at my word" (Isaiah 66:2).

There is no where in Bible that tells us to pay a tithe in every month. There are many commands in Old testament that God commanded Isrealites to follow so that they would be blessed. Tithe is one of them. Why have we abondened the others and chosen only tithe? Only ignorance can make anybody to pay tithe. Even Bible says I should eat my tithe.

Use the money to take care of the church and help the poor and the needy among you. That was exactly how Christ lived on earth. Unlike the Otabils, Duncan Williams, TB Joshua, Benny Hynns etc who had built financial empires for their families for life using tithing of the poor.
That was not what inteded Tithes and offerings to be used for.

The name demonstrates three wording. The last was the name of the place before Abraham would moved from Iran the country of his parents to Canaan, the original place of the black race(Salem).
The middle name speaks for itself "ru". And the first is "Je". Putting it together, we get ;Jesus_rule_salem. or Jew_rule_salem, where Abraham/Isaac/jacob was not a jew but hebrew. Jesus Christ was a jew. Jews comes under Moses.
We are reading from a book which was originated and inspired by the Master Author the Lord God, who is Jesus Christ. Some of those who are quoting and learning from this book call bible are wearing the titles of the master author. What is that? plagerism or blaspheming. Your're just a student trying to wear the rope of the original author as a prophet,Rabi, Holy Father and a shepherd.
This is so totally disrespectful, a high school pupil in USA will say.

If you are a Christian and you want to tithe, that is fine but you are not going to be cursed for not doing that. The bible says no one is cursed under Christ Jesus. Christian giving is based on: 1)cheerful giving; 2) whatever you give determines what you are going to get back. The problem with tithing is it does not make one free in Christ Jesus is it is tied to a curse. People can choose to tithe but it is still a form of giving. What is amiss is the preaching that your tithes belong to God before the actual offering in even required. I think a little bit too much for most congregation when some of the Pastors end up being rich and not helping the poorer members of the congregation. It is American capitalistic Christianity.

Another concept being used by these pastors nowadays is seed sowing. They would ask members to come forward for prayers to their problems and while at the front of the congregation ask them to sow a seed.
They even go to the extend of telling them how much seed they ought to sow. Here in the UK the amount demanded, is usually a minimum of £500. This is demanded after they have asked you to step forward for prayers. In this way people are put under pressure to part with the money, as some pastors insist after you've come to the front that you go back and sit down if you do not have the amount being demanded. what a shame.

You are a greedy pastor. You dont pay tithes, you rob tithes. This is a big sin. Pastors who take tithes are sinning.
You are dnot a levite so you cannot take tithes. Jesus and his apostles did not take tithes to support the gospel. They spread the word of God without tithes from anyone.
The tithe was never taken in money, It was only food.
Only farmers and herders paid tithes. Fishermen did not pay tithes. The poor did not pay tithes. The Bible says give the tithes to the poor, dont take tihes from them.
Pstoes should stop taking tithes. it is not Biblical. It is evil and sinful.

setho,
the monies God asked the levites to collect was so thatthe poor and orphans would have something to eat if they visit the house of God. Today, churches use these for profitable projects. There should not be any obligation for any percentage. Rather, any church goer should contribute something towards paying of utility bills, cleaners and priests and for maintianing the church building.

Fine, if its ok to pay tithes, why keep records of it? why tithing determines Church members? is tithing the foundation of modern day Church, all Pentecostal and charismatic church practiced this?. Teach truthfully on tithing if its still relevant in modern day church, let the people pay to God and let them be accountable to God not mankind. You can attend a church, do church work, offertory upon offertory if you don't pay tithe you are not a member of the church but a friend why? what determine a member of a church by scriptures?

Jesus also said you cannot put new wine into old wine skins. If you want to tithe, fine but don't threaten people they are going to be cursed. The jews had three categories of tithes. Giving one tenth of you income may still not meet the law's definition of tithing. If your house appreciates, you have supposed to tithe that. That is why Christ himself came to bring us freedom from the law because we could never meet the obligations of the law as humans.

It's with utmost disgust that I comment on the this topic on tithing.Can the writer tell me which part of the bible is not relevant? It may be true some pastors are extorting money from the members, BUT THE TRUTH OF THE WORD OF GOD STANDS FOREVER. Take it or leave it, but as christians we have to obey abd believe the whole bible, not part of it. I don't see the problem people have with Malachi3:10-12.Is it the pastors who wrote that verse? People have problem with giving to the Lord's work, but can donate money willingly elsewhere. If you are not giving to the church, let it rest with you, but do not pollute the mind of others not to give.Whether you like it or not, those who love and obey God, will continually give their tithe.

Use the money to take care of the church and help the poor and the needy among you. That was exactly how Christ lived on earth. Unlike the Otabils, Duncan Williams, TB Joshua, Benny Hynns who had financial empires for their families for life usung tithing of the poor.

If you carefully read the Bible, you will see that before God blesses his people, He always asks them to do something - Either sacrifice, or purify themselves or give some kind of offering. Tithing, is therefore scriptural. But greedy pastors, who demand tithes but never take care of the needy, orphans, widows, or the disadvantaged in the community are the problem. These see tithing as their way to riches. It is up to us to determine who is genuinely doing the work of God and send our tithes there accordingly!!!

PEOPLE BELIEVE THEY MEAN WHAT THE PEOPLE WANT THEM TO MEAN. we are told THE WORLD NEEDED REDEMPTION AND THAT THERE IS NO REDEMPTION WITHOUT SACRIFICE WHICH COULD ONLY BE BY A PURE BLOOD. SO GOD DECIDED TO BECOME A HUMAN TO DIE IN ORDER TO FORGIVE US. WHY WILL GOD DO THAT? HE SET HIS OWN RULES("NO SACRIFICE NO FORGIVENESS")AND COULD NOT BREAK THEM. SO HE NEEDED TO ALLOW HIMSELF TO BE KILLED SO HE COULD FORGIVE US. THE "KILLERS" OF CHRIST ACTUALLY WERE THE BEST OF HUMANITARIANS TO HAVE EVER LIVED ON MOTHER EARTH FOR GIVING US "SALVATION"

You cannot pay for God's blessing with tithes or animal sacrifice. Jesus blood replaced all that. His blood cleared the curse of the law. You are not under a curse if you don't pay tithes. Pastors are telling your money.

HE CANNOT PICK AND CHOOSE WHAT HE WANT TO DO AND NOT TO DO IN THE BIBLE,
Still, you have not provided any scriptural basis for your statement. In the old Testament, you sacrifice animals. Do you still do that because it is in the Bible? That would be a very simplistic view of scripture.
INSTEAD OF ATTACKING THE PRINCIPLE OF TITHING WHY DONT U CONCENTRATE ON WINNING SOULS
Martin Luther fought against the church taking money for forgiveness of sins. He fought the entire church.He changed the church for the better. This is exactly what Bro Amartey is doing. God is with him.
WHO ARE NOT BORN AGAIN FOR GOD?
If you are born again, you dont manipulate people to take their tithes. You are not afraid of the truth. You are born again in the image of Christ, not greed amd materialism.
AND STOP THAT CHILDISH DEBATE OF TITHING,
It is a very relevant and important isue for many christians. The fake pastorsdont want to talk about it because they are afraid the masses would be educated and set free.
IF U WILL NOT GIVE TITHE GOOD FOR U, ALLOW US TO GIVE,
You dont give. I knoe your kind. You only receive from the sweat of others. stop it, stop it now! Give your life to Christ and stop the greed and exploitation. The spirit has led Bro Amartey and he is getting stronger and stronger. Many of us would support him in Jesus name.
DON'T BE A PHARISEE, U WILL NOT ENTER NEITHER WILL U ALLOW THOSE WHO TO ENTER TO DO SO.
The tithe robbers are the pharises, they are the criminals. They are the manipulators. Youa re very scared of Bro Amartey. Like darkness, you are afraid of the light. Like satan, you are afraid of the truth of the gospel.

Any way for your information, any amount of tithe you pay in the church, at the end of the year you can claim it on your tax returns , as long as is not more than the 10% stated in the Bible. The fact that some people have made themselves rich from the tithes does not invalidate the tithing command. Jesus said, I have have not come to destroy or overthrow the law but to fulfill it. Do not be deceived, the tithes were for the priest, and as long as there are Priest , there will continue to be tithing. Are you saying you know the Bible more than the Christian country which has decided to pay all the tithes that anybody living and working there has paid by making them write it off during tax returns. In America, when filing your tax, there is a section that you are asked for the tithe and offerings you paid to churches and contributions to non profits, the government will give you all the tithes and offering back, eg. If you made 100,000 and you paid10,000 the government will give you back your ten thousand tithe in a form of tax write up,what they are doing is , the nation is paying the tithes indirectly thru her citizens, that is one of the reasons why the nation is still blessed. Why will you believe some part of the Bible and not believe the other

You are right in your own mind. That says your Qur'an. Do you know what the Bible says about the judgement day? It has nothing to do about tithing and offering.

Tithing did not come with the law of Moses and cannot be done away with cos the law is no more.
