Pastor Abiara To Christians: You Don’t Need To Know What Your Tithe Is Used For, Leave It To God’s Servant
Sunday December 10, 2017 – Pastor Abiara To Christians: You Don’t Need To Know What Your Tithe Is Used For, Leave It To The Servant Of God
Prophet Samuel Abiara, the outgoing General Evangelist of the Christ Apostolic Church worldwide has lent his voice to the viral tithing controversy.
His words:
We are going to do exactly what the Bible commands us to do regarding the issue of tithe. There is nothing that any human being will say about it that we will listen to, particularly if such views run contrary to the arrangement of God concerning the issue. There is no logic that can erase what is in the Bible.
We are under obligation to bring 10 per cent of the profit that we make from our business transactions or from the salary we earn. This is contained in the Bible book of Malachi 3:10. The Bible also warns that whoever fails to act accordingly is under a terrible curse. God even challenged us to put him to test and see if he would not open wide the windows of heaven to bring us blessings.
Salary earners should first deduct the tithe before spending anything from their income. It is the only command with a promise for those who obey and a curse for those who disobey. Tithes must be paid directly to the church where one worships. It is wrong of anybody to share his or her tithe to the needy directly. The Bible says it must be brought to the storehouse which is the church.
You don’t need to know what happens to the tithe you pay. Leave it to the servants of God who will use it for evangelism. It is not for you to investigate how the money is utilised. Many people bring problems upon themselves when they feel that they know more than God.
However, it is compulsory for the servants of God to give account of the tithe and other offerings paid by church members to avoid corruption. Proper accountability of incomes accruable to the church will enable the authorities to pay the salaries of pastors and other workers as and when due.

“You don’t need to know what happen to the tithe you pay”.
Is this statement not laughable enough! Pastor Abiara….Your message can only be heard and be accepted by the spiritually blind ones that have no time to search for the truth. Even moses that wrote the law concerning how the tithe you are here trumpeting Christian to pay, did not hide whom it should be given and how it should be spent.
Moses wrote in the book of deuteronomy 26:12 that“ when you have finished setting aside the tenth of your produce in the third year, the year of the tithe, [you shall give it to the levite, the alien, the fatherless and the widow], so that they may [eat] in your town and be satisfy”.
Now let us even assume or accept that christian are still under the “law of moses” or the “mosaic law”giving to the ancient nation of isrealites that permitted tithing which christ death of course has already nullified, how many of you so called pastors are doing exactly what is stated in the book of deuteronomy 26:12?
How many of you are using the money realized from your tithes in the church to support the alien [ the strangers, homeless, fatherless, widows and the disadvantaged] as commanded by the law of moses? Saying that people do not need to know what happen to the tithe been paid by church members only goes on to expose the deceit, fraud, falsehood and dishonesty among you so called pastors.
This is quite a shameful statement made in the public. If the law of moses could state how the tithe should be spent , who are we to say otherwise? It is a pity how christendom churches have succeeded in deceiving a staggering number of people using falsehood and false teachings, indirectly robbing people of there hard earn money.
Many do not simply understand how the death of jesus christ correlated with the law of moses that permitted tithing and how christian are no longer under that written law. Christ has already blotted out and nailed the “certificate of indebtness” or “handwritten law” or “the written law” to the cross according to collosians 2:14 rendered in several bible versions. But which law is this portion talking about? The law of moses that permitted tithing. It was this law of moses that apostle paul was referring to when he stated in the book of Galatians 3:24 that “so the [law] was our guardian until christ came that we might be justify by faith”. When christ came and shed his blood for the sake of sinful mankind, christians therefore are no longer under the [law] that permitted tithing that also served as human guardian before the arrival of jesus.
Christian are asked to make voluntary contribution in the church according to 2 corinthian 9:7 and not tithe that made it a compulsory act under the law of moses that christ death has already nullified.
So Let’s stop being deceived and stop deceiving others with falsehood.

Well said @ Endo. Honestly, I begin to loose my regards for all these men who called themseves “Servants of God“ instead of -Religious Business men-
Its amazing how God could used Daddy Freeze who‘s not even in the corridor of any spiritual commitment to exposed all these business men.
There are so many commandments in the old testament Bible that is not practiceable today. So, why holding soooooo firm and strong on this tithe thing as if its the very essence of Christianity and not salvation that Jesus Christ had to come down from Heaven above to die for?
Ok, talking about the Biblical sense of tithing, do you think our so called pastors today will recieve stuffs like Yams, Plantain, Oranages, Banana etc as tithe so that “THERE MAY BE MEAT (food) IN GOD‘S HOUSE“?
All I can say is, May God bless Daddy Freeze richly for speaking out loud.
I take a stroll…

Thanks my friend. Don’t mind them. All they clamor for is monetary contribution and not any farm produce from there church members. If they really want to follow there outdated and outlawed tithe they preach today, why don’t they ask church members to donate tenth part of what they have, like things you mentioned above. In ancient time, tenth part of isrealites produce is what was requested according to the law of moses and not money. The bible says “so that there would be FOOD in my house”. But this is contrary to what we see today in the church. Today’s pastors sole attention is placed on raw cash from there congregant. Thieves!

Is tithe for men of God or Levites, there are so
many prophet in the bible that are not from tribe of Levi, so when did all this Nigeria pastor become levite overnight and claimed right to tithe? our pastors have taken advantage of our ignorant to drain us of our little resources on the ground of being man of God, they should support their position with biblical proof not this assumption of lies and deception.

Adams…the fact is, none of the so called pastor can defend there outright extortion of money called tithe from there church members. they can’t simply defend it! All they quote to support there systematic theft in the house of God is malachi 3:10. That’s all! Further explanation cannot be giving to support there lies. No wonder the bible tells us to get out of any religion that are not teaching the truth from the bible. I read in a certain news outlet 2 days ago of how a husband lamented that his wife has killed him. That his wife withdrew 10million naira he labored for all his life with the aim of building there own house and donated it to there church where they worship. He requested for an advise on the social media and people were telling him to sue the pastor that collected such money to the court. that since the woman insisted she donated the money to the church, it may not have been in the woman’s clear eyes that she did it, that the pastor need to be investigated. This is the height of fraud many pastors have subjected themselves in the name of tithe just to deceive there gullible followers. When There judgement will come from God, it will be very hash and eternal.
