Ghanaian actor and man of God Majid Michel has countered the claims of Nigerian OAP Daddy Freeze who insists that tithing is wrong and not a commandment of God.
Daddy Freeze has always screamed for all to hear that the act of tithing or paying tithes to Pastors is a form of robbery on the parts of the pastors. He went further to buttress his claims with some parts of the bible during a life interview with LIB.
According to Freeze, the commandment of tithing was not for us but for some priests in the old testaments.
Meanwhile, man of God although not ordained, Majid Michel has countered these claims, insisting that God has commanded all to pay tithes into his house that food may abound and more importantly for the welfare of the poor.
He however commented that although, some men of God do not use the tithes as commanded, that does not mean we should disobey or rob God by renouncing the payment of tithes.
Freeze has since responded to the actor as he took to his page to share a photo of the actor and wrote:
Dear @majidmichelmm, the leader of the #FreeNation greets you and brings glad tidings.
–
You wrote a piece on tithing that a lot of people tagged me in.
–
Let me address this here, and properly!
–
Although you raised some valid points about your tithe belonging to the poor. I will still say you were still a bit economical with the truth, with regards to giving it to a Church, especially those churches whose GOs own private jets, yet their schools are unattainable to this same poor you are talking about, with many members unemployed, facing serious financial challenges.
–
Acts 4:35 tells us that the disciples shared the offering equally with every believer, yet daddy GOs fly their jets alone; WHY?
–
Listen guys, neglecting the poor and needy, has the dire consequence of Everlasting HELLFIRE! Read from Mat25:32 Not paying tithe has no biblical consequence TO A CHRISTIAN!
–
Malachi 3:8-10 was addressed to the priests, NOT to us, as they were robbing God of the 10% of the tithes they were to bring to the storehouse as instructed in Nehemiah 10:38
–
Paying tithe to a church is NOT a ‘Christian’ practice, as Jesus never collected tithes and our first pastors, the 12 disciples didn’t collect it either.
–
As a matter of fact, tithe was not collected by any church for 600 years after Christ’s crucifixion, so how did tithing find its way into modern day Christianity? Some greedy thieves must have introduced it to favor themselves and their ridiculous jet set lifestyles.
–
Furthermore, your tithe is supposed to be eaten as directed by God in Deut 14:22-26 for the firsts 2 years! It’s the third year’s tithing that belongs to the levites, NOT PASTORS, levites so tithing is not even supposed to be a monthly practice!
–
Also, the church is NOT a building, as many of you are confused into believing please refer to Acts 7:48 and Acts 17:24.
–
YOU ARE THE CHURCH. So the notion of giving tithe to a man on the pulpit, inside a building is absolutely false!
–
Majeed, you are right in the sense that the poor should be given the tithe but why give it to a church if you want it to get to them…… don’t you know any poor people you can give it to directly? ~FRZ
