this is called peer pressure... usually starting from the pastor and they quote the 10% bit. so is it 10% or the above scripture?

kwani if you don't tithe the only other thing you can do is drink, do drugs and hire langaz? judge not TM.

my take on this is that Tithe is a requirement but the tither has a choice to do so cheerfully ama it will be displeasing to God.


hehehe kinda reminds me of the mafia collecting protection money.. if you look at a guy vibaya he'll think that you'll cause trouble so the guy might nyonga you... so better chuck the chumes cheerfully for ur own good. you wouldn't want to displease God now would you?
