FOR TITHES OR AGAINST TITHES:A BALANCED APPROACH

The subject of tithes is heavily debated with each sides providing strong points for or against it.But the truth is that most honest pastors are innocently ignorant of the possibility that tithes have been abolished because there are still many scriptures both in the new & old testament that seem to suggest its still in full force and secondly the magnitude & multitudes of mega testimonies of unimaginable rewards & benefits many tithing members have recieved at one time or the other .One of the strongest points against it aside from the biblical claims of oppositions against it is that pastors loot the same tithe money of the members which point I will also address.I don't really believe tithes are still relevant today but I pay tithes all the same because:- -- 1.)

While it's a bit less pushy with Windows Vista and 7, allowing users to postpone the restart for up to four hours, you may not be at the computer to intercept the first or subsequent notifications. In many cases this isn't a major deal. However, it can be frustrating if you step away from a work session and come back to a freshly rebooted system.

Windows Vista/7: Open Start and search for cmd . Right click on the found program and click Run as administrator. Enter the command net stop ...
