Learn the truth about tithingLearn the truth about tithingLearn the truth about tithingLearn the truth about tithing Has anyone ever taught you the truth about tithing? Well it’s

time for you to learn the whole truth. When any Christian has

learned the truth about tithing, then he or she has a moral duty

to God to spread the gospel so new converts aren’t deceived. A

deception is premised on hearing half of the truth. The only way

to clarify a misconception comes from hearing the whole truth.

If you continue to read this article, then you will become privy

to the whole truth about why our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ

has ordained Christian ministers to preach the gospel.

Tithing giving God the firstTithing giving God the firstTithing giving God the firstTithing giving God the first

tenth otenth otenth otenth of your incomef your incomef your incomef your income Tithing is giving God the first tenth of your income. God

has ordained the Leviticus priesthood to collect tithes.

Since God has specified a set percentage to pay as a

mandatory requirement, then such payment constitutes a

debt owed to God. The Lost Sheep of Israel or the Jews

were obligated to section off one tenth of their crop. In

other words tithing meant food rather than money.

Everything I have I owe to GodEverything I have I owe to GodEverything I have I owe to GodEverything I have I owe to God Persons, who pay tithes may actually believe he or she owes

God for everything I have. This is the mind-set of a debtor. If a

person has misbelief he or she owes God, then it weighs on his

or her conscience. In other words, he or she may feel a sense of

guilt or shame for cheating God by not making regular tithe

payments. The only way to overcome the guilt or shame for not

paying tithes or falling behind paying tithes is by learning the

truth about tithing. Pastors who are collecting tithes from

believers are in jeopardy of teaching a false doctrine. If a

person has accepted baptism he or she doesn’t pay tithes.

Tithing is collecting a paymentTithing is collecting a paymentTithing is collecting a paymentTithing is collecting a payment When a pastor accepts tithes it is the same as collecting a

payment for owing a debt to God. Tithes come off the top

meaning that before paying any bill members must subtract

his or her tithes to fulfill God’s law despite being burden with

other debts. Tithing payments may impose a burden on the

congregation, but church members feel a sense of obligation,

because the pastor pressures him or her to pay tithes. Under

our New Testament we’re no longer debtors but heirs. This

means God doesn’t obligate believers to pay their tithes.

Tithing creaTithing creaTithing creaTithing creates a tes a tes a tes a debtdebtdebtdebt Tithing creates a debt same as a student loan, auto loan, home

mortgage note, furniture bill or credit cards etc. A debtor is any

person who owes his or her lender. The only difference between

tithing and any other debt is tithing can’t be paid off until one

has deceased. In other words, one must struggle his or her

entire life paying tithes. Jubilation is when a debtor has paid his

or her final note or payment to dissolve their debt. Apply this

analogy to understand the gospel of Jesus Christ. Believers are

jubilant that we are no longer indebted to God to pay tithes.

God doesn’t make loansGod doesn’t make loansGod doesn’t make loansGod doesn’t make loans God doesn’t make loans! Instead, God showers us with his

magnificent blessings as gifts to show how much he loves us.

God’s blessings are like being awarded grants or scholarships. In

other words God doesn’t burden us to pay him back. We don’t

owe God one red cent. The biblical terminology for charity or

grace simply connotes that God’s love is free of charge. If we

attempt to pay God back by paying tithes, then we offend God.

He becomes insulted that we’re still paying tithes after Jesus has

shed his own blood for the remission of sins to pay off our debt.

Jesus’ Last SupperJesus’ Last SupperJesus’ Last SupperJesus’ Last Supper The Last Supper is key to understanding Jesus’ New Testament.

The twelve disciples were witnesses who attested to his final

hours prior to his crucifixion. The testimony that Jesus Christ has

given at his Last Supper has become the foundation for Christian

or Catholic theology. It is imperative to understand the meaning of

testament to fully appreciate Jesus’ New Testament. A testament

is a will and a covenant that forms a contract with God. In order

for Jesus New Testament to become valid he gathered his twelve

disciples at the Last Supper to bequeath his body as a sacrifice.

CommunionCommunionCommunionCommunion Luk22:19 And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it,

and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for

you: this do in remembrance of me. The twelve disciples serve

as witnesses to attest Jesus’ testimony about what he wished

to be done in remembrance of his sacrificial crucifixion. After a

Christian or Catholic believer has received Communion or

Eucharist as an act of faith his or her sins have been washed or

cleaned by the blood of Jesus Christ. Communion or Eucharist

has supplanted the need of tithing to God under the Law.

New TestamentNew TestamentNew TestamentNew Testament Mat26:28 For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed

for many for the remission of sins. God has forgiven the sins of all

mankind who have accepted Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior. In

respect to the Jews and nonbelievers they must stand in judgment

before God to answer for his or her own personal sins. Jesus serves

as the atonement of sins for Christian and Catholic believers. In other

word God has pardoned us from Judgment Day. This is the essence

of what the gospel of the New Testament is all about.

Last Will and TestamentLast Will and TestamentLast Will and TestamentLast Will and Testament Visit www.etymonline.com and search the definition of

testament: late 13c., "last will disposing of property," from Latin

testamentum "a last will, publication of a will," from testari

"make a will, be witness to," from testis "witness," from PIE *tri-

st-i- "third person standing by," from root *tris- "three" (see

three) on the notion of "third person, disinterested witness." The

Last Will and Testament is a valid legal instrument to publicize

instructions made by the bereaved for the naming of heirs and/or

executors to his or her estate after he or she has deceased.

Two men went to the temple to prayTwo men went to the temple to prayTwo men went to the temple to prayTwo men went to the temple to pray Luk18:10 Two men went to the temple to pray one a Pharisee the other a

publican. The Pharisee prayed a self-righteous prayer to thank God for not

being as other men are extortionist, criminals, adulterers or publicans (tax

collectors). The Pharisee bragged about his fasting and paying tithes. The

publican prayed a humble prayer where he confessed to being a sinner

and asked for God’s forgiveness. Which of the two men do you think God

has forgiven his sins? Then answer is God has forgiven the publican!

two mites that make a farthing. Jesus praised her, because she had

given all she had. The poor widow woman gave from her heart to

prove how much she loves God to give what she could afford. In

contrast Jesus has rebuked the Pharisees for paying tithes but have

overlooked the weightier matter of God’s judgment. Luk11:42 But

woe unto you, Pharisees! for ye tithe mint and rue and all manner

of herbs, and pass over judgment and the love of God: these ought

ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone. Jesus’ has

frowned upon the Pharisees as being hypocrites.

What is Judgment DayWhat is Judgment DayWhat is Judgment DayWhat is Judgment Day???? Judgment Day is when God calls nonbelievers of Jesus Christ to

stand in judgment for his or her debt of sin. Whenever any person

breaks a single Ten Commandments, then he or she has become

indebted to God. Hell is a prison God has ordained where he shall

condemn nonbelievers to serve time throughout eternity. God has

divided our world into two (2) main categories of believers vs.

nonbelievers. It doesn’t matter what type of sin persons may have

committed. God has ordained Jesus eminent authority to forgive

all manner of sin except blasphemy of the Holy Ghost. In other

words, convicted felons may go to heaven if he or she has called

upon the name of Jesus Christ as his or her Lord and Savior.

Prison is hell Prison is hell Prison is hell Prison is hell hole hole hole hole here on Earthhere on Earthhere on Earthhere on Earth Prison is a hell hole here on Earth. It is the worse hell hole

known to mankind. It has been designed for the specific purpose

to inflict pain and suffering upon convicted felons. The blood of

Jesus Christ has the power to redeem men and/or women

serving time behind bars in prison here on Earth. Faith in the

gospel is the only key that may unlock prison doors to free those

who have called upon the name of Jesus Christ as our Lord. Are

you a believer or nonbeliever who understands what faith is?
