Seriously it's sad that they'd rather believe a widespread lie than be empowered by God's truth! I pray for them that they will be awakened even if it's by what they may find to be a painful truth rather than continue to be lulled asleep by this seductive lie.Jeremynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-87478718178909945882013-06-11T22:57:20.860-07:002013-06-11T22:57:20.860-07:00Sorry, but you have misquoted the scriptures.

Without that knowledge, you leave yourself open to error.<br /><br />The law that was done away was the ordinances that were the works of the law. <br /><br />Not the commandments, for we see in Romans and Revelation, that the commandments are considered HOLY and if not obeyed one would not be allowed in the Kingdom of Yahweh.Sweetblood777https://www.blogger.com/profile/11000268749016977800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-44285394366321040422013-06-11T00:02:35.673-07:002013-06-11T00:02:35.673-07:00Great piece on tithing!

I reckon it's the best book out there that dispels the myths of tithing absolutely! I only wish there was a similar book or books on other ACOG doctrines likes sabbath, holy days, clean/unclean meats, etc. It was this book that opened my eyes to the lies and deceptions of tithing as officially taught by the ACOGs in all their literature.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-69099565358874282882013-06-10T23:02:16.950-07:002013-06-10T23:02:16.950-07:00"Tithing was part of the old law (of Moses) w..."Tithing was part of the old law (of Moses) which was fulfilled (completed) by Jesus."<br /><br />That statement is simply not true. Jesus fulfilled the requirements of the law Himself, He did not abolish the law. He kept the law perfectly, there was no sin in Him.<br /><br />People simply do not understand what it "Jesus fulfilled the law" means.....for some odd reason most believe it means that He did away with the law, even though He says not a jot or tittle will be changed.<br /><br />Then they expand it to include abolishing the Sabbath and Feasts, food laws, etc....<br /><br />To each his own I guess.....<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-50199066931541952782013-06-10T10:50:10.429-07:002013-06-10T10:50:10.429-07:00Just by coinkydink, I stumbled across this message...Just by coinkydink, I stumbled across this message "<a href="http://jcstudies.com/resourceDetailFree.cfm?productId=440" rel="nofollow">Tithing Reexamined</a>" by Dwight Pryor a few days ago, and being of a Jewish background, I wondered what he would say about it.<br /><br />His basic point is, don't be a greedy prick, give to charity as you are able, as that's the socially responsible thing to do, and don't give it to greedy pricks who pick & choose selective verses and interpret them so as to guilt-extract as much cash from you for themselves (not god).<br /><br />He starts off by saying that orthodox Jews don't tithe because there's no temple, no preisthood, and no Levites. Without that, the entire institution is defunct. As if that weren't enough, he talks about how it was only on agriculture increase, never hourly wages, how the third tithe was always supposed to be handled privately, not centrally, and how during the seventh year there was no tithing because of the land rest. Funny how Herbert Armstrong never thought it worth his while to mention any of those things. Greedy prick.Head Ushernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-63106740367555983102013-06-10T10:42:38.108-07:002013-06-10T10:42:38.108-07:00WWJB?

$25,000 Steuben for ...WWJB?<br /><br />What Would Jesus Buy?<br /><br />$25,000 Steuben for his office?<br /><br />Doubt it...<br /><br />Where did Jesus build his School for the Disciples campus?<br /><br />Nowhere<br /><br />What make and model chariot did Jesus, the Disciples, Apostles and Paul use to go to all the world? <br /><br />Feet<br /><br />Mega Churches and the one man act in Christianity, along with Televangelists over the last 50 years have made fools of themselves and Christians with their public ignorance and excesses.<br /><br />I'd not worry about what Abraham did or didn't do, along with Moses and perhaps even David and Solomon. Most archaeologists, hebrew scholars and historians along with Rabbis freely admit the evidence for their literal existence is slim to none. The "Law" was not from any Moses and was written up in the 7th century BCE by priests. There was no literal Exodus as portrayed and there are reasons why the story mentions many Pharoah's but gives no names. That would belie the real time frame of the story or they did not know the names as it was all made up. We might know who someone's grandmother is, but we never know which Pharoah is spoken of. THere are reasons for that.<br /><br />The only people for whom the windows of heaven are opened for are those who receive the tithes. <br /><br />Stay home from Church this weekend. Save 10% and more! <br /><br />:)<br /><br />DennisCDiehlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10417850852638492246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-79028339900177853932013-06-10T10:38:55.733-07:002013-06-10T10:38:55.733-07:00There goes the neighborhood.There goes the neighborhood.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-28589028894537367072013-06-10T10:33:37.488-07:002013-06-10T10:33:37.488-07:00But of course, the falsely indoctrinated will spea...But of course, the falsely indoctrinated will speak of how wonderful it is to "tithe" !<br /><br />Maybe even some "miracle stories" like various folks who are adherents of different religions tell.<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
