Greetings in The Mighty Name of Jesus, The Christ!!!
Tithing, Giving
Matthew 23:23 KJV –
"Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier [matters] of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone."
Woe to You Pastors who Fleece The Flock to Your Own Undoing!!! For you have Abused The Tithe, making yourselves to Stand Upon Pillars, making yourself fat!!! To You, who do such things, I Rebuke You In The Name Of Jesus!!!
For in the Beginning the Tithe went to the Levit’s, The Priest as Their Inheritance, for they did not go and Till The Ground nor did they Raise Any Herds of their own, nor did they Own any Land. A part of The Tithe was to them and Part Belonged to God. The Levits took care of Temple Needs all of their Lives and took care of all of the Sin Offerings that were brough in daily. They were the Middleman between Man and The Father!!!
Today, this is Not Needed as it once was, for Jesus is now Our Middleman, between Us and The Father! So then, in The New Testament the Tithe was not Re-established, was Not Re-Newed. The Tithe Today needs to be Accounted For, that is, Where is it being Used and the Purpose of Use.
In Today’s church, the Pastor receives a Salary, which is Voted on by a Board, then brought to the people, to be Voted on once again. Now I want you to Think about this. The people who Clean The church, do not Receive anything, unless you are using a Cleaning Service and in that I Reprove Your Actions!!! You the Body should be taking care of that, Your Pastor is not, but maybe a little!!! A Pastor should not make more then the Middle Income of All Who Attend, If, the Body can Tithe to that amount!!!
So, to continue, part of Your Tithe goes to Utilities which it should. The rest of Your Tithe should go to The Bodies Needs. There should be No One In The Body that has Need of Housing, Food, Clothing and a way to get from One Point to Another Point. Which means that The Pastor and his Elders or Deacons need to do their Due diligence to see to the Needs Of The Body!!! We see How The Body should be in Acts…
Acts 4:32-35 KJV
"32 And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul: neither said any [of them] that ought of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common. 33 And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all. 34 Neither was there any among them that lacked: for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold, 35 And laid [them] down at the apostles' feet: and distribution was made unto every man according as he had need."
For I set an Example before you, I, being an Apostle, which according to Jesus and By Jesus, hold more to My Account than a Pastor and I Receive Nothing from The Body, but yet I Minister every week. I Pray for The Body that Jesus has set before me and I Give where I am led. But all that I am or have belongs to Jesus to do with As He Wills! The Job that Jesus has given me, I am able to Minister throughout the day as the need arises. So, then, if Jesus is going to Hold Me More Accountable then a Pastor, Why am I Not Rich?
The church and The Church, see to Other Needs Out Side The Body, before they see to the Needs Of The Body In The Church. You have such programs that See to a Fraction, the needs of the poor in Your Community, before The Body. Now there are Few Times that The Holy Spirit will lead to give Outside The Body, but that is because of Jesus doing!!! You have Clothing Drives, but there are those in The Body who need it more. You give Money to some Evangelist in another country who you did not send from Your Body, before giving to those within The Body who Need it more!!!
I have people begging for Money all of the time, that are liars and cheats, who I ignore, but yet, you have the same thing going on within your church that You Up Hold! The Lord set in me about Tithing to Know where the Money was going to and when I started doing that, I found that the Majority was going where it Should Not Go! The Church has been Fooled, Manipulated, Lied To by False Doctrine of Men and Satan, to the Use Of God’s Money!!! I would think about Your Tithe and Where it is going…
Now to Giving. Many of you Give to a Building Fund, Why? Is the Building or Place that Jesus has Provided Not good enough for you? If you are at the Point that you are Crowed, then Seek Jesus for an Answer and let it be Agreed upon by more then One Walking In The Spirit, but, let it Not Extend to Greed!!! I have seen many churches that did Building Funds, get the Building that their Flesh Desired to see, and it become vacant or with it only half full. Now you are Stuck with a Monthly Bill regardless!
What about Giving to a Fund to send Kids to Camp, to Learn and have Fun mostly, Why are they Not being Taught by the Elders in The Body, the Needs of Living? It is Not the Job of The Church to see that the Kids are having Fun, but let them Learn The Joy Of The Lord, From Within The Body!!! Some of you have Plenty and should Share with the Body, but instead Hoard it to Your Selves to consume it to Your Own Flesh!!!
Some of you Give to Organizations and never Look or even Understand Where Your Money is going to. There are some Organizations that Appear to be Good, but on the Hidden side, give to Evil. You say that you Specify Where Your Money goes, well, here is a Truth that You have not figured. If you give a Dollar to Feed The Poor, once that Dollar is Given Where does it go? It goes into One Bank Account and that One Account goes for to Many little Projects, some considered Good some to be considered Evil, Where did Your Dollar Go Exactly? Did it Not go to One Account?
Think of this example, let’s say you are in line at a Grocery Store and you feel led by The Holy Spirit to pay for the Groceries in the person in front or back of you. You give the Casher Your Money and they turn and gave that Money to someone else who wanted Alcohol would that Not Offend You? The point is, you Give and Expect, but What You Gave, does not necessarily go to What You Gave It For, because All Money given for Good or Evil all end up in One Account that you have No Control Over!!! This is just like Giving in a church, it all goes into One Account that You do not have Full Control Over!
This message is to get You, The Body Of Christ, The Church, to Think about Where Your Money is really going and unless You Make Sure, then you really do not have any idea, you Just Assume!!! God Gives us Blessings, not to be Hoarded, but to See to The Bodies Needs as they arise. Do not be foolish, be Prudent!!!
Matthew 25:14-28 KJV
"14 For [the kingdom of heaven is] as a man travelling into a far country, [who] called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods. 15 And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey. 16 Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made [them] other five talents. 17 And likewise he that [had received] two, he also gained other two. 18 But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his lord's money. 19 After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them. 20 And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have gained beside them five talents more. 21 His lord said unto him, Well done, [thou] good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. 22 He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside them. 23 His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. 24 Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed: 25 And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, [there] thou hast [that is] thine. 26 His lord answered and said unto him, [Thou] wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed: 27 Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and [then] at my coming I should have received mine own with usury. 28 Take therefore the talent from him, and give [it] unto him which hath ten talents."
Amen and Amen!!!
