Tithing

[tango]

Perspective.
Well if you are the Temple?

I believe the clearer view would be.
body, soul, spirit.

... are you going to say anything tangible about tithing?

 

[Lamb]

The parable of the talents is not about stewardship/tithes but God's Kingdom. Giving tons of money to the church isn't going to buy ourselves anything good for heaven.

I agree but preople will ber judged for their heart and how they meet the needs of those they are around, supporting the church and the ministry.

Things to come

…12And they heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, "Come up here." Then they went up into heaven in the cloud, and their enemies watched them. 13And in that hour there was a great earthquake, and a tenth of the city fell; seven thousand people were killed in the earthquake, and the rest were terrified and gave glory to the God of heaven. 14The second woe is past; behold, the third woe is coming quickly.

Please, your own words about what you believe instead of these verses that may or may not show something.

... and how is this relevant to how much of our income we give to the church?

I can do a search in e-sword for the worth "tenth" just as easily as you can. The bit that's missing (as seems to be the norm) is some words to indicate how a verse apparently plucked at random is relevant to the topic at hand. Since you don't provide that it's hard to conclude anything other than that it isn't relevant at all.

The subject at hand is Tithe. And as I stated before its not random. I am trying to show the pattern.

I'll explain further in detail later. I can show scripture to help. But some will not hear or see. Even if I try to xplain in detail.

Forgive me, I threw my pearls to swine in the past and paid a painful price.

Even if you try to explain in detail? Are you serious? As far as I can see you haven't tried to explain anything in this thread, detail or otherwise. You've posted a lot of things that may or may not be relevant, you haven't said anything as to how (or even whether) they might be relevant, and now come out with "some will not hear or see"?

If you want people to see your point you could always try actually making one.

Does a double portion ring a bell?

 

[tango]

Does a double portion ring a bell?

Yes. I had a second donut today. Is that the kind of double portion you meant?

 

[pinacled]

Yes. I had a second donut today. Is that the kind of double portion you meant?

Very well then. Watch out for bears.

 

[psalms 91]

Does a double portion ring a bell?

If I remember right does not the double portion have more to do with keeping the Sabbeth than it does the tithe?

 

[tango]

Very well then. Watch out for bears.

They need to watch out for me during hunting season.

 

[pinacled]

If I remember right does not the double portion have more to do with keeping the Sabbeth than it does the tithe?

Yes. And likewise the Shemitah. There are some secrets that are not allowed to be uttered.
Though their are 2 churches that hold significant beauty.

 

[tango]

So 0.2 churches get given back? Which part gets given back, the beautiful part in full or part beauty and part ugly?

 

[pinacled]

They need to watch out for me during hunting season.

Brother,
I beg of you please forgive me.

I have deceived you and our father. I took your place with a hairy mantle. Long ago a blessing was given.

Please will you lead on ahead with your company.
I will stay behind.

I am unworthy of my own brother.

Yet I cant help this heart of mine. It sees him and it is in the midst of travail to see his Son.

Not sure why forgiveness is required, I was just wondering what you think about tithing. You haven't done me any wrong.

The 7 Churches.
Oh so many to Live on through.

Do not let the Right Hand know what the left hand is doing.

You and I know full well the deeper meaning of this. As the Virgins with Oil walk on guiding the other with their own vessels.
Many have been afraid to come out of bondage and purchase the oil.

Marriage is something of fear to those that are wild. Though unnatural is still always the next generation. And the ones with oil are responsible with the inheritance. Just as Our Fathers passed down the Holy Spirit in Word and Tradition .We are just in carrying on the dreams to our Children.

This is what I personally love about winter. A time to sit around the eternal fire and think on things to come.

Germination of the seed.

You should write a book. You could title it "The thoughts of pinacled on all things except tithing"

 

[Lamb]

Do not let the Right Hand know what the left hand is doing.

Are you saying you don't want to talk about tithing because you think the bible is saying not to talk about it because of that verse?
