    Tithing Does this apply to believers today?

    I agree 100%. They want us to use our names so that at the end of the year you can get a tax right off but im not interested in saving money if I am giving money, defeats its special purpose, so cash it is straight in the bucket if I can. Being an usher no one knows if im giving anyway, i like...

    Tithing Does this apply to believers today?

    It matters I suppose if they depend on a figure but they don't expect it. They teach that God will somehow bless you financially in return but I honestly don't care about divine gambling lol no offense to anyone who believes that, I personally do what I can to be a good steward of the church...

    Tithing Does this apply to believers today?

    I agree but I can also see why churches set up the 10 percent standard, there has to be some round about standard to go by IMO whether or not we willingly donate as much (like who is checking our pay stubs?) Sent from my LGLS755 using Tapatalk

    Justification

    We are all just struggling to get you to understand that transformation is a real thing but the way you come across is that it goes against scripture somehow. No one here is working for righteousness or for justification, works are given to us from God who has already ordained it so and has...

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 5

    There isn't any swelling just soreness. Thanks [emoji8], I think im going to stay in today and watch sermons online, although it will be last weeks sermon but if I move around too much it starts throbbing and I don't want to push out the blood clot and get dry socket...

    Justification

    Its called stepping out of your flesh and living in spirit, we do this in worship although you find all churches pagan I dont suspect you have ever experienced it. You may not believe but people do change in their walk with God, I was that thief and when the Holy Ghost hit me I was afraid to...

    Justification

    I can agree with this. God manifested himself to me long before I repented, why would I repent before an unknown God had he not justified me in the first place?

    Tithing Does this apply to believers today?

    My income is not fixed, it sways throughout the seasons and I also pay back school loans monthly and will for another 8 years. Official envelope tithes I have done a few, but I always try to toss in cash into the offerings whether it be 5 10 or 20 dollars. I need a better paying job for sure...

    Justification

    I agree with you there. I was saved by divine intervention and like Paul I knew it was Christ and not Shiva or Buddha... Paul was a Jew so he like all the other apostles and even Jesus knew the OT, the difference being that I have the NT covenant along with the OT to direct me as to what God I...

    Just saved a ton of money by switching to Geico ;) Jk My right side of my face is sore because of the two extractions. They said I could get partials so I can chew my food... at least I have all of my bottom teeth and all my front upper teeth so I can keep my smile :) But as for chewing, my...

    Tithing Does this apply to believers today?

    Our pastor lives comfortably I suppose. He is usually at the church but gives his sermons wed nights and twice on sunday, not that it matters. They ask for 10% but many pay much more and others none at all or less than 10%. The great thing about the Pentecostal church I attend is that its...

    Tithing Does this apply to believers today?

    I believe its necessary to tithe for AC in Texas churches, also how can a preacher preach full time without tithing? It goes to God IMO but I don't think he wants us to break our banks either, I actually can't afford it now but I have paid a tithe or two before lol I would if I could Sent...

    Saul was saved by divine intervention, he was also called to be an apostle. The gospel was to be spread to the ends of the earth. All I am saying is that without the gospel how could you possibly come to know God or even Jesus for that matter? I mean really Patrick! Sent from my LGLS755 using...

    Not salvation works also I was talking about reading the scripture, I don't see how anyone could be saved without reading the scripture. "Let those who have ears to hear listen to what the spirit is saying" The last line in my post is really my summery of the whole post. Charity is given to...
