Bible Question:
Rextar, I dont know if you monitored how did this topic start. This answer I already posted to answer the question of Steve. I will put it here. Please read it carefully, you may get what I really would want to explain. You can see those question about tithing. You may also answer my posted questions here. "Why the Lord God not tell Peter "Here they are hear them"? ... Verse 8 says He was the only one of the three left. I dont think so. if you read Mark 9:6 For he wist not what to say; for they were sore afraid. "BEFORE PETER FINISH WHAT HE IS GOING TO SAY" Mark 9:8 And suddenly, when they had looked round about, they saw no man any more, save Jesus only with themselves. I we really understand that verses it mentioned in the very start of Mark 9: verse 8: "And suddenly" it means it was in the different instances of the time already. At Mark 9:6 it mentioned: "For he wist not what to say" at that time Peter telling Jesus Christ that he is going "make three tabernacles" one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias. In that particular time the vision of Moses and Elaijah was there. If in that particular time the vision left already did you think Peter is imprudent to mentioned to Jesus Christ that he is going to make tabernacles for three of them. I don’t now how careful you are by reading those verses ABOUT THE TEACHING OF MOSES THAT JESUS CHRIST DID NOT TEACH If I'm going to write here all the teaching of Moses that Jesus Christ did not teach, the database of this website "maybe" not enough to store those teaching. If we read all the books of MOSES too many teaching there that Jesus Christ did not teach? I will put here some: Deuteronomy 7:2 And when the LORD thy God shall deliver them before thee; thou shalt smite them, and utterly destroy them; thou shalt make no covenant with them, nor shew mercy unto them: Do you think Jesus would teach those kind of teaching? I DID NOT SAY IN MY QUESTION POSTED THAT MAT 23:23 SAY THAT WE SHOULD NOT TITHE? Please dont make your question verse by verse, please read my explanation DID YOU READ MY PREVIOUS EXPLANATION WHY THE TITHE IS NOT THE REQUIREMENTS? MY QUESTION THERE: IS THE TITHE INCLUDING IN THE LAW OF MOSES? Acts 13:39 And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the Law of Moses. Luke 16:16 The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into it. IS THE TITHING ALSO INCLUDING IN THE LAW OF PROPHETS or NOT? JESUS WILL MAKE A NEW COVENANT: FOR IF THAT FIRST COVENANT HAD BEEN FAULTLESS, THEN SHOULD NO PLACE HAVE BEEN SOUGHT FOR THE SECOND. Hebrews 8:7-9 For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second. For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah: Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord. DID TITHING ALSO INCLUDING IN THE FIRST COVENANT OR NOT? IF YOU CAN GIVE ME THE VERSES THAT TITHING IS NOT INCLUDING IN THE LAW OF MOSES PLEASE DO. In Christ, Johnny |
Bible Answer: Johnny- Tithing per se was not taught by Jesus. But He did commend the widow that gave to the temple her dinas (?) all that she had. He also never taught that the Sabbath should be kept. However, there are things that the old testament gives us that we can apply to our lives. When Abraham brought the tenth to Melchizedek (a type of Christ)it was setting an example. However, the recommendation of Jesus to the widow shows that we should give even more. My church believes the tithe is basic for a standard of giving. For myself, I believe the tithe is basic. It is the least I can give. Other denominations believe go with what your heart says. Jesus is the fulfillment of the law, His Blood was shed as the end to sacrifice and law. But that doesn't mean that we should thrwo out everything waht was taught in the Old Testament. The Sabath, too, was given to man, for God wanted a day to bless us and knew we needed to have that one day set aside to focus on Him and to have a change in our weekly lives for refreshing. So do we need to give, so we can be blessed. Debbie |
