561 | Exodus and a God to fear | Mal 3:6 | jlpangilinan | 75077 | ||
Fear God means that you obey His Will or walked in His way. Ge 20:11 And Abraham said, Because I thought, Surely the fear of God is not in this place; and they will slay me for my wife's sake The people that not fear God are those wicked one's, for example me I fear God so I dont want to do harm in my nieghboor as I could. fear indeed is not just for God but for our parents. Le 19:3 Ye shall fear every man his mother, and his father, and keep my sabbaths: I am the LORD your God. So fear is not completely means scared, but respect. Maybe moses taught it that way because at the time it could be the way that thier mind can comprehend. If we remember almost all they need to do is specifically given to them i.e they have wash thier hands if they touch such dead animals. God did not change or change His mind: Mal 3:6 For I am the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed. He is really a loving God from everlasting. He is God that will love people that will obey His commandments and God that will not tolerate the wickedness of anyone. The application maybe different from Old Testament into a New Testament but it is the same God will punish the wicked ones forever and everlasting: Re 21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. God bless, |

562 | Does GOD change as centuries pass by. | Mal 3:6 | jlpangilinan | 162965 | ||
Mal 3:6 For I am the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed. Ps 102:26 They shall perish, but thou shalt endure: yea, all of them shall wax old like a garment; as a vesture shalt thou change them, and they shall be changed: Ps 102:27 But thou art the same, and thy years shall have no end. Gods the Father did not change, if we saw teaching like those in OT, it is not mean that God change, people change not God. When God gave those commandments in OT, it is mean that those commandments are suit for those people alive on those times. When God the Father sent His Begotten son it is not because he change, it is a part of a divine plan for salvation, and not because He change. As we all knew that prophecies about Christ was written in the old testament, even in the time of Moses. De 18:18 I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him. Also of Isa 9:6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. This is not because our God change, it is happen because God knows what is better for us. God bless, |

563 | Can we change God's Will? | Mal 3:6 | jlpangilinan | 162972 | ||
Ex 32:12 Wherefore should the Egyptians speak, and say, For mischief did he bring them out, to slay them in the mountains, and to consume them from the face of the earth? Turn from thy fierce wrath, and repent of this evil against thy people. Ex 32:13 Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, thy servants, to whom thou swarest by thine own self, and saidst unto them, I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven, and all this land that I have spoken of will I give unto your seed, and they shall inherit it for ever. Ex 32:14 And the LORD repented of the evil which he thought to do unto his people. Did moses prayer change the evil things that God though to do to his people? kindly explain those verse please. thanks |

564 | Can we change God's Will? | Mal 3:6 | jlpangilinan | 162973 | ||
Tim, this is not to oppose the answer given to you by kalos, but some things we can discuss on. Ex 32:12 Wherefore should the Egyptians speak, and say, For mischief did he bring them out, to slay them in the mountains, and to consume them from the face of the earth? Turn from thy fierce wrath, and repent of this evil against thy people. Ex 32:13 Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, thy servants, to whom thou swarest by thine own self, and saidst unto them, I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven, and all this land that I have spoken of will I give unto your seed, and they shall inherit it for ever. Ex 32:14 And the LORD repented of the evil which he thought to do unto his people. Because of moses prayer to the Lord, God repented of the evil things He tought to do to israel, what do you think. God bless, |

565 | Can we change God's Will? | Mal 3:6 | jlpangilinan | 163026 | ||
So what do you mean by that? is the prayer of moses mean nothing? when God repent of what he thought to do his people, is not because moses prayer, but because of what? I will put that verses again: Note: Ex 32:12 Wherefore should the Egyptians speak, and say, For mischief did he bring them out, to slay them in the mountains, and to consume them from the face of the earth? Turn from thy fierce wrath, and repent of this evil against thy people. Ex 32:13 Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, thy servants, to whom thou swarest by thine own self, and saidst unto them, I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven, and all this land that I have spoken of will I give unto your seed, and they shall inherit it for ever. Ex 32:14 And the LORD repented of the evil which he thought to do unto his people. If you can see those verse, moses explain and wrote that after his prayers God repented of the evil he thought to do to his people. If we are going to accept your arguement on thoses verses you quoted, are you saying that the prayer of moses is mean nothing to God? Moses wrote different, I think. God bless, Is the prayer of moses mean nothing to God? |

566 | Can we change God's Will? | Mal 3:6 | jlpangilinan | 163027 | ||
lets takes away the translation, lets discuss on what happened on that time, that after the prayer of moses, God repented of what he tought to do to israel. If we ignore that the prayer of moses did not mean nothing, then poor moses that in his writing I think he assume that his prayer done something to his people israelites. God bless, |

Are you saying also that, bringing flood is God will? Meaning that even before the foundation of the earth it really God's will to bring flood to the time of Noah? If the flood in the time of noah is gods will, why He is angry to the fullfiment of his will? It God will, when Adam and eve fell to temtation? when adam and fell, why God angry and even curse them, if it is the fulfillment of his will? |

Nolan, I really like your explaination to Spoken Power! Just to say hi! Its been a long time before I saw you again in the forum. God Bless, Johnny |

570 | Is it God's will to tithe in pres. time? | Mal 3:8 | jlpangilinan | 22463 | ||
Spoken Power, I read the note of Nolan to you and it was very good. My question to you is: In your church, what is tithe? it is the 10 percent of your income (net/gross)? or a simple love offering? If the tithe in your church is the 10 percent of your income, it is different from the teaching of Jesus Christ. Ac 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. Tithe is a very part of the law of Moses, and cannot Justified us. Ga 2:16 Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified. I am not saying that giving is wrong, if you can give more than 10 percent to God it is acceptable to Him. God love a cheerful giver. Co 9:7 Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver. Giving, we know it is not directly to God, we all know that He doesnt need money. But by giving we help the word of God to teach in every part of the world as fast as possible, and not to help pastors to become rich much quicker. God bless, Johnny |

571 | Do we tithe on our net or gross? | Mal 3:8 | jlpangilinan | 22464 | ||
Applessed, You dont have to pay tithe base on your net or gross, it is based on what how much you love to give. If you heard of a teaching that, you should give 10 percent of your income (net or gross) it different from the teaching of Jesus Christ. Tithe is a requirement and a very important part of Jewish religion: The first Mosaic law on this subject is recorded in Le 27:30-32. Subsequent legislation regulated the destination of the tithes (Nu 18:21-24,26-28; De 12:5-6,11,17; 14:22-23). The paying of the tithes was an important part of the Jewish religious worship. In the days of Hezekiah one of the first results of the reformation of religion was the eagerness with which the people brought in their tithes (2Ch 31:5-6). The neglect of this duty was sternly rebuked by the prophets (Am 4:4; Mal 3:8-10). But in the time of Jesus Christ he gave us another guideline how to give. it more love justice and charity: 2Co 9:7 Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver. Tithe is included in the law of Moses, and law cannot justify us: Ac 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. Ga 2:16 Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified. Guideline of giving for the Christian is base on the porpose of the heart. If you can give more that 10 percent or 20 of your income it acceptable to God but there is no required amount. God love cheerful giver. God bless, Johnny |

572 | Do we tithe on our net or gross? | Mal 3:8 | jlpangilinan | 22589 | ||
Applessed, I know that abraham gave his tithe. Additional input. But where he got the things that mentioned there Ge 14:17 ¶ And the king of Sodom went out to meet him after his return from the slaughter of Chedorlaomer, and of the kings that were with him, at the valley of Shaveh, which is the king's dale. 17. Ge 14:18 And Melchizedek king of Salem brought forth bread and wine: and he was the priest of the most high God. Ge 14:19 And he blessed him, and said, Blessed be Abram of the most high God, possessor of heaven and earth: Ge 14:20 And blessed be the most high God, which hath delivered thine enemies into thy hand. And he gave him tithes of all. If you read it from Ge 14:17, Abraham slaughter Kings, and took thier goods and gave the tithe of all. Do you think Jesus Christ will tolerate us if we practice that kind of giving at this time. Do you think Jesus Christ will tolerate us if we going to slauther somebody bad or good people and take them goods and gave tithe of all. Sometimes some pastors when the taught tithes gave that passages focus just on that verse, they dont try to read it from verse 17. Just a clarification. God bless, Johnny |

It sounds you came from a long mission. If I am correct praise the Lord! I know you did the good of Christ in many souls. I read many possitive post about you they are right! your explaination is not just about the content but formation from it.

574 | Do we tithe on our net or gross? | Mal 3:8 | jlpangilinan | 22617 | ||
I am not mentioned that tithe is wrong in the Old Testament. They required to give, it is a very important part of Jewish religion: TITHE he first Mosaic law on this subject is recorded in Le 27:30-32. Subsequent legislation regulated the destination of the tithes (Nu 18:21-24,26-28; De 12:5-6,11,17; 14:22-23). The paying of the tithes was an important part of the Jewish religious worship. In the days of Hezekiah one of the first results of the reformation of religion was the eagerness with which the people brought in their tithes (2Ch 31:5-6). The neglect of this duty was sternly rebuked by the prophets (Am 4:4; Mal 3:8-10). Tithe is included in the law of Moses, and the law cannot justify us. Ac 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. Why keep doing the things that cannot justify us? If really want to observe one part of the law you must observed it at all. We have to be consistent, We are ready to exclude the law of moses, why not the tithe. We are not observing the law of circumscision, kiliing of animals for our sins, why we occurse those things except tithe? My challenge to you now is can you show me if Jesus Christ include tithes in His teaching. Show me if Jesus required His desciple to give thier titges to Him. Or He made himself an example of doing so. If the tithe or (ten percent of income) is important, I am sure that Jesus Christ will require Himself to do it. We know that baptism is important, it is include in Christ teaching. Just to show us that it is important He required himself, He asked John to baptize Him. Guidelines of giving that taught for the Christians is goes Love, Grace, and Charity. 2Co 9:7 Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver. There is no required amount, it is not mentioned of how much you can give, but of how much you love to give. If you heart allows you to give more 10 or 20 percent to the church it is acceptable to God. God love a cheerful giver. But there is no required amount, it never mentioned that it should be 10 percent of your income or whatsoever. Just to show some example: t 23:23 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.3 Scribes are very strick in collecting tithe, but Jesus Christ tell to them? Another example: Mr 12:42 And there came a certain poor widow, and she threw in two mites, which make a farthing. 42. Mr 12:43 And he called unto him his disciples, and saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That this poor widow hath cast more in, than all they which have cast into the treasury: This is a very clear example of love offering. She gave everything porposes of her heart, but there is no required amount. Now, if can show me that Jesus Christ taught to any person and require them to give it to Him, I would agree that tithing is right guidelines of giving for us Christians. God bless, Johnny |

575 | Do we tithe on our net or gross? | Mal 3:8 | jlpangilinan | 22800 | ||
I dont think so. Jesus did not mentioned that he required everyone to give 10 percent, but the purposes of the heart. The verse that you quoted is really strict to the scribes because we know that time they very strick on the tihting and leave other most important teaching of God which included in the two great commandments. To give some example: Mt 5:17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. Jesus Christ mentioned that "He come not to destroy the law but to fulfil it" If for Jesus Christ really fulfilling the law is Just simply observing thithes and sabath and other things the included in the law of Moses why He not submit himself of doing it. He never pay tithe to anyone nor He reuired His desciples to give tithe to Him. He is God He got all the reason to collect the tithe right? The reasons of the Pastors today of collecting tithes because it is for God. My question is why Jesus Christ didntdo it. Baptism is a important things, would you agree? Jesus Christ would like us to emphasise how important it is. What did He do He required himself to be baptize to set an example to us, He asked John to baptized Him, He made Himself an example. My question to you now is if tithe really important guidelines or whatsoever, why Jesus Christ not required Himself to do what He like to do of His people. Tithe is included in the Law of Moses or even before the law given to Moses. Ac 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. Please show me that tithe is not included in the law of moses and I would agree. It mentioned there in that passages that, Law of Moses "cannot Justified us" Why keep doing the things that cannot Justified us? If we are really want to observe one of the laws, why only the tithes we must observe all part of the law so we are consistent. Let me use your quoted verses for me: Lu 11:42 But woe unto you, Pharisees! for ye tithe mint and rue and all manner of herbs, and pass over judgment and the love of God: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone. If you read it carefully we have to be consistent of doing every part of the law, and not to leave other undone. If you just observe the tithe and not other laws it is the same that you leave other undone. Why we keep observing the tithe if we cannot observe laws like circumscision, killing animals for our sin, observing sabbath carefully stoned people to death if they do anything in sabbath, why we are not consistent? We have a new guideline of giving, and there is no required amount, but what is purposes of the heart. Just answers all my questions, and I would agree. God bless, Johnny |

576 | Tithes | Mal 3:8 | jlpangilinan | 125135 | ||
If you reffering to the 10 percent of your income, NO! 2Co 9:7 Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver. Apostle paul said, "every man give according to the purpose of his heart" meaning no percentages, if put a percentage in giving it is not anymore a purpose, but a law! This topic, has been discussed many times in this forum, but once again let me share with you what Christ said about it: Mt 23:23 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. in the passages above Christ stated that those who observe the law must observe everything included in the law otherwise they are called hypocryte!. In that verse also we see that scribes are strict in imposing the law in tithe and not the most important. Now if you observe the tithe, which is part of the law, you must observe other things which is included in the law i.e stone to death our brother in sister if we caught them go out in the day of sabbath! The doctor should not go out and attend to their patient in the day of sabbath! are doing that? NO. Do we really need to pay tithe which is included in the law? NO! Ac 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. Are the tithes inluded in the law of moses? YES! TITHE The first Mosaic law on this subject is recorded in Le 27:30-32. Subsequent legislation regulated the destination of the tithes (Nu 18:21-24,26-28; De 12:5-6,11,17; 14:22-23). The paying of the tithes was an important part of the Jewish religious worship. Is the tihe is for Christian? NO! De 5:3 The LORD made not this covenant with our fathers, but with us, even us, who are all of us here alive this day. It was given specifically to them, not for us. If that covenant are excluded thier fathers how about Christians. I am not saying that giving is wrong, but it should be NO dictated amount or percentage otherwise it will fall under LAW. IF you can give 20 percent or half of your salary it is acceptable to God, but in your own purpose not somebody will impose to collect a percentages! Think about it, read more, God bless, |

577 | How does God say that we rob him? | Mal 3:9 | jlpangilinan | 52286 | ||
Mal 3:9 Ye are cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed me, even this whole nation. Mal 3:10 Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it. In malachi God said that the Isreal rob Him by not giving thier tithe. In the old testament the law required israel to give thier tithe to the temple. It start at the time of Moses they required israel to give thier tithe to the Levites. But in the new testament, there is no teaching of Christ that will required us to give the ten percent of our income. Ac 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. Tithe is including in the law of moses and it is not justified us. 2Co 9:7 Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver. we know that the new way of giving is this, no required amount and we call that love offering. But if you want to give more it is acceptable to God but no required amount ten or 20 percent is not a requirement. God bless, Johnny |

578 | How does God say that we rob him? | Mal 3:9 | jlpangilinan | 52459 | ||
Can you please prove to me that the ten percent is teaching of Christ. Ten percent is including in the law of moses and it cannot justified us. Show me the verse in the scripture that we are not release in the law of moses. Ac 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. or you can prove to me that ten percent is not including in the law of moses. please show me the verse. God bless, Johnny |

579 | Does not tithing disqualify leadership? | Mal 3:10 | jlpangilinan | 21954 | ||
My interest to your question is different. 1. What the meaning of tithe for you is the 10 percent of your gross, or a love offering that mentioned in the bible? 2. Do you believed that it is appropriate to give tithe than love offering? I raise this question to you because I think it is wrong that we required our brother and sisters to give tithe. I think the right giving is love offering and it was taught in the new testament. We know that there is no any teaching of Jesus Christ in the new Testament that will required anyone to gave 10 percent of his gross or whatsover. We know also that most of his teaching is love and charity. But I am not saying that the giving is wrong, if you can give more that 10 percent it is acceptable to God, but it will not require you how much you can give but how much you love to give. 2Co 9:7 Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver Thanks, Johnny |

580 | Does not tithing disqualify leadership? | Mal 3:10 | jlpangilinan | 22133 | ||
Thank you, In addition if we really observe the tithe which is included in the law of moses why we are not observe the other laws. We have to be consistent. Heb 8:9 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. We have a new covenant. Thanks for your note. Johnny |
