1181 | Releases from tithing 10 per cent? | 2 Cor 9:7 | jlpangilinan | 22154 | ||
Charis, I would like share with you some of our doctrine in our church. It was the head of our church who discourage us not to give tithe but love offering. He is the one taught us that tithe is no longer the requirements of giving. Our head of the church set as the a live example to us. He built a convention center for our church worth more than 20 million dollars in equivalent. He source the found from his own pocket considering that this convention center registered as the property of the church. When the time come that he can no longer sustain the funds because its too big for him, he asked help from us if how much we can help him because he has no money to finish the building. We contribute not all of us with no required amount. Some of us gave big and some other not give at all because they cannot afford, but it is okay. Now we have that convention center. It is the head of our church who taught us not to give tithe but love offering. It is not me or any member of our church who are not willing to gave. I am not saying that you mentioned that I am the one who dont want to give, Just explain in my own case. If you want me to try explain that believed in this forum, I will try to do so with a passages supporting to it. Thank you Johnny |

Prayon, Me the same as you mention, I am also a tithe giver, we observe that. Even my parents I've ask them to give tithe correctly because It was taught to us of our pastor. They always use Mal 3:10 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. I am not saying that this verse is wrong it is truly right. But of course we have to consider time and event when we are reading the scriptures. As all we know it was address to the decendants of Jacob if you read Mal. 3:6 Mal 3:6 For I am the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed. But when Jesus Christ crusified we free from all this things. 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. As you mentioned you always been taught to give 10 percent of your earnings, but try those points that I mentioned to you. Maybe you can ask those to your pastors, then if you got a valid answer from him please share it to me. I am open to my believed prayon, if someone can explain to me that tithe is really the requirement so we can go to heaven I will accept that teaching again. Thank you, Johnny |

1183 | Where is the line? | 2 Cor 9:7 | jlpangilinan | 22139 | ||
Prayon, Do you mean we are not release from the law of Moses? I think it is not right when you mentioned we were released. Becuase until now of course when you observed the two great commandments whic is given by Jesus Christ you also observed all things in the ten commandments. But my question to you now is, do you really observed them as Jew people doing it, or you observing it like what Jesus Christ taught us? Questions: 1. Do you not do any work on sabbath day? 2. Do you really not eat pork and other meat or food that Jewish people not eat.? 3. If you see other people do work on sabbath day did you kill them or stoned them to death? Because according to law do any work on sabbath day, is punishable by death. If your answer is no! then you have been free from the law of moses which is include tithe. Just show me my friend, that tithe is not included in the law of Moses and we will agree. Jesus Christ observed the ten commandments different from the teaching of Moses,Jesus Christ do a lot of work on Sabbath day. and it punisable by death. Lu 4:31 And came down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee, and taught them on the sabbath days. Lu 6:1 And it came to pass on the second sabbath after the first, that he went through the corn fields; and his disciples plucked the ears of corn, and did eat, rubbing them in their hands. Lu 6:2 And certain of the Pharisees said unto them, Why do ye that which is not lawful to do on the sabbath days? When Jesus Christ do this things He free us from that law. Or you will say that Jesus Christ not observe the law? In addition my friend, (I hope we belong to same belived which is Christianity, I could be mistaken if one of us will belong to Jewish)i will put some passages here. Heb 8:7 For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second. Heb 8:8 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: 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. It was mentioned there on that passages The lord make a new covenant "Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers" do you think tithe or ten commandment are not included in that first covenant? If your answer is NO! then show me that they exclude tithe and ten commandments when they mentioned that. I hope I will not offended you in my kind of questions Thanks Johnny |

Prayon, Let me again use this verse to explain my stand. 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. When this teaching received by paul in Jesus Christ it is the passage that will free us from that law. Do you agree that tithe is including in the law of moses? it is mentioned there that we are not justified by the law of moses. As christians we are now observe the teaching of Jesus Christ, we also now eat the food that according to the teaching moses is not allowed for the Jew. My question to you now is why we exclude tithe from all those things? Do you think you can show me that when apostle paul say those passage he exclude the tithe? Ephesians 2:11-12 Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands; That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world: We also not observe the law called circumcision, why we are not observe those things which included in the law of moses, why we still observed the tithe which is included also in the same law? It is look we are not consistent? Luke 18:12-17 I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess. And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner. I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted. And they brought unto him also infants, that he would touch them: but when his disciples saw it, they rebuked them. But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God. Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child shall in no wise enter therein. In that verses its very clear that we are not going to be justified by the law of Moses if recall he tell Jesus that He followed carefully the commandments of Moses (ten commandments and others) but then the question Is he justified? If you can show me that tithe is excluded in the law of Moses and I will observe the tithe. But then if you observe one of those laws you must observe all the teaching included in that same laws. Matthew 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. Again I am not telling anyone that giving is wrong, if you can give more than your 10 percent it is acceptable to God, but it is not a requirement. It is not important how much you can give but the most important is how much you love to give because God love the cheerful giver. Thank you, Johnny |

1186 | 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 |

1187 | Tithing or grace giving/2 Cor. 8 and 9? | 2 Cor 9:7 | jlpangilinan | 21964 | ||
Your question: Is tithing a New Testament requirement for believers, or "grace giving" of 2 Corinthians chapters 8 and 9? My answer is it is not requirement. There is no teaching of Jesus Christ that will require anyone to give thier 10 percent. The tithe is including in the law of moses, and it will not Justified 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. But I am not telling here that giving is wrong, if you can give more than 10 percent of your income it accptable to God the wrong is we require our bother and sisters to give 10 percent of thier income. 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. It is not the requiremnts of how much you give but how much you love to give. Johnny |

1188 | 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 |

1189 | Was Jesus a captive? | 1 Pet 3:19 | jlpangilinan | 21948 | ||
Speakdtruth, I really like your answer to I think it was your question also. I have a friend whom belong to Jehovas Witnessess, and thier beleived that Jesus Christ Died both Body and Spirit. I would like to take this opportunity to raise this question for you and I am very greatful if you can explain my querry. First of all I would like to know if for you is the death of spirit of Jesus Christ, meaning no existence? My question are: If the spirit of Jesus Christ died how he can he preach in hell? 1Pe 3:18 ΒΆ For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit: 18. 1Pe 3:19 By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison; Also it was mentioned that God cast angels into hell: 2Pe 2:4 For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment; If Jesus Christ did not exist when He decended to hell? why the rich man exist. I dont think Jesus Christ will teach different from reality? Here in the next passages, in the parables of Jesus Christ when the rich man died he tormented in hell, meaning he exist there because he feel the fire of hell? Lu 16:22 And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried; 22. Lu 16:23 And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. 23. Lu 16:24 And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame. It is not a debate, I am also sometimes tormented to this kind of circumstances. speak the truth, Johnny |

1190 | are there innocent victims in the bible | Bible general Archive 1 | jlpangilinan | 21943 | ||
In the time that Satan challenge the faith of Job and God allows satan to do everything to Job except taking his life, I think the children of Job were innocent but they die. Maybe they are innocent victims becuase the challenge was involved Job. Job 1:18 While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, Thy sons and thy daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house: 18. Job 1:19 And, behold, there came a great wind from the wilderness, and smote the four corners of the house, and it fell upon the young men, and they are dead; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee. So sometimes God's allows innocent victims die. Sometimes we know the reasons, some we dont. Thanks, Johnny |

1191 | Record of the Amalekites? | OT general | jlpangilinan | 21851 | ||
Amalekite a tribe that dwelt in Arabia Petraea, between the Dead Sea and the Red Sea. They were not the descendants of Amalek, the son of Eliphaz, for they existed in the days of Abraham (Ge 14:7). They were probably a tribe that migrated from the shores of the Persian Gulf and settled in Arabia. "They dwelt in the land of the south...from Havilah until thou comest to Shur" (Nu 13:29; 1Sa 15:7). They were a pastoral, and hence a nomadic race. Their kings bore the hereditary name of Agag (Nu 24:7; 1Sa 15:8). They attempted to stop the Israelites when they marched through their territory (De 25:18), attacking them at Rephidim (Ex 17:8-13; comp. De 25:17; 1Sa 15:2). They afterwards attacked the Israelites at Hormah (Nu 14:45). We read of them subsequently as in league with the Moabites (Jg 3:13) and the Midianites (Jg 6:3). Saul finally desolated their territory and destroyed their power (1Sa 14:48; 15:3), and David recovered booty from them (1Sa 30:18-20). In the Babylonian inscriptions they are called Sute, in those of Egypt Sittiu, and the Amarna tablets include them under the general name of Khabbati, or "plunderers." Thanks Johnny |

This is the second time you did that to me radioman, what do you want? If are brave why you are hiding? you have no record profile. If you have problem why you just keep doing that? If you want to settle this any way just say it. As a muslim before I am not scared of anyone, I know the meaning of being brave. I was very happy when I try to learn Christianity it is define more love than wars, but I am surprise when a Christian like you having that kind of attitude. Johnny |

1195 | Commonwealth | Rom 1:18 | jlpangilinan | 21491 | ||
I am very clear in my question that "in our time" I hope you read it carefully read it before you post your answer it. This is your answer: to answer your questions... At our time what nation do you think God commanded to go to war and God will help this nation to defeat thier enemies. What nation is this? -Answer: There is prophecy in Daniel, Revelation and other books that Israel will eventually win with Christ as the Commander. Do you think revelation is our time? Re 19:14 And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. 14. Easton Re 19:15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. Re 19:16 And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS. 16. Re 19:17 And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, Come and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the great God; Re 19:18 That ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all men, both free and bond, both small and great. Re 19:19 And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army. Re 19:20 And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone. 20. Re 19:21 And the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh. If you refering to these passages in revelation, this war is diffirent from the wars today. It is against the enemies of God. You cannot justify yet who belongs to that kings mentioned. If you can show me that Jesus Christ commanded any man to go to war and he will blessed those person and gave thier enemy to his hand. -Answer: Saul was commanded to destroy the Amalekites (1 Sam 15:3) Here again you answered me too far from from my question, I am asking if Jesus Christ commanded any one to go war of harm anyone. You answer Saul was commanded to Destroy amalekites. It is in the Old testament my friend, are you sure it was Jesus Christ who commanded Saul? With all due respect, please read my question before you put any answer. You also ignore this passages: Lu 3:14 And the soldiers likewise demanded of him, saying, And what shall we do? And he said unto them, Do violence to no man, neither accuse any falsely; and be content with your wages. Before it is Israel who is really the Nation of God but we also now Isralites by adoption trough the blood of Christ Ro 9:4 Who are Israelites; to whom pertaineth the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service of God, and the promises; Eph 1:5 Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, 5. Easton Torrey Eph 1:6 To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved. 6. SME Easton Torrey Eph 1:7 In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace; BEFORE IT WAS ISRAEL ONLY THE GOD'S PEOPLE BUT NOW WE HAVE SHARE WITH THAT COMMONWEALTH OF ISRAEL. Eph 2:12 That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world: Eph 2:13 But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ. |

Kalos I dont know what do you mean here. Our discussion of Joe, is I am asking him if God is happy with these wars that going on. He answer me God indeed oschestrated wars in the old testament, my answer to him is if Jesus Christ orchestrated war in the new testament. I am asking Joe because of his statement that God commanded Israel to war, in our time now which nation is in God side. What nation now in our time received promises that the God give thier enemy in thier hands. Then, you here telling me the As Abraham Lincon motto or whatsoever.
