Subject: Tithing before Mosaic Law |
Bible Note: Dear Sister Azure, Amen and amen. I just came from the wood behind the soup kitchen were I work, and the thing I love about some of those people (homeless drunkards) is that they get that; they know that they have no hope but that is in Christ, and what they do have is from Him, even though it isn't very much. Many of them are saved, but only as if by fire. My prayer and my goal for them is to remind, and perchance, convince them that they are grieving the Holy Spirit. And my goal for the others is to give out the word so the Spirit of God will convict their heart. Much prayer is needed. Sorry for getting off track here, and for not keeping to the subject at hand. Seems a bit far off tithing. :-) John |
