Subject: I won"t be saved if I don't tithe |
Bible Note: Hank, Good to hear you again my friend, Before I was a tithe giver, I was a member of certain church, (i dont want to metioned it here) the tught us that tithes is a requirements, and I as a first member in my family in that church, convinve my parents to give tithes 10 percent in what we have. We practice that for years and we have no problem with that. As a matter of fact I tried to depend that before that as a son of God I should tithe. Until i found this ministries I am in now, I am really amazed why this certain man always taught to his members that tithes is not a requirements but love offering. He is the one really find the resources to support the church. We are witness of how many properties he sold in order to build the National Convention that I mentioned to EdB. How many properties he sold in order to feed our unfortunate members, shouldering the burden on how to by medicine and other supplies for our free hospital. Inspite of those burden he discourage the tithes because it is not a teaching of Christ but love offering. He always taught to our members being a pastor is not a job for a living but a service to God and his people like paul that supported himself as a tent maker and did not make himself as any burden to his members. I always listen to him how to discourage tihes for the Christians. What I do now if somebody tell me that tithes is a requirements. Thanks for your note. God bless, Johnny |
