Bible Question:
Hi, Blessed be our Father of our Lord Jesus Christ and Greeting to all saints. My question is about tithes.I pay tithes on my income from work. What I want to know is do i pay tithes on borrowed money as I will be borrowing/loan money from my bank. I believe I have to pay tithes of this even if im going to be paying it back with interest. I have been battling with this and its left me confused and personally I believe you have to tithe of all profit or loan regards, gab regards, gab |
Bible Answer: Hi Brethrens, All Glory, Power, Might and Majesty belong only to our LORD and Master Jesus Christ for He is such a Good and Divine GOD. Plentiful in mercies and sacrificed Himself for the gift of grace which none of us deserve but the WORD says for GOD so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son whom He loved so much. Greetings to all the brethrens and saint that believe that our Master Jesus Christ is the one and only true GOD and KING and LORD of all. I thank GOD for His wonderful Holy Spirit that directs us in the right and just path and constantly reminds us that Jesus Christ the everlasting KING of kings and LORD of lords is risen and lives for ever more. When I posted this message I wasn’t sure what to do and wanted some wisdom but now I truly know why the Holy Spirit chose for me to go through this path so as to let our LORD and Master Jesus Christ get all the glory and be worshipped. Giving the offering out of my loan or borrowed money is one of the best things I ever did in my life. I thank the Holy Spirit for enabling me to listen to Christian24 that all and all belongs to the LORD GOD Jesus Christ whether borrowed or not. The Bible says in psalm 24 'The earth is the LORD', and the fullness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.’ Christian24 I thank GOD for giving me the grace to listen to you so I can share me testimony. When I gave the offering no sooner did I give that the LORD almighty provided me with a wonderful job? Just to explain I had a very good paid job before but was going through a lot of politics at that work place that was weighing me down and I had been seeking GOD to deliver me from the oppression I was facing from the devil through colleagues. You can imagine how down and the state of mind I was in. My finances were so mis-managed because of the issue I had at this work place that I was in a lot, lot of debt. Hence why I borrowed quite a large amount of money). The bank gave me this money because they knew I had a very well paid job. They try and trap you even the more. The devil is a liar because Jesus knows how to deliver His own. I didn’t know this at the time. Now you can imagine that the last thing I probably wanted to do was to give to GOD but again I thank Jesus Christ for is grace which he gave that made me realise even when you go through persecutions, problems and when we are at our lowest we should still obey the Word of our LORD. I knew I had to give despite my surroundings. GOD enabled me to be able to give before so why shouldn’t I now despite my circumstances Apostle Paul said that count it all Joy because our Father in heaven knows and sees everything. He knows our pains, He knows our joys, He knows our anxieties, He knows everything because He has been through it all Himself while on this earth that He formed with is own hands. Cut the long story short our LORD Jesus Christ when He repaid me back provided me with a job that is a little under from a six figure salary. Not only did Jesus Christ give me the salary beyond my expectations but He also gave me the job, which was exactly what I’d always wanted to do as a next step in my career, and He also put me around colleagues that are helpers to me. I was not even qualified for this job and had applied to this job more than 3 times before. Not only did Jesus now give me the job but I was give the job with the highest pay intended.
