SF, Stagecoach, NV

Dear Brothers & Sisters,
     You'll probably be glad to hear, this is the last Responsa to the question, should the New Covenant Children Tithe?

(This is what the enemy is teaching)

What Then Does God Require?

Matthew 22:15-22

1.     Matt 22:15-22  YES, render to Ceasar (government) what’s do him, and to God what’s do GOD.

I'm really tired of justifying God's Word.  This is a fact, I and many others have lived tithing and giving offerings since the Holy Spirit told us too.

I started out with 5% telling God, IF I met my bills that month, I would go to the 10%.  Needless to say, His Word is true!  My bills were met, and once I gave the 10%, I no longer lived check to check.  

Then I started giving offerings, different amounts of the extra I had.  And the Lord increased my giving offerings as of today to $424.00/month.  I gladly give it to His various ministries, but especially to anything concerning the Jews, widows, orphans, missionaries and other ministries I receive teaching from (like TV Evangelists).  

God truly does NOT need your money, but IF you are a Child of His, and are broke, busted and miserable -  I WOULD TELL YOU as others told me, TRY IT, YOU'LL LIKE IT!

This is just like any other battle you'll have in life - THE ENEMY wants you broke, busted and miserable,  Always REMEMBER, that the Lord came that we would have an ABUNDANDT LIFE!  "The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly.  John 10:10 NASB.  That’s why the thief (world, or satan = same thing) wants to keep you down, so you won't go to Lord, and receive what He wants you to have.  Yet through the Grace of God, the Word shows us it’s not His Will and through our obedience of gladly giving Him our Tithes and Offerings – You will have the abundance He wants you to have.

     Personally, the only battle I’ve ever heard before this one was; do I pay on the gross or net?  That can be answered in 2 ways.  1)  Do you want God in on your taxes?  And 2) what’s taken out of your check are bills you owe, usually the government taxes and various insurance fees.  For me, I answer yes on both and pay my tithes on the gross.

     Dear Family of God, this topic has driven me nuts, because I’m a teacher and I know the truth, for the Lord has showed me it, day after day, I’ve lived it and rejoice because of His Blessings He has given me.

 May the Lord bless you and your families in the abundance, as He wants you to live in.
