      From: theadvancedmarketinggroup@gmail.com              Part Two...              >>> List of scriptures showing the use of money in the Old and New Testaments       (NOTE CLOSELY; MONEY IS NEVER MENTIONED AS BEING USED TO PAY A TITHE...NOT       EVEN ONCE)...               Genesis 23;12-16 "But Abraham bowed before the Hittites 13 and said to Ephron,       so that everyone could hear, “May I ask you, please, to listen. I will buy       the whole field. Accept my payment, and I will bury my wife there.” Ephron       answered, “Sir,        land worth only four hundred pieces of silver—what is that between us? Bury       your wife in it.” 16 Abraham agreed and weighed out the amount that Ephron       had mentioned in the hearing of the people—four hundred pieces of silver,       according to the        standard weights used by the merchants."               Exodus 38:28 "And of the thousand seven hundred seventy and five shekels he       made hooks for the pillars, and overlaid their chapiters, and filleted them.'               Exodus 38:29 "And the brass of the offering was seventy talents, and two       thousand and four hundred shekels."               Leviticus 5:15 "If a soul commit a trespass, and sin through ignorance, in the       holy things of the LORD; then he shall bring for his trespass unto the LORD a       ram without blemish out of the flocks, with thy estimation by shekels of       silver, after the shekel        of the sanctuary, for a trespass offering:'               Leviticus 27:3 "And thy estimation shall be of the male from twenty years old       even unto sixty years old, even thy estimation shall be fifty shekels of       silver, after the shekel of the sanctuary.               Leviticus 27:4 "And if it be a female, then thy estimation shall be thirty       shekels.'               Leviticus 27:5 "And if it be from five years old even unto twenty years old,       then thy estimation shall be of the male twenty shekels, and for the female       ten shekels.'               Leviticus 27:6 "And if it be from a month old even unto five years old, then       thy estimation shall be of the male five shekels of silver, and for the female       thy estimation shall be three shekels of silver."               Leviticus 27:7 "And if it be from sixty years old and above; if it be a male,       then thy estimation shall be fifteen shekels, and for the female ten shekels.'               Leviticus 27:16 "And if a man shall sanctify unto the LORD some part of a       field of his possession, then thy estimation shall be according to the seed       thereof: an homer of barley seed shall be valued at fifty shekels of silver."               Numbers 3:47 "Thou shalt even take five shekels apiece by the poll, after the       shekel of the sanctuary shalt thou take them: (the shekel is twenty)"               Numbers 3:50 "Of the firstborn of the children of Israel took he the money; a       thousand three hundred and threescore and five shekels, after the shekel of       the sanctuary:"               Matthew 21:12-13 "And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them       that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the money       changers, and the seats of them that sold doves, And said unto them, It is       written, My house shall be        called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves."               Mark 12:41-42 "And Jesus sat over against the treasury, and beheld how the       people cast money into the treasury: and many that were rich cast in much. And       there came a certain poor widow, and she threw in two mites, which make a       farthing."               Acts 8:20 "But Peter said unto him, Thy money perish with thee, because thou       hast thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money."               > Note: 17 times in God's Word the tithe is declared to be fruits, vegetables       and clean animals from the Promise Land, and 14 times that we have listed       above, God's Word records the use of money over a long period of time.              > Conclusion; We must always seek and accept God's description of anything. If       God declares in His word that the tithe shall be fruits, vegetables and clean       animals from the Promise Land, then that is how it is, that is reality, that       is truth. God means        what He says, and says EXACTLY what He means; that includes what He says about       tithing; there is within God's Word NO SUCH THING AS MONETARY TITHING (THE       TITHING OF MONEY).              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
