|    THE DECEPTIVE USE OF THE DECONSTRUCTING     |
|    05 Jan 24 16:57:05    |
      From: theadvancedmarketinggroup@gmail.com              THE DECEPTIVE USE OF THE DECONSTRUCTING QUESTION              Biblical warning...              Ephesians 4:14 - "That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro,       and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and       cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;"              > DECONSTRUCTING QUESTIONS              While a deconstructing question can be used for good, to question something to       see if it is valid, as in a valid truth being examined, a deconstructing       question can also be used to attack the truth and bring about confusion and       doubt of the facts.              A deconstructing question is often a device used by tithing teachers to bring       doubt or add confusion to the Biblical facts concerning tithing.              > THE TRAP              The deconstructing question is asked to trap a person into agreeing to do       something because they can't respond with an answer, a logical refutation as       to why something should not be done or why some behavior should not be engaged       in. Tithing teachers        will often ask; "Wasn't tithing was in practice before law," inferring that       because there is a record of tithing (Genesis 14) before the law, the Law of       Moses, it should continue after the law into the New Testament. The simple       response is this; How does        tithing being in existence before the law prove it should continue after the       law? In fact it doesn't.              The sacrificing of animals for sin was in existence before the law; is that to       continue after the law? Obviously not, Jesus is our final sacrifice for sin!              > THE GARDEN              Satan can be seen using a deconstructing question on Eve in the Garden of Eden       in the form of a question concerning what God had said...       "Now the serpent was more subtle than any beast of the field which the LORD       God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat       of every tree of the garden?" - Genesis 3:1              NOTE: "HATH GOD SAID...?" ...a clear deconstructing question. Satan's question       was designed to put doubt in Eve's mind as to whether or not God meant what He       had said in Genesis 2:17; "But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil,       thou shalt not eat        of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die."              After satan had introduced doubt into the mind of Eve with his deconstructing       question, he then followed up with a blatant lie and an attack on the truth as       seen in Genesis 3:4; "And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely       die:"              First we see doubt and confusion sowed into Eve's mind, then the follow-up       with the frontal attack on God's word with the deceptive claim; "Ye shall not       surely die:" The result? Eve fell for the lies of satan based on a foundation       of doubt and confusion        and ate of the fruit God had commanded her and Adam not to eat resulting in       their fall into sin, separation from God and ultimately their death.              > TITHING TEACHERS              Tithing teachers can be seen frequently using a deconstructing question in a       deceptive attempt to bring doubt on the fact that tithing is not a New       Testament requirement or practice. The following deconstructing question is       often used, and I quote...              "Is it a sin to tithe?" - asked by tithing teachers. Another question asked by       tithing teachers is this; "Tithing was around before the law, why not after       the law?" The answer is simple; how does tithing being in existence before the       law (the Law of        Moses) prove it should be practiced after the law? In fact, it doesn't.       Sacrificing of animals for sin was in existence before the law; are we to       continue in the practice of animal sacrifice for sin after the law? Obviously       not.              Many people untrained in the word of truth, unable to discern evil and good as       mentioned in Hebrews 5:12-14 many times fall prey to such a question being       unable to answer the tithing teacher's seemingly valid questioning. Deceived       tithers will respond in        ignorance of God's word by concluding something such as "Well, no, I don't       think the Bible says tithing is a sin, so therefore it must be OK to tithe."       They fail to see the evil deception in such a question. Or, as God's word       warns...              Hebrews 5:12-14 - "For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need       that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God;       and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat. For every       one that useth milk        is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe. But strong meat       belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have       their senses exercised to discern both good and evil."              Just as doubt and confusion were sowed into Eve's mind by satan, doubt and       confusion are sowed into the mind of the deceived tither by the tithing       teacher. God has said tithing has been ended but "is it a sin to tithe?"              The question; "Is it a sin to tithe?" is used as a "gotcha, you can't answer,       so I have proved that a Christian should be tithing." When in reality they       have proven nothing except as to how deceptive and ignorant they are. The       simple answer is this; "YES,        it is a sin to tithe money because has said not to do so. In fact God has       ended tithing completely"                     >> See ARTICLE ONE below on tithing, and that tithing money is a sin.              > ANOTHER DECONSTRUCTING QUESTION              Prosperity gospel, word faith heretic and tithing teacher, Andrew Wommack has       his own deconstructing question routinely used by him to confuse the gullible.       Wommack can often be heard asking his followers "You don't have to tithe, by       why wouldn't you        want to tithe?" I can almost hear satan asking Eve "you don't have to eat of       the fruit, by wouldn't you desire to do so?"              The similarity between satan and Wommack's technique is clear; Wommack is       telling his followers that they don't have to tithe, but if they don't tithe       they're missing out on some kind of blessing or benefit.              In the case of satan speaking to Eve, satan said to her in Genesis 3:5 "For       God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened,       and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil." She wasn't being forced to       eat of the fruit, she        didn't have to do so, but if she didn't, claimed satan, she would miss out on       "ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil."                     [continued in next message]              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
