   RE: "And yet you completely missed the point of both 1 Peter 2:9 and

   ANSWER...   
      
   Wrong; didn't miss anything.    
      
   >> This verse says...   
      
   1 Peter 2:9 - "But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy   
   nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who   
   hath called you out of darkness into his marvelous light:"   
      
   1 Peter 2:9 does NOT state that anyone, or pastor, is a Levite. Does not   
   authorize anyone, including Gene Scott or Melissa Scott to collect tithes. 1   
   Peter 2:9 DOES refer to the New Testament Church, Christians, as priests based   
   on the Hebrews 7:17 which    
   says "For he testifieth, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of   
   Melchisedec." Because Jesus is "a priest for ever after the order of   
   Melchisedec" we are as He is being Joint Heirs with Jesus. Guess what, Dennis;   
   JESUS IS RECEIVING TITHES FROM NO    
   ONE.   
      
   >> This verse says...   
      
   Revelation 1:6 - "And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father;   
   to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen."   
      
   Revelation 1:6 does NOT state that anyone, or pastor, is a Levite. Does not   
   authorize anyone, including Gene Scott or Melissa Scott to collect tithes.   
   Revelation 1:6 DOES refer to the New Testament Church, Christians, as priests   
   based on the Hebrews 7:17    
   which says "For he testifieth, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of   
   Melchisedec." Because Jesus is "a priest for ever after the order of   
   Melchisedec" we are as He is being Joint Heirs with Jesus. Guess what, Dennis;   
   JESUS IS RECEIVING TITHES    
   FROM NO ONE.   
      
   >> This verse says...   
      
   Revelation 5:10 - "And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we   
   shall reign on the earth."   
      
   Revelation 5:10 does NOT state that anyone, or pastor, is a Levite. Does not   
   authorize anyone, including Gene Scott or Melissa Scott to collect tithes.   
   Revelation 5:10 DOES refer to the New Testament Church, Christians, as priests   
   based on the Hebrews 7:   
   17 which says "For he testifieth, Thou art a priest for ever after the order   
   of Melchisedec." Because Jesus is "a priest for ever after the order of   
   Melchisedec" we are as He is being Joint Heirs with Jesus. Guess what, Dennis;   
   JESUS IS RECEIVING TITHES    
   FROM NO ONE.   
      
   IN FACT; Neither 1 Peter 2:9, Revelation 1:6 or Revelation 5:10 state that any   
   New Testament Christian is a Levite authorize to collect tithes in any way   
   shape or form from anyone.   
      
   Your claim of "And yet you completely missed the point" is a red herring, and   
   you know it.   
      
   You have been proven wrong with no scripture in hand to prove you're right   
   concerning what ever you're trying to "prove." Therefore, you're trying to   
   rely on a nebulous nonsensical claim of "you completely missed the point."   
   Missed what point, Dennis?    
   Tell me what "point" I'm missing?    
      
   You're sounding just like Gene who consistently claimed that "no one gets it,"   
   and conveniently never told anyone what "it" was. I personally believe that   
   Gene's statement of "no one gets it" was little more that a narcissistic   
   statement of his own    
   feelings of superiority over other people (he "got it," no one else did...oh,   
   I forgot; Melissa "got it"), and a carrot he dangled in front of everyone to   
   keep people "coming back over and over again to try and learn what 'it' was."   
   If Gene was right    
   that "no one gets it" than he was a lousy teacher that couldn't teach worth a   
   damn and should have been replaced with a skilled teacher-pastor who could   
   teach the truth of God's word SO PEOPLE WOULD GET IT.   
      
   I think it drives you crazy when see me (could be anyone, actually) run rings   
   around Genie "PhD," and easily prove him WRONG on many issues. I also think   
   it's time you realized that Gene Scott preached and taught a considerable   
   degree of PURE ABSOLUTE    
   BULLSHIT to his followers. Only an incompetent "teacher" would conclude that a   
   pastor is some kind of "Levite" ("type" or not) with the right to setup a   
   bunch of "king's tithers" and demand ten percent of their monetary income, not   
   to mention the idiotic    
   BULLSHIT he began teaching questioning someone's salvation if they were not so   
   called "tithers."    
      
   Tell me, Dennis; what is the "it" you claim I'm not getting? That God calls us   
   to be givers? Really, you think?!   
      
   Gene was NOT teaching free will giving, he was teaching a non Biblical, non   
   New Testament legalistic fake BULLSHIT "tithing" system NOT FOUND IN SCRIPTURE.   
      
   Gene's pressure game for money was obvious; send money or I'm going off the   
   air!...send money to support my latest cause!...send money to support my   
   latest battle!...send money to support my latest secret!...send money because   
   you owe me money because I    
   taught you!...send money to demonstrate your faith!...send money, be a   
   Gideon!...and of course, TITHE!! I can't recall a single time Gene Scott every   
   read 2 Corinthians 9:7 and told his followers NOT TO GIVE BEING PRESURRED TO   
   DO SO. Why? Simple; he was    
   pressuring people to send in money...GET ON THE PHONES!!!!    
      
   This is how we are to give...   
      
   2 Corinthians 9:7 - "Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let   
   him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver."    
      
   NOTE: "NOT...of necessity," or as some translations read "NOT UNDER   
   COMPULSION" ...being compelled to do so, pressured to do so; "Tithe of burn in   
   hell!" "Tithe or you're not saved!" "Tithe to prove you value my teaching!"   
      
   So, Dennis; explain to me what the "it" is...the "point" you say I'm missing.   
      
   PS;   
      
   RE: "You are fixated one something that has nothing to do with our role as   
   those with the implantation of God's own spirit and of whom he spoke our names   
   before the universe was formed."   
      
   LOL, nice empty rhetoric, an impressive strawman, though.   
      
   >> Tell me, Dennis; do I not get it here?...   
      
   How To Be Obedient To God In Tithing...   
      
   1. Move to the land of Israel before you begin tithing. Deuteronomy 12:10-11   
      
   To tithe in any other land than the land of Israel is an act of disobedience   
   to God’s tithe command.
