|    Money is mentioned 44 times in 32 texts     |

      From: theadvancedmarketinggroup@gmail.com              God says His tithe is FOOD (Lev 27:30, 32; Num 18:27-28; Deut 12:17; 14:22-23;       26:12; 2 Chron 31:5-6; Neh 10:37; 13:5; Mal 3:10-11; Matt 23:23; Luke 11:42).              Deceitful pastors, tithe teachers and pro-tithers say tithes are MONEY (yet       they cannot provide one scripture that proves God commands a monetary tithe       from anyone). So someone here must be lying! Who do you think that would be?              Money is mentioned 44 times in 32 texts from Genesis to Deuteronomy before God       instituted the holy tithe in Leviticus 27 (Genesis 13:2; 17:12; 20:23:19-26;       37:28; 45:22; Exodus 21-22; 30:12; Lev 25:47-53; 27:3-7; Num 3:47; 14:26;       22:29).              Yet despite there being money available even back then, God distinctly       ordered Israel alone to tithe agriculture, fruits of the trees and livestock       (Lev 27:30, 32; Num 18:27-28) never MONEY. This commandment was to only those       Israelites who were farmers        and herdsmen...no one else.              There were some 50 different occupations in Israel apart from farmers and       herdsmen, fishermen, tentmakers, carpenters, builders, craftsmen, bakers,       skinners, tradesmen, artisans, administrators, bankers...etc. They were exempt       from tithing.               In fact if you have studied your Bible properly you will have learned that       Gentile nations were not under the Law (Psalms 147:19-20; Mal 4:4), nor were       Gentiles ever part of the covenants of promise from God (Eph 2:11-12).              The Holy Spirit, the elders and apostles made that very clear in Acts 15 that       Gentile converts were not under the Law, nor were they to be burdened by the       Law. Of the 613 laws/commandments etc....Gentile converts were to uphold on 4       things (Acts 15:19-20,        28-29) which designed to help in keeping them from returning to pagan       practices. The rest of the 609, which included tithing, circumcision, even the       Sabbath Day were not relevant to the Gentile converts.              In fact the Law of Moses was abolished by Christ's death on the cross. No       tithes, no tithing...zero!              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
