      From: herbertwarmstrong@cog-web-svc.com              Title: What Our Readers Say...       Publication: The Good News Magazine       Publisher: Radio Church of God       Editor: Herbert W Armstrong       Issue: Dec 1965       Number: Vol 14, No 12       Page: 3       Type: Letter       Type Media: PDF              Sad But Wiser              "I am a sad example of one who       decided to quit tithing for just a little       while until I could catch up on some       of my bills. Well, that little while       turned out to be several months and       I still haven't caught up. My financial       situation has become increasingly worse       and worse. The last few weeks have       been a nightmare. Financial difficulties       have come against me like waves of the       sea and all my frantic efforts to make       ends meet have been in vain. I am       forced to make double payments on my       house each month to prevent foreclosure,       and to add to all this frustration,       my last double payment became lost in       the mail (a distance of only 72 miles       to its destination). This quickly       brought another threat of foreclosure.       To top it all off, I am being harshly       criticized by my mother for deciding to       tithe again. Well, I'm mailing my tithe       anyway despite criticism and the threatening       foreclosure. I sincerely hope that       others will not have to learn through       bitter experience that it always pays to       obey God no matter what the circumstances       are."              https://www.cog-hwa.org/pub/gn/1965/GN-1965-12.pdf#page=3                     Title: God Prospers the Tither!       Publication: The Plain Truth Magazine       Issue: Aug 1934       Editor: Herbert W Armstrong       Number: Vol 1, No 6       Page: 8       Type: Article       Type Media: PDF              https://www.cog-hwa.org/pub/pt/1934/PT-1934-08.pdf#page=8              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
