it is evident that you an alien to the commonwealth of Israel, so your matter is of no import. how can you make any meaningful contribution to something above your understanding

Pro 18:6 A fool's lips enter into contention, and his mouth calleth for strokes.
Pro 18:7 A fool's mouth is his destruction, and his lips are the snare of his soul.
Pro 18:13 He that answereth a matter before he heareth it, it is folly and shame unto him.

Pro 3:9 Honour the LORD with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase:
my dear, there are some things i do that need not to be explained to people but are secrets that many christians have failed to understand cos many of us ignore the Holy Spirits' ministry in their lives.

thank you for the advise but i know what to do and have been doing this over many years with undeniable results in my life.

You preach a gospel of greed and indulgence.

The Holy Spirit is not made available for accumulating material possessions and stacks of money.

The Spirit is made available for birthing children into God's kingdom, perfecting them unto holiness, healing the sick, setting the captives free etc.

I do not think you know the real JESUS , you worship another JESUS.

Re: Have You Given Your Firstfruit? by Goshen360(m): 5:25pm On Feb 06, 2013
First, you will need to go back to the original context and institution of firstfruit in the Torah. Do you people ever study or understand God's word or you just want to see money in every book of the bible rather than see Christ in every book of the bible? The firstfruits in its original context was pointing to Jesus Christ.

The firstfruits is not and was never money but a foreshadow of Christ's resurrection whereby Christians also are resurrected with Christ. I hope to do some intensive teaching on how Christ fulfilled this firstfruits types and shadows someday. In the meantimes, enjoy these verses that unveils the revelation of Christ being the firstfruit, not people whole month's salary.

New International Version
But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep. - 1 Corinthians 15:20

King James 2000 Bible
But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming. - 1 Corinthians 15:23

You people should stop twisting every scriptures to part with people's money every year. When have you become the Old Testament High Priest that does sacrifice year in, year out. Unlike Christ, His sacrifice is ONCE AND FOR ALL! That's why you people cannot please God with yearly repetition of what Christ had already done and fulfilled.

Please reread my post carefully and show me where I called you a thief. All I did was to tell you what olé meant in English. It's shows that you are either dumb or lack comprehension skills.

So you think the best way to receive from God after paying your "first fruits" is to announce it to the whole wide world.

From you posts you are either innocently ignorant or a thief. There you go. You finally succeeded in forcing me to call you a thief. Now listen to those who know the scriptures more than you or shut up

i wonder a lot at many people on this forum claiming to know so much but always refusing to read before posting.
firstfruits in the old testament was God's way of taking the first place in the produce of the israelites, meaning He should take preeminence in what they own and what they work for.
the reason i give my first fruit (being my first salary for the year)is with same motive and it has nothing to do with seeing money on every page of the bible. meanwhile, "your" money represents you and if you can part with it, that says a lot cos where your treasure is, your heart lies.
furthermore, people that have business like livestock do come to present the first and best to God as their firstfruit.

Gen 4:4 And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof. And the LORD had respect unto Abel and to his offering:
this action is not an indication that your money is needed but that your love for the Master made you give Him your first earning for the new year.
i wonder how you look, why must you always look at the side of trying to steal or take money from you? have you ever stopped to think about this; as much as you have been a bitter critic of prosperity, don't you see that the work is moving at such a speed that your money's absence is hardly noticed?
your giving is to God and not to any man! if you are crossed at MOGs for reasons best known to you, you have not been appointed by God to be His EFCC personnel, i believe God can deal with them if they mess up.
please, stop these accusations against prosperity cos you are only displaying your ignorance of the Word to the world you are supposed to save.
so give Him your first and best, simple!
