What Does God Need Your Tithe For? by DZTech: 11:51am On Dec 13, 2021
Its like we're confused Christians...
Is Jesus Christ hungry?
Does He need new clothes?
Or to pay house rent?
Which of the apostles or early Christans paid tithe?
Are you truly redeemed, or Jesus needs your tithe before He provides for your needs-
According to His riches in glory?
"Come to me WITH YOUR TITHES, all you who are weary and heavily burdened."
Is that what He said?

Paul preached across a whole continent and worked for his daily bread.
Your pastor-
What's his job?
All him why he doesn't have a job like Paul, then step back and see mouth chopping.
Whether Sunday service or Shiloh, the ONLY thing Jesus expects you to bring is your heart.
Anyone who tells you differently is a false Shepherd, a heretic and the enemy of Christ's Body, the Church.

Feel free to give your offerings and even donations. But your tithe isn't an investment that can give you ROI in form of jobs or more money.
Or a spouse.
Abi u won bribe God to "settle your matter"?
E be like sey we no dey read Bible again sef...

God no need any tithes again.
If you are still paying tithes don't forget other laws of Moses too.
We are now right with God by grace not by law again.

(1) LORD YESHUA ENDORSED THE PRACTICE OF TITHING: NOTHING MORE NEED TO BE SAID ABOUT IT THAN THAT.

.   MATTHEW 23:23.

23. "Woe unto you,
scribes and Pharisees,
Hypocrites!
for ye pay tithe of
mint and anise and cummin,
and have omitted
the weightier matters of the Law,
Judgment, Mercy, and Faith:
these ought ye to have done,
and not to leave the other undone."

(2) YES- LORD YESHUA GETS HUNGRY- HE NEEDS NEW CLOTHES, AND OTHER THINGS!

If you were a Christian yourself, it would be your business to know this.

.    MATTHEW 25:31-46.

31. "When The Son of Man
shall come in his Glory,
and all the holy Angels with him,
then shall he sit upon
The Throne of his Glory:
32. "And before him
shall be gathered all nations:
and he shall separate them
one from another,
as a shepherd divideth
his sheep from the goats:
33. "And he shall set
the sheep on his right hand,
but the goats on the left."
34. "Then shall the King say
unto them on his right hand,

'COME,
YE BLESSED OF MY FATHER,
INHERIT THE KINGDOM
PREPARED FOR YOU
FROM THE FOUNDATION OF THE WORLD:
35. 'FOR I WAS AN HUNGRED,
AND YE GAVE ME MEAT:
I WAS THIRSTY,
AND YE GAVE ME DRINK:
I WAS A STRANGER,
AND YE TOOK ME IN:
36. 'NAKED,
AND YE CLOTHED ME:
I WAS SICK,
AND YE VISITED ME:
I WAS IN PRISON,
AND YE CAME UNTO ME.'


37. "Then shall the Righteous
answer him,
saying,

'LORD,
WHEN SAW WE THEE AN HUNGRED,
AND FED THEE?
OR THIRSTY,
AND GAVE THEE DRINK?
38. 'WHEN SAW WE THEE A STRANGER,
AND TOOK THEE IN?
OR NAKED,
AND CLOTHED THEE?
39. 'OR WHEN SAW WE THEE SICK,
OR IN PRISON,
AND CAME
UNTO THEE?'


40. "And the King shall answer
and say unto them,

'VERILY I SAY UNTO YOU,

"INASMUCH AS YE HAVE DONE IT
UNTO ONE OF THE LEAST
OF THESE MY BRETHREN,
YE HAVE DONE IT UNTO ME." '


41. "Then shall he say also
unto them on the left hand,

'DEPART FROM ME,
YE CURSED,
INTO EVERLASTING FIRE,
PREPARED FOR THE DEVIL
AND HIS ANGELS:
42. 'FOR I WAS AN HUNGRED,
AND YE GAVE ME NO MEAT:
I WAS THIRSTY,
AND YE GAVE ME NO DRINK:
43. 'I WAS A STRANGER,
AND YE TOOK ME NOT IN:
NAKED,
AND YE CLOTHED ME NOT:
SICK,
AND IN PRISON,
AND YE VISITED ME NOT.'


44. "Then shall they also
answer him,
saying,

'LORD,
WHEN SAW WE THEE
AN HUNGRED,
OR ATHIRST,
OR A STRANGER,
OR NAKED,
OR SICK,
OR IN PRISON,
AND DID NOT MINISTER
UNTO THEE?'


45. "Then shall he answer them,
saying,

'VERILY I SAY UNTO YOU,

"INASMUCH AS YE DID IT NOT
TO ONE OF THE LEAST OF THESE,
YE DID IT NOT TO ME." '


46. "And these shall go away
into Everlasting Punishment:
but the Righteous into Life Eternal."

(3) WHAT THE APOSTLES DID OR DID NOT DO IS IMMATERIAL, BECAUSE THEY WERE NOT REAL DISCIPLES.

As the defacto Heads of the Church, they received Tithes and Offerings from other Christians.

.     ACTS 4:34-35.

34. Neither was there any
among them that lacked:
for as many as were possessors
of lands or houses sold them,
and brought the prices
of the things that were sold,
35. And laid them down
at the Apostles' feet:
and distribution was made
unto every man
according as he had need.

DZTech:

Are you truly redeemed, or Jesus needs your tithe before He provides for your needs-
According to His riches in glory?

(4) OH- THE "REDEEMED" THEORY: WHO TOLD YOU THAT CHRISTIANS ARE REDEEMED?

The anecdotal claim that Lord Yeshua paid for people's Sins is an AfterThought presented by the alleged Disciples of Lord Yeshua, (whose actions are consistent with having murdered the original Disciples, and then seized leadership themselves, with the purpose of destroying the Church from within. Toward that end they had the cooperation of MARY, Lord Yeshua's Mother, and YACUB, her son, and Lord Yeshua's Brother.

The pair had opposed Lord Yeshua's Ministry before. After his Ascension was their greatest chance to destroy it.

YACUB spearheaded the vote to treacherously deny Gentile Christians THE LAW OF MOSES, AND CIRCUMCISION- which would surely destroy them.

If the Disciples who were not present had known how Lord Yeshua spent his last hours, betrayed by his own bodyguards, they could have killed the "Apostles" then and there. When SAUL OF TARSUS went on rampage, hauling "innumerable" First Christians to their deaths in rigged trials, it was only those Christians whom the "Apostles" could not control, who should have been put to death.

Maybe Christians who knew that they were not the real Disciples.

Anyone who doubts this circumstantial evidence should show where, in all their blather, any of them taught anything that Lord Yeshua actually told them to preach! He explicitly forbade them to tell any man that he was The Christ. THEY HAD TO HEAR THAT FROM GOD.

.    MARK 10:17-23.

17. And when he was gone forth into the way,
there came one running,
and kneeled to him, and asked him,
"Good Master, what shall I do
that I may inherit Eternal Life?

18. And Jesus Said unto him,

"Why callest thou me good?
there is none good but One,
that is, God.
19. "Thou knowest The Commandments,

'DO NOT COMMIT ADULTERY, DO NOT KILL,
DO NOT STEAL, DO NOT BEAR FALSE WITNESS,
DEFRAUD NOT, HONOUR THY FATHER AND MOTHER.' “


20. And he answered and said unto him,

"Master, all these have I observed
from my youth."

21. Then Jesus beholding him loved him,
and Said unto him,

"One thing thou lackest:
go thy way,
sell whatsoever thou hast,
and give to the poor,
and thou shalt have Treasure in Heaven:
and come,
take up the cross,
and follow me."

22. And he was sad at that saying,
and went away grieved:
for he had great possessions.
23. And Jesus looked round about,
and saith unto his Disciples,

"How hardly shall they that have riches
enter into The Kingdom of God!"

24. And the Disciples
were astonished at his words.
But Jesus answereth again,
and saith unto them,

"Children, how hard is it
for them that trust in riches
to enter into The Kingdom of God!
25. "It is easier for a camel
to go through the eye of a needle,
than for a rich man
to enter into The Kingdom of God."

26. And they were astonished out of measure,
saying among themselves,

"Who then can be Saved?"

27. And Jesus looking upon them saith,

"With men it is impossible,
but not with God:
for with God
all things are possible."

28. Then Peter began to say unto him,

"Lo, we have left all,
and have followed thee."

29. And Jesus Answered and Said,

"Verily I Say unto you,

'THERE IS NO MAN THAT HATH LEFT HOUSE,
OR BRETHREN, OR SISTERS,
OR FATHER, OR MOTHER,
OR WIFE, OR CHILDREN,
OR LANDS,
FOR MY SAKE,
AND THE GOSPEL'S,
30. 'BUT HE SHALL RECEIVE
AN HUNDREDFOLD NOW IN THIS TIME,
HOUSES, AND BRETHREN,
AND SISTERS, AND MOTHERS,
AND CHILDREN,
AND LANDS,
WITH PERSECUTIONS;
AND IN THE WORLD TO COME
ETERNAL LIFE.'


31. "But many that are first shall be last;
and the last first."

ANY DISCIPLE WHO GIVES FROM LORD YESHUA'S SAKE OR THE GOSPEL'S WILL RECEIVE A HUNDREDFOLD MORE THAN WHAT THEY GAVE- NOW IN THIS LIFE.

DZTech:

"Come to me WITH YOUR TITHES, all you who are weary and heavily burdened."
Is that what He said?

(5) YES! THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT HE SAID- OR WHAT DO YOU THINK THOSE WEARYING BURDENS WERE?

The Tithes and Offerings that Worshippers of God keep back are a wearying burden to those who have been keeping them from The Work of God on Earth.

.    MALACHI 3:6-12.

6. "For I am The LORD, I change not;
therefore ye Sons of Jacob are not consumed.
7. "Even from the days of your fathers
ye are gone away from Mine Ordinances,
and have not kept Them.
Return unto Me, and I will Return unto you,"

Saith The LORD of Hosts. But ye said,

"WHEREIN WILL WE RETURN?"

8. "Will a man rob God?
Yet ye have robbed Me."

But ye say,

"WHEREIN HAVE WE ROBBED THEE?"

"In Tithes and Offerings.
9. "Ye are cursed with a Curse:
for ye have robbed Me,
even this whole Nation.
10. "Bring ye all the Tithes into The Storehouse,
that there may be Meat in Mine House,
and prove Me now herewith,"
saith the LORD of Hosts,
"If I will not open you The Windows of Heaven,
and pour you out a Blessing,
that there shall not be room enough to receive It.
11. "And I will rebuke the Devourer for your sakes,
and he shall not destroy the Fruits of your Ground;
neither shall your Vine cast her Fruit
before the Time in the Field,"

Saith The LORD of Hosts.

12. "And all nations shall call you Blessed:
for ye shall be a Delightsome Land,"
saith the LORD of Hosts."

.    MARK 12:38-44.

38. And he Said unto them in his Doctrine,

"Beware of the scribes,
which love to go in long clothing,
and love Salutations in the Marketplaces,
39. "And the Chief Seats in the Synagogues,
and the Uppermost Rooms at Feasts:
40. "Which devour widows' houses,
and for a pretence make Long Prayers:
these shall receive Greater Damnation."
41. And Jesus sat over against the Treasury,
and beheld how the people
cast money into the Treasury:
and many that were rich cast in much.
42. And there came a certain poor widow,
and she threw in two mites,
which make a farthing.
43. And he called unto him his Disciples,
and Caith unto them,
"Verily I Say unto you,

'THAT THIS POOR WIDOW
HATH CAST MORE IN,
THAN ALL THEY WHICH HAVE
CAST INTO THE TREASURY:
44. 'FOR ALL THEY DID CAST IN
OF THEIR ABUNDANCE;
BUT SHE OF HER WANT DID CAST IN
ALL THAT SHE HAD,
EVEN ALL HER LIVING.' "


DZTech:

Paul preached across a whole continent and worked for his daily bread.

(6) PAUL HAD TO WORK FOR A LIVING, BECAUSE HE WAS NOT A REAL CHRISTIAN- HE WAS A SANHEDRIN UNDERCOVER AGENT THAT WHOLE TIME.

God was NOT providing ANY of His needs.

.    ACTS 23:6.

6. But when Paul perceived
that the one part were Sadducees,
and the other Pharisees,
he cried out in the Council,
 
"Men and Brethren,
I am a Pharisee,
the son of a Pharisee:
of the Hope and Resurrection
of the Dead
I am called in question."

.   MATTHEW 6:19-24.

19. “Lay not up for yourselves Treasures upon Earth,
where moth and rust doth corrupt,
and where thieves break through and steal:
20. “But lay up for yourselves Treasures in Heaven,
where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt,
and where thieves do not break through nor steal:
21. “For where your Treasure is,
there will your heart be also.
22. "The Light of the body is the Eye:
if therefore thine Eye be single,
thy whole body shall be full of Light.
23. "But if thine eye be evil,
thy whole body shall be full of Darkness.
If therefore the Light that is in thee be Darkness,
how great is that Darkness!
24. "No man can serve two masters:
for either he will hate the one, and love the other;
or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other.
Ye cannot serve God and mammon."

HE SURELY RECEIVED THIRTY PIECES OF SILVER FOR EVERY CHRISTIAN THAT HE PULLED IN, AND WAS THE RICHEST SANHEDRIN MARSHAL AROUND.

.     GALATIANS 1:6-14.

6. I marvel that ye are so soon removed
from him that called you
into the Grace of Christ unto Another Gospel:
7. Which is not another;
but there be some that trouble you,
and would pervert The Gospel of Christ.
8. But though we, or an Angel from Heaven,
preach any other Gospel unto you
than that which we have preached unto you,
let him be Accursed.
9. As we said before,
so say I now again,

"IF ANY MAN PREACH
ANY OTHER GOSPEL UNTO YOU
THAN THAT YE HAVE RECEIVED,
LET HIM BE ACCURSED."


10. For do I now persuade men, or God?
or do I seek to please men?
for if I yet pleased men,
I should not be the Servant of Christ.
11. But I certify you, Brethren,
that the Gospel which was preached of me
is not after Man.
12. For I neither received it of Man,
neither was I taught it,
but by the Revelation of Jesus Christ.
13. For ye have heard of my conversation
in time past in the Jews' Religion,
how that beyond measure
I persecuted The Church of God,
and wasted it:
14. And profited in the Jews' Religion
above many my equals in mine own nation,
being more exceedingly zealous
of The Traditions of my Fathers.

THAT MONEY HAD TO RUN OUT, EVENTUALLY- AND LORD YESHUA WAS NOT ANSWERING HIS PRAYERS POSITIVELY.

DZTech:

Your pastor-
What's his job?

(7) THE JOB OF A PASTOR- WHICH IS AN UNLAWFUL OFFICE- IS TO ACT AS A PROFESSIONAL PARENT AND BROTHER TO NUMEROUS OTHER CHRISTIANS.

This is a 24/7 job.

It can be very difficult.

IT HAS TO BE FULL-TIME!

.     LUKE 10:7.

7. "And in the same house remain
 eating and drinking
such things as they give:
for the labourer is worthy of his hire.
Go not from house to house."

THEY EARN EVERY PENNY OF WHAT THEY ARE GIVEN- BECAUSE THEY GIVE WHAT THEIR FOLLOWERS REALLY WANT.

The Psychological reasons why people will pay a Pastor to Heal their loved ones- and go on paying if he fails are beyond the scope of this post. The point is: they pay for what they get- and are satisfied with that.

DZTech:

All him why he doesn't have a job like Paul, then step back and see mouth chopping.

I ASSUME YOU MEANT TO SAY: "ASK HIM."

(cool WE ARE NOT CALLED TO BE LIKE PAUL, BUT LIKE LORD YESHUA!

.    LUKE 8:1-3.

AND it came to pass afterward,
that he went throughout
every city and village,
preaching and shewing
The Glad Tidings
of The Kingdom of God:
and the Twelve were with him,
2. And certain women,
which had been Healed
of Evil Spirits and Infirmities,
Mary called Magdalene,
out of whom went seven devils,
3. And Joanna the wife of Chuza
Herod's steward,
and Susanna, and many others,
which ministered unto him of their substance.

LORD YESHUA'S MINISTRY WAS SUPPORTED BY THE DONATIONS OF HIS FOLLOWERS.

DZTech:

Whether Sunday service or Shiloh, the ONLY thing Jesus expects you to bring is your heart.

(9) WHO TOLD YOU THAT LIE? APPEARING BEFORE THE MAN OF GOD EMPTYHANDED IS A SIN!

 .    EXODUS 23:14-17.

14. "Three times thou shalt keep
a Feast unto Me in the year.
15. "Thou shalt keep
the Feast of Unleavened Bread:
[thou shalt eat unleavened bread
seven days,
as I commanded thee,
in the time appointed of the month Abib;
for in it thou camest out from Egypt:
and none shall appear before Me empty:]
16. "And the Feast of Harvest, the Firstfruits of thy Labours,
which thou hast sown in the field:
and the feast of ingathering, which is in the end of the year,
when thou hast gathered in thy Labours out of the Field.
17. "Three items in the year all thy males
shall appear before the LORD God."

.    EXODUS 34:20.

20. "But the firstling of an ass
thou shalt redeem with a lamb:
and if thou redeem him not,
then shalt thou break his neck.
All the firstborn of thy sons
thou shalt redeem.
And none shall appear before Me empty."

.    1st SAMUEL 9:6-8.

6. And he said unto him,
"Behold now,
there is in this city
a Man of God,
and he is an honourable man;
all that he saith
cometh surely to pass:
now let us go thither;
peradventure he can
shew us our way
that we should go."

7. Then said Saul to his servant,

"But, behold,
if we go,
what shall we bring the man?
For the bread is spent in our vessels,
and there is not a present
to bring to the Man of God:
what have we?"

8. And the servant
answered Saul again,
and said,

"Behold,
I have here at hand
the fourth part of a shekel of silver:
that will I give to the Man of God,
to tell us our way."

IT SHOULD BE THE HEIGHT OF RUDENESS TO BELLY UP TO A MAN WHO HAS MADE MANY SACRIFICES TO SERVE YOU- AND YOU BRING HIM NOTHING! Who do you think you are?

DZTech:

Anyone who tells you differently is a false Shepherd, a heretic and the enemy of Christ's Body, the Church.

(10) WHAT YOU FOOLS NEVER GET IS: ACCUSATIONS ARE NOT PROOF OF GUILT!

.   EXODUS 20:16.

16. "Thou shalt not
bear False Witness
against the Neighbour."

.   DEUTERONOMY 8:11-18.

11. Beware that thou forget not
The LORD thy God,
in not keeping His Commandments,
and His Judgments,
and His Statutes,
Which I command thee this day:
12. Lest when thou hast
eaten and art full,
and hast built goodly houses,
and dwelt therein;
13. And when thy herds
and thy flocks multiply,
and thy silver and thy gold
is multiplied,
and all that thou hast is multiplied;
14. Then thine heart be lifted up,
and thou forget the LORD thy God,
Which brought thee forth
out of The Land of Egypt,
from The House of Bondage;
15. Who led thee through
that Great and Terrible Wilderness,
wherein were Fiery Serpents,
and Scorpions, and Drought,
where there was no Water;
Who brought thee forth Water
out of the Rock of Flint;
16. Who fed thee in the Wilderness
with Manna,
which thy fathers knew not,
that He might humble thee,
and that He might prove thee,
to do thee Good at thy Latter End;
17. And thou say in thine heart,

"MY POWER
AND THE MIGHT
OF MINE HAND
HATH GOTTEN ME
THIS WEALTH."


18. But thou shalt remember
The LORD thy God:
for it is He that giveth thee
Power to get Wealth,
that He may establish His Covenant
which he sware unto thy fathers,
as it is This Day.

.    MATTHEW 22:16-22.

16. And they sent out unto him
their disciples
with the Herodians,
saying,

"Master,
we know that thou art True,
and Teachest The Way of God
in Truth,
neither carest thou
for any man:
for thou regardest not
the person of men.
17. "Tell us therefore,
'What thinkest thou?
Is it lawful
to give tribute unto Caesar,
or not?' "

18. But Jesus perceived
their wickedness,
and said,

"Why tempt ye me,
ye Hypocrites?
19. "Shew me the tribute money."

And they brought unto him a penny.
20. And he Saith unto them,

"Whose is this image
and superscription?"

21. They say unto him,

"Caesar's."

Then Saith he unto them,

"Render therefore unto Caesar
the things which are Caesar's;
and unto God
the things that are God's."

22. When they had heard
these Words,
they marvelled,
and left him,
and went their way.

THE WORSHIPPERS OF GOD WHO PAY TITHES AND OFFERINGS KNOW THAT THE RICHES THEY YIELD UP ALWAYS BELONGED TO GOD.

So much said to defend a simple thought.
And yes, your only defence for tithing is the old testament.

Hmm.
The Christians you mentioned in the Acts of the Apostles-
Was it tithes they were paying?
They sold ALL THEY HAD, right?
And then the Apostles shared it out according to each man's needs.

but whosoever shall say,

'THOU FOOL,'

shall be in danger of Hell Fire.
23. "Therefore if thou bring thy Gift to the Altar,
and there rememberest that thy brother hath ought against thee;
24. "Leave there thy Gift before the Altar,
and go thy way;
first be reconciled to thy brother,
and then come and offer thy Gift.
25. "Agree with thine Adversary quickly,
whiles thou art in the way with him;
lest at any time the Adversary deliver thee to the Judge,
and the Judge deliver thee to the Officer,
and thou be cast into Prison.
26. "Verily I Say unto thee,

'THOU SHALT BY NO MEANS
COME OUT THENCE,
TILL THOU HAST PAID
THE UTTERMOST FARTHING.' "


It was only by the end of the 19th Century that Oyinbo Science finally caught on to the fact that the SINNERS use only 10% of their Minds, Consciously. The discoverers theorized that, with proper training in one's formative years, one could achieve 100% Conscious use of the Mind.

They proved this Theory correct- but it was not until 1950 that a Dropout Researcher proved that it was possible to awaken the "lost" 90% of Consciousness in anyone of any age.

The wicked Atheists and Hypocrites used his lack of academic credentials against him, and conspired to bury his work.

To defend It, that discover declared his discovery to be the basis of a new Religion he called "SCIENTOLOGY."

That protected him from further US Government interference.

His discovery was completely based on BIBLICAL Principles.

.   LEVITICUS 11:1-47.
.   MATTHEW 18:1-35.[/b]
.   EPISTLE OF BARNABAS 9:1-20.[/b]
.   EPISTLE OF BARNABAS 10:11-12.[/b]

However, he never revealed that, and took all the Glory for himself.

Which led to the loss of the major Blessings that should have been his.

I recently learned that SCIENTOLOGY DOES NOT WORK PROPERLY FOR THE OYINBOS- and they have been covering this fact up.

This is a consequence of NOT PAYING TITHES.

.    THE TEN TALENTS OF POWER.    (Matthew 25:1-46.)

1. TOTAL RECALL.
2. EXTRASENSORY PERCEPTION.
3. TELEKINESIS.
4. TELEPORTATION.
5. TRANSLATION.
6-10. EVERLASTING LIFE.


THIS IS THE COMPLETE SPECTRUM OF SPIRITUAL POWERS.

SCIENTOLOGY should have been the easiest way to attain EVERLASTING LIFE, but it simply isn't.

Too much has been removed.

I believe that their abilities stop at TELEPORTATION.

Whereas, if Christians applied the same techniques L. Ron Hubbard taught them, the Christianity Lord Yeshua taught would easily be theirs- because they belong to us.

THE ORIGINAL TITHE IS 10%, CONSISTENT WITH THE NOVICE PERSON-OF-GOD SERVING GOD WITH ONLY 10% OF THEIR MIND.

If God has given us more, we are indebted more.

.    THE TEN TALENTS OF POWER.    (Matthew 25:1-46.)

1. TOTAL RECALL                          = 10%.
2. EXTRASENSORY PERCEPTION     =20%.
3. TELEKINESIS                                   =30%.
4. TELEPORTATION                           =40%.
5. TRANSLATION                               =50%.
6-10. EVERLASTING LIFE                  =100%.


IF A PERSON ATTAINED EVERLASTING LIFE, I THINK THEY WOULD BE QUITE HAPPY TO PAY TITHES OF 100% OF THEIR SUBSTANCE.

.    LUKE 7:36-50.

36. And one of the Pharisees
desired him
that he would eat with him.
And he went into the Pharisee's house,
and sat down to meat.
37. And, behold, a woman in the city,
which was a Sinner,
when she knew that Jesus sat at meat
in the Pharisee's house,
brought an alabaster box of ointment,
38. And stood at his feet behind him weeping,
and began to wash his feet with tears,
and did wipe them with the hairs of her head,
and kissed his feet,
and anointed them with the ointment.
39. Now when the Pharisee
which had bidden him saw it,
he spake within himself,
saying,

"This man,
if he were a Prophet,
would have known who
and what manner of woman this is
that toucheth him:
for she is a Sinner."

40. And Jesus Answering
Said unto him,

"Simon, I have somewhat to say unto thee."

And he saith,

"Master, say on."

41. There was a certain creditor
which had two debtors:
the one owed five hundred pence,
and the other fifty.
42. And when they had nothing to pay,
he frankly forgave them both.
Tell me therefore,
which of them will love him most?”

43. Simon answered and said,

"I suppose that he,
to whom he forgave most."

And he Said unto him,

"Thou hast rightly judged."

44. And he turned to the woman,
and said unto Simon,

"Seest thou this woman?
I entered into thine house,
thou gavest me no water for my feet:
but she hath washed my feet with tears,
and wiped them with the hairs of her head.
45. “Thou gavest me no kiss:
but this woman since the time I came in
hath not ceased to kiss my feet.
46. "My head with oil thou didst not anoint:
but this woman hath anointed my feet with ointment.
47. "Wherefore I Say unto thee,

'HER SINS,
WHICH ARE MANY,
ARE FORGIVEN;
FOR SHE LOVED MUCH:'
BUT TO WHOM LITTLE IS FORGIVEN,
THE SAME LOVETH LITTLE.' "


48. And he said unto her,

"Thy sins are forgiven."

49. And they that sat at meat with him
began to say within themselves,

"Who is this that forgiveth sins also?"

50. And he said to the woman,

"Thy Faith hath saved thee;
go in Peace."

ALL YOU FOOLS RUNNING AROUND TRYING TO GET FREE, PROTESTANT CHRISTIANS TO STOP PAYING TITHES- BECAUSE YOU BELONG TO EITHER ONE OF THE PROSLAVERY/ANTI-INDEPENDENCE CHURCHES, OR ELSE ARE ATHEISTS- [/i]HAVE RECEIVED [i]NOTHING [/i]FROM GOD- NO FORGIVENESS OF SINS, NO DIVINE HEALTH, NO DIVINE PROSPERITY, AND NO BLESSINGS OF ANY KIND.

Therefore, you cannot be happy that Christians joyously give into the coffers of Pastors who can do nothing at all for your doomed Souls.

It is those who have truly received who are the most truly happy to give back to their Churches.

But what you have seen them give thus far will be as nothing, compared to the Flood Gates MY Doctrine will burst for them!

14. Now Elisha was
fallen sick of his sickness whereof he died.
And Joash the king of Israel
came down unto him,
and wept over his face,
and said,

"O my father, my father,
the Chariot of Israel,
and the Horsemen thereof."

15. And Elisha said unto him,

"Take bow and arrows."

And he took unto him
bow and arrows.
16. And he said
to the king of Israel,

"Put thine hand upon the bow."

And he put his hand upon it:
and Elisha put his hands
upon the king's hands.
17. And he said,

"Open the window eastward."

And he opened it.
Then Elisha said,

"Shoot."

And he shot.
And he said,

"The Arrow of
The LORD'S Deliverance,
and The Arrow of Deliverance
from Syria:
for thou shalt smite
the Syrians in Aphek,
till thou have consumed them."

18. And he said,

"Take the arrows."

And he took them.
And he said unto
the king of Israel,

"Smite upon the ground."

And he smote thrice,
and stayed.
19. And the Man of God
was wroth with him,
and said,

"Thou shouldest have
smitten five or six times;
then hadst thou smitten
Syria till thou hadst
consumed it:
whereas now thou
shalt smite Syria
but thrice."

WHO THE (*Bleep!*)CK ARE YOU IDIOTS? YOU NEVER IDENTIFY YOURSELVES, BEFORE TELLING CHRISTIANS WHAT TO DO!

Yet you expect Christians, who have committed their Lives and their AfterLives to men who baptized then, to abandon their heartfelt Beliefs, and follow you?

WHAT YOU BABBLE IS CONSISTENT WITH HIRED SHILL RHETORIC: YOU WERE TOLD WHAT TO SAY BY BIGGER FOOLS THAN YOURSELVES, WHO THOUGHT TO PLAY UPON AN IGNORANCE THAT DOES NOT EXIST!

You think Christians just fork out their Tithes, because they are stupid, and don't know what to do with their own money.

You didn't know that Tithe-Payers, at least collectively, have all these Beliefs behind what they do.

I know that people will argue that believing in God isn’t about proof—it’s about having faith.

DOING GOD'S COMMANDMENTS THAT SINNERS NEVER DO ENABLES US TO UNLOCK AND UTILIZE FUNCTIONS OF MIND THEY CANNOT IMAGINE EXIST, LET ALONE USE!

[quote author=DZTech post=108476445]
And yes, your only defence for tithing is the old testament.

THE BASIC SHILL TACTICS ARE BLUFFING, LYING, AND PLAYING UPON IGNORANCE AND LACK OF MENTAL DISCIPLINE.

oaroloye:
MISHIGAS!

(1) LORD YESHUA ENDORSED THE PRACTICE OF TITHING: NOTHING MORE NEED TO BE SAID ABOUT IT THAN THAT.

.   MATTHEW 23:23.

23. "Woe unto you,
scribes and Pharisees,
Hypocrites!
for ye pay tithe of
mint and anise and cummin,
and have omitted
the weightier matters of the Law,
Judgment, Mercy, and Faith:
these ought ye to have done,
and not to leave the other undone."


THE ONLY NEW TESTAMENT BASIS OF TITHING WAS LITERALLY THE FIRST THING I SAID!

DZTech:

Hmm.
The Christians you mentioned in the Acts of the Apostles-

WERE ALL COMMANDED TO DO THE THINGS THE PHARISEES COMMANDED.

Which included TITHING MINIUTAE.

. MATTHEW 23:1-3.

THEN Spake Jesus to the multitude,
and to his Disciples,

2. Saying,
"The scribes and the Pharisees
sit in Moses' seat:
3. "All therefore whatsoever
they bid you observe,
that observe and do;
but do not ye
after their works:
for they say, and do not."

OBVIOUSLY, YOU HAVE NOT BEEN GIVEN PERMISSION TO READ PARTS OF THE BIBLE YOUR MASSAS HAVE NOT TOLD YOU TO READ.

This is consistent with ROMAN CATHOLIC/ANGLICAN/BAPTIST UNDERCOVER Operatives.

[See: ALBERTO, by Jack T. Chick.]

DZTech:

Was it tithes they were paying?
They sold ALL THEY HAD, right?

CONSISTENT WITH LORD YESHUA'S EXPLICIT COMMANDMENT: TO BE MORE RIGHTEOUS THAN THE PHARISEES.

. MATTHEW 5:19-20.

19. "Whosoever therefore
shall break one of these
Least Commandments,
and shall teach men so,
he shall be called
The Least
in the Kingdom of Heaven:
but whosoever shall Do
and Teach them,
the same shall be called great
in the Kingdom of Heaven.
20. "For I Say unto you,

'THAT EXCEPT YOUR RIGHTEOUSNESS
SHALL EXCEED THE RIGHTEOUSNESS
OF THE SCRIBES AND PHARISEES,
YE SHALL IN NO CASE
ENTER INTO
THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN.' "


DZTech:

And then the Apostles shared it out according to each man's needs.

CONSISTENT WITH LORD YESHUA'S COMMANDMENT TO GIVE EVERYTHING TO ACHIEVE PERFECTION.

. LUKE 12:33.

33. "Sell that ye have,
and give alms;
provide yourselves bags
which wax not old,
a Treasure in the Heavens
that faileth not,
where no thief approacheth,
neither moth corrupteth."

DZTech:

Oya, go and tell pastors to do the same.
I dey wait their response.
Hala me, k?


IT IS NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS, TO KNOW HOW PASTORS GIVE ALMS.

. MATTHEW 6:1-4.

"TAKE heed that ye do not
your Alms before men,
to be seen of them:
otherwise ye have no Reward
of your Father Which is in Heaven.
2. "Therefore when thou
doest thine Alms,
do not sound a trumpet before thee,
as the Hypocrites do
in the synagogues and in the streets,
that they may have glory of men.
Verily I Say unto you,

'THEY HAVE THEIR REWARD.'

3. "But when thou doest Alms,
let not thy left hand know
what thy right hand doeth:
4. "That thine Alms
may be in Secret:
and thy Father
Which Seeth in Secret Himself
shall Reward thee openly."

WHICHEVER FAKE AND SHAMEFUL RELIGIOUS GROUP YOU BELONG TO, YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT SPIRITUAL LAW!

It applies on every Level of Existence.

. THE SIX LEVELS OF EXISTENCE.

(1) Beliefs; (2) Thoughts; (3) Words; (4) Physical Actions;
(5) Postulates; (6) Total Understanding.


THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD CONSISTENTLY APPLY ON EVERY LEVEL OF EXISTENCE.

If they are not so applied, the consequences can be fatal.

. [ b]MATTHEW 9:16-17.[/b]

16. "No man putteth a piece of new cloth
unto an old garment,
for that which is put in to fill it up
taketh from the garment,
and the rent is made worse.
17. "Neither do men put new wine
into old bottles:
else the bottles break,
and the wine runneth out,
and the bottles perish:
but they put new wine into new bottles,
and both are preserved."

ONE CANNOT AFFORD TO KEEP GOD'S COMMANDMENTS PARTIALLY: THAT WILL DESTROY ONE'S MIND AND NEGATIVELY IMPACT UPON THE BODY, TOO.

Sinners can access The Spiritual Power Spectrum, too.

. THE TEN TALENTS OF POWER. (Matthew 25:1-46.)

(1) TOTAL RECALL.
(2) EXTRASENSORY PERCEPTION.
(3) TELEKINESIS.
(4) TELEPORTATION.
(5) TRANSLATION.
(6-10) EVERLASTING LIFE.



BUT THE RESULTS FALL SHORT OF TRUE IMMORTALITY: ACCESS OF EVERLASTING LIFE CAN RESULT IN IMMEDIATE OR EVENTUAL DEATH.

This is consistent with what happened to Prophet ELISHA: he attained EVERLASTING LIFE- but did not dot his every "i," nor cross all his "t"s. So he died- with his corpse still retaining enough power to raise another person from the dead.

There was a lady named CAROL TIGGS, who had been facing that fate, when a cunning Sorcerer relieved her of that Power.

WHATEVER YOU HAVE BEEN TOLD ABOUT TO SAY ABOUT THE CHRISTIAN RELIGION IS UNIMPORTANT: HOW YOU REACT TO WHAT I AM TELLING YOU NOW IS WHAT WILL DETERMINE YOUR ETERNAL DESTINY!

. EPISTLE OF BARNABAS 9:1-20.

BUT why did Moses say

"YE SHALL NOT EAT
OF THE SWINE,
NEITHER THE EAGLE
NOR THE HAWK;
NOR THE CROW;
NOR ANY FISH THAT HAS NOT
A SCALE UPON HIM?"



answer, that in the spiritual sense,
he comprehended three doctrines,
that were to be gathered from thence.

2. Besides which he says to them
in the Book of Deuteronomy,

"AND I WILL GIVE MY STATUTES
UNTO THIS PEOPLE."


Wherefore it is not
the Command of God
that they should
not eat these things;
but Moses in The Spirit
spake unto them.

3. Now the sow
he forbade them to eat;
meaning thus much;

Thou shalt not join thyself
to such persons as are
like unto swine;
who whilst they live in pleasure,
forget their God;
but when any want pinches them,
then they know The LORD;
as the sow when she is full
knows not her master;
but when she is hungry
she makes a noise;
and being again fed,
is silent.

4. "NEITHER," says He,
"SHALT THOU EAT THE EAGLE,
NOR THE HAWK,
NOR THE KITE,
NOR THE CROW;"


that is thou shalt not
keep company with
such kind of men as know not
how by their labour and sweat
to get themselves food:
but injuriously ravish away
the things of others;
and watch how,
to lay snares for them;
when at the same time
they appear to live
in perfect innocence.

5. [So these birds alone seek not
food for themselves, but]
sitting idle seek how
they may eat of the flesh
others have provided;
being destructive
through their wickedness.

6. "NEITHER," says He,
"SHALT THOU EAT THE LAMPREY,
NOR THE POLYPUS,
NOR THE CUTTLE-FISH;"


That is, thou shalt not
be like such men,
by using to converse with them;
who are altogether wicked
and adjudged to death.
For so those Fishes
are alone accursed,
and wallow in the mire,
nor swim as other fishes,
but tumble in the dirt
at the bottom of the deep.

7. "BUT" He adds,
"NEITHER SHALT THOU
EAT OF THE HARE."


To what end?—To signify
this to us;

"THOU SHALT NOT
BE AN ADULTERER;
NOR LIKEN THYSELF
TO SUCH PERSONS."


For the Hare every year
multiplies the places
of its conception;
and so many years as it lives,
so many it has.

8. "NEITHER SHALT THOU
EAT OF THE HYENA;"


That is, again,
be not an Adulterer,
nor a corruptor of others;
neither be like to such.
And wherefore so?

Because that creature
every year changes its kind,
and is sometimes male
and sometimes female.

9. For which cause
also he justly hated the Weasel;
to the end that they should
not be like such persons
who with their mouths
commit wickedness
by reason of their uncleanness;
nor join themselves
with those impure women,
who with their mouths
commit wickedness.
Because that animal
conceives with its mouth.

10. Moses, therefore,
speaking as concerning meats,
delivered indeed
three great precepts to them
in the spiritual signification
of those commands.
But they according to
the desires of the flesh,
understood him as if
he had only meant it of meats.

11. And therefore David took aright
The Knowledge of
His threefold Command,
saying in like manner.

12. "BLESSED IS THE MAN
THAT HATH NOT WALKED
IN THE COUNSEL
OF THE UNGODLY;"


as the Fishes before mentioned
in the bottom of the deep in Darkness.

13. "NOR STOOD
IN THE WAY OF SINNERS,"


as they who seem
to fear The LORD,
but yet Sin,
as the Sow.

14. "AND HATH NOT SAT
IN THE SEAT
OF THE SCORNERS;"


as those Birds who sit
and watch that they may devour.

15. Here you have The Law
concerning meat
perfectly set forth,
and according to
The True Knowledge of it.

16. "BUT," says Moses,
"YE SHALL EAT ALL
THAT DIVIDETH THE HOOF,
AND CHEWETH THE CUD."


Signifying thereby
such an one as
having taken his food,
knows Him that nourisheth him;
and resting upon Him,
rejoiceth in Him.

17. And in this he spake well,
having respect
to The Commandment.
What, therefore, is it that he says?
—That we should hold fast to them
that fear The Lord;
with those who Meditate
on The Command of the Word
which they have received
in their heart;
with those that declare
The Righteous Judgments
of The LORD,
and keep His Commandments;

18. In short, with those
who know that to Meditate
is a work of pleasure,
and therefore exercise themselves
in the Word of The LORD.

19. But why might they eat
those that clave the hoof?
—Because the Righteous liveth
in this present World;
but his expectation is fixed
upon the other.
See, Brethren,
how admirably Moses
commanded these things.

20. But how should we
thus know all this,
and understand it?
We, therefore,
understanding aright
The Commandments,
speak as The LORD
would have us.
Wherefore He has
circumcised our ears
and our hearts,
that we might
Know these Things.

LAFAYETTE RONALD HUBBARD WAS ALREADY ON THE WAY TO BEING THE GREATEST AUTHOR IN THE HISTORY OF WRITING, BEFORE HE INVENTED THE SCIENTOLOGY RELIGION, FOR WHICH HE HAS 5,000 RECORDED LECTURES, WHICH HE SAID REPRESENTED ABOUT 15% OF HIS SPIRITUAL KNOWLEDGE- AS SUCH, HE WAS A MASTER OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE, PARTICULARLY THE ART OF PARAPHRASING: USING DIFFERENT WORDS TO SAY THE SAME THING.

I suspect that a thorough investigation of his numerous works, under as many as twenty pseudonyms, so that his name would not dominate bookshelves, will uncover the fact that many of his books and short stories were stolen from other works, with the words changed, but keeping the basic meaning.

I learned FAITH from the greatest Full Gospel Pentecostal Teacher of all time, KENNETH ERWIN HAGIN, who, by 1932, singlehandedly relearned the Principles of FAITH, and spontaneously Healed himself of:

(1) A DEFORMED HEART.
(2) A DEFORMED CHEST.
(3) A TERMINAL BLOOD DISEASE

He was not expected to make 16.

He defied Medical Science, and Healed himself- that is to say, received his Healing, after months of meticulous study.

He continued to have numerous Visions, including Angelic Visitations, Ascension into Heaven, and the physical appearance of JESUS OF NAZARETH (in form of the Ghost of CESARE BORGIA, naturally).

Whatever the authenticity or not of his Spiritual Experiences, he was the only teacher of BIBLICAL MEDITATION Technique I have ever seen.

oaroloye:


. JOSHUA 1:8.

8. "This Book of The Law
shall not depart
out of thy mouth
but thou shalt meditate
therein day and night,
that thou mayest do
according to all
that is written therein:
for then thou shalt
make thy way prosperous,
and then thou shalt have
Good Success."

. PSALM 1:1-6.

BLESSED is the man
that walketh not
in The Counsel of the Ungodly,
nor standeth in the Way of Sinners,
nor sitteth in the Seat of the Scornful.
2. But his delight is
in The Law of The LORD;
and in His Law
doth he meditate day and night.
3. And he shall be like a tree
planted by the rivers of water,
that bringeth forth his fruit
in his season;
his leaf also shall not wither;
and whatsoever he doeth
shall prosper.
4. The Ungodly are not so:
but are like the chaff
which the wind driveth away.
5.Therefore the Ungodly
shall not stand
in The Judgment,
nor Sinners
in The Congregation
of The Righteous.
6. For The LORD knoweth
The Way of the Righteous:
but the Way of the Ungodly
shall Perish.

. PSALM 119:97-105.

97. O how I love Thy Law!
It is my meditation all the day.
98. Thou through Thy Commandments
hast made me Wiser
than mine enemies:
for They are ever with me.
99 I have more Understanding
than all my teachers:
for Thy Testimonies
are my meditation.
100. I understand
more than the Ancients,
because I keep Thy Precepts.
101. I have refrained my feet
from every Evil Way,
that I might keep Thy Word.
102. I have not departed
from Thy Judgments:
for Thou hast taught me.
103. How sweet are Thy Words
unto my taste!
yea, sweeter than honey
to my mouth!
104. Through Thy Precepts
I get Understanding:
therefore I hate every False Way.
105. Thy Word is a Lamp
unto my feet,
and a Light unto my path.


OYINBOS IN GENERAL AND WHITE ANGLO-SAXON PROTESTANT AMERICANS IN PARTICULAR, ALL HATE ONE OTHER, SUCH THAT, IF ONE HAS AN IDEA, AND ANOTHER MAN PROFITS FROM ITS APPLICATION, THE ORIGINATOR OF THE IDEA WILL DEMAND, EVEN THE LION'S SHARE OF THE PROFITS FROM THAT IDEA

By Rights, ARTHUR C. CLARKE should have died as a (buggering) billionaire, because he invented the Communications Satellite in 1945, Cable TV in 1960, Buckminster Fullerene and the Space Elevator by 1979.

[See: I REMEMBER BABYLON, by Arthur C. Clarke (1960).
FOUNTAINS OF PARADISE, by Arthur C. Clarke (1979).]

He did not profit (so much) from his ideas, because he could not practicalize them. He did not simply imagine that it might be possible to do those SCI-FI things: a qualified Scientist, he proved Mathematically that they were possible.

KENNETH E. HAGIN'S WORK ON BIBLICAL MEDITATION DESERVES SIMILAR ACCLAIM- IT WAS LIKE HE INVENTED THE PENCIL!

However, no one else recognized his discovery, because that would have made him eligible to dictate to them what part of their profits they could keep.

Before anyone feels sorry for Kenneth E. Hagin, let me tell you that he was a very wicked man, who not only stole from ESSEK WILLIAM KENYON, without giving him credit- but participated in the suppression of the FASTING Technique of FRANKLIN HALL.

He even went so far as to publish a book in which he condemned people who Fasted a long time, told others that they had done so, and urged others to do so.

[See: A COMMONSENSE GUIDE TO FASTING, by Kenneth E. Hagin (1981).]

He boasted that he only Fasted three days before in his life, because he had always gotten whatever he prayed for, by three days of Fasting.

Revivalist CHARLES G. FINNEY said that LYING is ANY SPECIES OF DESIGNED DECEPTION. Kenneth Hagin was deceiving his followers to think that his Prayers werw always answered, and that when he laid hands on people, they were always Healed.

When he tried to build his Bible College, RHEMA, by "FAITH ALONE," he failed, and had to secretly borrow money to finish some stage of the project, or else forfeit the land. After having preached that "BORROWING MONEY IS A SIN!"

Close friends and relatives such as BETTY (Frederick K.) PRICE and BUDDY HARRISON, his son-in-law, who both came down with Cancer. Whereas FRANKLIN HALL taught that FASTING ALONE will cure Cancer. (Modern Science later "just discovered" that Cancer Cells use 50 times more Glucose than regular cells- whereas 72 hours of Fasting purges all Glucose from the Bloodstream and Muscles that most Cancers depend on.)

People died because Kenneth Hagin withheld Truth.

Yet the most important Biblical Truth was preached by him only: THE MEANING OF THE TERM "TO MEDITATE."

It means, to MUTTER, or to MURMUR.

BIBLICAL MEDITATION therefore consists of taking a small selection of Scriptures, and muttering or murmuring them audibly, hundreds into thousands of times daily.

That is all.

oaroloye:


THE FOUR CATEGORIES OF AWARENESS.

1. ANIMAL AWARENESS: Animals damp down their vibrations to synchronize themselves with their environment, in order to perceive it.

2. THE FIRST ATTENTION: This is the everyday state of awareness of the ordinary, "normal," (i.e. sinful) Human being. All such a person can Perceive, Conceive, and Recall is Physical Universe phenomena, and nothing Spiritual at all.

Only a narrow band of Existence (2%) is selected for recognition, with only 10% of one's Consciousness at most. Life Force in post-adolescence is dwindled to 1%.

This category of Knowledge is called "THE KNOWN."

3. THE SECOND ATTENTION: The First Attention uses no more than 10% of the Mind's Consciousness. Beyond that is THE SECOND ATTENTION.

The least manifestation of SECOND ATTENTION is TOTAL RECALL. It develops into four other capabilities:

1. TOTAL RECALL.
2. EXTRASENSORY PERCEPTION.
3. TELEKINESIS.
4. TELEPORTATION.
5. TRANSLATION.


Developing these capabilities is dangerous, without proper guidance and supervision- WHICH THE GOSPEL PROVIDES.

Without It, the Mind can break down tear itself apart, or go completely insane. It can even kill the person.

THE TORAH does not provide similarly adequate protection.

Blindly "JUST FOLLOWING THE LAW" allows for ASYMMETRICAL JUDGMENTS, which will ultimately destroy one.

The Mind must be PERFECTLY BALANCED, to pull this off. Consciousness goes as high as 100%, and Life Force is maximized to 50%.

This category of Knowledge is called THE UNKNOWN.

4. THE THIRD ATTENTION: TOTAL RECALL permits the complete review of one's entire life in as little as twenty minutes.

Assuming one were, say, twenty years old, that means one would be reviewing, or rather RECAPITULATING, one year of one's life in a MINUTE, and thus ONE MONTH every five seconds.

About SIX DAYS per second.

Therefore, the Mind is able to PROCESS the vast amount of data EXTRASENSORY PERCEPTION grants access to very rapidly.

Some Knowledge is NOT FOR MORTAL CONSUMPTION.

That is not because of CHAUVINISM.

This Knowledge is DEADLY TO MORTAL HUMAN BEINGS- it will literally KILL them, just because they SAW it. Therefore, it is called "THE UNKNOWABLE."

Attaining THIRD ATTENTION allows a person to safely perceive It.

THE FIRE FROM WITHIN, by Carlos Castaneda (1985).]


IT IS HIGHLY IMPORTANT THAT ONE HAVE A SPIRITUALLY-STABILIZED MIND- OR ELSE MEDIATION IN THE SCRIPTURES CAN BRING ABOUT ONE'S SPIRITUAL, MENTAL, BODILY, OR MATERIAL DESTRUCTION!

. MATTHEW 7:12-29.

12. "Therefore all things
whatsoever ye would
that men should do to you,
do ye even so to them:
for this is The Law
and The Prophets.
13. "Enter ye in
at the strait Gate:
for wide is the Gate,
and broad is the Way,
that leadeth to Destruction,
and many there be
which go in thereat:
14. "Because strait is the gate,
and narrow is the Way,
which leadeth unto Life,
and few there be
that find It.
15. Beware of False Prophets,
which come to you
in sheep's clothing,
but inwardly they are
ravening wolves.
16. "Ye shall know them
by their fruits.
Do men gather grapes
of thorns,
or figs of thistles?
17. "Even so every Good Tree
bringeth forth Good Fruit;
but a Corrupt Tree
bringeth forth Evil Fruit.
18. "A Good Tree
cannot bring forth Evil Fruit,
neither can a Corrupt Tree
bring forth Good Fruit.
19. "Every Tree that
bringeth not forth Good Fruit
is hewn down,
and cast into the fire.
20. "Wherefore by their Fruits
ye shall know them.
21. "Not every one
that saith unto me,
'Lord, Lord,' shall enter into
The Kingdom of Heaven;
but he that doeth
The Will of my Father,
Which is in Heaven.
22. "Many will say to me
in That Day,

'LORD, LORD,
HAVE WE NOT
PROPHESIED IN THY NAME?
AND IN THY NAME
HAVE CAST OUT DEVILS?
AND IN THY NAME
DONE MANY
WONDERFUL WORKS?'


23. "And then will I
profess unto them,

'I NEVER KNEW YOU:
DEPART FROM ME,
YE THAT WORK INIQUITY.'


24. "Therefore whosoever
heareth these Sayings of mine,
and doeth them,
I will liken him unto
a Wise man,
which built his house
upon a rock:
25. "And the rain descended,
and the floods came,
and the winds blew,
and beat upon that house;
and it fell not:
for it was founded
upon a rock.
26. "And every one
that heareth these Sayings
of mine,
and doeth them not,
shall be likened unto
a Foolish man,
which built his house
upon the sand:
27. "And the rain descended,
and the floods came,
and the winds blew,
and beat upon that house;
and it fell:
and great was the fall of it."

28. And it came to pass,
when Jesus had ended
these Sayings,
the people were
astonished at his Doctrine:
29. For he Taught them
as (one) having Authority,
and not as the Scribes.

THE WAYS TO FAIL ARE CONSISTENT WITH THE PRINCIPLES OF THE UNCLEAN BEASTS GOD PROSCRIBED BY MOSES.

It should go without saying, that those who have BLASPHEMED The Holy Ghost NEED NOT APPLY!

ONLY THOSE WHO ACHIEVE TOTAL RECALL BY THEIR TIME OF DEATH ARE PERMITTTED TO ENTER THE AFTERLIFE.[i][/i]

As a boy, Kenneth E. Hagin could receive any page of a book he had read only once- this was probably crucial to his Survival, and subsequent Spiritual Experiences.

When anything dies, it is cut open to extract it's Memory Log, if it is unable to provide it in a speedy fashion.

Those who do render it are not destroyed, but allowed to proceed to Heaven, or Paradise, or Hell.

WHICHEVER FAKE AND SHAMEFUL RELIGIOUS GROUP YOU BELONG TO, YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT SPIRITUAL LAW!

It applies on every Level of Existence.

. THE SIX LEVELS OF EXISTENCE.

(1) BELIEFS; (2) THOUGHTS; (3) WORDS;
(4) PHYSICAL ACTIONS;
(5) POSTULATES;
(6) TOTAL UNDERSTANDING.


THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD CONSISTENTLY APPLY ON EVERY LEVEL OF EXISTENCE.

If they are not so applied, the consequences can be fatal.

. MATTHEW 9:16-17.

16. "No man putteth
a piece of new cloth
unto an old garment,
for that which is put in to fill it up
taketh from the garment,
and the rent is made worse.
17. "Neither do men put new wine
into old bottles:
else the bottles break,
and the wine runneth out,
and the bottles perish:
but they put new wine into new bottles,
and both are preserved."

ONE CANNOT AFFORD TO KEEP GOD'S COMMANDMENTS PARTIALLY: THAT WILL DESTROY ONE'S MIND AND NEGATIVELY IMPACT UPON THE BODY, TOO.

Sinners can access The Spiritual Power Spectrum, too.

BUT THE RESULTS FALL SHORT OF TRUE IMMORTALITY: ACCESS OF EVERLASTING LIFE CAN RESULT IN IMMEDIATE OR EVENTUAL DEATH.


. DIANETICS LOGICS 5-12.

1. KNOWLEDGE is a whole group or sub-division of a group
of Data
or speculations or conclusions
on Data or
Methods of gaining Data.

2. A Body of Knowledge
is a Body of Data,
Aligned or Unaligned,
or Methods of gaining Data.

3. Any Knowledge which
can be Sensed,
Measured or Experienced
by any Entity
is capable of influencing
That Entity.

Corollary - that Knowledge which cannot be sensed,
Measured or Experienced
by any Entity or type of Entity
cannot influence that Entity
or type of entity.

4. A Datum is a Facsimile of
States of Being, States of Not-Being,
Actions or Inactions,
Conclusions, or Suppositions
in the Physical or any other Universe.

5. A Definition of Terms is necessary
to the Alignment, Statement
and Resolution of Suppositions,
Observations, Problems and Solutions
and their Communication.

Definition - DESCRIPTIVE DEFINITION: one
which classifies by characteristics,
by describing existing states of Being.

Definition - [/u]DIFFERENTIATIVE DEFINITION:[/u] one
which Compares unlikeness
to existing states of Being or Not-Being.

Definition - ASSOCIATIVE DEFINITION: one
which declares Likeness
to existing states of Being or not Being.

Definition - ACTION DEFINITION: one
which delineates Cause and Potential Change
of State of Being by cause of Existence,
Inexistence, Action, Inaction,
Purpose or Lack of Purpose.

6. Absolutes are unobtainable.

7. Gradient scales are necessary
to the evaluation of Problems and their Data.


This is the tool of infinity-valued logic: Absolutes are Unobtainable. Terms such as Good and Bad, Alive and Dead, Right and Wrong are used only in conjunction with Gradient Scales. On the scale of Right and Wrong, everything above Zero or Center would be more and more right, approaching an infinite rightness, and everything below Center would be more and more wrong, approaching Infinite
Wrongness. All things assisting the survival of the survivor are considered to be Right for the Survivor. All things inhibiting Survival from the viewpoint of the Survivor can be considered wrong for the Survivor. The more a thing assists Survival, the more it can be considered right for the Survivor; the more a thing or action inhibits Survival, the more it is wrong from the viewpoint of the Intended Survivor.

Corollary - Any Datum has only Relative Truth.
Corollary - Truth is relative to Environments, Experience and Truth.

8. A Datum can be evaluated only by a Datum of
Comparable Magnitude.

9. A Datum is as valuable as it has been Evaluated.

10. The value of a datum is established by the amount of
Alignment [relationship] it imparts to other data.

11. The value of a Datum or Field of Data
can be established by its Degree of Assistance in Survival
or its Inhibition to Survival.

12. The value of a Datum or a Field of Data is modified
by the Viewpoint of the Observer.

The Gospel of Lord Yeshua does not say that there is only one Way into Heaven.

That is a mad Oyinbo Interpretation of The Gospel.


.    MATTHEW 22:1-14.

AND Jesus Answered
and Spake unto them again
by Parables,
and Said,

2. "The Kingdom of Heaven
is like unto a certain king,
which made a marriage
for his son,
3. "And sent forth his servants
to call them that were bidden
to the wedding:
and they would not come.
4. "Again, he sent forth
other servants,
saying,

'TELL THEM
WHICH ARE BIDDEN,


"BEHOLD,
I HAVE PREPARED MY DINNER:
MY OXEN AND MY FATLINGS
ARE KILLED,
AND ALL THINGS ARE READY:
COME UNTO THE MARRIAGE." '


5. "But they made light of it,
and went their ways,
one to his farm,
another to his merchandise:
6. "And the remnant
took his servants,
and entreated them spitefully,
and slew them.
7. "But when the king heard thereof,
he was wroth:
and he sent forth his armies,
and destroyed those murderers,
and burned up their city.
8. Then saith he to his servants,

'THE WEDDING IS READY,
BUT THEY WHICH WERE BIDDEN
WERE NOT WORTHY.
9. 'GO YE THEREFORE
INTO THE HIGHWAYS,
AND AS MANY
AS YE SHALL FIND,
BID TO THE MARRIAGE.'


10. "So those servants
went out
into the highways,
and gathered together all
as many as they found,
both bad and good:
and the wedding
was furnished with guests.
11. "And when the king
came in
to see the guests,
he saw there a man
which had not on
a wedding garment:
12. "And he saith unto him,

'FRIEND,
HOW CAMEST THOU
IN HITHER NOT HAVING
A WEDDING GARMENT?'


And he was speechless.
13. "Then said the king
to the servants,

'BIND HIM
HAND AND FOOT,
AND CAST HIM
INTO OUTER DARKNESS,
THERE SHALL BE WEEPING
AND GNASHING OF TEETH.
14. 'FOR MANY ARE CALLED
BUT FEW (ARE) CHOSEN.'


Lord Yeshua warned that one can reach Heaven without an unauthorized attire- implying unclothedness or wrong dress.

. ISAIAH 64:6

6. But we are all
as an unclean thing,
and all our Righteousnesses
are as Filthy Rags;
and we all do fade as a leaf;
and our iniquities,
like the wind,
have taken us away.

THE OYINBO ROMAN CATHOLIC AND PROTESTANT EVANGELICAL CHURCHES ARE BASED ON COLONIAL IMPERIALISM- THEY FALSIFIED, TWISTED ,AND DENIED SOUND SCRIPTURAL DOCTRINE TO JUSTIFY INVASION, THEFT, MURDER, AND DESTRUCTION.

These deliberate acts tainted their Religion, and affect their relationship with God.

. LUKE 12:1-12.

IN the mean time,
when there were gathered together
an innumerable multitude of people,
insomuch that they trode
one upon another,
he began to Say
unto his Disciples
first of all,

"Beware ye of the Leaven
of the Pharisees,
which is Hypocrisy.
2. "For there is nothing covered,
that shall not be revealed;
neither hid,
that shall not be known.
3. "Therefore whatsoever
ye have spoken in Darkness
shall be heard in the Light;
and that which ye have
spoken in the ear in closets
shall be proclaimed
upon the housetops.
4. "And I Say unto you
my Friends,

'BE NOT AFRAID OF THEM
THAT KILL THE BODY,
AND AFTER THAT
HAVE NO MORE
THAT THEY CAN DO.'


5. "But I will forewarn you
Whom ye shall fear:

'FEAR HIM,
WHICH AFTER HE HATH KILLED
HATH POWER
TO CAST INTO HELL;'


yea, I Say unto you,

'FEAR HIM.' "

6. "Are not five sparrows

and not one of them
is forgotten before God?

'WHOSOEVER SHALL
CONFESS ME
BEFORE MEN,
HIM SHALL THE SON OF MAN
ALSO CONFESS BEFORE
THE ANGELS OF GOD:
9. 'BUT HE THAT DENIETH ME
BEFORE MEN

shall speak a word
against The Son of Man,
it shall be forgiven him:

unto the synagogues,

shall Teach you
in the same hour
what ye ought to say."

BILLY GRAHAM SAYS JESUS IS NOT THE ONLY WAY.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4MZWug3QAvs (9:51 mins.)


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2cTr34ZnGG0 (4:19 mins.)

After meeting Religious and Spiritual people from around the World, who were better than him, BILLY GRAHAM totally denied The Gospel that he had been deceiving the World with for more than fifty years, and said that he now realized that Jesus Christ was not the only way to Heaven.

Whereas he had never seen what happens to people's Souls when they die.

He had never been to Heaven to see who was there, and who wasn't.

He sold his Salvation based on THEORIES.

THE OYINBO ATHEIST MOVEMENT SWEARS UP AND DOWN THAT THERE IS NO EVIDENCE OF THE EXISTENCE OF GOD, SUPERNATURAL SPIRITUAL BEINGS, NOR SUPERNATURAL SPIRITUAL POWERS.

To tell them that this is because of the wicked acts of their forefathers is a 30-day banning offense on FACEBOOK.

They do not want to hear that.

These are the people you, the OP, WORK for. So long as you do so, you will never understand the importance of Tithing.

While researching SHLOMO SAND, author of THE INVENTION OF THE JEWISH PEOPLE (2008), an important book purportedly proving that the "JEWS" are not descendants of the Hebrews Y'sraelites of The Bible, I learned that after his father died, his mother was denied a Front Seat at the Synagogue.

This was interesting trivia enough, but the Wikipedia entry states that their family could not afford a front seat.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shlomo_Sand

This shocked me, because I had no idea that the Jews paid for seats at the Synagogues!

https://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-3445554,00.html

This casts light on Lord Yeshua's famous tirade against the Scribes and Pharisees:

. MATTHEW 23:1-15.

THEN Spake Jesus to the multitude,
and to his Disciples,

2. Saying,
"The scribes and the Pharisees
sit in Moses' seat:
3. "All therefore whatsoever
they bid you observe,
that observe and do;
but do not ye
after their works:
for they say, and do not.
4. "For they bind heavy burdens
and grievous to be borne,
and lay them on men's shoulders;
but they themselves
will not move them
with one of their fingers.
5. "But all their works
they do for to be seen of men:
they make broad their phylacteries,
and enlarge the borders
of their garments,
6. "And love the Uppermost Rooms
at feasts,
and the Chief Seats in the Synagogues,
7. "And greetings in the markets,
and to be called of men, 'Rabbi, Rabbi.'
8. "But be not ye called 'Rabbi:'
for one is your Master, even Christ;
and all ye are Brethren.
9. "And call no man your father
upon the Earth:
for one is your Father,
Which is in Heaven.
10. "Neither be ye called masters:
for one is your Master,
even Christ.
11. "But he that is greatest among you
shall be your servant.
12. "And whosoever shall exalt himself
shall be abased;
and he that shall humble himself
shall be exalted.
13. "But woe unto you,
scribes and Pharisees,
Hypocrites!
for ye shut up
The Kingdom of Heaven
against men:
for ye neither go in yourselves,
neither suffer ye them
that are entering to go in.
14. "Woe unto you,
scribes and Pharisees,
Hypocrites!
For ye devour widows' houses,
and for a pretence
make long prayer:
therefore ye shall receive
The Greater Damnation.
15. "Woe unto you,
scribes and Pharisees,
Hypocrites!
for ye compass Sea and Land
to make one proselyte,
and when he is made,
ye make him
twofold more
The Child of Hell
than yourselves."

YACUB ben YESHUA'S SANCTIMONIOUS DENUNCIATION OF PARTIALITY TOWARD THE RICH AND AGAINST THE POOR IN CHURCH MEETINGS MAKES MORE SENSE.

. JAMES 2:1-13.

"MY Brethren,
have not The Faith
of our Lord Jesus Christ,
The Lord of Glory,
with respect of persons.
2. For if there come
unto your assembly
a man with a gold ring,
in goodly apparel,
and there come in also
a poor man in vile raiment;
3. And ye have respect
to him that weareth
the gay clothing,
and say unto him,

"SIT THOU HERE
IN A GOOD PLACE;


and say to the Poor,

"STAND THOU THERE,
OR SIT HERE
UNDER MY FOOTSTOOL:"


4. "Are ye not then
partial in yourselves,
and are become
Judges of Evil Thoughts?
5. Hearken,
my Beloved Brethren,
Hath not God chosen
the Poor of this World
Rich in Faith,
and Heirs of The Kingdom
Which He hath Promised
to them that love Him?
6. But ye have
despised the Poor.
Do not Rich men oppress you,
and draw you
before the Judgment Seats?
7. Do not they
blaspheme That Worthy Name
by the which ye are called?
8. If ye fulfil The Royal Law
according to the Scripture,

"THOU SHALT
LOVE THY NEIGHBOUR
AS THYSELF,"


ye do well:
9. But if ye have
Respect to Persons,
ye commit Sin,
and are convinced
of The Law as Transgressors.
10. For whosoever
shall keep the whole law,
and yet offend in one point,
he is guilty of all.
11. For He that Said,

"DO NOT
COMMIT ADULTERY,"


said also,

"DO NOT KILL."

Now if thou commit
no Adultery,
yet if thou Kill,
thou art become
a Transgressor of The Law.
12. So speak ye,
and so do,
as they that shall be Judged
by The Law of Liberty.
13. For he shall have
Judgment without Mercy,
that hath shewed no Mercy;
and Mercy rejoiceth
against Judgment.

YACUB WAS A HORRIBLE HYPOCRITE, WHO SPEARHEADED THE APOSTOLIC RESOLUTION TO BAN GENTILE CHRISTIANS FROM LEARNING THE LAW OF MOSES- WHICH WAS TANTAMOUNT TO BANNING THEM FROM READING THE BIBLE.

It was KENNETH COPELAND'S Testimony of how God told ORAL ROBERTS that the way to know Jesus was to read THE GOSPELS AND BOOK OF ACTS that opened my eyes to the fact that THE APOSTLES NEVER PREACHED THE GOSPEL.

They merely made up stuff and nonsense, and pretended that it was The Gospel Lord Yeshua sent them to preach.

I should like to see how giving preferential treatment to those contributing more to The Church than others is wrong.

In the Synagogue, the seats nearest to the ADAMI, or Master, cost more than others more remote.

. LUKE 14:7-11.

7. And he put forth a Parable
to those which were bidden,
when he marked how
they chose out
the chief rooms;
saying unto them,

8. "When thou art
bidden of any man
to a wedding,
sit not down
in the highest room;
lest a more honourable man
than thou be bidden of him;
9. "And he that bade
thee and him
come and say to thee,

'GIVE THIS MAN PLACE;'

and thou begin with shame
to take the lowest room.
10. "But when thou art bidden,
go and sit down
in the lowest room;
that when he
that bade thee cometh,
he may say unto thee,

'FRIEND,
GO UP HIGHER:'


then shalt thou have worship
in the presence of them
that sit at meat with thee.
11. "For whosoever
exalteth himself
shall be abased;
and he that
humbleth himself
shall be exalted."
Re: What Does God Need Your Tithe For? by oaroloye(m): 3:31pm On Dec 19, 2021
YACUB WAS ALSO LYING WHEN HE FLATTERED THE LAW OF MOSES- WHOSE BANNING HE CALLED FOR- AND THEN TURNED AROUND TO SAY THAT IF ANYONE BROKE ANY PART OF IT, THEY WERE GUILTY OF ALL OF IT!

It does not follow!

Death is the penalty for IDOLATRY, BLASPHEMY, SABBATH-BREAKING, PARENT-DISHONOURING, MURDER, and ADULTERY, but not necessarily for THEFT, FALSE WITNESSING, nor COVETOUSNESS.

If the whole Law is broken, wouldn't the punishments be uniform?

YACUB knew that he was dealing with people who didn't understand The Law, so he could tell them any lie he wanted.

4. TELEPORTATION.
5. TRANSLATION.
6-10. EVERLASTING LIFE.


THIS IS THE COMPLETE SPECTRUM OF SPIRITUAL POWERS.

SCIENTOLOGY should have been the easiest way to attain EVERLASTING LIFE, but it simply isn't.

Too much has been removed.

I believe that their abilities stop at TELEPORTATION.

Whereas, if Christians applied the same techniques L. Ron Hubbard taught them, the Christianity Lord Yeshua taught would easily be theirs- because they belong to us.

THE ORIGINAL TITHE IS 10%, CONSISTENT WITH THE NOVICE PERSON-OF-GOD SERVING GOD WITH ONLY 10% OF THEIR MIND.

If God has given us more, we are indebted more.

.    THE TEN TALENTS OF POWER.    (Matthew 25:1-46.)

1. TOTAL RECALL                          = 10%.
2. EXTRASENSORY PERCEPTION     =20%.
3. TELEKINESIS                                   =30%.
4. TELEPORTATION                           =40%.
5. TRANSLATION                               =50%.
6-10. EVERLASTING LIFE                  =100%.


IF A PERSON ATTAINED EVERLASTING LIFE, I THINK THEY WOULD BE QUITE HAPPY TO PAY TITHES OF 100% OF THEIR SUBSTANCE.

.    LUKE 7:36-50.

36. And one of the Pharisees
desired him
that he would eat with him.
And he went into
the Pharisee's house,
and sat down to meat.
37. And, behold,
a woman in the city,
which was a Sinner,
when she knew that Jesus
sat at meat
in the Pharisee's house,
brought an alabaster box
of ointment,
38. And stood at his feet
behind him weeping,
and began to wash his feet
with tears,
and did wipe them
with the hairs of her head,
and kissed his feet,
and anointed them
with the ointment.
39. Now when the Pharisee
which had bidden him saw it,
he spake within himself,
saying,

"This man,
if he were a Prophet,
would have known who
and what manner of woman this is
that toucheth him:
for she is a Sinner."

40. And Jesus Answering
Said unto him,

"Simon,
I have somewhat
to say unto thee."

And he saith,

"Master, say on."

41. There was a certain creditor
which had two debtors:
the one owed five hundred pence,
and the other fifty.
42. And when they had
nothing to pay,
he frankly forgave them both.
Tell me therefore,
which of them
will love him most?”

43. Simon answered and said,

"I suppose that he,
to whom he forgave most."

And he Said unto him,

"Thou hast rightly judged."

44. And he turned to the woman,
and said unto Simon,

"Seest thou this woman?
I entered into thine house,
thou gavest me
no water for my feet:
but she hath washed my feet
with tears,
and wiped them
with the hairs of her head.
45. “Thou gavest me no kiss:
but this woman
since the time I came in
hath not ceased to kiss my feet.
46. "My head with oil
thou didst not anoint:
but this woman
hath anointed my feet
with ointment.
47. "Wherefore I Say unto thee,

'HER SINS,
WHICH ARE MANY,
ARE FORGIVEN;
FOR SHE LOVED MUCH:'
BUT TO WHOM LITTLE IS FORGIVEN,
THE SAME LOVETH LITTLE.' "


48. And he said unto her,

"Thy Sins are forgiven."

49. And they that
sat at meat with him
began to say
within themselves,

"Who is this that
forgiveth Sins also?"

50. And he said to the woman,

"Thy Faith hath Saved thee;
go in Peace."


NONE OF THESE POINTS HAS ANY VALUE TO YOU, BECAUSE YOU HATE THE LORD, AND YOU HATE THOSE WHO RECEIVE MONEY IN HIS NAME, TO FURTHER HIS NAME.

. MARK 9:38-50.

38. And John answered him,
saying,

"Master,
we saw one
casting out Devils
in thy Name,
and he followeth not us:
and we forbad him,
because he followeth not us."

39. But Jesus Said,

"Forbid him not:
for there is no man
which shall do a miracle
in my Name,
that can lightly speak evil of me.
40. "For he that is not against us
is on our part.
41. "For whosoever shall give you
a cup of water to drink
in my Name,
because ye belong to Christ,
verily I Say unto you,

HE SHALL NOT
LOSE HIS REWARD.


42. And whosoever shall offend
one of these little ones
that believe in me,
it is better for him
that a millstone were
hanged about his neck,
and he were cast into the Sea.
43. "And if thy hand offend thee,
cut it off:
it is better for thee
to enter into Life maimed,
than having two hands
to go into Hell,
into The Fire
that never shall be quenched:
44. "Where their worm dieth not,
and The Fire is not quenched.
45. "And if thy foot offend thee,
cut it off:
it is better for thee
to enter halt into Life,
than having two feet
to be cast into Hell,
into The Fire
that never shall be quenched:
46. "Where their worm dieth not,
and The Fire is not quenched.
47. "And if thine eye offend thee,
pluck it out:
it is better for thee
to enter into
The Kingdom of God
with one eye,
than having two eyes
to be cast into Hell Fire:
48. "Where their worm dieth not,
and The Fire is not quenched.
49. "For every one
shall be salted with fire,
and every sacrifice
shall be salted with salt.
50. "Salt is good:
but if the salt have lost his saltness,
wherewith will ye season it?
Have salt in yourselves,
and have peace one with another."

I COUNSEL YOU TO CUT OFF YOUR HATRED, BEFORE YOU LOSE YOUR LIFE AND YOUR SOUL!

Not that I expect you to listen.

You think you can judge.

. MATTHEW 7:1-6.

“JUDGE not,
that ye be not judged.
2. "For with what judgment
ye judge,
ye shall be judged;
and with what measure
ye mete,
it shall be measured
to you again.
3. "And why beholdest
thou the mote
that is in thy brother's eye,
but considerest not the beam
that is in thine own eye?
4. "Or how wilt thou say
to thy brother,

'LET ME PULL OUT
THE MOTE
OUT OF THINE EYE;'


and, behold,
a beam is in thine own eye?
5. "Thou Hypocrite,
first cast out the beam
out of thine own eye;
and then shalt thou see clearly
to cast out the mote
out of thy brother's eye.
6. "Give not that which is holy
unto the dogs,
neither cast ye your pearls
before swine,
lest they trample them
under their feet,
and turn again
and rend you."

THERE ARE FOUR MODES OF AWARENESS: ANIMAL AWARENESS; THE FIRST ATTENTION; THE SECOND ATTENTION; AND THE THIRD ATTENTION.

oaroloye:


THE FOUR CATEGORIES OF AWARENESS.

1. ANIMAL AWARENESS: Animals damp down their vibrations to synchronize themselves with their environment, in order to perceive it.

2. THE FIRST ATTENTION: This is the everyday state of awareness of the ordinary, "normal," (i.e. sinful) Human being. All such a person can Perceive, Conceive, and Recall is Physical Universe phenomena, and nothing Spiritual at all.

Only a narrow band of Existence (2%) is selected for recognition, with only 10% of one's Consciousness at most. Life Force in post-adolescence is dwindled to 1%.

This category of Knowledge is called "THE KNOWN."

3. THE SECOND ATTENTION: The First Attention uses no more than 10% of the Mind's Consciousness. Beyond that is THE SECOND ATTENTION.

The least manifestation of SECOND ATTENTION is TOTAL RECALL. It develops into four other capabilities:

1. TOTAL RECALL.
2. EXTRASENSORY PERCEPTION.
3. TELEKINESIS.
4. TELEPORTATION.
5. TRANSLATION.


Developing these capabilities is dangerous, without proper guidance and supervision- WHICH THE GOSPEL PROVIDES.

Without It, the Mind can break down tear itself apart, or go completely insane. It can even kill the person.

THE TORAH does not provide similarly adequate protection.

Blindly "JUST FOLLOWING THE LAW" allows for ASYMMETRICAL JUDGMENTS, which will ultimately destroy one.

The Mind must be PERFECTLY BALANCED, to pull this off. Consciousness goes as high as 100%, and Life Force is maximized to 50%.

This category of Knowledge is called THE UNKNOWN.

4. THE THIRD ATTENTION: TOTAL RECALL permits the complete review of one's entire life in as little as twenty minutes.

Assuming one were, say, twenty years old, that means one would be reviewing, or rather RECAPITULATING, one year of one's life in a MINUTE, and thus ONE MONTH every five seconds.

About SIX DAYS per second.

Therefore, the Mind is able to PROCESS the vast amount of data EXTRASENSORY PERCEPTION grants access to very rapidly.

Some Knowledge is NOT FOR MORTAL CONSUMPTION.

That is not because of CHAUVINISM.

This Knowledge is DEADLY TO MORTAL HUMAN BEINGS- it will literally KILL them, just because they SAW it. Therefore, it is called "THE UNKNOWABLE."

Attaining THIRD ATTENTION allows a person to safely perceive It.

[See: THE EAGLE'S GIFT, by Carlos Castaneda (1981).
THE FIRE FROM WITHIN, by Carlos Castaneda (1985).]


SPIRITUAL POWER CAN ONLY BE USED IN THE SECOND AND THIRD ATTENTIONS: THAT INCLUDES THE BLESSING OF TITHING.



. EXODUS 20:1-7.

AND God Spake
all these Words,
Saying,

2. "I am The LORD thy God,
Which have brought thee
out of The Land of Egypt,
out of The House of Bondage.
3. "Thou shalt have
no other gods before Me.

4. "Thou shalt not
make unto thee
any graven image,
or any likeness of any thing
that is in Heaven above,
or that is in the Earth beneath,
or that is in the Water
under the Earth.
5. "Thou shalt not
bow down thyself to them,
nor serve them:
for I the LORD thy God
am a jealous God,
visiting the iniquity
of the Fathers
upon the Children
unto the Third
and Fourth Generation
of them that hate Me;
6. "And shewing Mercy
unto thousands of them
that love Me,
and keep My Commandments.

7. "Thou shalt not
take The Name
of the LORD thy God in vain;
for the LORD will not
hold him guiltless
that taketh His Name
in vain."

ALL HUMANS BORN ARE ACCOUNTABLE TO GOD FOR THE INIQUITIES OF THEIR PARENTS, THEIR GRANDPARENTS, AND THEIR GREAT-GRANDPARENTS.

. DEUTERONOMY 6:1-9.

NOW these are
The Commandments,
The Statutes,
and The Judgments,
Which The LORD your God
Commanded to teach you,
that ye might do them
in the land whither ye go
to possess It:
2. That thou mightest
fear The LORD thy God,
to keep all His Statutes
and His Commandments,
Which I Command thee,
thou, and thy son,
and thy son's son,
all the days of thy life;
and that thy days
may be prolonged.
3. Hear therefore,
O Israel,
and observe to do (It);
that it may be well with thee,
and that ye may
increase mightily,
as the LORD God of thy fathers
hath promised thee,
in the land that floweth
with milk and honey.
4. Hear, O Israel:
The LORD our God
is one LORD:
5. And thou shalt love
The LORD thy God
with all thine Heart,
and with all thy Soul,
and with all thy might.
6. And these Words,
which I Command thee
this day,
shall be in thine heart:
7. And thou shalt teach Them
diligently unto thy children,
and shalt talk of Them
when thou sittest
in thine house,
and when thou walkest
by the way,
and when thou liest down,
and when thou risest up.
8. And thou shalt bind Them
for a sign upon thine hand,
and they shall be as frontlets
between thine eyes.
9. And thou shalt write Them
upon the posts of thy house,
and on thy gates.

. DEUTERONOMY 8:1-6.

ALL The Commandments
Which I Command thee
this day
shall ye observe to do,
that ye may live,
and multiply,
and go in and possess the land
which The LORD Sware
unto your Fathers.
2. And thou shalt remember
all the Way which The LORD
thy God led thee these forty years
in the wilderness,
to humble thee,
and to prove thee,
to know what was in thine heart,
whether thou wouldest
keep His Commandments,
or no.
3. And He humbled thee,
and suffered thee to hunger,
and fed thee with Manna,
which thou knewest not,
neither did thy fathers know;
that He might
make thee know that

"MAN DOTH NOT
LIVE BY BREAD ONLY
BUT BY EVERY (WORD)
THAT PROCEEDETH
OUT OF THE MOUTH
OF THE LORD
DOTH MAN LIVE."


4. Thy raiment waxed not
old upon thee,
neither did thy foot swell,
these forty years.
5. Thou shalt also consider
in thine heart,

"THAT, AS A MAN
CHASTENETH HIS SON,
SO THE LORD THY GOD
CHASTENETH THEE."[i]


6. Therefore thou shalt keep
The Commandments of
The LORD thy God,
to walk in His Ways,
and to fear Him.

PARENTS HAVE ONLY ONE JOB- [i]THAT IS TO TEACH THEIR CHILDREN THE WAY OF GOD-
RECEIVING THE SEVEN SPIRITS OF GOD BETWEEN THE AGES OF 13 THROUGH 20.

Daughters who failed to achieve SINLESSNESS by age 20 could be sold into Slavery or Marriage, but SONS were to be summarily executed.

The Parents of Y'srael had not been doing their job, that is why the Prophets all ultimately failed, and why Lord Yeshua had to be sent.


EVERYTHING DEPENDS UPON TOTAL RECALL.

oaroloye:


. JOSHUA 1:8.

8. "This Book of The Law
shall not depart
out of thy mouth
but thou shalt meditate
therein day and night,
that thou mayest do
according to all
that is written therein:
for then thou shalt
make thy way prosperous,
and then thou shalt have
Good Success."

. PSALM 1:1-6.

BLESSED is the man
that walketh not
in The Counsel of the Ungodly,
nor standeth in the Way of Sinners,
nor sitteth in the Seat of the Scornful.
2. But his delight is
in The Law of The LORD;
and in His Law
doth he meditate day and night.
3. And he shall be like a tree
planted by the rivers of water,
that bringeth forth his fruit
in his season;
his leaf also shall not wither;
and whatsoever he doeth
shall prosper.
4. The Ungodly are not so:
but are like the chaff
which the wind driveth away.
5.Therefore the Ungodly
shall not stand
in The Judgment,
nor Sinners
in The Congregation
of The Righteous.
6. For The LORD knoweth
The Way of the Righteous:
but the Way of the Ungodly
shall Perish.

. PSALM 119:97-105.

97. O how I love Thy Law!
It is my meditation all the day.
98. Thou through Thy Commandments
hast made me Wiser
than mine enemies:
for They are ever with me.
99 I have more Understanding
than all my teachers:
for Thy Testimonies
are my meditation.
100. I understand
more than the Ancients,
because I keep Thy Precepts.
101. I have refrained my feet
from every Evil Way,
that I might keep Thy Word.
102. I have not departed
from Thy Judgments:
for Thou hast taught me.
103. How sweet are Thy Words
unto my taste!
yea, sweeter than honey
to my mouth!
104. Through Thy Precepts
I get Understanding:
therefore I hate every False Way.
105. Thy Word is a Lamp
unto my feet,
and a Light unto my path.



THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT POWER ON EARTH, WHICH NONE OF YOU KNEW ANYTHING ABOUT, UNTIL I EXPLAINED IT TO YOU.

Yet you have disrespected God's Messenger, and disparaged His Word, dooming your Souls for all Eternity.

Just like that.

For some shortsighted, narrowminded reward- some pocket change, and a cynical "well-done!" from people who never cared about your Souls.

There is no other way to Salvation than what I have told you.

You can see for yourselves that those you have followed blindly have no plan to Save themselves from the AntiChrist: they have no plan to Save you.

So what is it that you think you are deriding?

Virtually infinite wealth could have been yours, should you have respected Lord Yeshua's simple instruction on TITHING.

Now, you will inherit nothing, but Eternal Damnation.

Re: What Does God Need Your Tithe For? by DZTech: 6:00pm On Dec 30, 2021
For 2000 years, Christians have ensured the development of Nations-
Without a single one of them paying tithes in church.

But Nigerian pastors have tied the ignorant Christians' destinies to tithes-
And we're now the poverty capital of the world.
Truly, Divine wisdom is far from us.
...

Ah, the Spirit of God isn't enough for you, it's tithes God needs from you to supplement His Holy Spirit.
I see...
oaroloye:


(11) THE TITHE IS AN INVESTMENT THAT ASSURES AND CONSOLIDATES THE CONTINUAL BLESSINGS OF GOD!


Your insult is duly noted.
At least when your words condemn you, you won't have me to blame. cool

I DEPEND ON LORD YESHUA FOR MY SPIRITUAL KNOWLEDGE- NOT FACELESS COWARDLY IDIOTS ON THE INTERNET!

.     MATTHEW 10:40-42.

Yes.
A prophet's, a righteous man's and a disciple's rewards-
Which are you?
Which are Christians?

40. "He that receiveth you receiveth me,
and he that receiveth me
receiveth him that sent me.
41. "He that receiveth a Prophet
in the Name of a Prophet
 shall receive a Prophet's Reward;
and he that receiveth a Righteous man
in the Name of a Righteous man
shall receive a Righteous man's Reward.
42. "And whosoever shall give to drink
unto one of these little ones
a cup of cold water only
in the Name of a Disciple,
verily I say unto you,

'HE SHALL IN NO WISE
LOSE HIS REWARD.' "



Lol
So, God can't see your allegiance thru His Spirit in you, Him need to confam am with tithes?! cheesy

(12) THE PAYING OF TITHES AND OFFERINGS SHOWS GOD, LORD YESHUA, THE ANGELS, SATAN, AND THE DEVILS, YOUR TRUE ALLEGIANCE

.    GENESIS 28:20-22.


Finally, we're getting somewhere!
You're not a son of Christ's, you're a son of Jacob's.
At least we've resolved that small problem; now I know where you're coming from.
Bro, since you're not a Christian, your contributions and comments are null and void.
QED.

20. And Jacob vowed a vow,
saying,

"If God will be with me,
and will keep me in this way that I go,
and will give me bread to eat,
and raiment to put on,
21. "So that I come again
to my father's house in peace;
then shall The LORD be my God:
22. "And this stone, which I have set for a pillar,
shall be God's House:
and of all that Thou shalt give me
I will surely give the tenth unto Thee."


Huh.
I was expecting to see, "blessed are they that pay their tithes..."
How far na?
E no dey?

.    MATTHEW 5:1-26.

AND seeing the multitudes,
he went up into a mountain:
and when he was set,
his Disciples came unto him:
2. And he opened his mouth,
and taught them,
Saying,

3. "Blessed are the poor in spirit:
for theirs is The Kingdom of Heaven.
4. "Blessed are they that mourn:
for they shall be comforted.
5. "Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the Earth.
6. "Blessed are they which do
hunger and thirst after Righteousness:
for they shall be filled.
7. "Blessed are the merciful:
for they shall obtain mercy.
8. "Blessed are the pure in heart:
for they shall see God.
9. "Blessed are the Peacemakers:
for they shall be called The Children of God.
10. "Blessed are they which are persecuted
for righteousness' sake:
for theirs is The Kingdom of Heaven.
11. "Blessed are ye, when men
shall revile you, and persecute you,
and shall say all manner of evil
against you falsely,
for my sake.
12. "Rejoice,
and be exceeding glad:
for Great is your Reward in Heaven:
for so persecuted they the Prophets
which were before you.
13. "Ye are the Salt of the Earth:
but if the salt have lost his savour,
wherewith shall it be salted?
it is thenceforth good for nothing,
but to be cast out,
and to be trodden under foot of men.
14. "Ye are the Light of the World.
A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.
15. "Neither do men light a candle,
and put it under a bushel,
but on a candlestick; and it giveth light
unto all that are in the house.
16. “Let your light so shine before men,
that they may see your good works,
and glorify your Father Which is in Heaven.
17. "Think not that I am come
 to destroy The Law, or The Prophets:
 I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.


The Scribes and Pharisees, who demanded tithes and all forms of levies from the people?
Hmmm... grin

18. "For verily I say unto you,

'TILL HEAVEN AND EARTH PASS,
ONE JOT OR ONE TITTLE SHALL IN NO WISE
 PASS FROM THE LAW,
 TILL ALL BE FULFILLED.'


19. "Whosoever therefore shall break one
of these least Commandments,
and shall teach men so,
he shall be called The Least
in The Kingdom of Heaven:
but whosoever shall do and teach them,
the same shall be called Great
in The Kingdom of Heaven.
20. "For I Say unto you,

'THAT EXCEPT YOUR RIGHTEOUSNESS
SHALL EXCEED THE RIGHTEOUSNESS
OF THE SCRIBES AND PHARISEES,
YE SHALL IN NO CASE ENTER INTO
THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN.'
