T#016 THE DENOMINATIONS’ TITHING (kuno) & Other FUND SOLICITATIONS!


THE

DENOMINATIONS

TITHING

(as THEY impose)

THEIR FUND

SOLICITATIONS!!!


(NEVER MEANT FOR CHRISTIANS

TO IMPOSE NOR GET IMPOSED UPON !!!)

  • THE New COVENANT is
  • THE RULE & GUIDE for OUR FAITH
  • IN THE LORD JESUS THE CHRIST
  • in our time.
  • HE HIMSELF is THE AUTHOR
  • and THE PERFECTER of SUCH FAITH
  • to be in us (>>Hebrews 12:2).
  • HE HIMSELF is THE MEDIATOR
  • of this new and superior covenant
  • (>>Hebrews 9:15, >>12:24).

We are to be perfected in our faith

  • simply because like The Hebrews in The Old Testament times
  • we also are ourselves holding on to these differing faiths of these religions
  • and denominated-churches around us

when we were
called-out from
their influence

(mine was last September 1-4, 1982 ----
when Pastor Greg Ferraren & Yogi Ted del Rosario
were used by THE LORD JESUS)

  • as intervened by our LORD JESUS THE CHRIST!

From all these
different religions,

we are all to
achieve unity

thru >>Romans 15:5-6

thru THE NEW
COVENANT

particularly thru our
INDIVIDUAL
obedience

 to >>Revelation
2:18-3:22!

  • The Old Testament was inspired and true
  • for them who lived 

[who were treated by GOD
as A Family during
The Patriarchal Times

& then as
The Nation under Moses
after they crossed
The Red Sea]

  • --- prior to that Pentecost Day of A.D. 33.
  • It is not our law and standard of conduct today when .......

  • we are now(!) as planned and treated by GOD
  • on an INDIVIDUAL basis
  • without regard to family and nationality anymore! 

It taught “an eye for an eye”
and “a tooth for a tooth”
(>>Exodus 21:24,
>>Deuteronomy 19:20-21).



WHILE,
THE New COVENANT
standard



for us JEWS & GENTILES
alike in our time

(>>Hebrews 8:6-13)

  • IS TO LOVE OUR ENEMIES
  • AND TO RETURN GOOD FOR EVIL
  • (>>Romans 12:9-21)

The fact is:
We should not
waste our time
SINNING

by trying to live out
simultaneously both
covenants.


JESUS HIMSELF put that simply as a command for us to obey in >>Matthew 5:38-39:
  • You have heard that it was said,
  • ‘An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.’
  • But I say to you, do not resist him who is evil;
  • but whoever slaps you on your right cheek,
  • turn to him the other also.”

JESUS knew too well

  • that if HE leaves it up to us
  • to our understanding and wishes
  • we may or may not be able to obey HIM
  • on these matters HE wanted to make clear distinctions about.

Unless we study to be
approved unto GOD 

  • we are actually putting ourselves unto shame
  • ---- IF WE DO NOT RIGHTLY APPROPRIATE / DISPENSE / APPLY
  • THE WORD OF TRUTH
  • (>>2nd Timothy 2:15).

So many are because
of their stubborn imposition

of collecting tithesofferings and
special fund solicitations



+++ in THIS undeniably NEW COVENANT TIMES
we are in !!!!


So many are because of the inconsistencies

  • between their doctrines and practices
  • vis-à-vis those that THE rightly dispensed BIBLE
says to wit:

!! TITHES !!
  • As those NICOLAITANS and
  • their members insist call it
  • and require you to obey
  • and how contra-biblical
  • and inconsistent these NICOLAITANS
  • lording it over in their denominations are

---- as compared to what tithes is in THE BIBLE?


1.     Whereas only the Levitical priests had the command

    from GOD

    to gather tithes from the people

    under the law (>>Hebrews 7:5)

   by what verse of scripture are they entitled


      
  to gather from us


 their own brethren when all of us NOW(!)

are all priests (>>1stPeter 2:5, 9; >>Revelation 1:6)

because of  the change in priesthood (>>Hebrews 7:12)

we are already in ..... under THE New COVENANT?
    

2.     Why do they not spend it for the upkeep 



of all of GOD’s temples
in our time …


for the good health, vitality, and inadequacies


      
of their claimed
members?


They must be aware(!) that their members

do not as yet have the indwelling of The Holy Spirit

to make them GOD’s temples !!!!


3.     Why are they not gathering them yearly?


4.     Why are they not distributing them

to the beneficiaries every 3rd year?


5.     Why are they spending some of the amounts

for the purchase or amortization and operation and maintenance of cars

maintaining telephones, copying machines, air-conditioners

FOR THE PERSONAL USE OF A LIMITED PRIVILEGED FEW

WHOSE NUMBER ARE CONTROLLED BY THEM

when all in The Church are equally-privileged

before GOD

and are all co-beneficiaries of GOD’s wealth?


6.     Why is a definite amount appropriated

for their subsistence

and spent for themselves

when they are NOT LEVITES

nor HAVE CROSSED THE RED SEA WITH MOSES

nay ARE his descendants?


HE WHO HAS AN EAR LET HIM HEAR WHAT THE SPIRIT SAYS TO THE CHURCHes.”

--- (>>Revelation 2:29; >>3:6, >>13, >>22)



AS CALLED-OUT

  • YOU OUGHT TO HAVE AN EAR
  • FOR THE WORD OF GOD !!!!

WHY DON’T YOU NOW(!)

  • HEED THAT CALL &
  • in obedience OVERCOME
  • AND PUT TO LEAST POSSIBLE  EFFECT
  • THESE CORRUPTIONS
  • WITHOUT YOU ENGAGING TO ANY ARGUMENT
  • WITH THESE NICOLAITANS AROUND?

Be an OVERCOMER

(>>>T#027>>>T#089)

in YOUR church!


HEED THESE ~!
(>>Revelation 1:3>>22:7)
