# 15 Tithing, Giving and SacrificingNovember 2, 2007
Article By: Tom Demeter In the Old Testament "Tithing" was a Requirement You know
that on June 5, 1933
we changed from God’s system to the Anti-god’s system, making us all
idolaters by using Satan’s “credit” system, “codes” and
“insurance,” instead God’s
money, laws and our faith, with House Joint Resolution 192. By the use and obedience of Satan’s system we are all
sinners Rom.6:16 Since that
day we can’t “buy and sell” God’s way, and
wear the “MARK of the BEAST”
Rev.13:17. As of
October 12, 2007
California outlawed, terminated Christianity, by forcing us to accept and
teach Sodomy with S.B. 777. This bill was approved by the California Senate on
May 25, 2007 and signed into law by our governor the
“Terminator.” God’s
system’s “remnants” based
on “good and evil” was removed, by popular demand and now by law, telling us how
much we “hate”
God Jn.7:7. These acts
are the confirmation of our “blindness.”
We did not glorified God and were not thankful for His blessings for our
freedom and prosperity Rom.1:20-22. As
a result we do not understand God’s most elementary system the Old Testament,
or the little more advanced New
Testament, or God’s Mystery Administration.
We change to paganism, and all of us became “fools,” blind to lead
the whole world into destruction. If
you are
fortunate that
God is
“calling” you,
to get
to know
Him
Jn.6:44, you must start from the very beginning like
Cain and Abel.
You must learn to sacrifice, give,
“tithes” like
the people in the Old Testament.
Tithing was a required sacrifice
Deut.14:22!
If you did not tithe our Creator would not bless you, the Anti-god would,
and that came with “curses.”
Not tithing was considered stealing!
“Will a man rob God?
Yet you have robbed me”
said the Creator through His Prophet Mal.3:8. We are all
experiencing the reality of God’s “curses” every day Deut.28.
I had a man explain to me twenty some years ago that we don’t make more
than the Chinese, by the time we pay all of our direct taxes of 30%, the
indirect tax of 30%, and 30% clandestine taxation to the Anti-god.
You “can’t get ahead”
in this system unless you give your body, soul and spirit to the
Anti-god. This is why I was looking for ways to “obey” God by “coming out” of
this system, not to receive all its “plagues”
Rev.18:4. What a
journey and experience it was. Our Creator is a giver. You must become like Him, if you want to be “joint HEIRS with Christ” Rom.8:17, or to be heard and blessed, to be in the Godhead! This is why Jesus said that “where your ‘treasure’ is, there will your ‘heart’ be also” Mat.6:21. If you don’t give to God and His servants, you serve the Anti-god, you SAVE your life not “sacrifice” it as God requires Mat.16:25. This is the first “requirement” just to approach God as Cain and Able was taught Gen.4:1-8. The New Testament
Changed Tithing
to “Giving”
We must
remember that the first Christians were all Jews,
obeying the Old Testament “laws of flesh” Rom.7:25.
Jesus came to “fulfill that law,” and to advance mankind, Israel and
the Gentiles to the higher “laws
of faith” Rom.3:27.
Jesus could not give God’s “higher”
laws of faith to Israel, or His 12 Apostles
until Pentecost,
because to obey it the “holy spirit” is needed. This gospel of faith was also a “temporary” gospel,
because God’s reality could be received, only through faith, not in
experience. In the Old
Testament there were three tithes. The
“first tithe” was given as an offering to the Levites, who
gave their tithe to the Priests, and they gave theirs to the High Priest.
The “second tithe”
was put away and spent during the Feasts of the Old Testament, to give
Israel a taste of Christ’s rule. The
“third tithe”
was given and spent every seven years to help the widows, orphans etc.
distributed by the church. Jesus
changed Israel from the old Administration to the New Administration with the
new “law of faith,” and the religion of faith,
where “what soever is not of faith is sin” Rom.14:23. Jesus
changed all the Feasts, the calendar, customs, clean and unclean meets etc.
The Sabbath
was changed to a new day, a day people would choose, based on their faith
“one man esteems one day above the other; another ‘everyday
ALIKE” Rom.14:5.
The “days, and month, and times, and years” of the Old Testament was
changed by Jesus Gal.4:10. Jesus
changed the
“tithe” of
(20%), to
“free choice”
offerings.
You were required to give more than in the Old Testament, but you were
not forced to do it.
This was very important because the way you give, and
whom you give tells where is your heart, or spiritual
advancement Mat.6:21.
You can’t give to God and the Anti-god. Jesus expanded His gospel to
the Gentiles, to “alienate”
and provoke Israel, that they may be conciliated and be
“reconciliated” later in the “ages to come” Eph.2:7.
This is why the New Testament was given to the
Gentiles
and written in Greek.
Here there is no difference between man and woman, or Jew and Greek /
Gentiles, free or bond Gal.3:26.
The New Testament followers were the “children of God by faith” V.26,
while Israel was given the Old Testament law by angels Acts.7:53, and they
worshipped, and served angels V.42, not our Creator Eph.3:9.
When Saint Steven testified of this truth the Jews could not take it, and
they stoned Stephen to death Acts.7:54.
This is vital info to you, because the Anti-god, and his “christ,” the BEAST will change his “deceived” Christianity to obey the Sabbath, and YHVH, not Jesus our Christ. The very name of Jesus will be persecuted, and the Bible will be a “hate literature” as it is now in California. The Anti-god’s “Noahide Law” will cause Christians to be beheaded Rev.20:4, as John the Baptist and Paul was, unless they flee to God’s Place of Safety the angels prepared for us Rev.12:9. Christianity is totally “deceived” like the people in Noah’s day Mat.24:37, when they did not have God’s “holy spirit” or His “knowledge of salvation” Lk.1:77. This is why God has sent His 1st Witness of His Two Witnesses Rev.11:3 to “restore” the truth to us Mat.17:11, sounding a Midnight Cry Mat.25:6, to “come out” of this world Rev.18:4. Paul's Mystery Gospel Added to Giving, "Sacrifice"The
resurrected Jesus, now our Christ
gave the “full gospel,”
and highest “Gospel of the
Mystery,” based on the “laws of the spirit”
Rom.8:2 to Apostle Paul. The
Apostles could not receive Christ’s Gospel,
Paul called “my gospel”
Rom.2:16 even when they had the “holy
spirit” in them.
They were all lacking the
true “knowledge of salvation”
Lk.1:77, necessary to receive this “highest”
gospel of God! This
is why the Apostles cast out from their churches Paul.
Only after the Apostles were also left by their followers, because of
Nero’s persecution of Christians, Christ opened their mind to receive Paul’s
gospel, but by then Paul was dead in Rome.
Even Apostle Paul did not fully understood the “doctrine of
salvation,” and its “alienation” of us from God, and our
“reconciliation” to Him of us Col.1:21,20,
later in the “ages to come” Eph.3:9. The
resurrected Jesus, our Christ made Apostle Paul’s gospel even more difficult
to accept. You not only
needed to give gifts
by your “free choice,”
but it was required that you become a
“living sacrifice to God”
Gal.2:20, as Paul was. Paul
tells us that he “FILLED UP
that which is behind,
( left over or not done) of
the ‘afflictions of Christ’
in MY
FLESH for His body’s sake,
which is the church” Col.1: 24.
Paul demanded that “YOU
be partaker of Christ’s sufferings”
IPet.4:13 also, but this is never given in our Christian churches that
“unto YOU
it is given in the ‘behalf
of Christ,’ not only to believe
on Him, but also to SUFFER
for His sake” Phil.1:29;
2Tim.1:8. Yes my friend,
Jesus warned us that His salvation is the “strait and narrow way, and
‘FEW’ are (given /
allowed Lk.8:10) to find it”
Mat.7:14, in this age of
6000 years of evil given to the Anti-god to rule humanity. What
is your
“sacrifice” you
need to
give?
You must be willing to “come out” of this system of the Anti-god,
which is a total opposite of Christ’s kingdom
Rev.18:4. You must
“endure” your
“persecution”
from this system Mat.24:13, as you are coming out of this world step by
step, until you are free.
In Paul’s
Gospel you have to be “spiritually minded”
that you could be in the “reality” of Christ’s eternal kingdom.
This is why just to be a learner, or a
“Disciple of Christ,” you can’t
own anything Lk.14:26,27,33. You
need to be FREE that the Anti-god would not have a hold on you.
You must be in God’s Kingdom and be a
NEUTRAL person to this
world, and an Ambassador to it 2Cor.5:20.
This is why if you don’t “come
out” of this world, Christ will
let you to receive its deadly “plagues” Rev.18:4.
Sacrifice is must for “flesh and blood can’t inherit (any of) the (3)
Kingdoms of God” ICor.15:50. It is God’s 1st Witness who show us how to “come out” of this world religiously, legally and financially, as he is “restoring “ the truth to us. Without this Prophet, we can’t find the truth, because truth comes to us by “revelations,” from God’s faith to yours. Since Christians have an angelic spirit, they can’t receive God’s “revelations.” This is why Christ had to send His 1st Witness to help some of us, whom our Father in heaven “calls” Jn.6:44 to receive, His “holy spirit” and the “knowledge of salvation” LK.1:77. Now you see how difficult it is and what a privilege it is to be a Christian today, when the “few” are called that their creation process could be finished, by the time Christ comes Phil.1:6. We are learning God’s complex process of salvation Col.2:12. Why We Need to Sacrifice?God’s
system of salvation, the “operation
of God” Col.2:12 is based on
God’s three (3) L-A-W-S, and His
three (3) RELIGIONS
to teach what is “good and
evil,” and to enforce good by His
(3) Governments, to reward us
with blessings or curses Deut.28. Our
temporary reward is “life more
abundant” Jn.10:10, and our
eternal reward is “eternal life.”
Our punishment for “sin,”
the transgression of His physical laws IJn.3:4 is physical
“death” Heb.9:27,
and for His eternal laws our eternal
DEATH, if we have God’s
“holy spirit” Mat.10:28 which is our
“second death” Rev.20:14. This tells
us that our physical visible “creation,” and spiritual invisible creation is
still going on, and includes many ages, “the ages to come”
Eph.2:7 or “dispensations” Eph.1:10, until we are
“born into” our
spiritual body, and the fourth dimension of God, the God kind, the “Godhead”
Acts.17: 29; Rom.1:20; Col.2:9.
God’s
salvation includes our “alienation” from God Col.1:21;
Eph.4:18, and our “conciliation”
process, which ends with our “reconciliation”
to God Col.1:20; 2Cor.5:18. God’s
salvation includes our salvation “who are on the
‘earth,” and also of the
angels “who are in ‘heaven’
Eph.1:10, and the demons who
are “under the earth” Phil.2:10, in the “bottomless pit”
Rev.9:1. Our Creator,
Jesus our Christ
Eph.3:9 is not YHVH
or Yashuah. Christ is
teaching us His “sacrificial
love” Jn.15:13 through “good
and evil” and the
“sacrifice” we
have to endure
Mat.24:13 to gain it. This
is why Jesus said that “the way to eternal life” is the “strait and
narrow” way, the difficult way, and “few”
can find it in this age Mat.7:14. Christ
to show
us His
sacrificial love,
came down
to earth,
not into the fourth dimension of the angels, and was willing to empty Himself
from all power and glory. He
was willing to DIE, and not only to
die, but by the most painful crucifixion, as it was pre-ordained Rev.13:8. This is why it is required that we be created temporary, carnal and given a “choice” to sacrifice and
DIE in the conflict between
good and evil. God’s system had
to be made a total OPPOSITE
of the Anti-god’s, whose gospel, and salvation is simple and lacking
most of the elements of God’s. God’s true
salvation “required” the sacrifice of Jesus,
to reconciliate
humanity to Him, and it also
requires the sacrifice of HUMANITY for the
reconciliation of the demons,
serving Satan, and their sacrifice to reconciliate the angels
serving God in heaven in that order.
This is why the Anti-god, the “god
of this world” 2Cor.4:4 is given
power to “destroy the earth” and
all humanity at the “End of the World”
Mat.24:3, which is now upon us.
Only those humans will be saved “without
dying” IThes.1:17 at the End of
the World, who are the “elect” of God Mat.24:22, obeying the “laws of the
spirit.” I pray that
you “hear” our Creator’s “call”
on your life, to be one of
His “elect,” and to be in Christ’s “better”
resurrection, now at the End of this World. May Christ bless, Protect and SAVE you
at the End of the World. |
