To Bitts Bajj - The tithe of the O.T. remains the same in the N.T. If we as church members give our tithes to the homeless, to worldly charities; how are our churches to support themselves - the monthly utilities, the repairs from storms or vandals, the normal repair from wear 'n tear?
Mal.6:7-8. And - the laborer is worthy of his hire, Pastors included. The pastors pay tithes too.

John answered and said, A man can receive nothing, except it be giving him from heaven.

Ye have shamed the counsel of the poor, because the LORD is his refuge. He that planted the ear, shall he not hear? he that formed the eye, shall he not see? Can any hide himself in secret places that I shall not see him? says the LORD. Do not I fill heaven and earth? says the LORD. Woe unto them that seek deep to hide their counsel from the LORD, and their works are in the dark, and they say, Who sees us? and who knows us? There is no darkness, nor shadow of death, where the workers of iniquity may hide themselves. Have you not known? have you not heard, that the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, faints not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding. I AM THAT I AM:

To Michael - Could you please give ch. and verse for Jesus saying we must be sent to Moses.....?

Bruce: Gal.1:17 Why did'nt Paul go to Jewusalem to be taught by the twelve apostles? That is what he means when he says that the gospel that he preached is "not after man" He did not learn "his" gospel from the 12 before him. Instead he went to Arabia (most likely to mount Sinai) where he saw our risen Lord Jesus and received new revelations that had never been revealed before, until Paul.

It seems to me it is saying look at those who believe in Gods other than me. Have they changed their ways? Do they not yet still believe? Why have you forgotten me and why do you stray from me? Especially knowing all that he has done, and what he has commanded them.

The mouth of the just brings forth wisdom: but the froward tongue shall be cut out. Is this house, which is called by my name, become a den of robbers in your eyes? Behold, even I have seen it, says the LORD. Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep. I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd gave his life for the sheep. And I give unto them eternal life and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand. My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: It is written, My house is the house of prayer: but ye have made it a den of thieves. Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of them which killed the prophets.

Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee? In TITHES and OFFERINGS. Therefore, ye shepherds, hear the word of the LORD: Thus says the Lord GOD: Many pastors have destroyed my vineyard, they have trodden my portion under foot, they have made my pleasant portion a desolate wilderness. They are all gone aside, they are all together become filthy: there is NONE that does good, no, not one. A voice of the cry of the shepherds, and an howling of the principal of the flock, shall be heard: for the LORD hath spoiled their pasture. And the shepherds shall have no way to flee, nor the principal of the flock to escape. For the pastors are become brutish, and have not sought the LORD: therefore they shall not prosper, and all their flocks shall be scattered. Howl, ye shepherds, and cry and wallow yourselves in the ashes, ye principal of the flock: for the days of your slaughter and of your dispersions are accomplished and ye shall fall like a pleasant vessel. Woe be to the shepherds of Israel that do feed themselves! should not the shepherds feed the flocks? Yea, they are greedy dogs which can never have enough, and they are shepherds that cannot understand: they all look to their own way, every one for his gain, from his quarter.

These things have you done, and I kept silence: you thought that I was altogether such an one as thyself: but I will reprove thee, and set them in order before thine eyes. Therefore thus says the Lord GOD: Behold, I, even I, am against thee, and will execute judgments in the midst of thee in the sight of the nations. Howl ye for the day of the LORD is at hand: it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty. The priests said not, Where is the LORD? and they that handle the law knew me not: the pastors also transgressed against me, and the prophets prophesied by Baal, and walked after things that do not profit. I have heard what the prophets said, that prophesy lies in my name, saying, I have dreamed, I have dreamed. Thus says the Lord GOD: Behold, I am against the shepherds and I will require my flock at their hand, and cause them to cease from feeding the flock: neither shall the shepherds feed themselves any more: for I will deliver my flock from their mouth, that they may not be meat for them. Woe be unto the pastors that destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture! SAYS the LORD. Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell? Thus says the LORD: A sword, a sword is sharpened, and also furbished: Howl ye, Woe worth the day! I am he that lives, and was dead and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen, and have the keys of hell and of death.

Great story but who is the word? This has never been authenticated, I cannot comprehend that this is Jesus because he was not born until thousands of years later. It is very confusing.

To Bruce - do you believe in the trinity .......? Not going to make a comment if you do; I'm just curious - and God bless you.

Matthew 4: Did King Herod Have all of his Families children killed ?

How old was Jesus ?

O house of David, thus says the LORD: Execute judgment in the morning, and deliver him that is spoiled out of the hand of the oppressor, lest my fury go out like fire, and burn that none can quench it, because of the evil of your doings. Behold, the hire of the labourers who have reaped down your fields, which is of you kept back by fraud, cries out: and the cries of them which have reaped are entered into the ears of the Lord of Sabaoth. For the house of Israel and the house of Judah have dealt very treacherously against me, says the LORD. Which imagine mischiefs in their heart: continually are they gathered together for war. Why do you say, O Jacob, and speak, O Israel: My way is hid from the LORD, and my judgment is passed over from my God? Hear ye the word of the LORD, O house of Jacob, and all the families of the house of Israel: You only have I known of all the families of the earth: therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities.

For the vineyard of the LORD of hosts is the house of Israel, and the men of Judah his pleasant plant: and he looked for judgment, but behold, oppression: for righteousness, but behold a cry. Have ye not read what David did, when he was hungry, and they that were with him: How he entered into the house of God, and did eat the show bread, which was not lawful for him to eat, neither for them which were with him, but only for the priests? Or have ye not read in the law, how that on the sabbath dayS the priests in the temple profane the Sabbath, and are blameless? But they counted our life a pastime, and our time here a market for gain: for, say they, we must be getting every way, though it be by evil means. Hear ye now, O house of David: Is it a small thing for you to weary men, but will ye weary my God also? Son of man, these are the men that devise mischief, and give wicked counsel in this city: Saying, When will the new moon be gone, that we may sell corn? and the Sabbath, that we may set forth wheat, making the supply small, and the demand great, and falsifying the prices and scales by deceit? He is a merchant, the scales of deceit are in his hand: he loves to oppress.

Son of man, hast thou seen what the ancients of the house of Israel do in the dark, every man in the chambers of his imagery? for they say, The LORD sees us not, the LORD hath forsaken the earth. Therefore let us lie in wait for the righteous because he is not for our turn, and he is clean contrary to our doings: he upbraided us with our offending the law, and objects, to our infamy, the transgressing of our education. Son of man, thou dwell in the midst of a rebellious house, which have eyes to see, and see not, they have ears to hear, and hear not: They have now compassed us in our steps: they have set their eyes bowing down to the earth for they are a rebellious house. He said furthermore unto me, Son of man, see thou what they do? even the great abominations that the house of Israel commits here, that I should go far off from my sanctuary? And though they say, The LORD lives, surely they swear falsely. And here men that die receive tithes but there he receives them, of whom it is witnessed that he lives. Hast thou seen this, O son of man? turn thee yet again, and thou shalt see greater abominations than these.

As a Christian in this chapter God's speaking to us When we aren't about Gods Law in Psalm 23:1, He said he'll supply our needs this means money also. But we take things out of context and used our own needs. People think God doesn't exist anymore because figure never bless them everything they have they made it happen? I say again God's not marked by our own unstanding.

Vs. 20

Very simple and makes sense. How can anyone look at the creation of the world and rule out that someone created it? Creation itself should tell you there is an intelligent designer. However, we can not rely on creation to tell us everything about Jehovah God. We must also read his word the Bible as it reveals the character of the Creator.

God Almighty tells the prophet Ezekiel to eat a book. In Revelations the prophet (apostle) John is told by King Jesus to eat a book .Could it be a sign to each prophet that the words eaten by each prophet would be a reminder to only speak what they will be told and only that?

To Hyzette - Rom. 10:9, v. 14. If all one need do is v. 9 - then what is Gen. to Rev. all about .......? Acts 2:37-38 -- "Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their hearts, and said, Men and brethren what shall we do? Then Peter said unto them, Repent and be baptized, everyone of you, in the NAME of Jesus Christ for the remission and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

Did Peter ever eat after food was offered him three times?

Isa. 62; I may be wrong about this; I know it's prophecy; v. 1 mentions the Gentiles, v.2 says 'they' (Jews) shall be called by a new name (Jesus, Lk. 1:31); later the Gentiles will be br'ot in - 'married' to the sons (Jews) in His salvation. This makes sense to me, but I may be wa-a-y off ..... ?.

The verse 9 caught my attention so much that I can't stop meditating.As Christians what good would be remembered of us by our fellow Christians and heaven as well. Does our good work please God? That is the question we should ask ourselves.

1 Thess 4 is where are the dead and they are returning with Christ 7th trump and we can't proceed them. Why? Because they are with Him coming here to set up His Kingdom and when He returns to Jerusalem which is the gathering place for all those worshipping a fake Christ that is instead of Christ which is to say antichrist the land will be flattened, hail stones fire. But we who wait will be fine.

Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather division: For there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; neither hid, that shall not be known. For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; I am come to send fire on the earth; I and my Father are one.

Rev. 6:17 - And who shall be able to stand? Those to whom GOD has said, "Stand and see the GLORY of GOD". HIS GLORY, just as HE demonstrated to Elijah, will bring down everything; and, there shall not be one stone left upon another. Man is building skyscrapers, each man trying to outdo the other; but, GOD's has said, there shall not be one stone left upon another. and HIS word is true! GLORY!!

From the description in Genesis, the Garden of EDEN = Middle East/Arabia. Are the Wars, Turmoil that are endermic in that area because of Adam and Eve's Original Sin?

Verses 14,15,16: go together. Our Savior said run, when you see these things taking place,don't even go in the house for a coat!
We need The Word in our life always. Without the word in our hearts we would listen to foolishness. Satan is a roaring lion seeking whoever! Eternity is before us, which way to go? Matthew 7:13-15.
