Do a person on fixed income have to pay tenth for tithes?

In reply to Dave, if you can show me where the Father or the Messiah just do something at random then it might not make any difference to when the resurrection happened. Look at all the prophecies concerning the flood, or Israel going into captivity, or concerning the birth, or the return of the Messiah. I don't believe they just took place at any random point in time, but fall at specific points in time as appointed by the Father or the Son.
Vern, I believe we should go back to the foundation of the statement which is found in Jonah 1:17.
Can someone answer me this, why is it when you celebrate your birthday, anniversary, or a holiday like Christmas, one year its on a Mon. then the next year it will be on a Tues. and continue to change year after year. Why doesn't Easter do the same thing? Shouldn't the same logic apply?

What do I think of Mk 2:28? Rev. 1:10 Gen 2:2 Ex 20:8 7th day is His day not first day. However I am not a legalist...for I am under Christ. I go to church on Sun. and I go to church on Sat. I go to church because I love God not because I am bound to the Law. Thank you.

Joseph agreed nd told St Mary; so they brought him (Jesus) to d master who as soon as he saw him says Aleph, Beth even jesus refuse 2 pronounce beth he was threatened 2 whip, nd after dat Jesus began clearly nd distinctly to say Aleph, Beth, Gimel, Daleth nd so on to d end of alphabet.

"Sir I'm sorry you can't read 4th grade English. " I THE LORD HAVE DECEIVED THAT PROPHET,"( Ezekiel 14:9). I agreed you made a good point. If you will read ( I doubt it) let these Scriptures (KJB) flip your wig, and pray about this about 10 years. ( 2 Sam 24:1) And again the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and He moved David against them to say, Go, number Israel and Judah. ( 1 Chr 21:1) Satan stood up against Israel, and provoked David to number Israel. Now you know the Bible doesn't contradict. ( Job 1:12) And the LORD said unto Satan, Behold, all that he hath is in THY POWER; now look at ( Job 2:3) "and still he holdeth fast his integrity, although thou MOVEDST ME against him, to destroy him without cause." You want a hint to the answer? The LORD's axe is sharpened on the Devil's grindstone ~Havner. "

Genesis, chapter 1 states God created everything, man included. Then it says in Chapter 2 that he made Adam from the dust. Which is it? Man and then Adam? Also, if we were created in his image why are we violent? Because God destroyed all he created that sounds like God is violent. Men do not kill their children, yet God killed his because his were apparently not living up to his expectations. Why then, is it we worship God? One who can so easily dispatch that which he created in his own image. You don't beat your children for receiving a failing grade in school, let alone murder them for their indiscretions. This is all very violent. Not to mention that rather than a clean slate, because killing everything would be wrong(?), God allows 2 of everything (which wouldn't fit on any ship) redemption. Why cleanse the earth of all living things? Why not simply wave his hand and cleanse us of evil? If he is so mighty, and if it troubled him so, why destroy it all? Why only allow 2 of each type of creature to remain unchanged? IF we are all of HIS image, then why does he hate us so? I tire so of the common "God works in mysterious ways," statement. It is no answer. It is merely lack of an argument. First he creates man, then he creates Adam, then he kills all but Noah and his family and their families. God is a bully.

I dreamed these words a few months ago: they made their bed in hell; last year I heard that my spouse e is committing infidelity against our marriage, and the source has showed me proof; I have not made a decision yet, but have put it in god's hands, because god came to me in another dream previously be still and don't say anything, that this battle is not mine, its the lords; then came dream, they made their bed in hell....do you think god sent this dream or otherwise?

ephah what does this word meneg?

If Simon was a leper, why were people with him in his home?

If it is written that Moses looked all around and saw that all was clear to slay the Egyptian then how come all of a sudden it was known to all and sundry. The Egyptian had been killed and buried. So no signs left! What Happened? …. And so ……
The wife who had been cavorting with the Egyptian was, to say the least a rattle mouth and it was she who told the neighbors what Moses had done, thus the statement as to the fact the murder was now known to all.

What is the story behind the slaying of the Egyptian? After all he was not just any one. He was a designated overseer, so what exactly was going on that so infuriated Moses that he killed the man? Moses approached the scene where he sees an Egyptian coming out of an Israelite's house. The husband came home and is offended by the situation. The Egyptian, on top of everything, then beets the Israelite. Not only had the Egyptian taken advantage of his position by coveting another man's spouse but on top of it thrashes the husband for his "impertinence".

I believe that we can only have faith in God if we know Him because how can we trust/believe/have confidence in anyone and we don't know them? the key to having faith is building a personal relationship with God and getting to know Him through the Bible/the Holy Spirit/the five fold ministry/your own personal experiences with Him.

Samson was commanded by God that he should never cut his hair (for what reason(s) I do not know) but to be commanded to not cut his hair clearly shows us it was the norm for men to cut their hair; Sampson was about to become a one of a kind kind of guy and his hair length was not the norm. The bible says it's against nature to be homosexual and it says it's against nature for men to have long hair. Asking the question, "how long is long?" is all too often the same as asking, "Can God make a stone so large that even he can't move it?" Those are Satan questions, clever words to deceive - same as when he said to Eve, 'you shall surely NOT die." There were many things that God overlooked ... until the cross and there after. If you're a Christian man and you're wondering what 'long hair' means, perhaps you're just looking for an 'out'? If you're struggling with what constitutes 'long hair' on a man, maybe just get a crewcut or a cut around the ears and the back above the collar and be done with the questioning ...

What I want to know is - what was the source of the light in verse 3, since the sun and the moon and stars were not created until verse 16? Also, without the sun, it would have been to cold and dark for the vegetation referred to in verses 11 and 12.

If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.

Can you understand what he is saying? Would you be able to be one of Jesus disciples?

Unless you have suffered, been ridiculed and hated you can't understand what he is talking about.

He is telling the truth!

the word subdue in the 28th verse brings the meaning 'use it'. that is what i have understood, is that right..........?

Folks claim the Bible says Jesus is God. Really?
Why then do the scriptures proclaim --that God was over Jesus in authority. The power Jesus had was given to him by God. Jesus had no power except God GAVE it to him. Read the scriptures.

Who is Jesus the son of God or God himself? Some call him Jehovah and some lord is Jehovah's meaning lord?

You can interpret this any way you feel. The only fact of it is that the Old Testament was written by the ancient Israelites thousands of years ago, in a society extremely different from ours. It is easy to take this verse out of context and manipulate it to your liking. Would not you be better off studying the history of the Old Testement and try and analyze what they were ACTUALLY talking about? just a thought.

Where is the quiz? I look forward to the quiz as part of my study. If I don't get 100% then I read the chapter again and again until I achieve 100%.

Please put the quiz in. Thank you

My humble opinion for different opinions given on this chapter is:
A. - Please remember Jesus last words before He went to Heaven
Mark Chapter 16 :15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.

B.- Peter's name was Simon/Simeone

In Aramaic his name was Cephas, which means stone: Peter ,/ Petros which in Greek means stone from the word (petra)

The foundation of the church is built on the Rock who is Jesus Christ See Ephesian 2:
20And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;

C. - I will remind here that we are all equal in front of Jesus ,please look into Corinthians Chapter 1:10 Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.
11 For it hath been declared unto me of you, my brethren, by them which are of the house of Chloe, that there are contentions among you.
12 Now this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ.
13 Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were ye baptized in the name of Paul?

That bible portion is self explanatory. The word "destruction" means to destroy, to remove, to cut off, to annihilate, to exterminate, to obiliterate. So when the bible therein, said that the wicked shall under go eternal destruction, it simply mean the wicked shall be destroyed entirely. For instance, let us assume, that you have some of your cloths that are no longer useful to you, when you put them into fire, will the cloths remain the same? NO. The cloths will burn to ashes. Let us also cite the example of noah's day. When the bad people where destroyed, did the bible record that they went to hell fire? No. They were destroyed entirely. So this bible portion suggests total destruction, which means that the wicked wont receive any punishment in any place of torment, rather they will be destroyed. Psalms 37 verses 9, 10, 20, 34, 38.) JEREMIAH 25 verses 31 to 33,) 2PETER 2 Verse 9, ) and PROVERB 2 Verses 21 and 22, Will help Us to understand the meaning of that 2thessalonia 1 verse 6. And also help us to understand that, there is nothing like hell fire. Hell means grave, and not a place meant for bad ppl only, both bad and good people go to bible hell. Example, Jesus . Acts 2 verse 31. And also the thief that died on the tree with Jesus. Luke 23 verse 43. He will be resurrected from the hell or grave. Acts 24 verse 15. Bible said therein, the unjust will be resurrected, which means that thief is among the unjust that will be resurrected in the last day.

How the Church(7womens)will tell we will eat our bread, and we will wear own shelter take our reproach? all the churches in this world is one universal church it is compared to 1 women there is mentioned 7 womens and JESUS CHRIST has shed his blood and made it pure, now church is without reproach, if JESUS CHRIST has shed his blood how can the church(womens)tells take our reproach?

I couldn't figure out why my husband stayed away from me. Then God keeped reminding me of this verse today. Now I see. I had been bitter about the way he was living and I complained constantly, I'm with Gods help am going to stop this complaining and love him no matter what he's doing. (I don't like to be around anyone who complains. So why would he? ) Hope I've helped someone Amen

re pat & dennis Does it really matter which days it happened on? Does that change your beliefs in the resurrection, I would hope not. But the calendar we use today is not the same as the ones used in the time Jesus was in the flesh, the only thing that matters is do you believe with all you heart that it happened, I do, and because he did these things I will live with him in glory for eternity, and so will any one else who truely believes
