Re: 6 Reasons Satan Wants Apostolics Financially B

I practice tithing. I see no problem with it.... unless.

You quoted Malachi to show that a curse comes on people when they do not tithe.

That was true before the cross.

Not now.
Galatians 3:10-13 KJV For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them. (11) But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith. (12) And the law is not of faith: but, The man that doeth them shall live in them. (13) Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:
Any curse under Law was taken by Jesus. So, to get away from a curse, paying tithes won't do it, but coming into the New Covenant will.

So if you still say tithing removes a curse since the cross, then you have just replaced the work of the cross with paying tithes.

Our ability to pay tithes can't replace the work Jesus did on the cross to remove the curse! Woohoo! God won't let the glory go to us by our tithing.

Re: 6 Reasons Satan Wants Apostolics Financially B

Financial bondage is a mindset more than it is the work of the devil. When we realize and so live according to the principle that our life is a vapor and naked we came in and naked we go out, and that a man's soul is not bound up in the things which he possesses, to have or not have money in this world at any level just doesn't matter anymore.

So, let's forget about the devil and concentrate on the real enemy: the flesh.

God supplies all our needs according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus. We just have to learn how to be abased, and how to abound, in whatever season of life we are in.

Godliness with contentment is great gain.

This guy listens to Dave Ramsey.

I agree with votivesoul - So, let's forget about the devil and concentrate on the real enemy: the flesh.

I also agree that if you are in debt, you are in bondage. Been there, done that.

A church should operate debt-free. Let the post come now.

What an AWESOME post.

Thank you Sir!
