In reality, tithers go broke all the time. I criticize the legalists, and God prospers me. When I tithed, I stayed unsuccessful and defeated.

@@thebubbacontinuum2645 well not me. I've been tithing for years, I'm healthy my finances are well I'm going to retire early, so your experience with Buddha doesn't work in Christianity you can't mix the two they don't work. Choose now this day who you will serve..

​@@thebubbacontinuum2645 i always wonder if people like you actually even tithed or if you did it for any amount of time. It changed my life. It's literally a universal law of giving and receiving that can't be broken

Ive just started tithing and my bank account is in deficit but am choosing to trust in God for these blessings.

Stop tithing. You are not a Jew. Pray in tongues, love God, spend time with him, and beg for correction. The money gospel will keep you poor.

@@thebubbacontinuum2645 Why would anyone discourage someone from tithing. You're free to do what you feel is right between you and God, but bless those who believe differently. 🙏✝️

@@candibeam9059 because I am on God's side, not Satan's. You should be quiet. We are not supposed to "believe differently." The kingdom of heaven is a kingdom, not a democracy. There is one truth. Tithing will not make anyone prosperous. For every video testimony, there are thousands of people who lost jobs, homes, and savings. If you want to be blessed, give to the poor, not the rich.

Don't stop tithing!!!! Satan doesn't want you to obey God!

@@thebubbacontinuum2645 how do the church doors stay open if folks don't give? it takes money to run the house of the lord. also, are all ministers using the finances to purchase jets, cars, houses, etc? that's a blanket statement. " For every video testimony, there are thousands of people who lost jobs, homes, and savings." that's a BOLD statement that you need to back up with proof. you are filled with the holy ghost since you mentioned tongues???

Beautiful testimony! Thank you for sharing!!

If God were prospering you for tithing, you wouldn't ever be down to your last penny. The prosperity gospel only makes arrogant preachers rich. God loves giving to the poor, not the rich and toxic.

Thanks for sharing... this comment and knowledge is gonna bless me in Jesus mighty name..thanks again sister!

amen!!!

Thanks for sharing your comment

Delphy, tithing is in the Bible. You need to take your tithes and offerings to Jerusalem, and give them to the tribe of Levi, because God ordained the tribe of Levi, to receive the tithes and offerings from the children of Israel, according to the law (Hebrews 7:5).

Absolutely!! Thank you for watching!

Good to hear

Thanks for watching!

The Jewish law forbids tithing and giving offerings when you owe money. You are not under the law. God wants you, not your money.

We are grateful for your heart in wanting to give. You can click here: www.cbn.com/giving/700club/contribute.aspx?intcmp=gvsl_www1.cbn.com-_0_GiveNow&o=1

No no no. Do not let the left hand know what the right hand is doing. Giving freely, generously, and cheerfully does not keep track of every penny. When things get tight every now and then, and you’re sitting there counting up all that you’ve given in tithes and offerings, you’ll be tempted to believe God is holding out on you, and develop a “it’s not fair” attitude, and the next thing you know you’re all mad and bitter. Been there; done that. Poor advice in my opinion.

​@@scottkretsch4887He said, keep track of tithes, not offerings. If the Holy Spirit told him, who are you to go against it?

@@Que772 tithes/offerings...it doesn’t matter- don’t count it and don’t keep track of it. Until the Holy Spirit tells me otherwise, I’m sticking with wisdom & experience.

if you tithe, I would say you're putting God first in your finances and you have a stronger commitment to Christ than someone not tithing.

As a former reformed, I was once highly critical of these matters until it reached a point where I was working only nine hours per week, living paycheck to paycheck. God has blessed me immensely, and He has remained faithful to His words. We cannot claim to follow scripture alone if we only choose what we like and reject what we don't like. God challenges us to test Him on this, and I did. The God we worship today is the same God the people of the Old Testament worshipped; the only difference is that the New Covenant offers better promises. Be blessed.

@@AlexisSustento Yes, people tend to think Tithing is blessing them, when it’s really their giving. We can choose any percentage. Just count the cost and give. It’s pretty simple.🙂

​@@simplecomplexmen I believe that's your perception; it never crossed my mind that tithing is blessing us. We believe God is the one blessing us, and we tithe because we acknowledge that everything we have belongs to God. What is 10 percent given back to God? In fact, we can never outgive God. Also the bible says to test Him on this and I did. Indeed God has rebuked the devourer for my sake. It came to a point I have nothing left on my bank account but God is a faithful covenant keeper. I also believe that the main issue here is really obedience. Do we really believe what the bible says or we only choose what we like and reject what we don't like. Also we don't give out of compulsion, we must be cheerful givers.

@@AlexisSustento God owns 100% , so it all belongs to him. There are churches that teach against tithing not giving and they are blessed too. They should be devoured according to your position. The scripture clearly explains the purpose of tithing and why they were receiving the tithes. That’s what we follow, not anecdotal evidence. I’m glad God moved in your life, but you have to reconcile the reasons with scripture not just your personal feelings about it. Share some New Testament scripture. There is none. Lev. 27 explains tithing. We are obedient to scripture not to a personal testimony. Otherwise we would be all over the place. Believers testify about things that conflict with scripture all of the time. It’s ok to give freely as the spirit leads or a designated amount that your heart desire’s. Let’s not add to scripture to make ourselves appear more godly than the next. If you want to give 10, 20, 5, 50 percent, just do it with the proper heart condition.

@@simplecomplexmen Your inclination seems to lean more towards intellectual pursuits than the supernatural. Please read Malachi 3:10-11. The word of God is infallible, but our interpretation may not be. If our opinions don’t align with scripture, we are the ones in error. While we follow the word of God, anecdotal evidence only supports the living faith we already have. The Bible also says we overcome the enemy by the blood and the word of our testimonies, so do not despise testimonies; rather, test them first to see if they align with the word of God. We don’t go around disagreeing with things we don’t yet understand or haven’t experienced. You said it yourself, let’s not appear more godly than the next and must decide in our hearts what we want to give whether it be 10-50%. Having knowledge is one thing, but applying it is wisdom. Apostle Paul, in 2 Corinthians 9:6-7, encourages believers to give to the church willingly and cheerfully. He emphasizes that the amount given is a personal decision, not to be done reluctantly or under compulsion. The passage underscores the principle of sowing and reaping, suggesting that generous giving leads to abundant blessings. To sum it all up, God owns everything, even the very air that we breathe comes from Him and we can never out give him, So what is 10-50% percent giving back to God?

WIL, thank you for joining the discussion. Let us pray for the church, which is the Body of Christ, to align to the Word who is Jesus Himself. God bless you!'

Let the perfect love of God cast our all of your fears and free you from any torment. Be blessed!'

@@700ClubInteractive I have no torment ; I'm blessed . The Holy Spirit is with me . I tithe and the Lord has rebuked the devour for me many times .

@@700ClubInteractive Thank you . I pray for the church and teach people to seek Jesus not religion . Religion and Jesus two different things . Religion is following man's customs like the Pharisees love to do . ( Following man's customs or traditions of men ) . I teach the body of Christ to follow Jesus not religion or man . Jesus himself kicked the religious people out . So following Jesus and having a relationship with Him is what's important. Blessings !

Yes, it is like casting seed on barren soil and expecting some kind of return.

Amen, Jesse! Your words remind us of the urgency to align our lives with God's will. Indeed, repentance and righteousness through Christ Jesus prepare us for His imminent return. Let's stay vigilant and steadfast in our faith, living each day in readiness for His glorious coming. As it's written in Matthew 24:44, "Therefore you also must be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect." May we all heed this call and be found faithful when He returns. Amen.

He could of repent but Jesus Christ already seen he's future

What do you mean?

@@GoodNews-px2im My statement speaks for itself. Maybe thats their reward kitchen...

@@knighttoking7926 if your statement spoke for itself, I wouldn’t have asked for clarification. I was asking about the “that ship isn’t hard to live in,” statement.

@@GoodNews-px2im I hope you get better soon.

@@knighttoking7926 What are you talking about? All I did was ask for a little clarification…

Jesus said "Give to God what belongs to God (your first and best) and to Caesar what belongs to Caesar" So clearly there is a principal in Giving to God. Jesus also said "I have not come to destroy the law, but to fulfill or complete the law" Now there are no churches that I know of who will excommunicate you if you are not tithing, or a governance that will haul you to jail for not tithing so yes in essence we are not under the "law to tithe" we have that freedom of choice, but many of us know the spiritual principal of tithing and that blessing is still available to followers of God today! (Also the "New Testament" starts when Jesus Christ came into the world when Jesus was born!..you are in essence saying as a Jesus follower you would rather follow Paul, then the very words of Jesus Christ!

Ray is right. Christians who tithe are putting themselves under the law, and it's worse than the actual Jewish law, because the Jewish laws of tithing are very different from the self-serving nonsense greedy preachers teach. Tithers go broke all the time. If you want God's financial blessings, seek his kingdom and his righteousness first. That's the only prosperity gospel Jesus mentioned. Also, give to the poor. Jesus wants us to help others. He will not bless you for buying jets for rich TV stars who are parasites and liars.

@@thebubbacontinuum2645 Have you ever practiced tithing??

This couple were blessed in their giving a tithe and more so they were blessed with money so they could give others. According to your faith, be it unto you. Jesus said. Their faith was in giving a tithe and then more. Don't condemn what God honors.

You are right. Preachers teach tithing so they can bleed us and trust us for their support instead of God.

@@thebubbacontinuum2645 For sure! All a part of the system that God did NOT create! ALSO , THERE WERE THREE TITHES IN THE OLD TESTAMENT BUT NO ONE TEACHES THAT! check out the videos from 'THE LAST REFORMATION'...YOU WILL BE BLESSED!

The book of Hebrews says Jesus is now our High Priest, so High Priests have ministries that deserve to be tithed to. Of which the tithe was demonstrated through Abraham before the law. Our High Priest now and forever is Jesus and His ministries are your local Trinitarian churches who are Spirit-filled and Spirit- led and are preaching/teaching the true gospel. So give your tithe to your current and forever High Priest, Jesus, at your local Trinitarian born-again, Spirit-filled church, so the leaders God has placed there can build up the Body of Christ.

@@frick6946 I have no time to reply to someone who is not open to the truth but is busy making up his own doctrines/traditions instead of just relying on God's word!

@@donnag.3611 I do rely on God's Word.

This is correct. If anyone gives it should be because they want to...God loves a cheerful giver.

Try tithing and not tithing , you will notice a big difference in prayers being answered . Jesus is our High Priest forever and ever. ( see Hebrews). Jesus has ministries, namely the born-again, Spirit-filled and Spirit-led Trinitarian local churches all around the world. Give your tithe to your High Priest, Jesus, and He will bless you.

@@frick6946 Yes, Jesus is our High Priest forever and nowhere in the Bible does it state that continually paying money to a religious institution is the equivalent of “Jesus receiving tithes”. It's literally impossible to tithe to Jesus, but there's nothing wrong with tithing as a discretionary act of systematic giving, to a church or otherwise, money or otherwise. We're free to give, not bound to pay.

it is biblical; it started before the law and was under the law and Jesus is now our High Priest. So give to your High Priest ( Jesus) at your local Trinitarian, born-again, Spirit-led and Spirit-filled church that is teaching /preaching the true gospel. Your tithe will build up the Body of Christ. The leaders there will answer to God for how it was spent.
