TOPIC: WHY PAYMENT OF TITHE IS STILL MANDATORY IN THE NEW TESTAMENT
TEXT: Hebrews 7:1-10
KEY VERSE: Matthew 23:23, “Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.

Payment of tithe is not limited to the Old Testament time; it is still mandatory for the New Testament believer. In our reading text for today, the scripture reveals that Abraham’s children yet in his loins paid tithes along with him to Melchizedek. The scripture says Melchizedek who receiveth tithes liveth. Abraham was promised children by God. These children of Abraham paid tithes in Abraham. Since we are children of Abraham by faith, we too should pay tithes in this dispensation of grace because he who receiveth tithes from Abraham liveth. Galatians 3:7, 29, “7 Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham. 29 And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.” God declared Jesus Christ as a Priest after the order of Melchizedek. Jesus Christ liveth and receiveth tithes from the children of Abraham by faith, which children we are. Hence, we must pay tithes to Him, through His representatives on earth.

Matthew 23:23, “Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone. This scripture shows that even in the New Testament, tithing is a mandatory obligation to God. Jesus was telling the Pharisees to continue paying their tithes without neglecting the weightier matters of the law – judgment, mercy and faith. In our day, God in His wisdom and mercy has taken many people to hell to witness first-hand the condition of tithe defaulters passing through judgment. The seven Columbian youths gave an account of their revelation thus: “Each of them had a metal plate on their chest that read: ‘I am here for not giving tithes and offerings.’ When I read that, I asked the Lord, ‘Lord, how can this be possible, that people are here for this reason?’ The Lord responded, ‘Yes, because these people thought that tithes and offerings were not important, when My word shows it as a command in Malachi 3:8-10.’ The Lord told me, ‘People in this place suffered a thousand times worse than others because they know the Word of the Lord, but disobeyed it.’”

Thought for the day: Give to God what belongs to Him in tithe and offering.
Song for the day:  We give Thee but Thine own
Bible reading for the day:
1 kings 6-7; Luke 23:27-38

For taking your time to study remain blessed. UNDERSTANDING ETERNITY WEDNESDAY MAY 10 TEXT: Psalm 90: 1 - 2 Key Verse: “The Lord is King forever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land Psalm 10:16 People that understand eternity are always careful. Eternity means forever and ever, it means ever-lasting, ever-living, never dying. Trillion upon trillion years, eternity is still on, in fact it is life without end. There are two extreme ends of eternity: The kingdom of God called third heaven where God the Father, God the son, God the Holy Ghost, twenty-four elders, saints of God that make heaven, holy angels of God, and entire host of heaven dwell now presently; Hell-fire, where Satan, demons, and sinners that have died in their sins are presently kept. God is the One that introduced eternity. He lives forever. It is not a choice, the One who created us is forever, hence you will live forever, but what matters is where you will live eternally. Remove God from the way, then t...

Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2)

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. Pastor Paul Rika’s Burden, Vision and Action To Reach the Unreached (2) Wednesday 15th October TEXT: Titus 3: 3-6   Key verse: Titus 3: 6 “Which He shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior.” I remember I was in Sao Tome and Principe as a deeper life national overseer and I was writing the book, “Divine Revelation of God’s Holiness and Judgment.” The vision the Lord gave to Michael Sambo. I was translating it into a book, with the scriptural backups to make it a sound evangelistic book. I saw that truly the world is doomed. What will I say about those who have not known Jesus among the 7 billion people on earth; those who do not even have anything to do with Him? Do I speak of the billions in Asia without understanding of Jesus? Out of the 1.4 billion in India, they are struggling to record 150 million Christians including Catholics.  Who knows Jesus then? Even among Pentecosta...
