The lust of the eye = Greed - Unbelief - Fear
The scripture says, Judas was baptizes. Judas baptizes others., Judas was anointed. Judas was empowered. Judas cast out Devils. Judas healed the sick. Judas preached the gospel.
If you do not tithe at 10% gross plus a offering you have left the door open for the enemy to steal, kill and destroy. According to Deuteronomy 8 and other scriptures God test us so He can bless us. God bless us when we believe - God bless us when we live by faith...when He tells us to do something and we do it , we are blessed.
The number ten all through scripture represent test. It is the number God uses to test Christians. Example, how many times did God test pharaoh's heart? - 10. How many Commandments are there? - 10. How many times did God test Israel when they wondered in the wilderness? - 10. How many times was Jacob's wages changed? - 10. How many days was Daniel tested? - 10. How many virgins were tested in Matthew 25? - 10. How many days of testing are mentioned in Revelation? - 10.
So every two weeks or how often you get paid you take a test. Whom are you going to thank and honor? Will you believe that 90% of God blessing will go further than 10%? That is the test!!!!!!! Are you going to live your life by faith or what the enemy is going to tell you as He did Eve? God said eat from the tree of life. Satan says eat from the tree of knowledge of Good and evil. The word of God always say bring the tithe. It never says give because you can't give what does not belong to you. Give means offering.
According to the bible there is only two things you can do with a tithe - You can bring it to Gods house or you can steal it.
Ever since the time of your ancestors you have turned away from my decrees and have not kept them. Return to me, and I will return to you,” says the Lord Almighty. “But you ask, ‘How are we to return?’ 8 “Will a mere mortal rob God? Yet you rob me. “But you ask, ‘How are we robbing you?’ “In tithes and offerings. 9 You are under a curse—your whole nation—because you are robbing me. 10 Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this,” says the Lord Almighty, “and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that there will not be room enough to store it. 11 I will prevent pests from devouring your crops, and the vines in your fields will not drop their fruit before it is ripe,” says the Lord Almighty. 12 “Then all the nations will call you blessed, for yours will be a delightful land,” says the Lord Almighty. Malachi 3:7-12 NIV
Jesus says, "What sorrow awaits you teachers of religious law and you Pharisees. Hypocrites! For you are careful to tithe even the tiniest income from your herb gardens, but you ignore the more important aspects of the law--justice, mercy, and faith. You should tithe, yes, but do not neglect the more important things. Matthew 23:23 NLT
Are you stealing from God? The scripture says that they took tithe money to betray Jesus! The scripture says it like this, "Lord, have we not cast out Devils in your name?" Jesus states, "I don't know who you are." When you don't return what belongs to God you become a slave in bondage.
