I was 17 years old when I found the truth through an Adventist family. I was touch by their beautiful character, they were just very nice couple. Since then, I was very faithful in my tithes and offering and JESUS blessed me more than I could ever imagine. I have 3 children and they all go to an Adventist school I don't even know how because we are struggling financially But God works in a miraculous way when we are faithful to HIM. 🙏💞

Regarding lotteries - AMEN!!! I also tried that sin for a whole year (I think) and was NOT successful. Kicked that habit now. Sometimes the old serpent will tempt and torment me with news of lottery winnings, but I have learnt to ignore it. It is not worth it. Pay your tithes and offerings rather.
What you said about tough love and somebody being codependent that really is what I'm going through right now with somebody and he is bringing me down bad.

"people go in the grave when they die". The body is destroyed into ashes in the grave, so where goes people's spirit, considering they have to be back in their restored body the day of resurrection ? And also considering Jesus at the moment of his death saying " father into thy hands I commend my spirit", proving there is separate ways for the dead body and the spirit.

The Offerings of the Lord the SECOND TITHE! The children of Israel are our ensamples, that while we should imitate their faithfulness and virtues, we should shun those sins which brought the displeasure of God upon them. {RH, July 10, 1879 par. 13} The Second Tithe and Its Object. To promote the assembling of the people for religious service, as well as to provide for the poor, a second tithe of all the increase was required. Concerning the first tithe, the Lord had declared, "I have given the children of Levi all the tenth in Israel." Numbers 18:21. But in regard to the second He commanded, "Thou shalt eat before the Lord thy God, in the place which He shall choose to place His name there, the tithe of thy corn, of thy wine, and of thine oil, and the firstlings of thy herds and of thy flocks; that thou mayest learn to fear the Lord thy God always." Deuteronomy 14:23, 29; 16:11-14. This tithe, or its equivalent in money, they were for two years to bring to the place where the sanctuary was established. After presenting a thank offering to God, and a specified portion to the priest, the offerers were to use the remainder for a religious feast, in which the Levite, the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow should participate. Thus provision was made for the thank offerings and feasts at the yearly festivals, and the people were drawn to the society of the priests and Levites, that they might receive instruction and encouragement in the service of God. Every third year, however, this second tithe was to be used at home, in entertaining the Levite and the poor, as Moses said, "That they may eat within thy gates, and be filled." Deuteronomy 26:12. This tithe would provide a fund for the uses of charity and hospitality. {PP 530.2}/{PH148 7.2} The system of sacrifices and offerings was a most expensive one to ancient Israel. Continual offerings were to be made. But God required nothing less of them, and they did it willingly. Men in our day, who profess to be followers of Jesus Christ, and yet who choose to gratify self and increase their possessions rather than render to God that which he requires of them in tithes, in offerings, and in gifts, and in giving themselves to his service, are inexcusable. The more we do in the cause of our Master, the more we have to do with, and the greater will be our willingness and pleasure in doing. {ST, July 15, 1880 par. 7} One of the means which God has ordained for the advancement of his cause in the world is to bless men with property. He gives them the sunshine and the rain. He causes vegetation to flourish. He gives health, and ability to acquire means. All our blessings come from his bountiful hand. In turn he would have men and women show their gratitude by returning him a portion in tithes and offerings,- -in thank-offerings, in freewill-offerings, in trespass-offerings. Should means flow into the treasury in accordance with this divinely appointed plan,--a tenth of all the increase, and liberal offerings,-- there would be an abundance to carry forward the Lord's work. {RH, February 2, 1911 par. 16} Those who have been made partakers of the grace of God should not be slow to show their appreciation of that gift. They should not look upon the tithe as the limit of their liberality. The Jews were required to bring to God numerous offerings besides the tithe; and shall not we who enjoy the blessings of the gospel, do as much to sustain God's cause as was done in the former, lessfavored dispensation? None should forget to make thank-offerings and free-will offerings to God, that through their instrumentality the precious light that they have received may be borne to others just as worthy as themselves. {RH, August 24, 1886 par. 10} God has made an absolute reservation of a specified portion of our time and our means. To ignore these claims is to rob God. Christians boast that their privileges far exceed those of the Jewish age. Shall we then be content to give less to the cause of God than did his ancient people? The tithe was but a part of their liberalities. Numerous other gifts were required besides the free-will offering, or offering of gratitude, which was then, as now, of perpetual obligation. {RH, May 16, 1882 par. 29} God called for men in the Mosaic dispensation to give the tenth of all their increase. He committed to their trust the things of this life, talents to be improved and returned to him again. He has required a tenth, and this he claims as the very least that man should return to him. He says, I give you nine-tenths, while I require one-tenth; that is mine. When men withhold the one-tenth they rob God. Sin offerings, peace offerings, and thank offerings, were also required in addition to the tenth of the increase. {RH, August 25, 1874 par. 43} The liberality of the Jews in their offerings for religious purposes might well be imitated by Christians. If tithes and offerings were required thousands of years ago, they are much more essential now. The labors of God's servants were then confined almost wholly to the land of Palestine; but the apostles and their successors were commissioned to preach the gospel throughout the world. The people of this dispensation are favored with greater light and blessing than were the Jews; therefore they are placed under even greater obligation to honor God and to advance his cause. {ST, January 10, 1884 par. 19} Ministers have stood directly in the way of the work of God in Ohio. They should stand out of the way, that God may reach His people. They step in between God and His people, and turn aside His purposes. Brother J has exerted an influence in Ohio which he must labor to counteract. I saw that there were those in Ohio who would take the right position with right instructions. They have been willing to sustain the cause of present truth, but have seen so little accomplished that they have become discouraged. Their hands are feeble, and need staying up. I saw that the cause of God is not to be carried forward by pressed offerings. God does not accept such offerings. This matter is to be left wholly to the people. They are not to bring a yearly gift merely, but should also freely present a weekly and monthly offering before the Lord. This work is left to the people, for it is to be to them a weekly, monthly, living test. This tithing system, I saw, would develop character, and manifest the true state of the heart. If the brethren in Ohio have this matter presented before them in its true bearing, and are left to decide for themselves, they will see wisdom and order in the tithing system. {1T 237.1} But there has been a great neglect of duty. Many have withheld means which God claims as His, and in so doing they have committed robbery toward God. Their selfish hearts have not given the tenth of all their increase, which God claims. Neither have they come up to the yearly gatherings with their freewill offerings, their thank offerings, and their trespass offerings. Many have come before the Lord empty-handed. "Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed Me........, that there shall not be room enough to receive it." {3T 510.2} Sin will rest upon us as a people if we do not make most earnest efforts to ascertain those who have donated to the different enterprises who are too poor to give anything. All that they, in the liberality of their souls, have given should be returned to them with an additional gift to relieve their necessities. The raising of money has been carried to extremes. It has left a bad impression on many minds. Making urgent calls is not the best plan of raising means. There has been manifested an indifference to investigate the cases of the poor and make returns to them, that they should not suffer for the necessaries of life. A neglect of our duty in this respect, of becoming acquainted with the necessities of the needy and of relieving their pressing wants by returning means which has been given to advance the cause of God, would be on our part a neglect of our Saviour in the persons of His saints. {3T 510.3} The Claim of Redemption Tithes and offerings for God are an acknowledgment of His claim on us by creation, and they are also an acknowledgment of His claim by redemption. Because all our power is derived from Christ, these offerings are to flow from us to God. They are to keep ever before us the claim of redemption, the greatest of all claims, and the one that involves every other. The realization of the sacrifice made in our behalf is ever to be fresh in our minds and is ever to exert an influence on our thoughts and plans. Christ is to be indeed as one crucified among us. {6T 479.1}
Whoever conceals their sins does not prosper, but the one who confesses and renounces them finds mercy.- Proverbs 28:13 Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord. - Acts 3:19 For the Lord your God is gracious and compassionate. He will not turn his face from you if you return to him. - 2 Chronicles 30:9b Then I acknowledged my sin to you and did not cover up my iniquity. I said, “I will confess my transgressions to the Lord.” And you forgave the guilt of my sin. - Psalm 32:5 .. so many times God promises to forgive us if we repent and turn from our own ways... do not doubt God's willingness to forgive, run to Him, He is doing everything that we might be saved. Blessings to you.
How many are "many"? What percentage of full time preachers are "abusers"? Where can I find that data? Did God say "return" the tithe "except..."? should the honest, dedicated, committed preachers pay for the consequences of the "abusers"?
Dear friend, I certainly understand about unsavory recipients of tithes and offerings, even though the pastor answered that concern very clearly. What you are really saying is that you have no faith that God will oversee the gift as well as to bless the giver. God knows the true motive in your heart as He knows all. Acts 5 tells the story of the consequences of lying to the Holy Spirit, you cannot lie to God. I pray that you will learn to love God just as He loves you. If by chance you are curious, I have been derelict in tithes and offerings for 40 years of my adult life and never did well financially. A few years ago I resolved to be 100% faithful with tithes and offerings, and I have been doing so faithfully. As a result I have been blessed amazingly just as God promised in Malachi 3: 10.
@@sisterbecky411 no i use too, but because of the pandemic i havent go in a while, and right now im on another country, and i was expecting to tithe that tithe in that church i used to go
i mean is kinda mess up the topic, but i think the question was more likely while im not their , and i dont know when i will go back home and im starting to think is a dumb question i did but yea i want to tithe this tithe as soon as possible
@@aniki4530 well, an option is an online transfer to your church. Even I was in the same situation as yours since the pandemic, but we were able to do an online transfer to the church account. That can be done from any country too. Hope that makes it easy for you.
I was in a similar situation as you, over the pandemic when my church was closed. I asked God what I should do with it. He said, "Read James 2:15-16." And then gave me a very detailed way to use that Tithe money until I came back to my church.
I go to church every Sabbath how often should I give a tenth of my earning every Sabbath or is it once a year or how? I switched jobs so right now I don't know what my yearly income is
@April Roberts it depends on your earning cycle. If you get paid monthly then you should take out your 10% when you get paid for the month. That way you make sure you don’t forget or lose track. If you are weekly paid, same thing. Hope this helps 🙂
JUDGEMENT: All are not judged before Jesus comes. Only those are in the temple, means only those professed to be Christians, are judged. Look at the texts: Revelation 11:1-4 - (1) And there was given me a reed like unto a rod: and the angel stood, saying, Rise, and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and them that worship therein. (2) But the court which is without the temple leave out and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months. rod = law of God measure = judgement temple = church gentiles = all people other than Jews forty and two months = 1260 days (1260 years - a day for a year principle) The temple of God is the Church. The court without the Temple is the outer court, where the Catholics are. They even entered the Temple of God and trodden it under foot for 1260 years. Because they were powered to do so. Read the texts again. It is the Catholic church that fulfilled the prophecy of 1260 years, who are not judged beside the gentiles who have not accepted Christ as their Saviour. Therefore, there will a judgement after the Millenium.

Do the Israelites knows and worship Jesus now or maybe another name they worship cause Jesus is not the name given to Joseph and Mary cause the given name was from heaven...Jesus is a Latin words..
Jesus is Just the English version the Jewish version is Yeshua They can call Father ABBA Yahweh or Lord but it does not matter necessarily what title you call him if its a title that is worthy like Father Lord God
I was 17 years old when I found the truth through an Adventist family. I was touch by their beautiful character, they were just very nice couple.

16:11-14. This tithe, or its equivalent in money, they were for two years to bring to the place where
the sanctuary was established. After presenting a thank offering to God, and a specified portion to
the priest, the offerers were to use the remainder for a religious feast, in which the Levite, the
stranger, the fatherless, and the widow should participate. Thus provision was made for the thank
offerings and feasts at the yearly festivals, and the people were drawn to the society of the priests
and Levites, that they might receive instruction and encouragement in the service of God. Every
third year, however, this second tithe was to be used at home, in entertaining the Levite and the
poor, as Moses said, "That they may eat within thy gates, and be filled." Deuteronomy 26:12. This
tithe would provide a fund for the uses of charity and hospitality. {PP 530.2}/{PH148 7.2}
The system of sacrifices and offerings was a most expensive one to ancient Israel. Continual offerings
were to be made. But God required nothing less of them, and they did it willingly. Men in our day,
who profess to be followers of Jesus Christ, and yet who choose to gratify self and increase their
possessions rather than render to God that which he requires of them in tithes, in offerings, and in
gifts, and in giving themselves to his service, are inexcusable. The more we do in the cause of our
Master, the more we have to do with, and the greater will be our willingness and pleasure in doing.
{ST, July 15, 1880 par. 7}
One of the means which God has ordained for the advancement of his cause in the world is to bless
men with property. He gives them the sunshine and the rain. He causes vegetation to flourish. He
gives health, and ability to acquire means. All our blessings come from his bountiful hand. In turn he
would have men and women show their gratitude by returning him a portion in tithes and offerings,-
-in thank-offerings, in freewill-offerings, in trespass-offerings. Should means flow into the treasury
in accordance with this divinely appointed plan,--a tenth of all the increase, and liberal offerings,--
there would be an abundance to carry forward the Lord's work. {RH, February 2, 1911 par. 16}
Those who have been made partakers of the grace of God should not be slow to show their
appreciation of that gift. They should not look upon the tithe as the limit of their liberality. The
Jews were required to bring to God numerous offerings besides the tithe; and shall not we who
enjoy the blessings of the gospel, do as much to sustain God's cause as was done in the former, lessfavored dispensation? None should forget to make thank-offerings and free-will offerings to God,
that through their instrumentality the precious light that they have received may be borne to others
just as worthy as themselves. {RH, August 24, 1886 par. 10}
God has made an absolute reservation of a specified portion of our time and our means. To ignore
these claims is to rob God. Christians boast that their privileges far exceed those of the Jewish age.
Shall we then be content to give less to the cause of God than did his ancient people? The tithe
was but a part of their liberalities. Numerous other gifts were required besides the free-will offering,
or offering of gratitude, which was then, as now, of perpetual obligation. {RH, May 16, 1882 par. 29}
God called for men in the Mosaic dispensation to give the tenth of all their increase. He committed
to their trust the things of this life, talents to be improved and returned to him again. He has
required a tenth, and this he claims as the very least that man should return to him. He says, I give
you nine-tenths, while I require one-tenth; that is mine. When men withhold the one-tenth they rob
God. Sin offerings, peace offerings, and thank offerings, were also required in addition to the tenth
of the increase. {RH, August 25, 1874 par. 43}
The liberality of the Jews in their offerings for religious purposes might well be imitated by
Christians. If tithes and offerings were required thousands of years ago, they are much more
essential now. The labors of God's servants were then confined almost wholly to the land of
Palestine; but the apostles and their successors were commissioned to preach the gospel
throughout the world. The people of this dispensation are favored with greater light and blessing
than were the Jews; therefore they are placed under even greater obligation to honor God and to
advance his cause. {ST, January 10, 1884 par. 19}
Ministers have stood directly in the way of the work of God in Ohio. They should stand out of the
way, that God may reach His people. They step in between God and His people, and turn aside His
purposes. Brother J has exerted an influence in Ohio which he must labor to counteract. I saw that
there were those in Ohio who would take the right position with right instructions. They have been
willing to sustain the cause of present truth, but have seen so little accomplished that they have
become discouraged. Their hands are feeble, and need staying up. I saw that the cause of God is not
to be carried forward by pressed offerings. God does not accept such offerings. This matter is to be
left wholly to the people. They are not to bring a yearly gift merely, but should also freely present a
weekly and monthly offering before the Lord. This work is left to the people, for it is to be to them
a weekly, monthly, living test. This tithing system, I saw, would develop character, and manifest the
true state of the heart. If the brethren in Ohio have this matter presented before them in its true
bearing, and are left to decide for themselves, they will see wisdom and order in the tithing system.
{1T 237.1}
But there has been a great neglect of duty. Many have withheld means which God claims as His,
and in so doing they have committed robbery toward God. Their selfish hearts have not given the
tenth of all their increase, which God claims. Neither have they come up to the yearly gatherings
with their freewill offerings, their thank offerings, and their trespass offerings. Many have come
before the Lord empty-handed. "Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed Me........, that there shall
not be room enough to receive it." {3T 510.2} Sin will rest upon us as a people if we do not make
most earnest efforts to ascertain those who have donated to the different enterprises who are too
poor to give anything. All that they, in the liberality of their souls, have given should be returned to
them with an additional gift to relieve their necessities. The raising of money has been carried to
extremes. It has left a bad impression on many minds. Making urgent calls is not the best plan of
raising means. There has been manifested an indifference to investigate the cases of the poor and make returns to them, that they should not suffer for the necessaries of life. A neglect of our duty in
this respect, of becoming acquainted with the necessities of the needy and of relieving their pressing
wants by returning means which has been given to advance the cause of God, would be on our part
a neglect of our Saviour in the persons of His saints. {3T 510.3}
The Claim of Redemption
Tithes and offerings for God are an acknowledgment of His claim on us by creation, and they are
also an acknowledgment of His claim by redemption. Because all our power is derived from Christ,
these offerings are to flow from us to God. They are to keep ever before us the claim of redemption,
the greatest of all claims, and the one that involves every other. The realization of the sacrifice made
in our behalf is ever to be fresh in our minds and is ever to exert an influence on our thoughts and
plans. Christ is to be indeed as one crucified among us. {6T 479.1}
So if someone had an abortion or someone commits murder and repents will their be forgiveness?
Whoever conceals their sins does not prosper, but the one who confesses and renounces them finds mercy.- Proverbs 28:13
Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord. - Acts 3:19
For the Lord your God is gracious and compassionate. He will not turn his face from you if you return to him. - 2 Chronicles 30:9b
Then I acknowledged my sin to you and did not cover up my iniquity. I said, “I will confess my transgressions to the Lord.” And you forgave the guilt of my sin. - Psalm 32:5
.. so many times God promises to forgive us if we repent and turn from our own ways... do not doubt God's willingness to forgive, run to Him, He is doing everything that we might be saved. Blessings to you.
There are many abusers who make me to not give the 10%. I also believe that this was for the Levitt priest and we are all priest people of God naw.
How many are "many"? What percentage of full time preachers are "abusers"? Where can I find that data? Did God say "return" the tithe "except..."? should the honest, dedicated, committed preachers pay for the consequences of the "abusers"?
@@joseelvir5849 was this for priest? Are we priest of God now?
Dear friend, I certainly understand about unsavory recipients of tithes and offerings, even though the pastor answered that concern very clearly. What you are really saying is that you have no faith that God will oversee the gift as well as to bless the giver. God knows the true motive in your heart as He knows all. Acts 5 tells the story of the consequences of lying to the Holy Spirit, you cannot lie to God. I pray that you will learn to love God just as He loves you.
If by chance you are curious, I have been derelict in tithes and offerings for 40 years of my adult life and never did well financially. A few years ago I resolved to be 100% faithful with tithes and offerings, and I have been doing so faithfully. As a result I have been blessed amazingly just as God promised in Malachi 3: 10.
Since I started to tithe I have had that tithe saved, what do I do with that tithe that I have saved?
Do you not attend a church? And if not, where do you get your spiritual guidance from. It is the place that feeds you that you should support
@@sisterbecky411 no i use too, but because of the pandemic i havent go in a while, and right now im on another country, and i was expecting to tithe that tithe in that church i used to go
i mean is kinda mess up the topic, but i think the question was more likely while im not their , and i dont know when i will go back home and im starting to think is a dumb question i did but yea i want to tithe this tithe as soon as possible
@@aniki4530 well, an option is an online transfer to your church. Even I was in the same situation as yours since the pandemic, but we were able to do an online transfer to the church account. That can be done from any country too. Hope that makes it easy for you.
I was in a similar situation as you, over the pandemic when my church was closed. I asked God what I should do with it. He said, "Read James 2:15-16." And then gave me a very detailed way to use that Tithe money until I came back to my church.
I go to church every Sabbath how often should I give a tenth of my earning every Sabbath or is it once a year or how? I switched jobs so right now I don't know what my yearly income is
I believe that its when you get paid, most people get payed biweekly. So its good to give offerings every week and tithe every second week
@April Roberts it depends on your earning cycle. If you get paid monthly then you should take out your 10% when you get paid for the month. That way you make sure you don’t forget or lose track. If you are weekly paid, same thing. Hope this helps 🙂
JUDGEMENT: All are not judged before Jesus comes. Only those are in the temple, means only those professed to be Christians, are judged. Look at the texts:
Revelation 11:1-4 - (1) And there was given me a reed like unto a rod: and the angel stood, saying, Rise, and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and them that worship therein.
(2) But the court which is without the temple leave out and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months.
rod = law of God
measure = judgement
temple = church
gentiles = all people other than Jews
forty and two months = 1260 days (1260 years - a day for a year principle)
The temple of God is the Church. The court without the Temple is the outer court, where the Catholics are. They even entered the Temple of God and trodden it under foot for 1260 years. Because they were powered to do so. Read the texts again. It is the Catholic church that fulfilled the prophecy of 1260 years, who are not judged beside the gentiles who have not accepted Christ as their Saviour. Therefore, there will a judgement after the Millenium.
apocalypse 13
It is important to highlight how eternal the law of God and faith in Yeshua in these last days of earth's history, the fourth commandment as the seal of God, Revelation 7, Deuteronomy 6-8 and Ezekiel 20-20, will be the great controversy, when the beast tries to invalidate the law of God, putting Sunday in place of the fourth commandment, Saturday, when that happens it will be a sin to buy and sell on weekdays, and it will not be a sin to buy and sell on Sunday, the Adventist must do differently than that the beast says, it will be a sin to buy and sell during the week, when the beast says he can buy and sell, then he must not commit that sin, nor should we receive donations from those who buy and sell during the week, that is the mark of beast, even if you keep the sabbath and buy and sell on weekdays will be marked or sealed if you are obedient to the law of God,
apocalypse 13 marks the beast, don't buy, don't sell, talking about days of the week that Adventists should not buy and sell, Adventists can buy and sell on Sunday, nor receive donations from some people who buy and sell during the week, it will be unholy, when the law of the beast comes, whatever the beast says, Adventists must be doing some other way, the beast says it can't buy on Sunday, so Adventists must buy and sell, the beast says what day of the week they can buy and sell, so Adventists shouldn't buy and sell, 666, 6 days a week they can't buy and sell, the government will be very furious with Adventists, here comes the persecution of the remnants, God gave a little peace, to proclaim the loud cry that has been understood in these last times by the Holy Spirit of God, to proclaim to the United States that it is at greatest risk and to the world
*Pastor
Cause the name of the Heavenly Father isYhwH..,
Why only one singer. Other canot sing.
Do the Israelites knows and worship Jesus now or maybe another name they worship cause Jesus is not the name given to Joseph and Mary cause the given name was from heaven...Jesus is a Latin words..
Jesus is Just the English version the Jewish version is Yeshua
They can call Father ABBA Yahweh or Lord but it does not matter necessarily what title you call him if its a title that is worthy like Father Lord God
Matthew 1:21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.
