- Elder Bednar teaches new members in Peru about the principle of tithing.
Concepts include:
1. Tithing is not about money - it is about faith.
2. Your earnings aren't yours - they are from God. Tithing simply gives God back a portion of what you have been given.
3. Even poor people should make paying tithing a priority.

If tithing is not about the money, then give your 100 billion dollars to the poor and the needy. Even just a quarter of your 100 billion dollars.
If only the church itself is transparent about their money. If only they would give 10% of their income to charity.
It’s not about money? The Church doesn’t need money? Here’s some beans then, enjoy!
Just remember, you can't enter the celestial kingdom unless you give the church your money. You can sugarcoat it all you want but that's a fact
He forgot the part about you have to pay tithing (along with the many, many, many, many, many other mormon commandments) to qualify to enter the temple where you will be expected to make vows of which you have no prior knowledge, one of which will be a promise to consecrate everything else you have to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. The way this church applies the law of tithing is completely non-biblical. And they teach if you don't do these things you won't earn the right to be in the part of Heaven where God the Father and Jesus are, nor will you be able to see your more righteous family members again. Members are also expected to always obey and never criticize the elders even if what they say is wrong, or even illegal, or is just lying for the Lord.
so utterly insane and wicked for them to say we cant even critisize them even if they are doing illegal things! really nauseating I can't believe just this year I've started to really find evidential b.s. of the church I won't go in the temple again only for family purposes but I will not sit in that room, chant and do rituals and expect to take things seriously..
It's a cult. I was once a member, but my conscience wouldn't allow me to stay. It's evil.
pay lay ale pay lay ale pay lay ale IM BLESSED
I died at this old chant!!!!
I met with him once. Only have one word to describe him: Arrogant.
Where did you meet ? We used to live close my me . I wish I would have went over and kick him in him arrrogent ass.
So it's come to light that they're hoarding 100 BILLION dollars in cash. Do they not see that people are starving? God damn them! These are the wicked! I'm ashamed to admit I was once a Mormon.
but but.. oh we need our mormon malls
Sad for you
The Mormon Twelfth article of faith states: "We believe in being subject to kings, presidents, rulers, and magistrates, in obeying, honoring, and sustaining the law." , but what the church says and what it's leadership does don't always line up. This is what the church actually does with a lot of members tithing.

tithing obligations are for Jewish, Christians are not oblige for tithes, however members should set aside some money every first day of the week for their Pastors like what Apostol Paul did to 1 Cor. 16:2, according to their joyful act so that Pastors can survive and continue preaching and teaching the Gospel.. that means, tithing is for the Levites and joyful giving are for Pastors.
This guy is a creep!
It's not about money? Then why do they want you to pay in money? All the consequences of your actions (capacity to work and earn) are because of God, not you! Wouldn't all your sins be his fault as well then? Or does agency only exist when you want to do "evil"? You don't own anything, but God just said you get to have(own) the 90%... if it's already his, why does it have to be "given to him" does he not already possess it? Or does an all powerful being not have the power to hold what is his?
Why is it that god’s messengers always say god’s message is to give money to god’s messengers?
Good question
When I first learned about the church I never even heard of the word tithing not even the word baptism before and I didn't know what the full story of Jesus was and never knew he was resurrected I always believed that he just died and I never knew that the trick bleed in his second coming. Before I didn't want to pay tithing or when I was younger I just paid it every now and then and just paid what I want it to. But now that I'm older now it's even in the Bible Angie's even taught the importance of giving and not being foolish with money. Every time when I get my paycheck deposited into my bank account the first thing I do is go online and pay my tithing we're before I paid it on a money order and gave it to the bishop or counselors with that envelope. I'm happy to say now that I've seen Miracles and blessings come from tithing and giving.
sucker
Being a preacher is quite a job and Mr. Bednar needs your support!
This man gives me the creeps! If ever there were a potential cult leader, it is this guy! He speaks with so much self-infused authority about his right to fraudulently obtain the widow’s mite to add to their 124 Billion dollar fund which could sustain the organization without $1 being paid as tithing! Such arrogance and greed is breathtakingly scary,
Ok so what private yatch does he party on with celebrities, expensive liquor, prostitutes, etc.? It’s not a sin to save money for the famines and calamities that will come. It’s a sin to squander the widow’s mite for self indulgent pleasure and status like the Pharisees did. These men gave their whole life savings to the church and work 80 hour weeks teaching the gospel when they could just enjoy retirement.
Every time I hear this man I go away shaking my head in disbelief. This nonsense about the Lord doesn't need your money, but you need the blessings of paying tithes. Bednar dreams up these kinds of childish rationale all the time.
I gave sooo much money to that criminal enterprise, believing it was gods will and tithing would reward me materially. Every time I got a bonus or found a dime on the street, I’d think yay it’s true. Welp. When I stopped giving it to them, I still got bonuses, found $ on the street, doubled my mortgage payments, and livin life. Now I can donate to charities that actually do good and aren’t building $25 million temples and $3 billion malls.
So in other words the Mormon church is God’s official collection agency, for us to pay our monthly subscription for access to breathable air etc?
Yeah. Better pay up or else God will cut your air off.
Is there no end to Mormon lies and extortion?
Best comment ever
All these blessings he speaks of happen to people that don't pay tithing To the mormon church or any church for that matter
TheMBROO EXACTLY!! I left the LDS church and I am still living a comfortable life...WAIT, it’s actually more comfortable. I think I do really understand the Plan or Happiness!! Hahaha
Just ask Jeff Bezos.
@@susieholland671 good for you
And yet General authorities don’t pay tithes nor taxes. Why won’t the church give back of what they robbed from God? 100 billion dollars from tithe money that should have been used for charity purposes. These men are preaching false doctrine and don’t eve realize it.
I loved this! Where do you find all these gems! I love how he said "the Church does not need your money" This helps me to better understand tithing. Thank you!
It’s a matter of obedience. My dad told me the same thing growing up. He said the church will still move on whether you donate tithing or not.
@@hayla23 Amen! thank you. I know this channel is meant to attract and shake the faith of members of the church, but even with carefully edited words of the leaders, you can still feel of their great love and faith. It still lifts me.
Yeah with 200 billion dollars they don't need your money so you should stop giving it to them
@@hayla23 then why do you have to give that money to the church? Why can’t you give that money to people in need? Why doesn’t that count if the church doesn’t need it? I mean as soon as you do a little questioning all their fallacies fall apart. It’s just ridiculous ah and remember it’s 10% before taxes otherwise the blessings will not be available for you, that sounds more like extortion and a business transaction.
What I find funny is the people who criticize general authorities and doctrine of the church. If you hate it so much, what the hell are you doing watching Elder Bednar speak. If this is not for you, then go about your merry business and never look back.
To use God to inspire people to gift to your Church is wrong, particularly when you refuse to itemize what those gifts are going toward. I’d have a problem with your church saying it and when my Catholic mother said it I disagreed with her as well. Give freely or not at all.
@@suigeneris2663 tithing is voluntary for members. No one is forced to pay. I pay tithing and some more. How the church leaders spend it I don’t care. Fulfilled my duty by paying their duty is to handle the money responsibly. If you are not a member or if you don’t pay tithing then it is no concern of yours
Because they truly want to fight the evil in this world, and the evil posing as goodness is the worst kind. Any moral person knowing the truth is obligated to expose it for what it is.
@@robertbruceperry2436 Well if your voluntarily giving money away. I will send you my bank account information😁. 10% of whatever you have leftover will do.
Think of it this way. You get your 10% back by learning from this FREE FREE FREE video!
Jeff Bezos isn't Mormon nor very religious wealthiest man in the world by far. Does God give him all that blessing he doesn't pay tithing.
@A P he is stil worth 200 mil
He’s a good businessman. He went to Jesus and got salvation for free.
Kidding, he’s an awful person.
To summarize: Faith will give one powers of God, and if you want that to happen then pay tithing because even the air you breathe is from God, it's all his you are nothing, so pay tithing if you want blessings. After all all this is just materiel and will turn to dust, so pay tithing because that's how we build these nice buildings. And remember just because you pay tithing that doesn't mean you get blessings you want you may not even see the blessings, but they are there.
To Analyze: Holy shit, this is a complete con, please people run away and save you money from this crook in a Brooks Brothers suite collecting a six figure paycheck from the church, and free education and housing.
It's easy enough: God is not cheap with me, and I'm not going to be cheap with Him.
Is He the LDS tho?
Can't believe they are still implying a prosperity gospel to the poor; at least a you'll-be-fine gospel.
The single most important doctrine of the corporate church!
It is a gospel principle of faith obedience and sacrifice. The Lord has shown me this and there are beautiful blessings attached to these principles which l have received the greatest blessings being an inner peace comfort and joy . Praise the Lord.

A professional manipulator beautifully speaking. God condemns liars Elder Bednar, your are leading people astray, can you imagine were your soul is going to end up at Elder Bednar? I certainly would not like to be in your shoes.
"Tithing is NOT about money" ... BUTTT... if you don't give them that thing that it's not about the NO EXALTATION FOR YOU BUDDY!!
You fucking said it!
If tithing isn’t about money, then there is no reason to send god any money.
Tithing is not a Biblical requirement for Christians, free will offerings and gifts are to be given with a cheerful heart, according to New Testament teaching.
In Mormonism, a proven history of tithing exclusively to the LDS church/corporation (it is both) is a absolute prerequisite for a 'Temple recommend', and it's claimed benefits, ie, 'worthiness', Eternal marriage status, priesthood status and exaltation to personal God hood etc.
All such Temple works are done in strict obedience and devotion to the teachings and dictates of one man , Joseph Smith, the church's founder.
Please read and trust the Holy Bible as God's complete and finished revelation to all mankind through all the ages, (Mormons don't unfortunately).
Kind regards to all, especially Mormon folk.
...says the elder who gets paid ~$160K/year from The Corporation of The Church (TM), which is now worth easily over $200 billion, and is himself exempt from paying tithing--by their own rules.
By their fruits, ye shall know them. Blatant hypocrisy...
I am literally so grateful for Tithing. I'm so blessed to be a member of Jesus Christ's church. ♥️ I love all of the commandments, they truly bless my life and help me feel closer to Heaven.
Lmaoooo I’m deddddd
I thank God that I worship Jesus Christ - a nice hippie-type that kept His hands to Himself, never asked for money, and probably forgave Joseph Smith for using His name to commit horrible transgressions upon women and men alike.
The men who flew planes into the world trade center had great religious faith, they knew beyond the shadow of a doubt that Islam is the true religion and they felt blessed that they could carry out Allah's will as they flew the planes into the trade center and they knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that they would be instantly transported to Paradise when the planes crashed into the towers. You see faith is a bad thing faith can lead you to commit atrocities, Faith teaches you to accept things for which there's no evidence and if there is such a thing as sin I think that accepting things without solid evidence is one
Me too
sucker!
Why are your videos edited? Constant cut aways. Seems weird
He is talking to a congregation through a translator. The video was edited to cut out his repeated words in that langue of the translator.
I could only watch half of it because I was becoming ill. Him and his criminal buddies are sick evil men.
Wow
So therefore the air that we breathe is owned by the Mormon church.
Young Guava sounds like a sequel to Spaceballs. He doesn’t look Druish. 🤣
@Young Guava No, it (and everything else) was created by God. Technically the name of the "mormon" church is the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and within that Church is the restoration of all things found in the Bible, including the law of the tithe (which is mentioned in Genesis 14:20, Numbers 18:26, Malachi 3:10, and more). Whether you believe in God and His laws is your choice, but the law of the tithe is not new, and all things are God's.
@@later4524 you mentioned all of these quotes from the Bible. Yet you don't have any clue that old testament accounts came from the influence of Canaanite religion with a little bit of egyptian religion. God El of Canaanite is also God El of Israelites.
Woke liberation is faith without works + Life eternal 👎
This bloke is hardcore! :D
He is a multi millionaire speaking to very poor people!
What a bunch of B.S. He sounds like a white version of a 70s vintage Rev. Ike.
Blessings is such a nebulous term. You can never get them to nail down exactly what blessings you will receive. It's always "he'll bless you in the way that you need to be blessed." In other words, invest, then since you feel an investment and commitment the next good thing that happens you will interpret as a blessing from your sacrifice. Blessings, let's just call them what they really are: Bullshit.
@acronen The reason you never hear what specific blessings you'll receive is because it depends on the person. The Lord's word (as found in Malachi 3:10) is the "Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the the Lord of hosts, if I will not open the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it." Therefore, the blessing you receive is what the Lord knows you need and is far beyond what you give up. I expect what you would need is different from my needs, or the needs of your/my neighbor next door. The Lord is not limited by what we perceive as possibilities, and truly can you quantify what miracles could take place.
If you've never paid tithing then you don't know that blessings won't come; prove the Lord and THEN make your judgement. As one who has experience in paying tithing, I have seen miracles that could have only come from God. I'm not rich, but I've always been blessed - to make enough and to have what I NEED. And even if you don't trust the Lord to give you a blessing, why do you care if others are willing to trust Him?
Works and grace don't mix...
I think I understand.... the corporation keeps 90% and gives back 10% to build Tempe’s and buildings. Is that how they’ve amassed 100 billion?
"Tithing isn't about money. Your earnings aren't yours - it's from God."
If God really wants 10% of my money, she is welcome to have it any time. She just needs to come and ask me for it personally. The LDS church however, has nothing to do with any perfect, loving God at all and deserves none of my money!
Comes out so condescending....
My brother in law had I guy in his ward get up one fast Sunday and bare his testimony about the law of tithing. He paid his tithing and then went to Wendover, NV gambling and hit the jackpot. So God blessed him for paying his tithing. how insane is that. lol people's minds.
Pure B.S. fabricated story. The Mormon Church encourages members to make-up such lies.

The church of the unending dollar.
The truth in spirit flows eternally forward the body lies to the spirit and it flows eternally reverse/revere from truth, those who are stuck in the material plain will live Revelation and those who follow after the spirit find truth, what Jesus did was healed the spirit and the body. Those who seek the end in Revelations will find it and those who seek the truth in the beginning will find the veil leaving their eyes. Judgement comes to only those who judge, you have your will of creation upon all creation so judge not less ye be, judged yourself. All is forgiven, death/darkness took possession of all word, it is only his fault. Everything I've learned, I have learned on my own. I have never read the Bible till after I had my dreams with Jesus, he himself explained things to me. I explained everything in my book. Everyone has all word of creation upon them, each word has their own cell of aura, it is a firmament as this Galactic cell is the body of Christ, it has an aura and you are a word of creation within the body of Christ, you live the body of Christ and he has already died for your sins, that has enabled him as The Lord of Hosts. Within the handshake of all things, Jesus was the Body, he lived the experience of the spirit of the most high and the will of the father is the will within the body of Christ he gets to live the body of Christ with no powers, only faith, he will only present himself by the word and he stands firm with all the word. Genesis, Moses is not leading us into the book of word he is leading us out, back to the beginning. (Example) God placed a firmament between all the word and us as word have been placed within a six feet firmament caused by the corona-tion/crown lasted a year. Next is the (word was God) goes on all this year. Next year the word will start understanding these things and it will be, the (word was with God.) Next year after the word will have their full understanding of these things and God will be one with (the Word) as they are the bride to the body of Messiah, then Jesus by will, have ascended to the father, Jesus is proof that even death will experience life. (Bible says, God comes by the truth of your heart is your crown)means/corona, it is also your body and your Galactic cell upon Omega. We are the word of God and our actions are the signs of word, welcome to the corona/tion. Each sentence in the Bible is a sentence from order and each sentence is a year sentence as (1 in the beginning was the word) and (2 the word was with God) and (3 the word was God) (4 and the corona/crown has placed us as word six feet of firmament from each other.) Truth of word flows eternally forward as the distortion of truth is number, numb/cold power numb/ber. The multitudes are being taken back from death/darkness as legion is many, took everything from all the word. The light in the darkness is this grain of earth within this universal body and it is protecting all of life as you have a Galactic cell out there and this Galactic cell we are in right now is the body of Christ, you live the body of Christ within Omega as you have all word/will of creation upon you, within each cell is a throne, for all word of creation, you have your will/word of creation upon equal me/a/sure, you are a universal body, when this is over you will be shown all your action and consequence upon your Galactic realm and when trust is earnt you will claim your universal body again, within this multiverse. (universe/unity of verse/unity of word. I wrote a book it is all over the world, the book is called, The last shall be the first and the first shall be the last by Joseph Darrell Walker. If you know the Bible then you will know everything. Voices in head are not mental, think positive and legion as he is many will leave. Genesis/Moses isn't leading us into the darkness, he is walking us out of it, so read 4,3,2,1, and it will make better sense. All things fall, back to GOD, Isaiah 11;12. The more you wake people up, by that measure has woke up unto you so speak truth to the fullest and you will find faith walking within you. gfx
How much money do they make from their multiple businesses, including that mall?
He’s saying everything that you are and have is God’s, not of you. It just strikes me how horribly dehumanised and powerless his remarks could make one feel inside. The mentality of conforming unquestioningly strips people of their true uniqueness and strength as individuals.
The God of gods does not need our money. The God of gods has not shown you to be his representative...
Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse,that there may be meat in my house, and prove me now herewith, saith the lord of hosts,if I will not open you the windows of heaven,and pour you out a blessing that there shall not be room enough to receive.
Its a con artist. Dont pay him anything.
What BS. 🙄🙄🙄🙄
He says if you don't have a job Just just work harder easy for him to say while Mormons give him money and he sits on his but
He isn’t a convincing conman. 🤢
I want my money back. I could do so much with it!
Are you no longer remember? Heavenly Father promised us still open the windows of Heaven if we pay tithes and if you don't eyes were robbing him because what heavenly father has given us is really his and giving back to just 10% is the way to show gratitude and faith
It is to about money. You have to pay to be exalted in this corporation.
Just another version of socialism.
In what way is the money that we earn "God's"? He didn't literally create us since we know how babies are born. Even a faithful answer involves "well, God created everything in the beginning" and appeals to the idea that all of the results are his even though he did none of the work. Just imagine the backlash you would get if you were to try to pull that same nonsense with your children: "Now see Timmy, because we birthed you, we technically own everything you will ever do so all we ask is 50% of your profits. Forever. It's a fair deal, right? We brought you into existence, so you need to give something back to us. We do this because we love you! And we want to bless you by allowing you to exist." In this scenario, God is an unbelievable narcissist who thinks he is owed everything for a tiny amount of initial work.
"Tithing isn't about money" WTF???
The LDS church has amassed a $100 billion investment portfolio whit tithing money. There should not be a single LDS member living in poverty to my thinking, but hey, maybe God is looking to retire soon and needs a nice nest egg so he can do some traveling and hang out at the golf course.
I think Darth Bednar has used too many force lightning bolts if you know what I mean. He better be careful if he wants to be the Profit. He is gonna have to ease up on dem bolts

No !
Even if true message of video still correct. There is nothing in scriptures that defines and requires modern day law of tithing as instituted by Mormon church. Yes Mormon church. Even though President Nelson wants us to rename ourselves so the outside world will disassociate ourselves from our history.
