SORRY TITHING TEACHERS AND "TITHERS;" THERE IS NO SUCH THING. YOU TITHING TEACHERS ARE DECEIVING LIARS, AND YOUR LIES WILL FIND YOU OUT SOMEDAY...YOU CAN COUNT ON IT;

"But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.

And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not. For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment; And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly;

And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, making them an ensample unto those that after should live ungodly; And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked: For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds; The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished:"

   - 2nd Peter 2:1-9

"For there are many unruly and vain talkers and deceivers, specially they of the circumcision: WHO'S MOUTHS MUST BE STOPPED, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, FOR FILTHY LUCRE'S SAKE."

   - Titus 1:10-11

REBUKE THE DEVOURER FOR YOUR SAKE?

Tithing teachers will often attempt to deceive people into tithing to them (handing over 10% of their income) by claiming that by doing so God will "rebuke the devourer for your sakes." 

The devourer, of course, being debt, financial problems, the devil, and anything the tither believes is being "devoured" (or taken from them) in their lives that they believe they should posses.

The scriptures tithing teachers refer to are these often used verses...

"Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine 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 it. And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, saith the LORD of hosts." - Malachi 3:10-11

The sad part of all of this is that for the New Testament Church, that is to say for New Testament Believers, God has already done something for us SO MUCH GREATER than merely rebuking a devourer for us based on Old Testament tithing instructions.

JESUS' TRIUMPH OVER DEATH, THE GRAVE AND HELL

We have no need to tithe in an attempt to motivate God to rebuke the devourer for us, God has done far more than that for us. God has handed satan THE ULTIMATE INFINATELY POWERFUL REBUKE which is eternal, utterly devastating and DID NOT REQUIRE ANYONE TO TITHE ANYTHING! 

Satan, and anything he would attempt to use to devour us, has been rebuked FOREVER by Jesus' perfect sacrifice on the cross and Jesus' triumphant resurrection! There is NO STRONGER REBUKE POSSIBLE.

Concerning satan being rebuked by God, the word of God says this...

"Having disarmed principalities and powers, He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it." - Colossians 2:15 ...THAT IS WHAT I CALL A REBUKE!!

Colossians 2:15 states that Christ “disarmed the rulers and authorities.” To whom does this phrase refer? The combination of “rulers and authorities” appears elsewhere in Paul’s writings in reference to human authorities (See; Titus 3:1), but more often it applies to spiritual powers (See; Ephesians 3:10; 6:12). When we compare Colossians with Ephesians (its parallel epistle), we see that “thrones, dominions, rulers, and authorities” are obviously spiritual entities, whether angels or demons (See; Ephesians 1:21; 2:2; 3:10; 6:12).

The word of God also tells us this...

"Since therefore the children share in flesh and blood, he himself likewise partook of the same things, that through death he might DESTROY the one who has the power of death, that is, the devil, and deliver all those who through fear of death were subject to lifelong slavery." - Hebrews 2:14-15

"No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us." - Romans 8:37

CONCLUSION

If you are a New Testament Believer, YOU DO NOT NEED to give ten percent of your income TO ANYONE in order for God to give you victory over the devil, the devourer, or anything!

Anyone telling you that you must tithe to them, or to anyone, for God to give you victory IS A LIAR.

Satan, the devourer, has been eternally REBUKED for your sake, on your behalf, THAT IS ALREADY REALITY.

How do we live in the victory God has given us? By believing God's Word who tells us...

1 John 4:4...

“Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.”

1 John 5:4...

“For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.”

1 Corinthians 15:57...

“But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.”

DON'T TITHE TO ANYONE; all they're trying to do is sell you something GOD HAS ALREADY GIVEN TO YOU AS A GIFT.
