DID YOU NOTICE SOMETHING?
Did you notice how "convincing" those 41 points were? Yes, to many Christians they are convinced they must tithe because of statements made by tithing teachers like the ones above (and many more) that fool gullible poorly taught New Testament Believers into handing over ten percent of their income to deceptive liars.
Yet, in reality, NOT A SINGLE STATEMENT ABOVE IN THE LIST is backed by scripture in proper context, and are nothing more than false teaching not backed by the truth of God's word. They are the deceptive traditions of men, the claims of false teachers, designed to deceive and fool unlearned Christians.
The word of God warns us (I STRONGLY SUGGEST THAT YOU READ THEM ALL);
"And with all delusion of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved." - 2 Thessalonians 2:10
1 Timothy 6:5 - "Perverse disputings (or claims) of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself."
Matthew 15:3 - "But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?"
Titus 1:10-11 - "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."
Acts 17:11 - "These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so."
2 Timothy 4:3 - "For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they draw to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto MYTHS."
Matthew 15:6b - "Thus have ye made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition."
Mark 7:13 - "Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye."
Hebrews 5:11-14 - "Of whom we have many things to say, and hard to be uttered, seeing ye are dull of hearing. For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat. For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe. But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil."
>> FOOTNOTE; If you believe that any one of the 41 points above are true and biblical, feel free to tell us which one and provide SCRIPTURE to prove your claim. But, be careful...
Proverbs 30:6 "Do not add to His Words, lest He reprove you and you be found a liar."
