Tithe Stewardship & Church Tithing

Not that i agree with everything this guy is saying, he still presents a good perspective on the tithing error.

1Then it came to pass, at the end of two full years, that Pharaoh had a dream; and behold, he stood by the river. 2Suddenly there came up out of the river seven cows, fine looking and fat; and they fed in the meadow. 3Then behold, seven other cows came up after them out of the river, ugly and gaunt, and stood by the other cows on the bank of the river. 4And the ugly and gaunt cows ate up the seven fine looking and fat cows. So Pharaoh awoke. 5He slept and dreamed a second time; and suddenly seven heads of grain came up on one stalk, plump and good. 6Then behold, seven thin heads, blighted by the east wind, sprang up after them. 7And the seven thin heads devoured the seven plump and full heads. So Pharaoh awoke, and indeed, it was a dream. 8Now it came to pass in the morning that his spirit was troubled, and he sent and called for all the magicians of Egypt and all its wise men. And Pharaoh told them his dreams, but there was no one who could interpret them for Pharaoh.

25Then Joseph said to Pharaoh, “The dreams of Pharaoh are one; God has shown Pharaoh what He is about to do: 26The seven good cows are seven years, and the seven good heads are seven years; the dreams are one. 27And the seven thin and ugly cows which came up after them are seven years, and the seven empty heads blighted by the east wind are seven years of famine. 28This is the thing which I have spoken to Pharaoh. God has shown Pharaoh what He is about to do. 29Indeed seven years of great plenty will come throughout all the land of Egypt; 30but after them seven years of famine will arise, and all the plenty will be forgotten in the land of Egypt; and the famine will deplete the land. 31So the plenty will not be known in the land because of the famine following, for it will be very severe. 32And the dream was repeated to Pharaoh twice because the thing is established by God, and God will shortly bring it to pass.

For those of you who want to know why Senator Grassley is investigating the Benny Hinn Scandal, here is a video that shows how Benny Hinn likes to spend God’s money. For those of you who are giving money to this Benny Hinn Scandal, you are just as guilty because you are empowering him. Here is a video also on the Paula White Scandal.

I don’t know much about John Piper, so i don’t know much of what he believes. But i’ve got to hand it to him here in this video. He says it straight up. He nails the prosperity false gospel on the head.

CBS news aired a video on tithing called “To Tithe or Not to Tithe”. It had interviewed both arguments from both sides of the debate. There recently was a story published by the Wall Street Journal, The Backlash Against Tithing, and i don’t feel that the WSJ did a very good job at all displaying the arguments for freewill giving. CBS news did a much better job. See the To Tithe or Not to Tithe video below.

Here’s a video about tithing, spoofing off of that old Christmas classic “it’s a wonderful life”

Here is a humorous video about tithing.
