Are You Cursed If You Don't Tithe? by Nobody: 1:34pm On Sep 15, 2012
Ye are cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed me, even this whole nation. (Mal. 3:9)

God had given Israel the Law over one thousand years before the prophet Malachi spoke those words. God told Israel very clearly what the blessing would be for keeping the Law and what the curse would be for breaking it. Over the years Israel broke it repeatedly and suffered the curse as punishment. That was the nature of their covenant.

[size=14pt]There is no curse upon us in Christ. It isn't part of our covenant. Jesus bore it and completely redeemed us from it.[/size]

Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: (Gal. 3:13)
Those who teach that there is a curse for not tithing are contradicting the most basic truths of the New Covenant. However, if you put yourself back under the Law you will put yourself under the curse.

For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them. (Gal. 3:10)

Life in Christ works by a different spiritual process, which is not compatible with the Old Covenant paradigm.

Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; (Rom. 4:16)

We sat there every Sunday in church dreading for the moment the session for tithes and offering will start.

And then it happened.

'Praise the Lord , now open your bibles to Malachi 3 :8-12

8 “Will a mere mortal rob God? Yet you rob me.

“But you ask, ‘How are we robbing you?’

“In tithes and offerings. 9 You are under a curse—your whole nation—because you are robbing me. 10 Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this,” says the Lord Almighty, “and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that there will not be room enough to store it. 11 I will prevent pests from devouring your crops, and the vines in your fields will not drop their fruit before it is ripe,” says the Lord Almighty. 12 “Then all the nations will call you blessed, for yours will be a delightful land,” says the Lord Almighty.


Then the Pastor continues :

'That's why some of you are jobless and suffering lack in your life, marital problems , no wife , no husband , sickness and all sorts of mishaps.

You do not pay your tithes ! thats why . '


Pause


And then the Pastor bellows :

' 10% of your gross not net income '


and that is for starters, offerings follow with more offerings for various projects.


By the time they are finished with YOU , it's like , how are we gonna eat , pay the bills , send money back home etc


Anyway the sheeple comply and pay their last widows mite , not to the widows , orphans or needy but to their pastor and his church. They take Caesar's money and pay the whole lot to 'GOD' .


Instead of things getting better , they actually get worse , the sheeple start taking overdraft and more debt to survive, even though the bible says 'owe no man anything , but Love '.

Then they get into debt, depression , arguments at home, while the pastor and church are laughing all the way to the bank.


This is what many children of God who are too lazy to study their bibles are put through very Sunday.


They are like cows with large breasts full of warm milk going to to be milked by their pastors till the breast are saggy and nothing left for the cows to feed their own children with.

These false teachers have their judgement coming very fast

In their greed these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping - 2 Peter 2:3

"For such people are not serving our Lord Christ, but their own appetites. By smooth talk and flattery they deceive the minds of naive people." - Romans 16:18


[size=15pt]Charlatans all of them, without exception.[/size]


Be warned.
