Myth—Giving 10% Is A Tithe

Listen to what Timothy taught us about the Word. Then, ask yourself

which parts of God’s Word (Scripture) you do not want to hear about. If you don’t like all of God’s Word, you should find a church of Satan to feed your itching ears. Otherwise, you should take heed to the prophecy of God and learn to love the truth of [all] His Holy Word. You simply cannot have

it both ways. No amount of mouthing Jesus as your Lord will offset your failure to love the truth. A minister that teaches giving a tithe is required of you is an outright liar and in the end, he or she will get exactly what they deserve. According to Revelation, liars will not enter the kingdom of God.

Ask your minister to repent and get straight with God or leave the ministry.

“Every Scripture is God breathed (given by His inspiration) and profitable for instruction, for reproof and conviction of sin, for correction of error and discipline in obedience,

[and] for training in righteousness (in holy living, in conformity to God’s will in thought, purpose, and action). So that the man of God may be complete and proficient, well fitted and thoroughly equipped for every good work.”

2 Timothy 3:16-17 AMP

“Blessed (happy and to be envied) are those who cleanse their garments, that they may have the authority and right to [approach] the tree of life and to enter through the gates into the city. [But] without are the dogs and those who

practice sorceries (magic arts) and impurity [the lewd, adulterers] and the murderers and idolaters and everyone who loves and deals in falsehood (untruth, error, deception, cheating).” Rev. 22:14-15 AMP

Clearly the teaching in Revelation 22 pertains directly to the false tithe teaching of the church. Ministers do actually “love and deal” in the “falsehood of the tithe.” Listen, just because your minister or prophet of God may have a multi-million dollar ministry, do you honesty think that it

matters to God? What matters is the truth and who will obey it. If you think that the multi-million dollar ministry pulpit should take priority over God’s Word, you are one of those whom Jesus will say: “I never knew you.” Trust me, he will also tell the same thing to the false teacher that you serve.
