Deuteronomy 16:17 and What it means to Tithing!!

 

Deuteronomy 16:17: And What it Means to All People!!

By Anthony Joseph Hopkins June 16, 2022


        Deuteronomy 16:17 states that every man shall give as he is able, according to the blessing of the Lord thy God which he hath given thee.  This particular Bible verse is in the Mosaic Laws.  However, I want to inform everyone that God is being very flexible when it comes to paying tithes and offerings.  I did not know that tithes are supposed to be added to the household budget.  For example, if a person is earning $1,026.00 per month, this means that we will have to pay $126.00 per month in tithes and offerings.



        Next, I want to say that this particular Bible verse is no longer emphasized.  This is simply because we are under the New Covenant.  Although this Bible verse is very nice and generous.  I know that everyone has to pay according as he wishes.  Basically, we are making God angry with us when we do not pay tithes and offerings.  My overall bills come up to $1,026.00 dollars per month.  If I include my tithes and offerings, I will have to pay a total of $126.00 per month. 


Further, I want to inform all of you that some people in Moses time did not have income.  They utilized livestock, silver, and gold.  To be honest, the wages that people earned was not worth anything.  I am not criticizing the way that God did His business.  It is that people worked an entire day for wages.  This is the reason why I wrote an essay concerning people who earned fix incomes do they still have to pay tithes and offerings?  The answer to this question is yes. 



Moreover, I really feel that some of the Old Testament Bible Verses should be emphasized in today’s times.  Right now, it is not very easy for anyone who earns a Disability Check to pay tithes and offerings.  Some do and some do not pay anything to the Church that they attend each week.  I know that my life at this moment has been complicated.  My life has been complicated because I owe student loans and other debts. 

Finally, I want to say that at least God is very flexible with everyone.  I do not want to make God angry with me ever again.  To be honest, I will have to include my 10% of my income to pay tithes and offerings.  I really think God is really giving everyone a break because I have some valuables that I can sell each month for money.  I have a Books are called My Grace is Sufficient for me, and Essays.

 

 

 

 

 

 

  My book is not selling because I could not afford the marketing fees to market my book.  My book is small, and I feel that I can at least accomplish a goal for God.  To be completely honest with all of you, I owe $22,500 dollars in student loans from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte.  I was enrolled in school only for a short period of time.  I graduated from the University of Toledo on June 12, 1993 and June 17, 1995 respectively.  I earned my degree from The University College. 

In Conclusion, I want to inform all of you that I am doing the best I can just to pay bills and survive.  May the God of Peace be with all of you.  I really feel that I have selected an essay that comes right out of the Bible.  It might be from the Old Testament, but I feel that I have knowledge and experience when it comes to the Bible.

God is with me right now

Good Morning and God Bless You 🙌 🙏  I want you to know that I still need your prayers 🙏  I know that My God is a God of Love and Peace.  I have given myself Life to Jesus Christ.   I know that I am still under a lot of pressure from someone who wants to replace me as a person.   This person is a Caucasian man, who  does not like African American People.  My neighbors are a well diverse group of people who used to live in the Southern United States.  My neighbors have access to my Social Media Account and my entire life is at great risk.  This is not a laughing matter because identity theft and fraud happens to all of us.  I know that My neighbors do not like me because my skin color is different from them.  This is a person who has been computer hacking me for only a short period of time.  I am asking all of you to please be careful when it comes to using any accounts.   God is with me right now.  Go...

EXPECTATIONS & HUMAN RELATIONSHIPS

Expectations & Human Relationships This is a report concerning the expectations when it pertains to human relationships. First, we must ask ourselves a question. What are expectations when it pertains to human relationships? Human Relationships consists of communication both direct and indirect. This means nonverbal and verbal communication as well as association. When we are in close contact with each other, we are learning what the other person is like. We are learning their habits, personality, as well as the way they conduct themselves around others. It does not matter whether these people are in our family or on the street. The best ways to communicate with anyone is by introducing yourself to another person and see what kind of response you will receive. Second, another way of communicating to others is by letter or online. Although this is classified as maintaining a false relationship or a pen-pal, but sometimes this leads into a relationship that is direct eventually, if t...

IS IT TRUE THAT GOD KNOWS EXACTLY HOW LONG WE ARE GOING TO LIVE?

Is it true that God knows exactly where we are at all times?  By Anthony Joseph Hopkins 11/19/2021        I have a very important question to ask everyone.  Is it true that God knows exactly where we are at all times?  The answer to this question is yes.  God knows exactly where we are at all times.  Where exactly shall I go from His Spirit?  The answer is no where because He is inside of us.  His Spirit bears with our spirit.  Where shall I go from His presence?  The answer is nowhere.  He is with us at all times.  If I ascend into heaven He is there.  If I make my bed into hell, He is there with us.        If you want me to be perfectly honest with all of you, we cannot hide from God.  He is watching all of us.  I want to inform all of you that I am asking this question because I would like for anyone to answer this question.  I know that everything th...
