  • Tithing

    Tithing is an essential part of the church. The Bible says to give 10% of everything you earn. I try my hardest. What about all of you guys?
    But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
    ~ Revelation 21:8 (KJV)

    Are you kidding me? They take it out of my paycheck on the gross. I don't even get to tithe net.
    Christians are superior because we possess an understanding that unbelievers lack. It is through the Power of Jesus only the converted mind is able to understand what is going on in the world; what the Communists are really up to; what Satan's intentions are. Most unbelievers do not even believe in Satan and cannot understand his tactics.

      By putting money into A real church does not count as tithing as the money is not going towards God's work.
      Therefore if you do not actually put money into a real life organization that is dedicated to helping change the people of the world into passionate followers of christ then you don't really tithe at all.

        I'm a bit confused by that Jacob. I am sure that (insomuch as anyone knows The Mind of God) that God approves of Landover's Mission to bring His Word to the deluded and misguided masses who otherwise would never experience the Joy of Heaven.

        Yes, it is sad that in this day and age, money is required, yet we live in a World of Sin and we must do all we can with the tools we have to hand.

          If according to you Churches are not doing God's work, I wonder what you think it is that Churches do?

          To most "Christians" The Bible is like a license agreement. They just scroll to the bottom and click "I agree". All those "Christians" will burn in Hell!

              Re: Tithing

              I have been informed that the State of South Dakota will be publishing a new publicity photo today so I need some information from my Brothers in Christ. As you can see the Lord has seen fit to reward me with a windfall, my question is that since this is a cash payout I was planning on reinvesting and collecting the interest. I have been offered a straight 5% guaranteed yearly return for the 5 years of a contract. That will be about $10 mil yearly. My question is should I tithe a one time payment to the Lord or increase his percentage on the investment plan with me? I was considering 50% tithe with the investment plan, my joo accountant says that would keep me at a negative status with the IRS and I would receive tax credits to be used at a later date.
              I need to make a decision soon as I would like to get upgraded seating at the Stonefest 2010 church services.

                Mr Davis,

                I am more than happy to aid you in finding appropriate stocks, properties and off shore havens high yield US Bank accounts to invest your newly found wealth.

                I also think that as a man's home is his castle, you perhaps should consider buying a nice new house, or perhaps even building one and also upgrading your Winnebago. You can pick up a nice, fully decked out used one for a mere 550K (including tax)

                Here is a page for you to peruse...friend.

                Down here my sins forgiven,
                Up there a home in heaven
                Praise God, That's the way for me!!

                  Nice chunk of cash. Best bet, tithe 50% to the church. Its a charitable contribution and it will lower your net income. I haven't paid income tax in years, thanks to Mr Bush. You might want to consider moving the bulk out of the US, when Osamba Obamama get his way your tax liability will change, unless it is offshore. I personally do not keep more than 25 million in US banks.
                  The Cayman's are a great place as well as Switzerland.

                    Thanks for the advice, I am leaning that way, I wii be flying to Gurnsey right after Stonefest 2010. That is where I made the Guaranteed income investment. I wouldn't trust the swiss chocolates, they are nothing but mountain frogs and will roll over on you in a heartbeat. Mr. Cheney told me that himself years ago. Thanks for the advice.

                      Mrs P I passed this dealership on the road this morning and I had never seen a 2 story RV before but this had 2 living rooms one is ''the solarium'' upstairs. Also it has a small built in garage for a small car or several motorcycles and assorted toys. What is your opinion on this. I will be honest I am having a hard time deciding and your opinion is greatly appreciated.
                      I am collecting brochures and we can go through them at the festival, I hope.

                          I tithe more than 60% of my before tax reported income. And I think I should give more but with fuel costs today, I really cannot afford to increase the donation. I think $858 (last years amount) certainly is going to butter the way for me to slip into Heaven and get a good place there. Thanks goodness I can write off my gifts to Landover. Last year, I paid zero taxes and got a $57M refund. America the Beautiful.

                            Brother Benedict,

                            Even though it seems quite nice, and you would be able to stow a small car and moped in the under-hold, appearances can be deceiving.

                            I am wondering if the prior owner is a cathlick as the interior seems ..well.. to have quite a spic "flavor" to it.

                            I am surprised that there are not concrete lions or gargoyles as hood ornaments, actually. Perhaps they removed that prior to putting it up for sale.

                            Is there anything else in the dealership that draws your eye?

                            You of course do need some "home-comforts" whilst on the road defending God's Word, but something less garrish would be better suited to a fine, upstanding gent such as yourself.

                            Please keep me updated.

                              In Canada I tithed 18% because that is the limit on tithing that the CRA puts on your income taxes (stupid liebrals). I have no idea with Seth, and we'll have to sit down with an accountant in Freehold to figure out what the best level is.
