X As The House of YHWH (The Lord).

     a) A House of Prayer, Praise and Worship.

           Congregational Prayer: Is.56:7; Ps.84:11; Matt.7:11; 18:19,20; Jhn.14:13,14; Jhn.15:7-9,16,17; 16:23,24;
                 Rom.8:32; Jms.1:5,6; not forgetting we are to be ìeffectual and ferventî (Jms.5:16) in our prayer life
                 (Jms.4:1-3), not to the Exclusion of our ìPrayer Closetî (Matt.6:6-8), in matters of Wisdom,
          Understanding, and of The Heart, which others canít necessarily Help (1Tim.5:13), and of the
                 cleansing thereof, which Only The Lord can Do (1Jhn.1:9; Jhn.1:29). One little known Fact is that the Old
                Testament, Prayer is alway Sung. "And he went into the temple, and began to Cast Out them that sold
                 therein, and them that bought; Saying unto them, It is written, My house is the House of Prayer: but
                ye have made it a den of thieves" (Luke 19:45,46).

            Congregational Praise:(1Chr.16:25; Ps.22:22-26; 29:1-5; 40:9-11; 66:2-4; 99:8,9; Ps.107:32; 145:7-12;
                  Ps.148:1-14; 1Cor.14:26; Eph.5:18-21; Col.3:16,17). ì For Thou art Holy, O Thou that Inhabitest the
           Praises of Yisrael.î (Ps.22:3); we are The House of Adonay to Live in the Presence of
                 YHWH (Heb.4:16; 10:19-23), to Be a Praise and Worship to His Name: ìMy son, Forget not My
             Law; and  let thine Heart KEEP My Commandments: For length of days, and long life, and Peace,
                 shall they add to thee. Let not Mercyand Truthforsake thee: Bind them about thy Neck; write them
                 upon the "Tablets" of thine Heart: So shalt thou find Favour and good Understanding in the
                sight  of Adonay and man. Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto your own
            understanding (donít waste time thinking: Matt.6:27). In all thy ways ìBe ye an acknowledgmentî
                 (personal translation) to Him, and He shall Direct your paths. Be not Wise in your own eyes: Fear the
                 LORD, and Depart From Evilî (Prov.3:1-7; Job 28:28). By Mercy and Truth Iniquity is Purged:
                and by the Fear of The LORD men Depart from Evil (Prov. 16:6).

          Congregational Reading of The Law: Ex.24:3; Deut.31:11; Josh. ch.8,9; 2Kng.22:8; 23:2;
                2Chr.17:9,10; Ezra 8:22,23; Neh.8:8,9; Acts 13:14,15; 15:21; Rom.3:31; Gal.5:18; Col.4:16,17; 1Thes.5:27;
                ìUntil I arrive, give attention to the Public Reading of Scriptures, to exhorting, to Doctrineî
                (1Tim.4:13). ì Ye hypocrites, well did Isaiah prophesy of you, saying, This people Draweth nigh unto
                Me with their mouth, and honor Me with their lips; but their heart is far from Me. But in Vain they
                do Worship Me, Teaching for Doctrines the commandments of menî (Matt.15:7-9). ì Therefore
                whosoever heareth these Sayings (WORDS) of Mine, and Doeth them, I will liken him unto a Wise man,
                who built his house upon a Rock: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat
                upon that house; and it Fell Not: for it was founded upon a Rock. And every one that heareth these Sayings
                of Mine, and Doeth them Not, shall be likened unto a Foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:
                And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it Fell: and
              Great was the fall of itî  (Matt.7:24-27).

                       The House of the Lord is intended to be a School of Higher Learning: ìFor My Thoughts are
                not your thoughts, neither are your ways My Ways, saith the LORD. For as the heavens are Higher
               than the earth, so are My Ways Higher than your ways, and My Thoughts than your thoughtsî
               (Is.55:8,9). ìFor who hath known the mind of YHWH, that he may Instruct Him? But we have (ìto Learn:î
               2Tim.2:15) the Mind of Christî (1Cor.2:16). We Canít Walk the ìStraight and Narrowî
               (Matt.7:13,14) if we are not Taught (Rom.10:14).

                        I beseech you therefore, Brethren, by the Mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a Living
        Sacrifice, Holy, acceptable unto God, which is your Reasonable Service (2Cor.5:12,13). And be
        NOT CONFORMED to this world: but be ye Transformed by the Renewing of your Mind,
              that ye may Demonstrate (prove #1381)what is the Good, and Acceptable, and Perfect, Will of God
             (Rom. 12:1,2). That ye Put Off concerning the former Life-style (conversation #391) the Old Man,
             which is Corrupt according to the Deceitful Lusts (all fleshly desires #1939); And be Renewed in
             the Spirit of your Mind; And that ye Put On the New Man, which after (In The Image of)  God
             is Created in Righteousness and True Holiness (Eph. 4:22-24). Seeing ye have Purified your
           Souls in Obeying The Truth (2Thes.1:7,8) through The Spirit unto Unfeigned Love of the
           Brethren, see that ye Love one another with a Pure Heart Fervently: Being Born"Anew" (Not
            to "do it again Sam"), Not of Corruptible seed, but of Incorruptible, by THE WORD of God,
            Who Liveth and Abideth for ever (1Pet. 1:22-23 ). Study to show thyself Approved unto God (both to
          Gain HIS Apporval (Jhn.14:23), and to Confirm our Adoption; 2Pet.1:10), a workman that
           needeth Not to be Ashamed, Rightly Dividing (correctly Expounding, Understanding, #3718)
          THE WORDof Truth. But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will Increase unto
            more Ungodliness (2Tim.2:15,16)

          Congregational Defenders of the Faith: The House of The Lord is under Attack, and as with all
         Subterfuges of warfare, the congregation is the first target for their not knowing how to Defend
               themselves, yet we were Not given Instruction under Eph.6:10-18 to pretend The Faith is a weekend at
           Disneyland Re.: Ps.81:13,14; Rom.2:19,20; 2Cor.2:14; 3:5; 9:13; 1Tim.1:18,19; 6:11-14; 2Tim.2:2; 4:5;
              Tit.1:9. Thus we are to Strengthen one another in the Faith, for the times are getting Harder.

 b) A House of Healing and Deliverance.

         The Ministry of Peace and Reconciliation: ìFor HE hath made Him to be Sin for us (made flesh, the
                seating place of sin), Who knew No sin; that we might (to be of Power #1410) be made the Righteousness
                of El Shaddai in Himî (2Cor.5:21); Thus we have Peace with our Father. ìAnd all things are of Adonay, who
                hath Reconciled us to HIMSELF by Yeshua the Christ, and hath given to us the Ministry of
         Reconciliation; To wit, that El Shaddai was in Christ, Reconciling the world unto HIMSELF, not
         Imputing their Trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the Word of
         Reconciliation. Now then we are Ambassadors for Christ, as though Adonay did Beseech you
                by us: we Admonish you in Christís stead, be ye Reconciled to El Shaddaiî (2Cor.5:18-20).

                     ìThere is therefore now No Condemnation to them who are IN Christ Yeshua (The Word Made Flesh:
                Jhn.1:14), who walk Not after the flesh, but after The Spirit. For The Law (Not an Option) of the
         Spirit of Life  in Christ Yeshua hath made us Free from the law of sin and deathî (Rom.8:1,2).
                Note does have to be made that this is Not a rationalization for sin, we are called to Be Perfect (Matt.5:48),
                and we have been Reconciled to Him, Not Him to us (Rom.1:18-32).

      Stewards of Grace: ìThe end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore Sober (level headed #4993), and Watch
                unto Prayer. And above all things have Fervent Charity among yourselves: for Love shall Cover the
             Multitude of Sins. Use hospitality one to another without grudging. As every man hath received the gift
                (Rom.12:3), even so Minister the same one to another, as Good Stewards of the Manifold Graces
                of Adonayî (1Pet.4:7-10).

                       Let us not Forget the word Minister means to be a Servant, and regardless of the New Age
             Worship of Self (and other Vanities) the word Serve means to Do For Others, Not to Please
             Oneself. ìBlessed be El Shaddai, even the Father of our Lord Yeshua The Christ, the Father of Mercies,
                and the God of all Comfort (not of the creature variety); Who Comforteth us in all our Tribulation, that
                we may (to be of Power #1410) be able to Comfort them which are in any Distress, by the Comfort
                wherewith we ourselves are Comforted of El Shaddai. For as the Sufferings of Christ abound IN us,
                so our Consolation also abounds by Christî (2Cor.1:3-5; Re.: Is.51:12; 66:13; 1Cor.4:1; 2Cor.4:9,10;
                2Cor.7:6,13).

      Ministry of Healing: while most neighboring cultures during the history of Yisrael all had relatively extensive
                medical knowledge (relative to the times) and made use of ìPharmakeia,î we never made an extensive
            Study of medicine because even in the old days, most Healing was done by Faith, and still done in The
         Church today (James 5:13-18; Mrk.6:12,13; 16:18; Luke 9:6).

      Ministry of Deliverance: The devil is giving everyone a hard time, and is getting more relentless as The
            Times get nearer (Rev.12:10-12), and Deliverance is available through Faith (Acts 10:38; Matt.16:19)
                noting to be careful not to get so caught up in the gifts, as to forget the Author (Matt.7:21-27).

      Ministry of Needs: The Fellowship of the Brethren is supposed to be a very Empathic Relationship
                wherein we are to be Attentive to each otherís Needs (Acts 2:4-17; 4:31-37; Gal.6:10;1Cor.9:3-15;
                1Cor.16:1-3; 2Cor.8:10-16; 2Cor.9:1-15; Phil.4:15-19; Jms.2:14-17).

c) A House of Holiness.

                  ìThe Fear (Reverence) of THE LORD is the Beginning of Wisdom: a good Understanding have
            all they that Do His Commandments: His Praise endureth for ever. Praise ye YHWH. Blessed is the
            man that  Feareth the LORD, who Delights Greatly in His Commandments. His seed shall be mighty
            upon earth: the generation of the Upright shall be blessed î (Ps.111:10; 112:1,2; Prov.21:30). Unfortunately we
            live  in a generation wherein: ì As it is written, There is noneRighteous, no, not one: There is none that
           Understandeth, there is none that Seeketh Adonay (Rom.3:10,11).

                 They are all gone Out of ìThe Wayî (Jhn.14:6) they are together become Unprofitable; there is None
            that doeth good, no, Not One. Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used
         Deceit;  the poison of asps is under their lips: Whose mouth is full of Cursing and Bitterness: Their feet
            are  swift to shed blood: Destruction and misery are in their ways: And ìThe Wayî of Peace have
            they Not  Known: There is No Fear of YHWH before their Eyesî (Rom.3:10-18). However we have been
           Instructed:  1Pet.1:15,16; Lev.11:44; Lev.19:2; 2Cor.7:1; 1Jhn.3:3; 1Thes.4:7; Tit:.2:12; 1Tim.2:2; 4:7,8;
            1Tim.6:11;  2Pet.3:11; Knowing: Matt.7:24-27; Rom.1:18; 2:8,9; Eph.1:4; 5:6; Col.3:6; 2Thes.1:7-9.

 d) A House of Righteousness.

                 The Lord Yeshua Warned us in Matt.5:20: ì For I say unto you, That except   your  Righteousness shall
            exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees (self: Is.64:6), ye shall in No Case Enter into
            the Kingdom of heaven.î

                  We are ìLed By The Spirit (The Word: Jhn.6:63; Eph.6:17), we are Not under The Lawî
            (Gal.5:16, 22-26); ìChrist is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are (seeking to be) Justified
            by the law; ye are fallen from Grace. For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of Righteousness
           By  Faithî (Gal.5:4,5). ìFor we are the circumcision, who Worship El Shaddai in the Spirit (Jhn.4:20-24),
            and Rejoice in Christ Yeshua, and have No Confidence in the fleshî (Phil.3:3); and we: ìGrow in the
           Grace, and in the Knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Yehsua the Christ. To Him be Glory both now  and for
            ever. Amenî (2Pet.3:18); towards the Promise (Rev.19:10).

                  For I through the law am dead to the law, that I might Live unto Adonay. I am Crucified with  Christ:
            nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I  live by
        theFaith of the Son of El Shaddai, Who Loved me, and gave Himself for me. I do not Frustrate the Grace of
            Adonay: for if Righteousness come by The  Law, then Christ is Dead in Vainî (Gal.2:19-21).  ìFor what
            the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, Adonay sending His own Son in  the likeness of
            sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh: That the Righteousness of the law  might (to be of Power
            #1410) be made Manifest (fulfilled #4137) in us, who Walk Not after the flesh,  but after The Spirit
            (Rom.8:3,4); whereby we are able to Walk the Talk: ìDo we then make Void the  Law through Faith?
            Adonay forbid: yea, we Establish The Lawî (Rom.3:31; Re.: Jhn.14:15; Jhn.15:10-14; Jms.1:22; 1Jhn.5:1-5).

 e) A House of Love.

                  ìBeloved, let us Love one another: for Love is Of Adonay; and every one who Loveth is Born  of
            Adonay, and knoweth El Shaddai. He that Loveth Not Knoweth Not Adonay (Tit.1:16); For God
         Is Love. In this was manifested the Love of Adonay toward us, because that El Shaddai sent His only
            begotten Son into the world, that we might Live through Him. Herein is Love, not that we loved
            Adonay, but that He Loved Us, and sent His Son to be the Propitiation for our sins. Beloved, if   YHWH
            so Loved us, we Ought also to Love one another. No man hath seen El Shaddai at any time. If  we
           Love one another, Adonay dwelleth in us, and His Love is Perfected in usî (1Jhn.4:7-12).

                 However, contrary to popular belief, Love is Not emotionalism (lust): ì The commandments, ìYou shall
           not commit adultery; You shall not murder; You shall not steal; You shall not covetî; and any
           other Commandment, are summed up in this word,ìLove your neighbor as yourself.îLove
           does No Wrong  to a neighbor (does not violate the Principles of Love); therefore, Love is the
         Manifestation (fulfilling  #4137) of the lawî (Rom.13:9,10).

               Whosoever believeth that Yeshua is the Christ is Born of El Shaddai: and every one that Loveth
         Him that begat (The Father) Loveth Him also that is begotten of Him. By this we know that we Love the children
         of El Shaddai, when we Love Adonay, and Keep His Commandments. For this is the Love of
        Adonay, that we keep His Commandments: and His Commandments are Not Grievous (Ps.19:7-11).
        For whosoever is born of Adonay Overcometh (rises above #3528) the world: and this is the  Victory that
        Overcometh the world, Even Our Faith. Who is he that Overcometh the world, but he that  believeth that
        Yeshua is the Son of Adonay? This is he that came by water and blood, even Yeshua the  Christ; not by water
        only, but by water and blood. And this is The Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit Is Truth.
        For there are Three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word (The Son: Jhn.1:14), and the Holy Spirit:
        and these Three are United (one: KJV). And there are three that bear witness in earth, The Spirit, and the
        water, and the blood: and these three agree in one. If we receive the  witness of men, the Witness of El
        Shaddai is Greater: for this is the Witness of El Shaddai which He  hath Testified of His Sonî (1Jhn.5:1-9).

 f) A House of Marriage.

              ìMarriage is Honorable in all, and the bed undefiled: but Whoremongers (and other Slanderers of
        Women) and adulterers El  Shaddai will Judgeî (Heb.13:4); and we are warned: ì Now the Spirit speaketh
        expressly, that in the Latter Tmes some shall Depart from the Faith, giving heed to Seducing
        Spirits, and Doctrines of devils;  Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscienceseared with
        a hot iron; Forbidding to marry (theoretical law of Fornication: the boyfriend), and commanding to abstain
        from meats which Adonay hath created to be Received with Thanksgiving of them which believe and Know
       The Truth(1Tim.4:1-3). The Christ is Coming to a Church ìwithout spot and without blemishî(Eph.5:26,27),
        Not to a brothel of ìAnything Goesî (Jms.4:4). Therefore in Preparation for the ìMarriage  of the
        Lambî (Rev.19:7,8), the ìDiscipleship of Marriageî (study by this author) will be taught both from the
        standpoint   Rev.3:8_10). No matter how well accepted the boyfriend immaturity has managed to become
        (and no  matter how ìplay seriousî they are about it), Rationalized Fornication is Not Acceptable in
        The   House of The Lord (Rom.1:27, 1Cor.7:1-4; 1Thes.4:3-5); and Divorce is not encouraged
        (Matt.5:28-32;  Matt.19:1-9; Mrk.10:11,12; Luke 16:17,18; 1Cor.7:10-17); It is a Lonely world out there.

XI As The Storehouse Of El Shaddai.

        First of all it is Doubtful that the issue of Tithes (properly speaking), which is only referred to ìUnder The Law,î is even Doctrinally Sound to be Discussed in New Covenant Times (thank you Brother Gilbert) in that the word Tithes is Not Used as a matter of Doctrine in the N.T.(Acts 4:32 -> 5:5) though Offerings are alluded to in several places. However, it would seem that the ch-rch world is Lacking in Understanding in what the Intent of Tithes is.

         While we are familiar with: ìBring ye all the Tithes into the Storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and Prove Me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a Blessing, that there shall not be room enough to Receive it. And I will Rebuke the Devourer for your sakes, and he shall Not Destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, saith the LORD of hostsî (Mal.3:10,11; Re.: Ps.82:3,4; Is.1:16,17; 58:6-12; Jer.22:3; Hag.1:1-9; Zeph.2:3); there are several point which are unfortunately overlooked.

        Despite our overly materialistic programing, ìTithingî is Not a ìSlot Machine in the Sky;î and the ensuing misinterpretation of the word ìBírakahî (blessing #1293) is not a monetary (1Tim.6:5-11), but a SpiritualIssue, as further explained by: ìBlessed be the Adown and Father of our Lord Yeshua The Christ, Who hath Blessed us with all Spiritual Blessings in heavenly places in Christ î(Eph.1:3; Re.: Gen.12:2; Deut.11:13-15; Is.44:3; Ezk.34:25,26).This is not to imply that our Father in Heaven doesnít: ìSupply all our Needs according to His Riches in Glory by Christ Yeshuaî (Phil.4:19), without confusing (1Cor.14:33) want (Bubble Gum; covetousness) with NEED (the air that we breath). Illiteracy (ìnew-speak,î non-verbality, reading between the lines, etc.) Not being a science, much less a Theology. The following passage written before the afformentionned Revelation was Given, and somarily discuss' the Issue which is elabrated on in  "The Ministry of Tithes." It can nevertheless serve to understand to Proper Uses of the Resoures of The Church.

         One could however wonder why our Father in Heaven should want an earthly Storehouse, when He dwells ìon Highî (Ps.113:4,5; Is.33:5), and ìnot in temples made with handsî (Acts 7:48; 1Cor.3:16,17; 1Cor.6:18-20; 2Cor.6:16; Luke 17:21).
        The History of the Storehouse will make the issue clear. ìAnd the Levite (the priest and the minister) because he hath no part nor inheritance [private property] with thee, and the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, which are within thy gates, shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied; that YHWH Adonay may bless thee in all the work of thine hand which thou doestî (Deut.14:29; Re.: Nmb.18:20-24; Deut.10:9; 16:10-14; 18:1-3; 24:19-22; Ps.94:3-12; Ezk.44:28-30).  And now, behold, I have brought the Firstfruits of the land, which Thou, O LORD, hast given me. And thou shalt set it before YHWH Adonay, and worship before YHWH Adonay: And thou shalt rejoice in every good thing which the LORD thy Adonay hath given unto thee, and unto thine house, thou, and the Levite, and the stranger that is among you.
 When thou hast made an end of tithing all the tithes of thine increase the third year, which is the year of tithing, and hast given it unto the Levite, the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow, that they may eat within thy gates, and be Satisfied (filled); Then thou shalt say before YHWH Adonay, I have brought away the hallowed things out of mine house, and also have given them unto the Levite, and unto the stranger, to the fatherless, and to the widow, according to all thy commandments which Thou hast commanded me: I have not transgressed thy commandments, neither have I forgotten themî (Deut.26:10-13).
          ìHow long will ye judge unjustly, and accept the persons of the wicked? Selah. Defend the poor and fatherless: do Justice to the afflicted and needy. Deliver the poor and needy: rid them out of the hand of the wickedî (Ps.82:2-4). ì Is not this the fast that I have chosen? To loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go Free, and that ye break every yoke? Is it not to Give thy bread to the hungry, and that thou bring the poor that are cast out to thy house? When thou seest the naked, that thou cover him; and that thou hide not thyself from thine own flesh?  Then shall thy Light break forth as the morning, and thine Health shall spring forth speedily: and thy Righteousness shall go before thee; the Glory of the LORD shall be thy rearward. Then shalt thou call, and YHWH shall answer; thou shalt cry, and He shall say, Here I am. If thou remove the yoke from your midst, and the pointing of the finger, and speaking vanity; And if thou draw out thy soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul; then shall thy light rise in obscurity, and thy darkness be as the noonday: And the LORD shall guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought, and make fat thy bones: and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water (Jer.2:13; &:13; Jhn.7:38) whose waters fail notî (Is.58:6-11; Re.: Deut.24:17; Ps.10:18; Is.11:4; Jer.22:16; Jms.2:14-17).
           Listen, my beloved brothers and sisters. Has not Adonay chosen the Poor in the world to be Rich in Faith and to be Heirs of the Kingdom that He has promised to those who Love Him? But you have dishonored the poor. Is it not the rich who oppress you? Is it not they who drag you into court? Is it not they who blaspheme the excellent Name ìby Whom you are Calledî (KJV)? You do well if you really fulfill the Royal Law according to the Scripture, ìYou shall love your neighbor as yourself.î But if you show partiality, you commit sin and are convicted by the law as Transgressors. For whoever keeps the whole law but fails in one point has become accountable for all of it. For the one who said, ìYou shall not commit adultery,î also said, ìYou shall not murder.î Now if you do not commit adultery but if you murder, you have become a transgressor of the law. So speak and so Do as those who are to be Judged By The Law Of Liberty. For judgment will be without Mercy to anyone who has shown No Mercy; Mercy Triumphs over Judgment. What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if you say you have faith but do not have works? Can faith save you? If a brother or sister is naked and lacks daily food, and one of you says to them, ìGo in peace; keep warm and eat your fill,î and yet you do not supply their bodily needs, what is the Good of that? So faith by itself, if it has no works, is Dead (Jms.2:5-17; NRSV).
         This is clearly manifest by the Holy Spirit in THE CHURCH at Pentecost (Acts ch.1-4), wherein the needs of the entire Congregation are met by the ìCooperativeî of the Church (Rom.12:3-16;  Gal.6:10; Eph.2:20-22; 4:13-16; Col.2:19), not that any should be burdened that others be eased (2Cor.8:10-12). Therefore, for as long as is possible (Rev.18:4), and not to the preempting of the ìExodusî in the works; The Church should be more actively involved in the community as an employment service, there being a Ministry Of Works (2Cor.8:21; 1Pet.2:12), it not being sound doctrine that anyone (in particular the men) be on welfare (1Thes.4:11; 2Thes.3:11-14), even if The Church has to subsidize their income (Gal.6:10).
         ìAnd YHWH spake unto Aaron, Thou shalt have no inheritance in their land, neither shalt thou have any part (private Property: Vested Interest) among them: I AM thy Part and thine Inheritance among the children of Yisrael. And, behold, I have given the children of Levi all The Tenth in Israel for an inheritance, for their service which they serve, even the service of the Tabernacle of the congregationî (Nmb.18:20,21).
         This Ministry is also of the opinion that the ìMinistry of Tithesî is an invaluable service with which the congregation supports the Ministry work. However, since the ìTenthî Tithe Offering (Gen.28:22; Lev.27:32; Heb.7:5)  is supposed to be the Sacrifice of the Firstfruits of oneís Increase (Ex.22:29; 23:19; 34:26; Lev.2:14) back to YHWH, the idea of a Write Off of the Tithes as a ìCharitable Contributionî under section 501-c-3 of the internal revenue code, though socially legal, is Not Biblically sound doctrine.
         We are Instructed: ìTell us therefore, What thinkest thou? Is it lawful to give tribute unto Caesar, or not? But Yeshua perceived their wickedness, and said, Why tempt ye Me, ye hypocrites? Show Me the tribute money. And they brought unto Him a penny. And He saith unto them, Whose is this image and superscription? They say unto Him, Caesarís. Then saith He unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesarís; and unto El Shaddai the things that are Adonayís. When they had heard these words, they marvelled, and left Him, and went their wayî (Matt.22:17-22). The idea of the Write-Off, is however a rationalization of ìrobbingî uncle Sam, and giving it to the Lord (which is  not actually ìGivingî), not of making a Sacrifice of Thanks, to which we are Called.

      ìHe hath shown thee, O man, what is Good; and what doth YHWH require of thee, but to Do Justly, and to Love Mercy, and to Walk Humbly with thy Adonay? (Mic.6:8); And as many as Walk according to this Rule, Peace be on them, and Mercy, and upon theYisrael of ADONAYî (Gal.6:16).

        O my Threshing, and the corn of my floor: that which I have heard of the LORD of hosts, the Adown of Yisrael, have I Declared unto You (Is.21:8-10). I Charge you By the Lord "Yeshua" that this Epistle be Read unto ALL the HOLY BRETHREN. The GRACE of our Lord Yeshua The Christ be With you. Amen (1Ths.5:27,28).
