Please  know,  (As  One  Studies, You  will  find)  that  the  letter  "J"  did  not  enter  into  the  English  Alphabet  until  roughly  less than  ~ 500  years  ago,  around  the  ~   16th   Century.  It  was  the  Last  Letter  to  be  added  into  The  English  Language!    Also,  That   the   name   "Jesus" comes from the Greek name "IESOUS" - (which has a lot of controversy surrounding it!)

"IESOUS" is supposed to come from the Hebrew word/Name  - "YaHushua" / "YaHusha".

Therefore,  it  is  the  Authors  "wish"  that  you  recognize  -  "YaHushua" / "YaHusha".
(Correctly "translated" ----   [not transliterated] into English  = "Joshua") as the name intended throughout this outline, which (through research and Prayer) most accurately represents the closest name of our Messiah when He walked this earth.

The name "Jesus" comes up on some of the Modern Day Scripture links throughout this outline, and is kept do to the commonality of it's usage; but  it  is  really  considered  more of   a   mis- used   nick- name.   Each   time   you   see   that   name,   please   register
"YaHushua" / "Yahusha", (YHWH Saves / Saved) as the most appropriate name for Him.  For almost ~ 1600 years after He (The Messiah) walked the earth, he was not called "Jesus"
- (in Prayer, or anything else).

-     When  the  name  was  transliterated  from  the  Hebrew,  it  lost  it's  meaning!


Do The Research For Yourself!   (Don't Just take my word for it!)


Also, while we are speaking on the Names; it is the Authors wish that you recognize YHWH, as the name intended here (also one of the most accurate names) for Our Heavenly Father.

Shortened Version - YaH (As in Psalms 68:4),
Or in the Phrase "The  Highest  Praise Be To YaH!" - "HalleluYaH" / (Alleluia - Revelations 19)

For Outline Purposes, you might see the word "GOD", or the words  "The LORD" here; again because of the Commonality of  it's  usage!  I do Recognize HIM as The Supreme "Elohiym" (Or The Mighty "El"), and as The LORD of Lords! (Ruler/Master of Rulers/Masters).

Although no one can truly say/pronounce HIS name besides "I AM THAT I AM", or "Hayah Asher Hayah" [English-Hebrew] in (Exodus 3:14).  In (Exodus 6:3), most might actually see HIS name as JEHOVAH, or "The LORD" in most of  today's Bibles, but the word/Letters that were actually there, and Should be there now are "YHWH" called the TetragrammatonAnd Since the Letters "E", "O", "A" (vowels) were added, and the letters "J", and "V" Did Not Exist in The English Language At The Time!  I choose to use a closer name version here - "YaHuaH" or "YaHWeH" (from YHWH) - adding 0 to 2 letters (for pronunciation purposes), instead of Five!  You might see during this Outline that I chose to use either above or "YHWH" plainly many times instead of "The LORD", or "GOD" (which are plug-ins, in the Bibles that we read today).

Either way, Our Heavenly Father searches our Hearts to see what's in there.  Whether ignorant of certain things, or not, HE will search our Hearts!  The Scriptures do have a lot of emphasis on HIS Name; and The Holy Scriptures also tell us to Study to show ourselves approved...  Rightly Dividing the Word of Truth!   -------   I am striving to do that!   -------  Are you doing the same...?


For More / Deeper Understanding about HIS or His Name in Scripture:

In HIS Love,  Bro. Ron Quarterman
Biblical Scriptures Pertaining to
the Tithe(s) / Or to "Tithing"


Summation
______________________________________________


The  reason  that  you  don't  really  hear  about  Tithes  in  the  New  Testament,  is  that
we  are "no  longer  under"  -  that  Ordinance  of  the  Law.

There is a Different way of Giving Back to "The LORD" (YHWH) Now!
Our High Priest is NOW in Heaven!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yet,  Many Churches / Pastors  use  Malachi 3:8  to say that we are to still tithe, or we cheat GOD.
(Some,  because their eye's / hearts  have  not  been  opened  to  the  True  Meaning  of  "that  text"  in  scripture).
Sadly, You will find a lot of talk on Tithing,  around  Year  End  (when the books are due!)       It's  just  a  fact! 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

-------  But  you  just  took  a  look  at  the  Scriptures  -------
  (every one of them dealing with Tithes).

  Question:
          Are they (most  modern  day  preachers)  asking  for  Tithes  of  Man,  or  of  GOD? (Elohiym)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Here's  what  The  APOSTLE  PAUL  has/had  to  say...

2 Corinthians 2:17    (NIV - * The one time I will use the "NIV" because I like the way it is worded!)
- Unlike so many"we  do  not  peddle  the  word  of  GOD  for  profit."  <-- [Men Selected By GOD]
  On the contrary, in Christ we speak before GOD with sincerity,  like  men  sent  from  GOD.

** Also See  1 Peter 5:2       Hmmmmmm  -  That  Greed  of  Money...       Is  it  of  GOD?

He (The Apostle PAUL) Also writes with His own Hand:

1 Corinthians 9:18
- What is my reward then?  Verily that,  when I preach the Gospel,    I   may   make   the
Gospel  of  Christ     "without  Charge",    that  I  abuse  not  my  power  in  the  Gospel.

** No Price on that one!   (To Ministers that won't go somewhere, unless you get "X" amount of Dollars..)

Take heed!   

We should Spread The Gospel ...

   With the Love (and Example)  of  The Messiah,  And  His  Apostles / Disciples ...



~ Remember ~
Colossians 2:14   (Certain Ordinance(s) - Nailed to the Cross!)

Tithing:  Ordering   to  Take / give  "a  certain  Percentage"  (A  Tenth  ~  10%)   was  One  of  them!

THE  MESSIAH  TAUGHT  US  ABOUT  LOVE!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Galatians 2:21   (Christ  was  dead  in  vain,  if  righteousness  came  by  the  Law).
GRACE!  Faith / Hope  and Love!   If you look up the scriptures you will find that they are all directly related!

  Ephesians 2:8 (Grace through Faith),      Hebrews 11:1 (Faith is the Substance of things Hoped for),
  Romans 8:24  (We are Saved by Hope...) Galatians 5:6  (Faith  works  by  LOVE),

and...,  did  I  leave  out   1 JOHN 4:8   (GOD  is  LOVE).

Also See:  ROMANS 13:8
         - Owe  no  man  any thingbut  to  love  one  another;   for   he  that  loveth  another  hath  fulfilled  the  law!

Now that Tithing is gone,  and  Love/Charity  is better Revealed,  we  can  talk  about  another  grouped  item!
Offering  from  the  Heart!      -->     With Love,  and Joy...,  etc..

The  Way  it  was  supposed  to  be  done  in  the  First  place!

>>>>>>>        "Willingly!"       <<<<<<<

~~~~~~~   Get Your Thinking Caps On   ~~~~~~~

2 Corinthians 9:7  
         (GOD  loves  a  Cheerful  Giver  (offerings/Giving),
                                                        not  out  of  necessity,  (hmmmm, tithes...?)
                                                        but  rather  what  is  purposed  out  of  the  Heart!).  --   (No Percentage on that one!)

* Remember   (HEBREWS 10:8)    -   HE  didn't  like  the  old  stuff  offered  by  the  law!

        Hearts  were  not  right!!!     (HEBREWS 10:16)

HE  Wants  Our  Love,  And  for  us  to  Love  One  Another!
In  That;  Comes  Offerings  From  The  Heart!

***   We  Cheat  GOD  When  Our  Love  Is  Not  Right!   ***

MARK 12:29-31     --     1 JOHN 4:21

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1 JOHN 3:17
- But    whosoever  [which means we are included]  hath  this  world's  good, 
                 and   seeth  his  brother  have  need,
                                                 and  shutteth  up  his  |compassions|  [has no pity on]  from  him,
                                                                          how  dwelleth  the  love  of  God  in  him?

And  YES!!!  Some  Of  Our  Churches  Have  Needs  Also!
Missions,  Out-Reach,  Christian  Educational  Materials,
Pastor's/other's  income  (they  do  a  lot  more..,  Preaching  the  Gospel  is  just  one  of  the  many  responsibilitiies  in  Ministry!)
Church  Utilities / Bills,  etc.! 

What  Does  It  Take  [with  a  loving  heart]  To  Edify  The  Body  Of  Christ/Messiah.
From  us...
To  Keep  It  Strong?  -   [Most of]  Our  Churches  Have  a  lot  to  do  with  that!
But  know  that  it  shouldn't  stop  there;  the  Four  Walls  of  the  Building should not be a limitation!


Paul wrote in  1 Corinthians 13:3

- And  though  I  bestow  all  my  goods  to  feed  the  poor,  and  though  I  give  my  body  to  be  burned,
  [That  sounds  a  lot  like  the  old  tithes,  for  the  fatherless,  widow,  Levite,  and  stranger,
                                                                 as  well  as  burnt  offerings  that  was  also  done  away  with]
  and  have  not  Charity {have not Agape - Love},   it   profiteth   me   nothing.

Offering  from the Heart!

LOVE  is  the  fulfilling  of  the  Law!

The Holy Spirit will lead/guide!
   ***                                                                                                                                       ***


                  Where  there  is  a  Genuine  Need  for  the  Body  of  Christ,  to  edify  it  (if  your  Heart  is  right,
                   support  it  in  the  way  you  are  able  to  support  it).

                                     (Time,  Finances,  Goods,  Wisdom / Knowledge,  Talent,  etc.)

WWJD   -   (What Would JESUS Do?)   Or Have Us to do?

   Do  we  Really  Ask  Ourselves  That?

We Should!!!

* We See and Know that He offered Himself up unto Death, in Obedience to His Father & GOD!
   He  Submitted  His  will!!!    And  His  Father's  Will,  became  His  Will!

  (Not  My  Will,  But  Thy  Will  Be  Done!)

* We see that He gave and  Offered  "what  He  could"  to  those  in  need!  (Out  of  His  Love  for  them).

Leaving  us  an  example!

* We see that He was fine with David taking bread of the tabernacle   (so  He  wasn't  Legalistic).
  
(Matthew 12:3-7)  -  Mercy!!!

* We see that He says  "freely  we  have  received,  freely  give".                          Preaching?   Hmmmmm?
 
(Matt. 10:5-10 / 11:5,  2 Cor. 11:7)

ROMANS 12:1  (Offering  ourselves  as  a  living  Sacrifice!)
  It  is  a  Daily  Job,  not  just  on  Sunday,  or  Saturday (Sabbath),  etc..    Lifestyle!

Try  Reading  Your  Bible  More  (Asking  The  Holy  Spirit  For  Truth  &  Understanding).

  Make  that  Commitment!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

LUKE 10:27   (Read it!)  -   It   Deals   with   Loving   GOD,   And   Loving  Others...

    What  Are  "YOU"  Really  Doing  For  The  LORD? (YHWH)
  Can  YOU,   ------------>   Be  Doing  More ... ?

*  The LORD (YaHWeH) recognizes  our  actions  more  than  our  titles,  or  words,
  HE  looks  at  our  works  of  Righteousness! James 2:14-20

      -->  Look  at  the  Parable  of  the  Good  Samaritan  (LUKE 10:30-37)
  -  The  Messiah  Used  This  For  An  Example  For  us  to  learn  from!

      -->  Notice  that  the  Priest / the Levite  walked  on  the  other  side Not  Helping!),

  Love - WWJD,   or   Have   us   to   do!?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Messiah,  said/say's  that  what we do unto the least of His brethren,   we do unto Him!
                 (Matthew 25:40)         ---->       We need to start treating people better...
                                   FROM THE HEART!!!

Colossians 3:23"And  whatever  ye  do,   do  it  heartily,  as  to  the  Lord,   and not unto men,"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It  is  not  a  10%  Thing!       It  is  a   "WHO YOU ARE"   Thing!       (Regarding Your Personal Walk).
What  is  in  YOUR  Heart  "To  Do",  When  You  See  A  (edifying) Need,  and  You  are  Able...
That  WILL  Be  Of  Great  Importance,  When  You  Meet  The  Lord  Face  To  Face!
Reflect  back  on  the  earlier  Two  Verses!     (Just  Above)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

MICAH 6:8 -  "He  hath  shown  thee,  O  man,  what  is  good:  and   what  doth  the  LORD  require  of  thee,
                           but  to do justly,   and  to   love  mercy,   and  to  walk  humbly  with  thy   [your]   GOD?"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

*    If  you  are  still  Fully  persuaded  that  you  must  Tithe?
That  is  between  You  and  GOD (and sometimes Man).   The  Above  verses  should  have  a  lot  of  significance  to  you,  and  what you  do!   Even  though  Tithing  was  done  away  with  (according  to  what's been revealed to me  in  GOD's Inspired Written Word/Scriptures), and  offering  with  your  Heart  (with Loveof  whatever  you  can, to  edify  another/other's  -  The  Body  Of  Christ/Messiah!   has  taken  the  forefront  in  The  LORD's  Will,  And  Pleasure!

If   your  eye's / Heart  have  not  been  opened   to  that  fact  by  now,  and   you  still  feel  bound  by  the  act  of  Tithing... (bound by 10%)   Your   Heart   should   be  right  in  your  giving.

   Otherwise   it   profit's   you   nothing!

______________________________________________________________________________________

All  This  To  Say:

Don't  Give  Because  Someone  Said  that  you  have  to  give  a  Tenth ~ 10%,

but   Give   rather   what's   Purposed   in  Your  Heart!

Give  ~ 10% ~  Or  More,  Or  Less ?    -----    It's  What's  Purposed  in  YOUR  Heart!

That  Is  What's  Seen  By  GOD!

______________________________________________________________________________________

I will leave you with the words of Paul, and then JESUS (Yahushua) Himself:

1 Corinthians 3:6-8
6 -  I (Paul)  have  planted,  Apollos  watered,  but  GOD  gave  the  increase.
7 -  So,  then,  neither is he that planteth anything, neither he that watereth, but GOD that giveth the increase.
8 -  Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one;
      and  every  man  shall  receive  his  own  reward  according  to  his  own  labor.

*************************************************************************

The  Word,    has  been  Planted!              You  can  water  it  yourselves!            GOD  will  bring  the  Increase!

Truth or Tradition...?                 Search for Yourselves!              (With a Sincere/earnest Heart).

***  Rely  on  the  Holy  Spirit (Ruach ha Qodesh) for  Truth  and  Understanding!   (JOHN 14:17,  16:13-14)

JOHN 8:31 ... continuing in  His  Word, and becoming  Disciples [of  JESUS - Christ]. Yahushua ha Mashiyach
JOHN 8:32  "And ye shall  know  the  truth,  and  the  truth  shall  make  you  free."

The Inspired Written Scriptures Of GOD,  (and I)  NEVER  SAID TO STOP SUPPORTING YOUR LOCAL CHURCH/OTHER (when  they  are  doing  The  LORD's  Work / Will),   JUST   THAT    THE "TITHE"  ACCORDING TO THE OLD  LAW/Covenant,   IS  NO  LONGER  IN  AFFECT!!!
