Then the twelve called the multitude of the disciples unto them, and said, It is not reason that we should leave the word of God, and serve tables.

As most of you know, Judas is no longer, and so the guys thought it made sense to replace him. It sounds like they flipped coins until it got narrowed down to Barnabas.

The phrase Hate the sin not the sinner I think should be updated to Love the sinner and not the sin. There is too much emphasis on hate. Recently an issue in my family has caused me to think about this. Cannot go into great detail but a family member has opted to put aside the christian values the they were taught to choose a life of sin. Some people are saying this is a phase they are going through but the way one family member is handling this may cause it to be permanent. The family member is spewing hatred at the member who is in this sin but other who do not agree with the spewing. They are spewing nothing but hatred for the person who is choosing the sinful life and the person they are with right now. The person spewing the hatred is a christian and…

The old testaments quote over and over again in several books that tithing was instituted as wages for the priests. The priests were ordained only from the tribe of Levites and were not allowed to work with their hands to earn money, so their job was to look after the rituals and practices of the temple. The tithe meaning one tenth, was later added to the law and Jewish ordinances , in another word a must for the people of the land of Israel. The book of 1kings 12v16 talks about money as sin and trespass offering which the priests took to offer as animal sacrifice on behalf of the people. Jesus was that ultimate sacrifice and thus fulfilled the old testament laws including the law of tithing. Hebrews 7 talks clearly about levites who receive the priesthood have a commandment to receive tithes from the people under the law….
