    What are you saying here? They did not have currency, as in government minted coins. They had precious metals of value to use. They had weighted pieces of silver! Abraham listened to Ephron, and Abraham weighed out for Ephron the silver that he had named in the hearing of the Hittites...

    It's like saying "colonial America" in contrast to the current United States of America. One knowing history should know the differences. Ancient Israel is a phase that Israel manifested during the days from Moses to John the Baptist.

    Funny… Ironically, I perfectly understood what he meant, but not yours. Most of the most commonly confused words in English are old pairs: affect and effect, or discrete and discreet. But a new pair has developed in the last dozen or so years: segway and segue. You see it in informal writing...

    Let's try Deuteronomy 14 again.... 22 Be sure to set aside a tenth of all that your fields produce each year. 23 Eat the tithe of your grain, new wine and olive oil, and the firstborn of your herds and flocks in the presence of the Lord your God at the place he will choose as a dwelling for...

    That, too! Yes, tongues were given as a sign. For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom: 1 Corinthians 1:22 Jews required a sign. That sign was given as an indicator that the Holy Spirit was being given to the Church.

    It is beyond Jesus simply rose from the dead. That aspect after his burial verified the Resurrection from the dead. But, he had to ascend back to heaven first to become glorified by the Father in order to be made experientially manifesting all power and authority as God. He would no longer...

    Just to clarify for those who really do not know. What you said was not the case for when tithing was instituted. For, Israel was a theocracy. Now, corrupted clergy use it the way as you stated, in distortion and abuse.
