Scriptural TithingApologia The following paper is based upon the Scriptures with some minimal opinion mixed in. Thanks goes to Erik Weems. Much credit is given to the wrong Right Reverend Robert Johnston THE fifth for most excellent work editing work editing work editing work, and friends in Ohio. BB did some too.
The TextDeuteronomy 14:22 Thou shalt truly tithe all the increase of thy seed, the produce of the field, year by year. 23And thou shalt eat before Yehovah thy God, in the place that He will choose to place His Name there, the tithe of thy grain, of thy wine and of thine oil, and the firstlings of thy herds and of thy flocks, that thou mayest learn to fear Yehovah thy God continually. 24And if the way be too long for thee so that thou art not able to carry it because the place is too far from thee, where Jehovah thy God will choose to set His Name, when Yehovah thy God blesseth thee, |

Is there a second chance for those who have died? I have formerly written about a thousand generations in reference to the time Yehovah’s Covenant with Avraham will last according to three texts: Deuteronomy 7:9 Know therefore that Yehovah thy God -- He is God, the faithful God Who keeps covenant and Grace with them that love Him and keep His commandments to a thousand generations... 1 Chronicles 16:15 Be ye mindful always of His covenant -- the word He commanded to a thousand generations.... Psalm 105:8 He has remembered His covenant to Hider, the word He commanded to a thousand generations... The question, “Is there a second chance for those who have died?” needs a fuller answer than merely “No.” I will start with that, but I must explain another event. ‘Second chance’ concepts are wrong.

Uncopyrighted August 25, 2008 Saar Shalom Center The following paper was presented to a nurse of the ‘Jehovah’s Witnesses’ persuasion who had loaned me a ‘Jehovah’s Witnesses’ doctrinal book. This is my response. I have tried to make the answers complete enough that the reader will more or less know what the doctrinal book states without mentioning the specific book. (They occasionally change their titles.) This response is intended for the members of the ‘Jehovah’s Witnesses,’ which is why I have not gone further in explaining their beliefs, but it is also designed for readers unfamiliar with them. |
