Bring In The Whole Tithe?

Preacher: Brandon Babcock Series: Straight Outta Context - 2 Scripture: Malachi 3:6–12

BRING IN THE WHOLE TITHE?

Malachi 3:6-12

Straight Twisted Trifecta:

  • Scare tactic, the prosperity gospel, and “status” Christianity, oh my!

The Context:

Nehemiah 13, Genesis 14:18-20, Leviticus 27:30-32, Numbers 18:21-31, Deuteronomy 14:22-29, Psalm 24:1, James 1:17

  • Covenant faithfulness – a faithless people who need to return to right relationship with a loving God.
  • The people were robbing God in tithes and offerings.

Living (out the text) in (its) Context:

Reflection

  • Is God calling me to raise my faith in the area of tithes and offerings?
  • What does my attitude about financial giving reveal about my commitment to God?

Response

  • Live knowing that all Jesus wants from us is all of us.
  • Renew my trust in God for the provisions of life.
