James 2:18-22 (paraphrased) You believe that there is one God, you do well. Even the demons believe—and tremble! But do you want to know, O foolish man, Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar? Do you see that faith was working together with his works, and by works faith was made perfect?
John 17:9-10 (paraphrased) I pray for them. I do not pray for the world but for those whom You have given Me, for they are yours. And all Mine are Yours, and Yours are Mine and I am glorified in them

00:00 Praise Jesus Christ. Praise Jesus Christ. Indeed. Power of Christ.
00:04 Daily tithing Scriptures. What exactly did Jesus Christ say on tithing to the Pharisees? First we’re looking at Matthew 23:23. What exactly did Jesus Christ say? Woe unto you.
00:20 Can you imagine? He’s saying literally, Jesus saying to the Pharisees, woe. Woe unto you Pharisees, hypocrites, for you pay tithes of mint and anise and cumin. What is all this? What are they saying? Mint, anise and cumin.
00:40 Is it money? No, it is mint, onion and Cuban. Of course, when they cannot carry anything, they will change the money and can give. But the point again is the tithing is on the mint, onions and cumin, on the growth.
00:54 Because earlier already in Leviticus we have settled it. God says, I gave you the growth in the land and the flock. 10% is mine.
01:02 So your heart will not think you believe. You better understand, I’m God. That’s why he put the institute, the rule there.
01:09 But Jesus Christ came and fulfilled it by having said this. He said woe. You know woe.
01:15 Why woe? You are not dealing with the more weightier, more important matters of law, justice, mercy and faith. You’re not dealing with the more important matters of law, justice, mercy and faith. It is a shame.
01:30 Sadly, there are a lot of charities today. They won’t deal with the law, justice, mercy and faith. They only do the title typing.
01:37 Title tidings. It’s a sad thing. And they get angry when somebody approaches this topic.
01:41 Why? It looks like cutting into the income. They first turn to Christ. And every sincere, truthful pastor will go to Jesus and ask him.
01:51 You’ll ask the Holy Spirit, Holy Spirit, am I doing right or wrong? Am I focusing so much on the tithing tidings? Am I not living by faith? Am I not walking in faith? How can I give faith to congregation when I myself don’t walk in faith? Ask Jesus Christ and he’ll tell you no about getting angry with the people who are telling the truth. But you don’t want to follow. It’s your choice.
02:12 But this the word of God. Woe. Woe means destruction.
02:16 No destruction for those who are tithing. Tithing, mint and anise and fuming they are. Woe.
02:23 Why they are not looking at the faith, the justice, the law and the mercy. And let’s look at what in Luke. In Luke also is war.
02:32 Woe unto the Pharisees. Why? Because same thing you are giving. Tithe of mint and rue and all that.
02:40 That’s herbs and all. But you don’t care. You just simply ignore the justice and the love of God.
02:48 Love of God. That’s why, let’s remember the love of Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ loves you.
02:51 Jesus Christ loves you. You better tell Jesus Christ loves me. Jesus Christ loves me.
02:57 Jesus Christ fulfilled the commandments. Jesus Christ fulfilled the Old Testament requirements. He has fulfilled it on the cross.
03:04 He fulfilled my sins. Even your sins are washed away by his blood. Why wouldn’t you wash away this staging story? But now in Christ, everything belongs to Jesus.
03:14 When you came to Jesus, humble yourself. Say, Lord Jesus, everything is yours. I am yours.
03:19 You own me. Everything I have, my breath is yours. Without you, I have no breath, Lord Jesus.
03:26 Thank you, Lord Jesus, for grave on the cross six hours and taking hundreds of tears on your body to save me now, Lord Jesus, everything is yours. You tell me, Lord, how much to give, who to give? Because you said as many as are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God. You also told in your word, Lord Jesus Christ, that those who come to you, who receive you, you give them power to be sons of God.
03:51 Now I receive the power, Lord Jesus. I must walk in the power. The power.
03:55 The righteousness of Jesus is on me. I must walk in the righteousness of Christ, Lord Jesus. Your word also says that those who are practicing sin are born of the devil.
04:05 Are born of the devil. I don’t want to practice sin anymore, Lord Jesus. I want to walk in your righteousness.
04:10 Make me walk in your righteousness. Blood of Jesus. Thank you, Lord Jesus, Your name above all names.
04:16 I invoke your name and I walk in righteousness. And therefore, Lord Jesus, everything belongs to you, Lord. Lord, in the New Testament you clearly said, those who purpose in our heart give from what I have.
04:27 What I have, Lord Jesus. Thank you, Lord Jesus, everything is yours. You tell me, Lord, what I must give.
04:33 You know my condition, Lord. So tell me what I give, how much I give, to whom I give, when I give. Because all my direction must be youe.
04:43 My steps of righteous man are ordered by youy, Lord Jesus. You order my steps, you make me walk, Lord Jesus, thank youk, Lord Jesus, for this wonderful and the tremendous satisfaction. You saved me.
04:55 You saved all my sins. Even those who are murderers, you saved. And you already said, those who are angry with a brother without a cause is a murderer.
05:04 And those who repent, you save them also. You saved all my sins. I was a wicked, wicked person.
05:10 And you paid the price for it. And so now you own everything. Because you saved me with your own Blood and life.
05:19 So my life is yours. You tell me, Lord Jesus, make me hear. You say those who are led by the spirit of God are sons of God.
05:27 I want to hear. Exactly, Lord, teach me to hear. Make me hear and walk in the path that you want me to go.
05:33 And you make me, Lord Jesus. First of all, you say believers will cast out devils in your name. I will do that now, Lord Jesus.
05:40 I start casting out every wicked, unclean spirit of mind controlling spirit. Get out in the name of Jesus Christ. Mind controlling spirit.
05:45 Get out in the name of Jesus Christ. Fear, spirit of fear. Get out in the name of Jesus Christ.
05:52 Lord Jesus. You clearly said you did not give me a spirit of fear, but sound mind, boldness and love. And love, Lord Jesus.
05:59 Yes, Lord. And you make me a holy priest. I want to walk as a holy priest.
06:04 Lord Jesus, make me walk as holy priest. And you say you gave me a ministry to reconcile man to God. I want to reconcile man to God.
06:12 Make me do it, Lord. Make me, Lord. And so if you tell me to give you 10 times, 10 times you give me.
06:17 Don’t need to give, I won’t give. Give everything I own. I give everything I own.
06:22 You will empower me. Because by the blood and the name, I can give it whatever in my pocket. Last me to give, Lord.
06:28 I give because you are my God. This 10% thing is for the Old Testament, for the Jews, because you put a rule for them. Because they were rebellious people and they don’t have the Holy Spirit.
06:39 So I can’t complain about them because I myself a wicked fellow and you saved me and. But because you gave us the Holy Spirit under the New Testament. I pity them, Lord.
06:48 They don’t have the Holy Spirit. But you gave them opportunity to turn to you. Because Lord Jesus, you said you came for the house of Israel, you came for the lordship of Israel.
06:57 And therefore Lord Jesus came for them. And those rejected you. But some accepted.
07:02 We are believing and praying that all the Jews will accept. Which you said, you will do it, Lord. But at the same time, the Old Testament has been fulfilled by you.
07:11 Under the New Testament, I must. I surrendered all, Lord Jesus, you believe me. You know my situation, Lord, if you tell me to give everything from my pocket, everything from my wages even.
07:23 But you’re clear, Lord Jesus, I will give it. Because everything owns. Even my wages owned by you, Lord Jesus.
07:29 But in the Old Testament, a laborer is worthy of wages, Lord Jesus, I give everything away. That’s my will. I surrender my will.
07:39 I want the will of Christ. I want the mind of Christ, Lord Jesus. But I don’t want to be caught by the Old Testament laws.
07:46 Because your word also says, anyone wants to obey the Old Testament laws, then I must perform all the laws. And you came, Lord Jesus, simply because no one could fulfill the laws. No one could fulfill the laws.
08:00 And therefore everyone was unrighteous. Everyone. And their righteousness was a filthy rag.
08:05 So was mine, Lord. So was mine. I thank you, Lord Jesus, for saving me.

Leviticus 27:30 New King James Version
30 And all the tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land or of the fruit of the tree, is the Lord’s. It is holy to the Lord. 32 And concerning the tithe of the herd or the flock, of whatever passes under the rod, the tenth one shall be holy to the Lord.

00:00 Praise Jesus Christ. Praise Jesus Christ. Indeed. Power of Christ.
00:04 Daily. Today the series is teaching on tithing scriptures. Tithing scriptures.
00:09 Now very important. Jesus Christ, when you accepted Jesus Christ, he gives you the Holy Spirit. And he said the Holy Spirit will bring to memory all that Jesus Christ has spoken and he’ll bring you into all truth.
00:25 And the Holy Spirit will teach you. But you have to take the scriptures and read. So today the tithing scriptures in Leviticus 27:30 and verse 32, we are dealing with this.
00:27 But you have to be led by the Spirit of God. As many as are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God. So if you do not use the mind of Christ to read this, then you will be reading it legalistically.
00:50 Legalistically. Letter kills, will give life. That’s another scripture.
00:56 So please do not listen to me. I’m just showing you. Don’t put your faith in any man, including me.
01:03 Put your faith in the Almighty God, Jesus Christ, who came and suffered and died on the cross and rose again. And Father God said he has lifted his name above all names. So Jesus and put everything under Jesus.
01:15 Father God has clearly said this. We have put everything under Jesus. That means we go to Jesus.
01:21 So some are still saying Lord, Father, this, that everything else. But Father God himself said he has put everything under Jesus. And it will be under Jesus until the end of the 1000 year rule by Christ and Christ Jesus will settle everything and hand it back to Father God.
01:39 So now let’s read. But read with the mind of Christ. Mind of Christ is what? First.
01:43 God is love. God is holy. God is just.
01:45 God is just. And there are many attributes of God. We are looking at these three attributes and read with that.
01:52 That’s why God says in Isaiah 28, learn the Scriptures how. Precept by precept, line upon line. Precept of God.
02:01 So now we are dealing with Leviticus 27:30. Leviticus of course is a command. It’s a law given by God to the Israelites.
02:11 He’s under the Old Testament or Old Covenant. The Old Covenant. Jesus Christ.
02:17 The Word of God in the New Covenant. The Word of God calls it Ministry of death. In the New Covenant.
02:24 The Old Covenant. It’s called ministry of death. In the New Covenant.
02:30 Each of us who accepted Jesus Christ as Lord, Savior, God and Master and surrendered all to Him. You have surrendered everything. Use that mind.
02:38 Mind of Christ. I surrendered everything. Everything belongs to Him.
02:41 Everything I have. My body, my life, my breath, everything. My pains, my troubles, my curses.
02:49 Everything will be handed over to Jesus Christ. Because I am owned by Jesus Christ. Read with that mind.
02:54 The mind says I own nothing. He owns everything. He owns me.
02:59 And I must be a slave unto righteousness. So does Jesus Christ own you? Then you listen to Jesus Christ. If Jesus Christ doesn’t own you because you’re keeping something for yourself or not, then you got a problem.
03:11 For instance, let us say you didn’t surrender everything. You didn’t surrender your bank account to Lord Jesus. Jesus, this is your bank account.
03:19 This account is not mine anymore. It’s yours, Lord. So you show me, Lord.
03:23 Everything I spend, you must show me, Lord. Because you said as many as are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God. I must hear you, Lord.
03:31 So I want to hear you, Lord. So every cent I spend is yours, Lord. Because it’s given to you, you own it.
03:37 So you will guide me, direct me what to give, when to give, who to give. Now that’s the mind of Christ we are going to deal with with that mind. Let’s look at the old testament.
03:47 Leviticus 27:30, which Jesus said, he has come and fulfilled it. Fulfilled it. No, completed it.
03:54 Fulfilled it, didn’t abolish it. The old covenant not abolished. Because God’s covenant are yes and yes.
04:01 And once given, they are irrevocable. We cannot take it back, is different. So God’s covenant will not be taken back, but God’s covenant.
04:09 God can improve. That’s what he did. He completed it.
04:13 He died on the cross himself. He fulfilled everything. And now he calls us unto us and says, we are holy priests unto him.
04:21 We are holy priest. You are a holy priest. If you want to follow Jesus Christ, you are a holy priest.
04:26 Read with that mind. You are a holy priest. You belong to Jesus.
04:29 Everything is given to Jesus. Everything owned by Jesus. You own nothing.
04:33 Jesus will guide you. What to give, how much to give, who to give. And now we’re reading.
04:37 And Jesus fulfilled the old covenant. And now we read that Leviticus 27:30 and all the tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land or of the fruit of the tree or the Lord’s. It is holy.
04:53 It is the Lord’s. It is holy to the Lord. Simply put, whether anything from the land, whether the seed or the land of the land, seed of the land, of the fruit of the tree is a Lord’s.
05:07 So seed of the land and fruit of the tree is a Lord. Jesus owns it. God owns it, Phyllis.
05:13 And so he said, you tithe 10%. 10% whatever came out. Because first fruits the fruits, because the farmer sows and all.
05:23 But only God Almighty gives the growth. Only it gives a multiplication. One seed you put may have 30, 60, 100Fs coming out.
05:31 One pair of animals. You have two goats, male, female. You left lot of small goats.
05:37 So he says one tenth of that belongs to him because he wants precept again. He wants the Israelites to know because they are stubborn people. They were.
05:46 So he said, look here. So you give 1/10 to me, I own it because I gave the. I gave the increase.
05:53 It’s not wages. Not wages. Wages he never touched, he never talked about.
05:58 Because the man is worthy of his wages. Do not muzzle the ox that tracks the wheat. So it’s not wages.
06:05 He’s talking about land. He’s talking about the seed that comes out of the land, the fruit of the tree. He’s talking about that.
06:11 And in Leviticus 27:32, he’s talking about tenth of the herd of the flock. So whatever the flocks produced, they increased 10%. So you have 10 new calves.
06:23 One calf has to go there. So now again, I’m telling you all, please, Jesus Christ wants to talk to you. You please read the scripture with the mind of Christ.
06:34 You must listen to your God. You don’t just put faith in man, including me. Then you’ll put a snare.
06:40 We have taught all this earlier. You put a faith in man, it’s a curse. And you fear man.
06:46 There’s a snare like an animal trap. Don’t do that. So please, use the mind of Christ.
06:52 It is not wages. They’re not talking about wages in Leviticus at all. A laborer is worthy of his wages.
06:59 So please. This is talking about increase in the flock, increase in the farming. Please.
07:05 So it is 10% of death. All right. Thank you, Father.
07:09 In the name of Jesus Christ, I pray you all meditate on this and get it very deep into you. The tithing in the Old Testament is about the growth from plants and animals that God gave the increase. Amen.

1 Corinthians 8:2 New King James Version
2 And if anyone thinks that he knows anything, he knows nothing yet as he ought to know.
AI-generated transcript below — please excuse any errors
00:00 Praise Jesus Christ. Praise Jesus Christ indeed. This important question, somebody asked me that how to apply First Corinthians 8:2. Because I keep telling people this.
00:10 First Corinthians 8:2 has kept me safe. When I came to our Lord Jesus Christ, I went to a seminar and there this servant was saying that First Corinthians 8:2 and First Corinthians 8:2 says. And if anyone thinks that he knows anything, if anyone.
00:27 I’m reading from King James, New King James. If anyone thinks that he knows anything, he knows nothing yet as he ought to know. That made a big impression on my soul and Jesus Christ made it that before I came to Christ, I thought I knew some things.
00:44 Yeah, because I got all kinds of understanding, all kinds of qualifications and the worldly things. I knew physics, I know chemistry, I knew mathematics, I knew quite a bit of mathematics, quite a bit of physics, pure maths, actuarial science. So obviously this thing got me.
01:03 And because my understanding was so much and so many things, people just cannot argue because I bring them all kinds of discussion and they cannot beat the logic. My logic will not be beatable because I’ll argue with them and I’ll bring understanding from various resources, either from social science or actual science or something you know, or actuarial science. And many of them do not know actuarial signs.
01:28 So what is this? If anyone thinks that he knows anything, he knows nothing yet as he ought to know. And how are you going to apply it to keep you safe? Remember, there are other scriptures. There seems that something is right in a man.
01:41 That seems as a past that is right and in the end it brings destruction. This from the Old Testament. And then there are other scriptures.
01:50 Lean not on your own understanding. But this is in the New Testament. If anyone thinks he knows anything, he knows nothing yet as he ought to know.
01:58 And that when made impression, I started applying it. So every time there are some issues, I will simply say, okay, Lord Jesus, I go to Jesus. This is the greatest thing you can do.
02:09 Call on his name immediately. Lord Jesus, I do not understand. Your word is clear.
02:12 I do not know anything yet as I ought to know. So I will wait until I settle my spirit. As many are led by the Spirit of God or sons of God.
02:23 This also I knew. Only led by the Spirit of God as sons of God, anyone. There’s now no condemnation for those who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
02:34 So there’s no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. But if you’re using a carnal mind, your natural Mind you will be condemned. Because natural mind has got its own set of flaws.
02:44 It is controlled by the worldly information. You have to be led by the mind of your spirit man, which has to be filled with the word of God. That is why seeking the word of God in each case, not just not a question of reading Bible, Bible, Bible every day, but every issue you face.
02:59 Go and search the scriptures. Fill yourself with that scripture, both what to do? What are the consequences if you break those scriptures? What are the consequences that happen to you? Always remember, when you break the word of God, the devil will take control. He uses this as a foothold and steal, steal and destroy.
03:17 Why all this? So how to apply two elements here? When you are thinking in your natural mind, when you are thinking in the natural mind, the word of God calls it carnal mind. And remember, the natural mind cannot be brought to the subjection under the word of God. That God himself said, the natural mind cannot be brought under the subjection to the word of God.
03:38 So it’s pointless trying to deal with it things of God better one understand that’s the natural mind. That’s how we were and our spirit man was dead in sin. As soon as I accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord, Saviour, God and master, your spirit man becomes alive because he accepted as a sinner.
03:55 And the blood of Jesus washes away the sin. And your spirit man becomes alive. But your spirit man is now weak because doesn’t have the feeling of the word of God.
04:04 The word of God is a food anyway. When you’re using a natural mind, this scripture will make you understand that no matter what you understand in physics and science and whatnot, or even the social science or financial matters, or your management matters, or whatever, you must remember and tell your carnal mind, your earthly mind, that is your natural mind, that you don’t know the whole story. You do not know the whole story.
04:31 You do not know the story. There’s somebody telling you something, you do not know what the agenda, you do not know the agenda. They may be telling lies for you to move, especially now, social media, all kinds of lies.
04:45 So you do not know the whole story. You must keep on training your heart and mind that no matter what I hear, I do not know the whole story. And therefore I have to find out.
04:53 I have to now go to Jesus Christ. So now when we go to the spiritual side, the mind of the spirit and the spirit man’s mind, which has to be filled with the word of God, you will know one thing that you certainly do not know, because you do not know the spirit world. This is what was impressed upon me.
05:15 I do not know the spirit world. When Jesus Christ saved me, I was shell shocked. God is real.
05:20 God is real. Jesus is real. Jesus is real.
05:24 And then I begin to see, hey, God is spirit. Worship him in spirit and in truth. So the spirit world will control everything starts in the spirit and ends in the spirit.
05:34 So you better start remembering that. That’s how you apply this scripture. You start remembering the fact there’s another scripture which says, look at the things unseen.
05:43 For the things that are seen are made from material unseen. Look above, he says, look in the spirit. This is a commander, it’s not a request.
05:51 So when you are looking at this scripture, you have to look at the other side, the spiritual side, whereby everything has come from the spirit. Jesus came from the spirit world. So now we are ourselves, spirit men.
06:05 That’s why I tell women you are women in the physical, but actually you are a brother. That’s why the Bible just talks of brethren. Why those who are born again in the spirit and following Jesus Christ, they are all brethren.
06:19 Because there’s no male or female in Christ. There’s no Jew or Gentile in Christ. There’s only one Christian.
06:26 And Christian means obeying the word of God and walking in the commandments of Jesus Christ. So if you train your heart and mind, remember your carnal mind, your natural mind will not subject itself to the Word of God. But you, your spirit man, must rise up and tell the carnal mind, the natural mind, to stand down.
06:47 Stop it. Because I know what the Word of God says. The Word of God says if I think I know something, I do not know anything yet as I want to know.
06:55 It simply means that it’s true. Because the Word of God is Jesus Christ and it’s the truth and he cannot lie. Therefore, I will go to the Word of God.
07:04 I will seek the Word of God. I will eat, consume the Word of God. Because the Word of God is Jesus.
07:10 And I will wait on the Word of God until I have peace in Christ. Only then I will move. This is how I was kept.
07:17 Saved by the way. Keep on going to Jesus Christ, knowing fully. Well, if I think I know anything, I do not know nothing yet as I ought to know.
07:25 So please, if you want to be safe in Christ, if you want to make sure the devil doesn’t steal, kill and destroy you and your livelihood, you please remember the scripture. And please remember, do not lean on your own understanding. Your own understanding will bring you the destruction we don’t have to be destroyed.
07:43 We are sons of God. As many as are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God. Amen.
