Spiritual giving is to give out of a pure heart of love, but you cannot give out of a pure heart of love, if your love is not pure love!~
Everyone talks a good game when it comes to love, everyone claims they love, and they claim they are in love, but many people love with conditions, and their love is conditional, based off what they can receive in return for their love!
Brothers and sisters, giving is the principle part of love, and when your love is true love, then you give just because love compels you to give!
The tithe is not something people give out of true love for GOD, for people only give the tithe because the Old Testament law says you are cursed with a curse, if you don’t give the tithe!
The tithe is an old testament law, that has penalties for not paying 10% of your money, but many people only give the tithe because they want to receive something from GOD, they’re trying to pay for their sins against GOD, they’re trying to pay for salvation, or they’re just trying to avoid a curse!~
But true giving is love, for love is gives out of a pure heart, not with conditions, for true love is not conditional!
Brothers and sisters, JESUS is love, JESUS gave love out of a pure heart, JESUS taught his disciples love, and JESUS lived a life of love, for he gave his life for love!~
“Listen to love give love, and love teach love!”~
(Matthew 5:38-48) JESUS SAYS, You have heard that it has been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth: But I say unto you, That you do not resist evil: but whosoever shall smite you on your right cheek, turn to him the other also.
And if any man will sue you at the law, and take away your coat, let him have your cloke also.
And whosoever shall compel you to go a mile, go with him two miles.
Give to him that ask of you, and from him that would borrow of you do not you turn away.
You have heard that it has been said, you shall love your neighbour, and hate your enemy. But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; That you may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he makes his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. For if you love them which love you, what reward do you have?
Do not even the tax collectors do the same?
And if you salute your brethren only, what do you more than others? Do not even the tax collectors do so? Be you therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
Brothers and sisters, JESUS is saying love is perfect, for real love gives love without conditions, respect of persons, or hypocrisy, for real love is pure, real love is perfect!
But is your love pure, is your love perfect that is the question?
(Acts 4:31-37) And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spake the word of God with boldness.
And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul: neither said any of them that ought of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common.
And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all.
Neither was there any among them that lacked: for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold, And laid them down at the apostles’ feet: and distribution was made unto every man according as he had need.
And Joses, who by the apostles was surnamed Barnabas, (which is, being interpreted, The son of consolation,) a Levite, and of the country of Cyprus, Having land, sold it, and brought the money, and laid it at the apostles’ feet.
Brothers and sisters, this is real kingdom giving, for they gave their all to the need of those who were in need, and no man had need, for they all gave out of a pure heart, and it made no difference whether they were rich or poor, for they all gave their all!
Now If only GOD’S people can grasp this truth, if only GOD’S people didn’t love with conditions, if only GOD’S people knew real love, if they really knew JESUS like they claim they know him!~
(John 3:16-21) JESUS SAYS, For God so loved the world, that he GAVE his only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
He that believes on him is not condemned: but he that believes not is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
For every one that does evil hates the light, neither comes to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.
But he that does truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
“THIS IS REAL LOVE IN ITS PUREST FORM, THIS IS REAL LOVE GIVING OUT OF A PURE HEART, BUT IS THIS TYPE OF LOVE IN YOU, THAT IS THE QUESTION?”
