Welcome to
a. Tithing
Leviticus 27:30-33; 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 unto the LORD. 27:31 And if a man will at all redeem ought of his tithes, he shall add thereto the fifth part thereof. 27:32 And concerning the tithe of the herd, or of the flock, even of whatsoever passeth under the rod, the tenth shall be holy unto the LORD. 27:33 He shall not search whether it be good or bad, neither shall he change it: and if he change it at all, then both it and the change thereof shall be holy; it shall not be redeemed.
Deuteronomy 16:17 Every man shall give as
he
is able, according to the blessing of the LORD thy God which he hath
given
thee.
Matthew 5:42 Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away.
1 Corinthians 1:3-4 Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ. 1:4 I thank my God always on your behalf, for the grace of God which is given you by Jesus Christ.
Luke 6:34-35 And if ye lend to them of whom ye hope to receive, what thank have ye? for sinners also lend to sinners, to receive as much again. 6:35 But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil.
c. Sowing and Harvesting
Genesis 8:22 While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.
Psalms 126:5-6 They that sow in tears
shall reap in joy[or singing] 126:6 He that goeth forth and weepeth,
bearing
precious seed[or, seed basket], shall doubtless come again with
rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.
Mark 4:1-20 4:1 And
he began again to teach by the sea side: and there was gathered unto
him
a great multitude, so that he entered into a ship, and sat in the sea;
and the whole multitude was by the sea on the land. 4:2 And he
taught them
many things by parables, and said unto them in his doctrine, 4:3
Hearken;
Behold, there went out a sower to sow: 4:4 And it came to pass, as
he sowed,
some fell by the way side, and the fowls of the air came and
devoured it
up. 4:5 And some fell on stony ground,
where
it had not much earth; and immediately it sprang up, because it had no
depth of earth: 4:6 But when the sun was up, it was scorched; and
because
it had no root, it withered away. 4:7 And some fell among thorns,
and the
thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruit. 4:5 And
other fell
on good ground, and did yield fruit that sprang up and increased;
and brought
forth, some thirty, and some sixty, and some an hundred. 4:9 And he
said
unto them, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear. 4:10 And when he
was
alone, they that were about him with the twelve asked of him the
parable.
4:11 And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery
of
the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things
are
done in parables: 4:12 That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and
hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest at any time they
should
be converted, and their sins should be forgiven them. 4:13 And he said
unto them, Know ye not this parable? and how then will ye know all
parables?
4:14 The sower soweth the word. 4:15 And these are they by the way
side,
where the word is sown; but when they have heard, Satan cometh
immediately,
and taketh away the word that was sown in their hearts. 4:16 And these
are they likewise which are sown on stony ground; who, when they
have heard
the word, immediately receive it with gladness; 4:17 And have no
root in
themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward, when affliction
or
persecution ariseth for the word's sake, immediately they are offended
[, stumbled, or, caused to fall into sin]. 4:18 And these are
they
which are sown among thorns; such as hear the word, 4:19 And the cares
of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts
[or, inordinate
desires] of other things entering in, choke the word, and it
becometh
unfruitful. 4:20 And these are they which are sown on good ground;
such
as hear the word, and receive it, and bring forth fruit, some
thirtyfold,
some sixty, and some an hundred.
John 4:36-38 And
he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life
eternal:
that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice
together.37And
herein is that saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth.
38I
sent you to reap that whereon ye bestowed no labour: other men
laboured,
and ye are entered into their labours.
James 4:13-15 Go to now, ye that say, To day or to morrow we will go into such city, and continue there a year, and buy and sell, and get gain: 14Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away. 15For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that.
Proverbs 8:13 The fear of the LORD is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.
Luke 12: 4-5, 32,
4And
I say unto you my friends, Be not afraid of them that kill the body,
and
after that have no more that they can do. 5But
I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which after he
hath killed
hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear
him.
32Fear
not, little flock; for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you
the
kingdom.
John 14:27 Peace
I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth,
give
I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be
afraid.
1 John 5:16-21 If any man see
his brother
sin a sin which is not unto death, he shall ask, and he shall
give
him life for them that sin not unto death. There is a sin unto
death: I
do not say that he shall pray for it. 17All unrighteousness
is sin: and there is a sin not unto death. 18We
know that
whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God
keepeth
himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not. 19And
we know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness.
20And
we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an
understanding,
that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true,
even
in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.
21Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen.
2 Timothy 1:16-17 The Lord give
mercy
unto the house of Onesiphorus[Bringing profit, an Ephesian Christian];
for he oft refreshed me, and was not ashamed of my chain:
17But,
when he was in Rome, he sought me out very diligently, and found
me.
Matthew 11:29-30
Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart:
and ye shall find rest unto your souls. 30
For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
John 14:13-15; And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father
may be glorified in the Son. 14If ye
shall ask any thing in my name, I will do
it.
Proverbs 18:24 A man that hath friends must show himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.
