Revelation 10 And Why The Delay

The 6th Trumpet

Revelation 10

• 1 Then in saw another mighty angel coming down from heaven. He was robed in a cloud, with a rainbow above his head, his face was like the sun, and his legs were like fiery pillars
• 2 He was holding a little scroll (The scroll from Revelation 5:1 Then I saw in the right hand of him who sat on the throne a scroll with writing on both sides and sealed with seven seals), which lay open in his hand

The Lamb was found worthy of breaking the 7 seals and open the scroll Revelation 5

• 2 And I saw a mighty angel proclaiming in a loud voice, "Who is worthy to break the seals and open the scroll? "
• 3 But no one in heaven or on the earth or under the earth could open the scroll or even look inside it.
• 4 I wept and wept because no one was worthy to open the scroll or look inside it
• 5 Then one of the elders said to me, "Do not weep! See, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has triumphed. He is able to open the scroll and it's seven seals
• 6 Then I saw a Lamb, looking as if it had been slain, standing in the center of the throne, encircled by the four living creatures and elders

• 3 and he gave a loud shout like the roar of a lion. When he shouted, the voices of the 7 thunders spoke
• 4 And when the 7 thunders spoke, I was about to write, but I heard a voice from heaven say, "Seal up what the 7 thunders have said and do not write it down"
• 5 Then the angel I had seen standing on the sea and on the land raised his right hand to heaven.
• 6 and he swore by him who lives forever and ever, who created the heavens and all that is in them, the earth and all that is in it, and the sea and all that is in it, and said "There will be no more delay!"
• 7 But in the days when the seven angel is about to sound his trumpet (before Revelation 11:15 The seventh angel sounded his trumpet ), the mystery of God will be accomplished (Revelation 11:1-14 The 2 witnesses and Satan), just as he announced to his servants the prophets
• 8 Then the voice that I had heard from heaven spoke to me once more: "Go, take the scroll that lies open in the hand of the angel who is standing on the sea and on the land"
• 9 So I went to the angel and asked him to give me the little scroll. He said to me, "Take it and eat it. It will turn your stomach sour, but in your mouth it will be as sweet as honey."
• 10 I took the little scroll from the angel's hand and ate it. It tasted sweet as honey in my mouth, but when I had eaten it, my stomach turned sour.
• 11 Then I was told, "You must prophesy again about many people, nations, languages and kings."

WHY THE DELAY? 

2 Peter 3

• 3 First of all, you must understand that in the last days scoffers will come, scoffing and following their own evil desires. 
• 4 They will say, "Where is this 'coming' he promised? Ever since our fathers died, everything goes on as it has since the beginning of creation"

1 Timothy 4

• 1 The Spirit Cleary says that in the later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons
• 2 Such teaching came through hypocritical lairs, whose consciences have been scared as with hot iron
• 3 They forbid people to marry and order them to abstain from certain foods, which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and who know the truth. 

Joel 2

• 28 "Afterwards I will pour out my Spirit on everyone: your sons and daughters will proclaim my message, your old people will have dreams, and your young people will see visions
• 29 At that time I will pour out my Spirit even on my servants, both men and women

2 Timothy 3

• 1 But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days
• 2 People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, 
• 3 without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of good,
• 4 treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God-
• 5 havings a form of godliness but denying it's power. Have nothing to do with them
• 6 They are the kind who worm their way into homes and gain control over weak-willed woman, who are looked down with sins and are swayed by all kinds of evil desires
• 7 always learning but never able to acknowledge the truth

2 Timothy 4

• 3 For the time will come when men will not put up sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their ears, want to heat
• 4 They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths. 

Mark 16

• 17 Believers will be given the power to perform miracles: they will drive out demons in my name, they will speak in strange tounges
• 18 if they pick up snake's or drink any poison, they will not be harmed, they will place their hands on sick people, who will get well. 

2 Thessalonians 2:1-12

2 Thessalonians

• 1 Now brethren, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together with Him,

1 Thessalonians 4 

• 15 According to the Lord's own word, we tell you that we who are still alive, who are left till the coming of the Lord, will certainly not precede those who have fallen asleep
• 16 For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first?
• 17 After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. 

• 1 we ask you,
• 2 not to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as if from us, as though the day of Christ had come
• 3 Let no one deceive you by any means, m for that day (1 Thessalonians 4 :15-17) will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin (Revelation 13:1 And I saw a beast coming out of the sea) is revealed, the son of perdition
• 4 Who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God
• 5 Do you not remember that when I was still with you I told you all these things?
• 6 And now you not what is restraining (Revelation 9:1 The fifth angel sounded his trumpet, and I saw a star that had fallen from the sky to the earth. The star was given the key to the shaft of the abyss.), that he may be revealed in his own time (Revelation 13).
• 7 For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work and He who now restains will do so until he is taken away (Revelation 9).
• 8 And then the lawless one will be revealed (Revelation 13), who the Lord will consume with his breath of his mouth and destroy with brightness of his coming 

Revelation 19:20 But the beast was captured, and with him the false prophet who had performed the miraculous signs on his behalf. With these signs he had deluded tho had received the mark of the beast and worshiped his image. The two of them were thrown alive into the fiery lake of burning sulphur. 

• 9 The coming of the lawless one (Revelation 13) is according to the working of Satan (Revelation 13:2 The dragon gave the beast his power and his throne and great authority ), with all the power, signs and lying wonders 

Revelation 13

• 11 Then I saw another beast, coming out of the earth. He had two horns like lamb, but he spoke like a dragon. 
• 13 And he performed great and miraculous signs, even causing fire to come down from heaven to earth in full view of men.

• 10 And will all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not love the truth, that they might be saved 
• 11 All for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe lie
• 12 That they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness

The 2 Groups Of Saints Tribulation

The 1st Group Of The Tribulation Saints

The book of Revelation was written during the time when christians were beign persecuted because of their faith Christ Jesus. When John saw all these visions he was putted on the Island of Potmos Revelation 1:9

Remember Paul said "For the secret power of the lawlessness is already at work, but the one who holds it back will continue to do so until he is taken away" 2 Thessalonians 2:7

Revelation 6

• 9 When he (the Lamb) opened the 5th seal, I (John) saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain because of the word of God and testimony they had maintained. 
• 10 They called out in a loud voice, "How long, Sovereign Lord, Holy and true, until you judge the inhabitants of the earth and avenge our blood? "
• 11 Then each of them was given a white robe and they were told to wait a little longer, until the number of their fellow servants and brothers who were to be killed as they had been was completed
• 12 I watched as he opened the 6th seal

On the 6th seal there is the 1st group of the 144,000 on Revelation 7 of Israel. They are sealed on the 6th seal with the name of God

Revelation 7:3-4. They were sealed so that they would not get harmed by the locusts of Satan on the 5th trumpet on Revelation 9. Then John saw a great multitude in white robes.

Revelation 7

• 9 After this I looked and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, m from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and in front of the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches in their hands

On the 5th seal they were seen under the altar and given robes to wait a little longer for the rest of the saints to be killed like them are all killed.

On the 6th seal they are standing before the throne and in front of the Lamb and are wearing white robes. They were also holding palm branches

• 10 And they cried in a loud voice: "Salvation belongs to our God, who sits on the throne and to the Lamb." 
• 13 Then one of the elders asked me, "These in white robes-who are they, and where did they come from?"
• 14 I answered, "Sir, you know" And he said,"These are they who have come out of the great tribulation, they had washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. 
• 15 Therefore, "they are before the throne of God and serve him say and night in his temple, and he who sits on the throne will spread his Tent over them
• 16 Never again will they hunger, never again will they thirst. The sun will not beat upon them, nor any scorching heat
• 17 For the Lamb at the center of the throne will be their shepherd, he will lead then to spring of living water. And God will wipe away every tears from their eyes."

The 7th Seal
Revelation 8

• 1 When he opened the 7th seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour
• 2 And I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and to them were given seven trumpets
• 3 Another angel, who had a golden censer, came and stood at the altar. He was given much incense to offer, with the prayers of all the saints, on the golden altar before the throne
• 4 The smoke of the incense, together with the prayers of the saints, went up before God from the angel's hand. 
• 5 Then the angel took the censer, filled it with fire from the altar, and hurled it on the earth, and there came peals of thunder, rumblings, flashes of lightning and an earthquake.

Then the 7 angels who had the 7 trumpets prepared to sound them.
After the 7 Trumpets were sounded there was harvest on the earth preparing the 7 last plagues that completes God's wrath.

The Second Group Of Tribulation Saints

Revelation 15

• 1 I saw in heaven another great and marvelous sign: 7 angels with the 7 last Plagues last because with them God's wrath is completed.
• 2 And I was what looked like a sea of glass mixed with fire, and standing besides the sea, those who had been victorious over the beast and his image and over the number of his image (Revelation 13). They held harps given them by God. 
• 3 and sang the song of Moses the servant of God and the song of the Lamb: "Great and marvelous are your deeds, Lord God Almighty. Just and true are your ways, King of the ages
• 4 Who will not fear you, O Lord, and bring glory to your name? For you alone are holy. All nations will come and worship before you, for your righteous acts have been revealed. 

After the 7 plagues on those who had the mark of the beast (Revelation 16), the beast and it's false prophet got thrown alive in the lake of sulphur (Revelation 19:20). Then Satan got bound with heavy chain for a thousand years in the abyss (Revelation 20:1-3)

Revelation 20

• 4 I saw thrones on which were seated those who had been given authority to judge. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of their testimony for Jesus and because of the word of God. They had not worshipped the beast or its image and had not received his mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life and reigned with Christ a thousand years
• 5 (The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were ended) This is the first resurrection.
• 6 Blessed and Holy are those who have part in the first resurrection. The second death has no power over them, but they will be priests of God and Christ and will reign with him for a thousand years. 

The 2 Witnesses And Satan out of the abyss

After Satan was given the key to the abyss and the first woe Revelation 9 which was on the 5th trumpet which has passed, soon the delay on Revelation 10 will be over and Satan will be let out of the abyss for the Great Tribulation on Revelation 11 on the 6th trumpet, then on the 7th trumpet 12, and 13. Let's look at Rev 11

The 6th Trumpet

Revelation 11

• 1 I (John) was given a reed like a measuring rod and was told "Go and measure the temple of God and the altar, and count the worshippers there
• 2 But exclude the outer corner, do not measure it, because it has been given to the Gentiles. They will trample on the Holy City (Jerusalem) for 42 months
• 3 And I will give power to my two witnesses, and they will prophesy for 1260 days, clothed in sack cloth. 

The Gentiles are given 42 months to trample in Jerusalem while that happens God's two witnesses will prophesy for 42 months. All this will be in 3 and half years.

• 4 These are two olive trees and the two lampstands that stands before the Lord of the earth

Zechariah 4

• 2 He (the angel) asked me, "What do you see?" I answered, "I see a solid gold lampstand with a bowl at the top and seven lamps on it, with seven channels to the lamps
• 3 Also there are two olive trees by it, one on the right of bowl and the other on the left 
• 11 Then I asked the angel, "What are these two olive trees othe right and the left lampstand?
• 12 Again I asked him, "What are these two olive branches beside the two gold pipes that pour out golden oil
• 13 He replied, " Do you not know what these are?" "No, my lord?" I said.
• 14 So he said, "These are the two (men) who are anointed to serve the Lord of the earth. 

TEV Bible- "Then he said, "These are two men whom God has chosen and anointed to serve him, the Lord of the whole earth.

Revelation 11

• 5 If anyone tries to harm them (the 2 witnesses), fire comes out of their mouth (a miracle) and devour their enemies. This is how anyone who wants to harm them must die
• 6 These men have power to shut up the sky so that it will not rain (2nd miracle) during the time they are prophesying; and they have power to turn the waters into blood (3rd miracle) and strike the earth with every kind of plagues as often as they want (their authority over the earth)

SATAN OUT OF THE ABYSS

• 7 Now when they have finished their testimony (when the 42 months of the Gentiles trampling Jerusalem and God's 2 witnesses prophesying for 1260 days are over), the beast that comes out of the abyss will attack them, and over power and kill them (the 2 witnesses)

Satan is referred to as the serpent of old Revelation 12:9 and 20:2
Rev 12:9 "The great dragon was hurled down - that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan.

On Genesis 3:1 he is a beast
"Now the serpent was more crafty than any other beast "ḥay·yaṯ
"חַיַּ֣ת beast of the field that the LORD God had made.

Revelation 11

• 8 Their bodies will lie in the street of the great city, which is figuratively called Sodom and Egypt, where also their Lord was crucified. 
• 9 For three and half days men from every people, tribe, language and nation will gaze on their bodies and refuse them buried
• 10 The inhabitants of the earth will gloat over them and will celebrate by sending each other gifts, because these two prophets had tormented those who live on the earth
• 11 But after the three and half days a breath of life from God entered them, and they stood on their feet, and terror struck those who saw them.
• 12 Then they heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, "Come up here." And they went up to heaven in a cloud (like Christ Jesus), while their enemies looked. 
• 13 At that very hour there was a serve earthquake and a tenth of the city collapsed. Seven thousand people were killed in the earthquake and the survivors were terrified and gave glory to the God of heaven. 
• 14 The second woe has passed, the third woe is coming soon.

This is why on Chapter 10:6 there is a delay: The angel said there won't be any more delay

This is because on the first woe which is on the 5th trumpet Satan is prisoned in the abyss then on the 6th trumpet Satan is out of the abyss. The delay is there for other prophecies to come true e.g 1 Timothy 4

After this the 7th trumpet will sound with the last woe on Rev 12 to 13

The First Group Of The 144,000 And When Satan Was First Prisoned

On Revelation 6 the Lamb John 1:29 The next day John saw Jesus coming to him, and said, " There is the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world! Opened the seals. When he reached the 6th seal, on Chapter 7 we find 144,000 people of Israel sealed.

REVELATION 7 THE 144,000 SEALED: on the 6th seal

• 1 After this I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding back the for winds of the earth to prevent any wind from blowing on the land or on the sea or any tree. 

Why were the 4 angels prevening wind from blowing on the earth,to the land, sea and tree?

• 2 Then I saw another angel coming up from the east, having the seal of the living God. He called out in a loud voice to the four angles who had been given power to harm the land and the sea:

The 4 angles prevented any wind blowing to the land and sea to harm it. Why?

• 3 "Do not harm the land or then sea or the trees until we put a seal on the foreheads of the servants of our God."
• 4 Then I heard the number of those who were sealed: 144,000 from all the tribes of Israel. 
• 5 From the tribe of Judah 12,000 were sealed, from the tribe of Reuben 12,000, from the tribe of Gad 12,000, 
• 6 from the tribe of Asher 12,000, from the tribe of Naphtali 12,000, from the tribe of Manasseh 12,000, 
• 7 from the tribe of Simeon 12,000, from the tribe of Levi 12,000, from the tribe of Issachar 12,000, 
• 8 from the tribe of Zebulun 12,000, from the tribe of Joseph 12,000, from the tribe of Benjamin 12,000. 

THE LAMB OPENED THE 7th SEAL

Revelation 8

• 1 When he opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour. 
• 2 And I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and to them were given seven trumpets.

When the 3rd angel sounded his trumpet Satan fell. He is referred to as a great star

• 6 Then the seven angels who had the seven trumpets prepared to sound them. 
• 10 The third angel sounded his trumpet, and a great star, blazing like a torch, fell from the sky on a third of the rivers and on the springs of water-

When the 5th angel sounded his trumpet Satan was given the key to his prison the abyss for the 1st woe

Revelation 9

• 1 The fifth angel sounded his trumpet, and I saw a star that had fallen from the sky to the earth. The star was given the key to the shaft of the abyss.
• 2 When he opened the abyss, smoke rose from it like the smoke from a gigantic furnace. The sun and the sky were darkened by the smoke from the abyss. 
• 3 And out of the smoke locusts came down upon the earth and we're given power like that of scorpions of the earth. 
• 4 They were told not to harm the grass of the earth or any plant or tree, but only those people who did not have the seal of God on their foreheads. 

This is where the 144,000 sealed from Revelation 7 appear. They are not mentioned by number or by Israel but by the mention of "God's seal on their foreheads. "

• 5 They were not given power to kill them, but only to torture them ( those without God's seal) for five months. And the agony they suffered was like that of the sting of a scorpion when it strikes a man.
• 6 During those days men will seek death, but will not find it; they (without God's seal) will long to die, but death will elude them.
• 7 The locusts looked like horses prepared for battle. On their heads they wore something like crown of gold, and their faces resembled human faces. 
• 8 Their hair was like women's hair and their teeth were like lions' teeth.
• 9 They had breastplates like breastplates of iron, and the sound of their wings was like the thundering of many horses and chariots rushing into battle. 
• 10 They had tails and stings like scorpions, and in their tails they had power to torment people for five months
• 11 They had as king over them the Angel of the Abyss, whose name in Hebrew is Abaddon, and in Greek, Apollyon. 
• 12 The first woe is past; two other woes are yet to come.

The 1st group of the 144,000 ON Revelation 7 sealed with God's seal or name on their foreheads For the 1st woe on the 5th trumpet, when Satan was prisoned in the abyss Revelation 9. This 1st group of the 144,000 are different from the 2nd group on Revelation 14 who are sealed with the name of the Lamb and God and are on the 7th trumpet. .

In Tithing Is A Mistery

I've always wanted to give a tenth while I still had a job but somewhere somehow in heaven I was never allowed to tithe. Even now while waiting patiently on the Lord to provide I had a desire to tithe. But where I was to tithe was not ideal for i was questioning the Bishop on the inside! So I rather asked from within, if it would be okay if I were to give my tithe to his people who are poor! And this is what was revealed to me.

ABRAM (Abraham), MELCHIZEDEK AND TITHING
Genesis 14 TEV Bible

• 18 And Melchizedek, who was king of Salem and also priest of the Most High God, brought bread and wine to Abram

1 Melchizedek was king of Salem
2A priest of the Most High God
3He brought bread and wine to Abram.

Interesting our High Priest today is our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ in the order of Melchizedek. Bread is his body and wine his blood.

Hebrews 6:20 On our behalf Jesus has gone before us, and has become a high priest for ever in the priestly order of Melchizedek.

Matthew 26

• 26 While they were eating, Jesus took a piece of bread, gave a prayer of thanks, broke it, and gave it to his disciples. " Take and eat it, " He said, "this is my body."
• 27 Then he took a cup, gave thanks to God, and gave it to them. "Drink it, all of you," he said ,
• 28 "this is my blood, which seals God's covenant, my blood poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.
• 29 I tell you, I will never again drink this wine until the day I drink the new wine with you in my Father's Kingdom. "
• 
  

Genesis 14

• 19 blessed him, and said, "May the Most High God, who made heaven and earth bless Abram!
• 20 May the Most High God, who gave you victory over your enemies, be praised. And Abram gave Melchizedek a tenth of all the loot he had recovered. 

1 When Melchizedek blessed Abram he revealed that the Most High God blessed Abram by giving him victory over his enemies, and then Abram took with him a loot of all he had recoverd over his victory.
2 This priest Melchizedek blessed Abram and asked the Most High God to bless Abram, again!
3 Abram took a tenth of all the loot he had recoverd from his victory that the Most High God blessed him with over his enemies and gave it to Melchizedek the priest of the Most High God.
4 So Abram was rich on his loot he had recovered and Melchizedek the priest of the Most High God collected the tenth from Abram.

OUR HIGH PRIEST IS NOT HERE TO COLLECT A TITHE
Here is the thing our high priest our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ is in heaven sitting on the right hand of the living God.

Hebrews 8:1 The whole point of what we are saying is that we have such a High Priest, who sits at the right of the throne of the Divine Majesty in heaven.

Our high priest is not here on earth and is not collecting any tithe of someone who is rich. He won't come back until all prophecies come true. The 70 weeks of restoration of Jerusalem which will be completed after the first raising of the dead. Find out more ☞ The Famous 70 Weeks of Daniel 9 prophecy.

The First raising will take place when the first Thousand years of Satan bound in chains in the abyss are over and the two beast and 666 (which is a number to not be scared of since the devil stole it) will show its true colours. Find out more ☞ The Thousand Years. After that he still won't be here until the second thousand years are over and Satan will be set free a last time then Jesus will come like a thief.

WAIT AND SEE AFTER THE FIRST RAISING OF THE DEAD
We gona have to wait and see if tithing will take place again after the first raising of the dead because of what the bible says about reigning with Christ Jesus as his priest

Revelation 20

• 4 Then I saw thrones, and those who sat on them were given the power to judge. I also saw the souls of those who had been executed because they had proclaimed the truth that Jesus revealed and the word of God. They had not worshipped the beast or its image, nor had they received the mark of the beast on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life and ruled as kings with Christ for a thousand years. 
• 5 (The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were over.) This is the first raising of the dead. 
• 6 Happy and greatly blessed are those who are included in this first raising of the dead. The second death has no power over them; they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and they will rule with him for a thousand years. 

TITHING WAS FOR THE RICH EVEN IN THE LAW.
Leviticus 27

• 30 One-tenth of all the produce of the land, whether grain or fruit, belongs to the LORD
• 31 If a man wishes to buy any of it back, he must pay the standard price plus an additional twenty percent
• 32 One out of every ten domestic animals belongs to the LORD. When the animals are counted, every tenth one belongs to the LORD. 
• 34 These are the commands that the LORD gave Moses on Mount Sinai for the people of Israel. 

HEBREW WORD FOR TITHE
The Hebrew word for tithe is maaserמַעֲשֵׂר meaning tenth, maaser comes from the word aser עֲשֵׂר meaning rich.

Why tithe then when the High Priest our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ is in heaven and is not collecting the tithe? Why should those who are not rich but work to receive payment should tithe? No wonder he never allowed me to tithe! He now just answered me why because I've always been confused why not! This is why!

Speaking of people who work to receive money

Mark 12

• 41 As Jesus sat near the temple treasury, he watched the people as they dropped in a lot of money

We learn from Genesis 14:20 and Leviticus 27:30-32 that it's those who are rich blessed by God who give tithe and the Hebrew word maaser agrees with the scripture. We should note the following

1 Jesus was not yet glorified on the cross
2 People still lived by what the Law of Moses required
3 People were living by Malachi 3:10 Bring the full amount of your tithes to the Temple, so that there would be food there. Put me to the test and you will see that I will open the windows of heaven and pour out on you in abundance all kinds of good things.
4 These men were rich and tithing their money. This means they bought back their produce and paid the standard price and added twenty percent on top as the Law requires, this money was a 12% tithe.

Mark 12:42 then a poor widow came along and dropped in two little copper coins, worth a penny.

Note again
1 A poor widow, not rich so she could not tithe, But
2 She drooped two copper coins worth a penny. This is not a tithe according to the Law of Moses nor according to Genesis 14:20! So what did she do then?! She GAVE to the treasury Temple 2 copper coins, not tithe but GAVE.

Mark 12

• 43 He called his disciples together and said to them, "I tell you that this poor widow put more offering box than others.
• 44 For others put in what they had to spare of their riches, but she, poor as she is, put in all she had- She gave all she had to live on." 

Jesus said she GAVE by offering and that she putted more offering to the box. Why is that?

Let me put it simple. Those men were first blessed by Father God with wealth, so they were putting what Father God had already blessed them with, in this case 12 percent for it was money. But she, not blessed but poor and a widow gave out of all she had to live on. That's why she putted more that all those men.

JESUS SUPPORTED GIVING
Jesus and his disciples could have not tithe for Jesus lived a poor life and his disciples left everything and filled him. But they supported giving like the poor widow.

John 13:29 Since Judas was in charge of their money bag, some of the disciples thought that Jesus had told him to go and but what they need for the festival, or give something to the poor.

Luke11:41 But give what is in your cup and plate to the poor, and everything will be ritually clean for you.

This giving was carried through out

Romans 15:26 For the churches in Macedonia and Achaia have freely decided to give an offering to help the poor among God's people in Jerusalem.

Since we already here let's look at Pastors, Bishops, preachers, leaders and teachers

Matthew 10

• 7 Go and preach, 'The Kingdom of heaven is near!'
• 8 Heal the sick, bring back the dead to life, heal those who suffer from dread skin-diseases, and drive out demons. You have received without paying, so give without being paid.
• 9 Do not carry any gold, silver, or copper money in your pockets
• 10 do not carry beggar's bag for the journey or an extra shirt or shoes or a stick. Workers should be given what they need.

What Did Jesus Mean When He Said "I am Thirsty" ?

WHAT DID JESUS MEAN WHEN HE SAID "I AM THIRSTY"
NIV Bible
John 19

• 28 Later knowing that all was now completed, and so that the scripture would be fulfilled, Jesus said, "I am thirsty."
• 29 A jar of wine vinegar was there, so they soaked a sponge in it, put the sponge on a stalk of the hyssop plant, and lifted it to Jesus' lips.
• 30 When he had received the drink, Jesus said, "It is finished"

This all goes back to the 10 Commandments on Mount Sinai

TEV Bible
Exodus 19:20 The LORD came down on the top of Mount Sinai and called Moses to the top of the mountain. Moses went up

Exodus 20

• 1 God spoke, and these were his words
• 2 "I am the LORD your God who brought you out of Egypt, where you were slaves
• 5 Do not bow down to any idol or worship it, because I am the LORD your God and I tolerate no rivals. I bring punishment on those who hate me and on their descendents down to the 3rd and 4th generation

This is a generational curse. Children were to suffer the punishment of their parent's sins and their forefather's sins.

THE PROVERB IN THE LAND OF ISRAEL
Ezekiel 18

• 1 The LORD spoke to me 
• 2 and said, "What is this proverb people keep repeating in the land of Israel? 'The parents ate the sour grapes, But the children got the sour taste.'
• 3 "As surely as I am the living God," says the Sovereign LORD, "You will not repeat this proverb In Israel any more.
• 4 The life of every person belongs to me, the life of the parent as well as that of the child. The person who sins is the one who will die.

Every life belongs to the LORD
Revelation 13:8 All people living on earth will worship it, except those whose names were written before the creation of the world in the book of the living which belongs to the Lamb that was killed.

John 1:29 The next day John saw Jesus coming to him, and said, "There is the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!

Colossians 1:16 God created the whole universe through him and for him.

Ezekiel 18

• 19 "But you ask: 'Why shouldn't the son suffer because of his father's sins?'

This tells me the parents wanted to sin and get away with it. They didn't care about their children and didn't love them. To me they were selfish with self .

Ephesians 2

• 1 In the past you were spiritually dead because of your disobedience and sins. 
• 2 At that time you followed the world's evil way; you obeyed the ruler of the spiritual powers in space, the spirit who disobey God. 
• 3 Actually all of us were like them and lived according to our natural desires, doing whatever suited the wishes of our own bodies and minds. 

Ezekiel 18

• 19 The answer is that the son did what was right and good. He kept my laws and followed them carefully, and so he will certainly live.
• 20 It is the one who sins who will die. A son is not to suffer because of his father's sins, nor a father because of his son. A good person will be rewarded for doing good, and an evil person will suffer for the evil he does. 
• 30 "Now I, the Sovereign LORD, am telling you Israelites that I will judge each of you by what you have done. 

This means there will no longer be a generational curse.

THE REMOVAL OF THE GENERATIONAL CURSE ON THE NEW COVENANT
Jeremiah 31

• 29 When that time comes, people will no longer say 'The parents ate the sour grapes, But the children got the sour taste. 
• 30 Instead, all those who eat sour grapes will have their own teeth set on edge, and they will all die because of their own sin."
• 31 The LORD says, " The time is coming when I will make a new covenant with the people of Israel and with the people of Judah.
• 32 It will not be like the old covenant that I made with their ancestors when I took them by the hand and led them out of Egypt. Although I was like a husband to them, they did not keep that covenant. 
• 33 The new covenant that I will make with the people of Israel will be this : I will put my law within them and write it on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be my people. 
• 34 None of them will have to teach his fellow-citizen to know the LORD, because all will know me, from the least to the greatest. I will forgive their sins and I will no longer remember their wrongs. I, the LORD, have spoken. "

The new covenant had the forgiveness of sins and the generational curse taken out of the 3rd law which is on

Exodus 20:5 Do not bow down to any idol or worship it, because I am the LORD your God and I tolerate no rivals. I bring punishment on those who hate me

No more punishment on their descendents down to the 3rd and 4th generation. Now the person who sin will die

Ezekiel 18:4 The person who sins is the one who will die.

THE FULFILMENT ON THE CROSS
When Jesus said "I am thirsty. " John 19:28 He thirsted for what he got, wine vinegar John 19:29 For he knew everything had been completed.

Wine is made of grape. Vinegar has a sour taste. When he received the drink the generational curse was removed from the 3rd law of the 10 commandments. No more children to suffer for their parents or and forefathers sins. And Jesus said "It is finished. " John 19:30
