Book Description

"Will a mere mortal rob God? ... Yet you rob Me in tithes and offerings." Malachi 3:8 In one testimony Jesus told Ricardo Cid the following: And then the Lord told me to come back and tell you that there are streets of gold in Heaven. "All this belongs to My people," the Lord said, "but, in My church there are many thieves who steal My tithes and offerings! Tell My people that no thief will enter My Kingdom in Heaven!" ============================== SUMMARY OF CHAPTER 8 All Thieves & Robbers Go To Hell (According to the Bible) The Term WICKED: To understand what the term WICKED means let us look at 5 scriptures (there are hundreds more but these should suffice): "Now the men of Sodom were WICKED and were sinning greatly against the LORD." Genesis 13:13 "The WICKED will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous." Psalm 1:5 "You are not a God who takes pleasure in evil; with you the WICKED cannot dwell." Psalm 5:4 "Salvation is far from the WICKED" Psalm 119:155 As you can see, in the Bible, the term WICKED always refers to those who are not saved and who go to Hell if they die without repenting. Who Gets Condemned To Hell: 8 But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts [witchcraft], the idolaters and all liars [false teachers] -- their place will be in the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death." Rev 21:5-8 (NIV) Similarly, in 1 Cor 6:9-10 Paul states: "Do you not know that the WICKED will NOT INHERIT the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: NEITHER the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexuals nor THIEVES nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will INHERIT the kingdom of God." 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 From this verse alone we clearly see that: THIEVES WILL NOT INHERIT THE KINGDOM OF GOD ! Make no mistake about it, THIEVES are classified with the WICKED and the WICKED are NOT going to Heaven. Notice that the passages Rev 21:5-8 and 1 Cor 6:9-10 are parallel scriptures. Both are referring those who will not go to Heaven. As hard as it is for some to believe, GOD WILL SEND THE THIEF TO HELL. According to the Bible the following people are classified as THIEVES: 1. Thieves - Stealing from another person. (1 Cor. 6:9-10) 2. Swindler - Those who lie and cheat people out of their money or goods. (1 Cor. 6:9-10) 2. Robbing Tithes - Those who Rob God of His Tithe. (Malachi 3:8) Notice that, as well as thieves and swindlers who steal from people, God will also condemn those who rob Him of His tithe. Although our present day church culture, may overlook or trivialize this sin, God does not and will not approve of this sin. ("Will a mere mortal rob God? Yet you rob Me. "But you ask, 'How are we robbing you?' "In tithes and offerings." Malachi 3:8) Because not paying the tithe is classified as robbery by God in Malachi 3:8, this sin will send you to Hell as God promises us in 1 Cor. 6:9-10. If this describes you, you must do 2 things: 1. Confess your sin to Jesus and ask Him to forgive you. 2. Repent of your sin by immediately setting aside 10% of your total income and giving it to the ministry where you go to church and receive spiritual sustenance. I want there to be no doubt about the decision and the consequence you are facing. I counsel you to believe God and repent -- or face eternal torment in Hell when you die. Believe God -- He does not lie. ALL THIEVES GO TO HELL ! God is very clear about this. Believe God's Word as written. Don't risk eternity in Hell just to avoid paying God His tithe. We are not talking about loss of rewards here. We are talking about eternal damnation in Hell.
