Tithing Declaration




​

    ​And Jesus went into the temple of God,
    and cast out all them that sold
    and bought in the temple,
    and overthrew the tables
    of the moneychangers,
    and said unto them,
    My house shall be called
    the house of prayer;
    but ye have made it
    a den of thieves.

       ― Matthew 21:12-13


Whomsoever
loves to make
a lie that will
     not die:
 
     There’s nothing
     in this world
     he says
     your money
     cannot buy.
 
 
But Whosoever
my words believe
they shall be born
     anew:
 
     Whose money
     can buy nothing
     here where I have
     ransomed you.
