Hello everyone and greetings. Yes I've been away for sometime (I do that from time to time to keep my spirit and vision sharp. So I'm stopping by to say "hey yall" and maybe kindle some fire.
That's if my absent hasn't restricted me for not being accountable. So I'll just wait for protocol or whomever will allow me to speak to yall.

There was once a very rich man who loved the Lord. His riches during his time was unequal to. He was very liberal with his riches and all those who associated with him had no lack. Daily he searched the scriptures and every page reflect the face of God in his heart. This man loved the Lord and the word.
One day there came a man. A teacher of the word and a proclaimer of the truth. A man of vision and full of wisdom. This man's heart was that of shepherd who tends his flock with diligence and whose senses were sharp as a razor. When this man spoke oh how theirs burned within as they salivated for the fresh bread. As this man spoke the people could hear the voice of God in his words. Without a doubt all including the rich man knew that this man was sent by the Almighty.
One day finally the preacher and the rich man met. Their union was that of a divine connection and Christ was in the midst of them. Wisdom said that a place of gathering should be erected so that all may come in one place to worship and fellowship in the breaking of bread. So the rich man in his endless resources built a church so that the teacher could teach. All that was a necessity for teacher the rich man, with joy and gladness, he provided.
My question is where does that tithe go and who receives it?
Don't laugh I have to start somewhere after being away for so long. But in the spirit of our Lord I have much to share

Without a doubt, I know you're going somewhere... (those sunglasses are in anticipation of the light, lol!) But I don't (yet) see/understand what you are referring to as "that tithe" in the scenario you gave.

I'm sorry my bad. But in order of the tradition of tithing when the people gather, where does THE tithe by the hands of the people go and to whom if the building and the minister is supplied by another source.

No worries...I just wanted to be sure I understood the question before responding. Honestly, before, and more than, I would be concerned with where "the tithe" was going to end up, I'd be asking why they're still "tithing" in the first place. Especially in the face of such a perfect example, blessing and higher position of "Freely you have received, freely give."

He hath redeemed for us everything that was lost through the fall of the first Adam. All other preisthoods were mere shadows of the everlasting priesthood which is headed by the Lion of the Tribe of Judah! Hallelujah!!!!
