Welcome to the Jesus Image Podcast. Hey everyone, we miss you. We love you. Greetings. Um we are enjoying our family vacation right now. If you're watching this, I'm actually recording this from the church property. It is pre-recorded, but I love you, and it's coming from holy ground. And may the Lord's presence come upon you all. Thank you. This is our fourth year in a row taking time to be together as a family. It's such a blessing for our marriage and for our children. And to be honest with you, just to be better pastors all the way around. So we return with fresh vision and strength. The team gets really nervous when I'm gone because I get so many ideas. They're like, he has too much time on his hands. They usually right around the three-week mark when I'm gone or two-week mark, they know that they're about to get bombarded with fresh vision for the future. So it's really important. Thank you for understanding. Let's pray. Let's ask the Holy Spirit to speak to us as we continue on our journey into holy generosity. Wonderful Lord, we give you glory and honor and we thank you for your wonderful presence that is our food and our life. Speak to us. Open our eyes. Reveal your nature to us, precious Jesus. And I pray in Jesus' name that you would speak to us all and teach us, Lord, to hold everything loosely, including the resources you have given us for your glory and name's sake. Amen. Amen. Well, just a quick review. I want to say I'm I'm so proud of our church, and every area of the Christian life requires improvement. All of us have certain aspects in each area of the Christian life where we're called higher, we're called to a greater surrender. And certainly generosity is one of those areas that are very holy. And as I said in the past, you know, a lot of pastors get nervous to talk about this. And I understand, I understand where they would, because it's been so mishandled. Like there's been excess, I think, in both directions. One is there's been excess in certain fundraising techniques, which I talked about before. There's been excess in just talking about money too much, even if it's truthful. Like if you talk about money more than you talk about the cross, that's that's a problem. Um the scriptures that are used or mishandled or that have been in the past, no excuse for that. And gosh, it's it's worthy of repentance. I don't want to be judgmental, but certainly there needs to be a repentance in that area. At the same time, it's possible to swing to the other side of the spectrum, and I think I think we have. I think we have as a generation. We've swung in the name of not wanting it to be about money to not giving. Therefore, we make our life about money. Like if I'm not giving because I don't want to be all about money, well, maybe I'm erecting an idol that's money. And I think what's most important is that you don't listen to what people say as your primary authority. You want to listen to what the scriptures say, what the Lord Himself has spoken. And secondarily, what has the church believed? What has the church been teaching for 2,000 years and from multiple denominations, I should say, from multiple streams, and in multiple generations. When we put those two together, as Christians, we consider that truth. And so uh before I even get into the depths of what the scriptures say, we need to ask ourselves this question: what weight do the scriptures carry? And again, I think I was just so shocked, and not think, I know. Here I am, I can almost see the building that we're all going to be worshiping in this year. And I was shocked to see that the overwhelming majority of the finances that have come in for the building are coming through people who will who have never and most likely will never, and we want people to come visit, but most likely will never walk into those doors. And that as a pastor is foreign to me. It's foreign, and again, I know you've heard this a few times, but I want you to hear my heart. It's foreign to me to expect a place called the church, a team, uh, an organization, a group of people to minister to me and my family and me not give in return. I would submit to you that that is not the biblical narrative. The biblical narrative is not to receive and never give. And so before I get into the validity of the tithe, whether or not the tithe is law, whether or not it's it's applicable today, I just want to talk about just the overall overarching methods by which we come to our decisions as Christians. So all of us receive our salvific viewpoint or our view of salvation based on Holy Scripture, right? And what the church has been teaching. Salvation comes through Jesus and Jesus alone, through his death, burial, and resurrection. He's fully God and fully man. And that in and of itself requires our repentance. And that repentance issues me into a new life that all comes by grace, and I then become his temple, and I should be quickened and empowered to live a life of good works. And that glorifies the Lord, and that is called Christian living. Everything I just gave you comes through the scriptures and has been preached for 2,000 years. Actually, prior to that, it's been preached even in the Old Testament. So, how do we come to our views on family? The same way. Through the scriptures, through what the church has been preaching, through his saints. In other words, the saints of the church show us what a life of following scripture looks like. How do we view uh raising children? Where do we get our standard, right? What's our view of creation? What's our view of the presence and power of the Spirit? What's our view of discipleship? All of us are looking to the scriptures. My question is: should we be doing the same as it pertains to our finances? If we're not, what standard are we using to determine our financial stewardship and behavior? I think we need to ask that question first. So, what is our supreme authority? And the Bible teaches, and but and what I would submit to you is that none of this is just uh left to us. So it can't just be up for grabs for us. The Bible is the is the authority of God, it's his word, it's his heart revealed in Holy Scripture. My question would be: how many areas should the scriptures determine, lead, and guide me in? Okay, so all of us, I would imagine, if we call ourselves followers of Jesus, would say that the scriptures carry more authority than me, the individual, okay, or a group of people who may contradict them. Okay, so the scriptures are meant to be food to us. So let's let it be food. And let's just think of what Jesus said. Okay. Number one, Jesus said, My words are spirit and they are life in John's gospel. My words are spirit and they are life. So the word of God is spirit and life. The scripture also says, and these references are on your screen, the scripture also says that God honors his word above his own name. So if you believe that the scriptures are the word of God, how much does God honor Holy Scripture? Well, the Scripture say above his own name. So if the scriptures, according to Jesus, are spirit and life, they should be deeply valued. They should guide us, they should be ingested, they should be meditated upon, they should be received, they should mold us. We should not push back against them. I don't mean in hunger and desire to know more. I'm just talking about saying these I like, these I don't. And I just have to be honest, based on the giving activity, certainly in the building, that is that's what's happened. And so what I want to present to you, and by the way, God has blessed us. But I'll just say this my children and grandchildren, my children are going to be in that children's church, my grandchildren will be in that children's church. And my children are ministering to the Lord and been deeply changed and marked and in this school. If the environment of Jesus' image has marked them, me personally, I can't receive on that level and not give something natural back to the Lord. Certainly. I just it's not even a feeling. I'm going to show you how that has been the scriptural and uh church ethos for thousands of years. Okay. So we know that the scriptures, God honors above his own name. We know that the scriptures are forever settled in heaven. Your word, O Lord, is forever settled in heaven. That passage is up on the screen for you as well. Just some review. 2,000 plus total passages relate to money and possessions throughout scripture. 2,000. That's saying a lot. That means this is really on God's mind. This isn't about God needing our money. God doesn't need our money. But God knows that the money, money is connected to the heart. In a sense, when we give, we are liberated from the love of money, and I'm going to get into that in a moment. But that's why he talks about it so much. Okay. 11 of 39 parables directly concern money or possessions. So that's one in four. 25% of the parables that Jesus preached, words in red, are directly connected to and addressing money and possessions and how they should be dealt with. One in ten verses in the Gospels. So Matthew through John, one in ten verses deal with money. One in ten. And if it's on his mind, we should care as his followers. The Bible speaks more about money than any other single moral subject. And it goes as far to say that the love of money is the root of all evil. So if I know that I'm supposed to be giving consistently, as often as money comes in, a portion should go to the Lord. And I'm going to show you this principle in a minute. If I know that's true and I won't do it, could the love of money be setting in in my life? We have to ask these questions. No, I don't love it, I just hold on to it. Well, scripture connects love to releasing something, to giving something away. For God so loved that He gave. So love and the release, love and giving are connected. All right. So let's get into some scripture just for a moment. I don't want to start in the Old Testament right away, but I'd like my boy Cam here, aka Camelot. Pretty cool name, huh? Camelot. I want you to read Matthew 6. Would you turn there, Cam? Cam's gonna help my voice here. We're gonna take it real slow as a family. And my heart is that we would be the most generous church in the world. That would be my heart. And we're gonna discover together how we would even measure that. How the Lord would measure that. Cam, I want you to read Matthew 6, verses 19 through 21.

SPEAKER_00 13:10

Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

SPEAKER_01 13:30

Well, that's powerful. So I wanted to start more in the ancient church way, where we start with the person of the Lord Jesus. Usually they would start in the epistles and then hit the gospels and then show you the prophetic fulfillments. But I wanted to start here in the Sermon on the Mount for a reason. All of us would say, and by the way, prior to these instructions, we were exposed to the Lord's Prayer in Matthew 6. So we've got to see the overall context here. You have the king of glory in a body scaling a mountain called the Mount of Beatitudes, teaching the constitution of the kingdom, the Magna Carta of the faith. This is the greatest sermon ever preached. All of us would agree with that. You have the King of Glory, the greater lawgiver than Moses, sitting on a mountain with thousands of people watching. He issues forth the Beatitudes in Matthew 5, continues to teach through Matthew 6 and 7. So three chapters of glorious teaching that is the absolute epicenter and boiler room of Christian living. When we get into Matthew 6, he speaks of, you know, verses 1 through 4, for instance, speak of doing good for God's attention alone. And then all of a sudden he begins to teach us how to pray in Matthew 6, 5. So he talks about the heart when you pray. Don't be like a hypocrite. When you pray, pray secretly. Matthew 6, verse 6. He says, go into your room, close the door, pray to your father who's in secret. So this is very holy talk. Very beautiful, holy, central speech and teaching that is infused with the power of God. He's instructing them to pray. And then he gets to verse 9 in Matthew 6 and teaches us the Lord's Prayer. Then in verse 16, he gets to fasting. Okay, so he's laying down lifestyle here. Then he tells us in verse 19, don't lay up for yourselves treasures on earth. So he inserts giving. This is talking about money. He inserts giving, dead smack in the middle of his constitution, called the Sermon on the Mount. So it's right dead smack in the middle of possibly the most important sermon he ever preached. I think we could say that. Obviously, the most important act is the cross, burial, and resurrection. But here he's teaching the glorious fulfillment that the king would come and issue forth the new kingdom. And here it is, right dead smack in the middle. So how important is this? You tell me. Think of the moment, think of who's teaching it, think of the context. Verse 19, would you read that again, Cam?

SPEAKER_00 16:24

Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

SPEAKER_01 16:45

So the Lord Jesus, the Bible says it, and we're gonna get into this later, that He gives us the power to gain wealth. It doesn't mean we should be greedy. What the church has done in the past is crazy. Cars promised all this stuff. Now God can give you a car, of course. God has told, I mean, God spoken to Jess and I to give certain things away. I'm not gonna say what, but they were costly. God has always blessed us. And that's in the scripture too. Of course he wants to bless us. But what is a blessing? And then unto what? What is it for? So here the scripture clearly teaches in verse 9 that since God gives me wealth, treasure, I have the capability of determining where it goes once it gets to me. And so Jesus says in verse 19, don't lay it up for you. Don't lay up for yourselves treasures on earth. In other words, don't lay up your money and expose it to the earth's decay. He says, moth and rust destroy it. That happens all the time. In other words, if I put my money primarily toward the world, toward my own life, my money is now in jeopardy. It's actually exposed because theft is ahead. Jesus is actually saying that our finances, when we lay them up for ourselves, are exposed to thievery. They are vulnerable. Listen to what he says. But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven. So redirect your giving into what is heavenly. Where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves cannot break in and steal. So heavenly giving, when I give toward the kingdom, it's protected. When I live for the world, my treasures are exposed. They're vulnerable. But in verse 21 is where I wanted to get to. For where your treasure is, present tense, there your heart will be also. So if I need to find a man's heart, I just need to trace his treasure. I want to speak directly to the young people. It is shocking. I've I talked to pastors' friends. They'll have thousands of young people come into a room who all have the latest iPhone typically when it comes out, or some of them have the next pair of kicks, or the next cool hoodie, or you're in a cafe five days a week. I know that stuff's not for free because I pay for it for my kids and Jess. Jess will risk her life to get to the next cafe that she read about on some vlog where you need to wear like a Kevlar vest just to get into the cafe. Man, they're crazy. How much does a latte, Kim?

SPEAKER_00 19:41

Six dollars.

SPEAKER_01 19:42

Six bucks. Okay. Okay, so we have money for more than we think. Huh? It's all the foodie vlogs, everything we trace, the places we go. You should enjoy life. There's nothing wrong with that. But I'm shocked by, compared to my generation, how uh this younger generation who fills rooms, thank God, who worships, thanks, thanks, thank the Lord. It shocks me how they don't see their giving as part of that worship. And I'm grateful that when I came into the kingdom, when we served in the Orthodox Church, it was an immigrant community that I came from that put their resources toward the building of our church in Tarpon Springs, Florida, St. Nicholas Cathedral. And the church was dead smack in the middle of our community. So this was in our heart before we even came into Pastor Benny's meetings. But as a 12-year-old boy, I began partnering. And I wanted God to know because it was just so normal to come from our culture where you would bring your priest, my mom would like, my grandmother would like cook for the priest, or you'd have him in your home. One of the ways we showed the Lord that we loved him was by taking that which is material and moving it away from us toward the kingdom. And so Jesus says here in verse 21, where your treasure is right now, if you want to know where your heart is, look at your giving. I mean, that's what the Lord said. So Billy Graham actually said that if he wants to know someone or know much about them, he would just look at their calendar and their checkbook. How do we spend our time and how do we give? And there is a way to give. So it's important we talk about how we give and whether or not the amount are giving, the amount we are giving is biblical. Okay, so I wanted to start with Jesus' words there. Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. I've noticed in my life when fire is lacking, I will sacrificially give, and all of a sudden I become really interested in what I'm giving it. You know. Um, if you've never invested before, you you know, like in a company, like you could care less who the new CEO is of some company until you start investing. Then all of a sudden you're like, you know everything about him, where he went to school, how trained he is, what decisions are making in the boardroom. In other words, investing actually affects interest. And I don't mean financial interest. When I invest into something with more than just singing, with the work of my hands, with the labor, the fruit of my hands, all of a sudden sudden I become more fiery, more interested, and more committed. And so Jesus is connecting that. Heart and treasure. Heart and treasure. So if you're taking notes, I want you to write that down. My heart will forever be connected to my treasure, and my treasure will reveal the positioning of my heart. Now, some would say, well, we're in the New Testament now. And what you're talking about is law. No, giving is not law. Giving predates the law. And we're going to discuss that in further detail as well. But so if you're claiming grace, which is the supernatural activity of the spirit, the supernatural energizing power of the spirit, if you were to analyze the effect of the grace of the spirit, I'm not talking about unmerited favor, I'm talking about the energies of God, the grace of the spirit. If you were to analyze any other area of Christian living and how they pertain to the grace of the Spirit, does any other area of Christian living produce or require less than law? So, in other words, is there less fruitfulness in the New Testament than under law? Is there a less consistent prayer life promised in the New Testament than under law? Is forgiveness of sin and its effect on our life, is it more available and available in a greater way under the New Covenant or less? Is there less power promised in the New Covenant for the believer than under the law or more? You tell me. So in the New Testament, should I be called to less holiness than the law or more? What's available in this new covenant that is sealed by the Spirit, that is energized by the Spirit? All of us would say that we are called higher, called to greater things. Jesus even said, greater things shall you do. So the full gamut of New Testament Christian living is that under the new covenant, I'm called higher and invited into more. This is very true, right? Now let's talk about the meticulous nature of God under the New Testament. Remember, the cross did not change the Lord. The cross is meant to change us. The cross never changed God. The cross is meant to change the church and form us into the image of God, into the image of the Son. So Jesus comes along and says, Ah, when you lust after a woman, you've committed adultery with her. So this thought that he doesn't notice greed under the New Testament isn't biblical. God notices everything and actually under the New Testament calls us higher. So Jesus says, lust is now adultery. What's the point? The point is that God is very meticulous about our giving, number one, but offers us the grace necessary to energize our giving so that it accomplishes his plans on earth and is a greater blessing for us and our families so that we can give more away and glorify his name. I am never gonna give like, I don't want to ever want to lose my reward. But at the beginning of the year, Jess and I committed to an amount for the building that was a stretch. It wasn't a tithe, it was beyond the tithe. Well beyond the tithe. The tithe happens and I don't even, it just comes out of my check. And I I do that and I would invite you into that because I don't trust, I don't want to get in the way. I want it to come out, and I it's the Lord's. I like, and again, I'm not saying you have to do it that way, but it is it's become a great blessing for Jess and I. I said, Jess, I want to make a commitment towards the building that transcends the tithe because that's an offering. The tithe is the tithe. So I by God's grace, we were able to fulfill it. And we just finished the last offering two weeks or a week ago, ten days ago, maybe. I was so excited, and it was sacrificial. Like it took a lot of work. I was so excited when we completed it that I said, babe, we got to do another one. And so the next day, the next day, we did. Now, will God bless us? I'm sure he will. Of course he will. His word promises it. I can't take that away. As uncomfortable as that makes people. I can't remove that. This does not make me a prosperity preacher. This makes me a biblical man. This this actually just means I want to fear the Lord. I have to look at the entirety of the text and preach it. It's all about motive and all about heart. Okay? You don't see me selling you like a vial of water from the Holy Land or something wild, okay? No, this is just the truth. Or a nightlight or whatever. This is just the truth. Okay. But I was so energized when we gave, I said, whoa, that's the grace that's available and a faith that's available. And I want you to know that I love you. My treasure is connected to my heart. And I want, Lord, I want you to know that you have my heart. And you said, treasure is connected to the heart. And from the very beginning, it has been so. From the very, very beginning. God gives Adam, I talked about this prior, but I want you to hear it again, the entire world. He gives Adam every tree to eat from. But he says, This one, don't touch it. This one right here, no, you don't touch that one. This is the way God has always been. What did he say of his firstborn Israel? She's mine. Don't touch her. That's or actually he calls him his firstborn son. He is mine. So we see the principle of first fruits, where the Lord says, look, look, look. He tells Egypt, you can have all this, but man, you're mistreating, you're restreat, you're mistreating my firstborn. The scripture says the tithe is mine, it is holy unto the Lord. So one of the ways by which God tests our love is to see if we're going to touch what is his. What is his. So again, again, church, I want to invite us through the lens of love and truth. If we are going to plant campuses in Southern California, in New York, in Jerusalem, and in other cities around the world, it is going to require sacrifice. But we are giving to a God who has a limitless supply. It's what we do. And I would never call our local church into something that just and I are not living joyfully. Yes, does it require faith? Yes. Does it require saving? Yes. Does it require work? Absolutely. But I want to read. This touched me this morning. I mean, it put the fear of God in me. Because I made a vow to the building. I'm just being honest. It really did. It put the fear of God in me. Deuteronomy 23, 21. When you make a vow to the Lord your God, and the context here, by the way, is financial stewardship. It's giving of our money and resources. Deuteronomy 23, 21. Actually, you read it. You read it, Cam.

SPEAKER_00 31:20

Twenty-three?

SPEAKER_01 31:21

Yeah, twenty-one. Verse twenty verse twenty-one, chapter twenty-three.

SPEAKER_00 31:28

When you make a vow to the Lord your God, you shall not delay to pay it, for the Lord your God will surely require it of you, and it will be sin to you. Keep going. But if you abstain from vowing, it shall not be sin to you. That which has gone from your lips you shall keep and perform. For you voluntarily vowed to the Lord your God what you have promised with your mouth.

SPEAKER_01 31:54

Wow. That's powerful.

unknown 31:58

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 31:59

That's wild, right? So here the scripture is saying, look, if you say it, the moment Jesse and I made a vow to the building, the scriptures are clear here. You need to do it. And here, look, it's what the Lord said, not what I said. Verse 21. If you say it and don't do it, it's sin. Now I'm not saying like if you make the vow, if you have the capability of fulfilling it, of course, we should do that. But if you if you if you if you need to take it slower, God understands all these things. But if we're going to vow to something, this is just basic biblical teaching, God is expecting us to fulfill it. And so I remember this morning, whoa, I made a vow just a week ago. This isn't a joke. I need to do something to get it moving. And the Lord said, it's better that you don't even make the vow than to make it and not do it. And after talking to our team, to be honest, there's been such incredible generosity. And I want to thank everyone. But I just want to lovingly remind us, as your pastor, if you made a vow, get it moving. Don't sleep on it. God is actually watching. And it's it's a holy, holy thing. I can't think of many moments. I mean, obviously there's been some, but the feeling in a holy way, not in some weird gimmickry way, gimmicky way. The feeling of bringing the Lord what is costly, that took hours to produce. That I I took the power he gave me to make a living, and I come and I offer it back to the Lord. The feeling inside is so glorious, so wonderful. Now, if you're a member of Jesus' image, you you should be tithing. The tithe precedes the law. The word tithe is first tenth. It's the first tenth. So you take whatever God brings in. I'm just trying to make this as you know basic and fundamental as possible. You when God blesses you, you take the first tenth and bring it to the Lord. We see this with Abraham and Melchizedek. I'm going to get into that later. I've touched on it in the past, but this is just a review. Something we need to get better at, and I want us to invite, I want to invite all of us into this. We need to be more disciplined tithers. Tithing is not about feeling, it's actually a fixed amount. You know, it's like saying, well, I don't feel like it's 90 degrees out. It is, whether you feel like it or not, it's actually happening. So a tithe is a tenth, that is a disciplined means of giving. And if you total up the tithe, as I mentioned in the past, but by the time you get through all the tithes and the festivals, the ancient Jews were giving about 30% of their income to the Lord's church. It's incredible. And God still took great care of them when they obeyed the Lord and lived holy lives. Okay. So you take that tenth, that's the tithe. We see this with Abraham and Melchizedek. We also see it in Jacob. He vows to the Lord that if he comes back safely, remember, that he will give the Lord a tenth of all he had. That's prior to the law. Now, remember when we say the law, we're talking about the Sinai law. Now, how would Jacob have known to promise that to the Lord? We're going to learn something about God here, and then I'm going to pray and then pray a blessing over you. How would Jacob have known to even say that to the Lord? He would have learned from his fathers. Faith would have touched him. The same way Abel knew to offer blood. How would he have learned that? From Adam. Faith cometh by hearing. And the writer of Hebrews teaches us that Abel's offering was accepted because it was filled with faith. How did faith come to Abel to offer that sacrifice? He heard it. Who did he hear it from? It's what the church calls oral tradition, holy tradition, oral communication. Who did he hear it from? Adam. Adam learned that when he failed, most likely, God covered him with animal skins, blood, and he learned something about God. That when you fail, blood is required. Bring him an offering. He passed that down to his children. Abel obeyed, Cain did not. Abel received faith through hearing what his father told him. Abraham knew after offering a tenth, which he must have learned from the Lord, he offers Melchizedek a tenth, who I think is a theophany, a manifestation of the preincarnate Son, Melchizedek. Abraham knows the only way I know how to react to you, because you conquered my enemies, and the Lord has conquered our enemies as a church, he's destroyed the powers of hell. He gives a tenth to Melchizedek. So we see this giving. Melchizedek receives it. This is not law. This is not law. This is Christian living. This is basic spiritual Christian living. Melchizedek pronounces a blessing to him, right? Now we see this move into the basic lifestyle of the Church of Israel, and then Jesus endorses it. Again, back to my question. If we want to believe that it's only law, fine. We can discuss that. I don't know how you would see that, but let's just say you did. Back to the grace issue. If it's only law, then wouldn't the new covenant call us higher? Where do we see examples? Where the early church took all their possessions and gave it, put it at the apostles' feet, and then distributed it. So my point is the tithe was around prior to the law, it moves through the law, it transcends the law, Jesus endorses it, and the new covenant calls us higher into the lifestyle of radical, compassionate, holy generosity. And again, my prayer is that Jesus be glorified. Yes, I want him to bless your lives. I do. I do. I want you to leave an inheritance for your children's children. I want God, to me, success is this in this area of living, in financial living. Is God able to accomplish his perfect destiny for your life? And do you have the means to see that accomplished? And by the way, none of us are taking anything with us. I want to leave a dent, a dent on this earth for the kingdom, and few things do it like radically giving. And that's what I want us to be. So I love you. Father, in Jesus' name, bless your people, keep them as the apple of your eye, hide them under the shadow of your wings. Lord, I thank you for this journey that we're all going on together to be faithful in this area. And you said, Lord, the only place in the Bible where you said, test me in this. Test me in this.
