This lesson of YAH is only for those who believe and have come into understanding of His Commands. Those who have not crossed over to the truth of His kingdom are still doing things that are right in their own eyes. (Deut.12:8)
The Commands are for the believers who have given their lives to יהוה to walk in all His ways--not doing what is right in their own eyes but whatever is the will of Elohim.
Family of Messiah Fellowship is a chosen and anointed Ministry of the End-times. This Ministry developed from the 20 years walk of belief, by Michael and Ruth Dunn and their family. They have learned through seeking the kingdom of Elohim, that giving and sacrificing must be done with a pure heart and compassion.
They are in the Ministry because of their love for Elohim and for people. Twenty years of being of service to bring people the help that they need, spiritual and physical. The Scriptures have said a worker is worthy of His labor. This web-page was recently generated because the Ministers have now been made complete in Elohim to be His spiritual House and to receive the tithes and offering.
When you send or bring your offerings to this House of Elohim, you will be blessed because Yah is faithful and He is trustworthy to increase you. Some have said that they do not have to give tithes because there is no temple, we believe that this is wrong thinking, because in the Messiah we are a chosen priesthood in His kingdom to do His services. The services must continue through the Messiah Yahushuah, our High Priest. He is our Hope on the earth.
Until He sends the third Temple to us on earth, we serve Him from below for the Temple is in Heaven and our services are toward the heavenly Temple. Our belief and service to our High Priest the Messiah Yahushuah who is our connection between Heaven and earth. It is our belief in Him that brings the Temple from above into our hearts.
The below Scriptures are very clear that we are to give our offerings to the Set-Apart Place (Holy Place). The tithe belongs to Elohim and it must go to those doing the services of the set-apart place.
Many have needs who approach this ministry for help and many times we have had to turn them down from a lack of funds, because not enough people obey Yah to send their tithes and offerings. People want the services, but they do not obey Elohim when it comes to money. We often wonder why was there a money box with Yahushuah when He walked the earth? If the tithes went only to the Temple, then who was giving to the ministry of the Messiah?
Let us now obey Elohim and give to Him by giving to His servants, so that the works and services are not hindered. Obedience brings blessings (Deut.28:1-14)! Please study Scriptures to obey them.
OFFERINGS TO THE EMMISARIES MUST CONTINUE!
The reason for the offerings to the emissaries was to obey the Word to give your offerings and tithes to YAHUAH by giving to the work of the Ministry which involved the needy, to distribute to those who had needs. To obey and to give is Righteousness!
Some has said where are the Levites? During the time of Kepha (Peter's) Ministry there was a certain Levite by the name of Yoseph also called Barnabah by the emissaries (apostles). Yoseph sold the land that he had and brought the proceeds and laid it at the feet of the emissaries.(Acts 4:36-37). If this Levite gave of his wealth to the emissary Kepha then he must have seen Kepha as a priest of the House of YAHUAH through YAHUSHUAH.This Levite was called Barnabah by the Apostles because he was a Son of Encouragement. The Scriptures below show how the believers had a heart of obedience and love toward YAHUAH and His followers of YAHUSHUAH.
Act 4:32 And the group of those who believed were of one heart and one being. And no one claimed that any of his possessions was his own, but they had all in common.
Act 4:33 And with great power the emissaries gave witness to the resurrection of the Master יהושע, and great favour was upon them all.
Act 4:34 For there was not anyone needy among them, for all who were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of what was sold,
Act 4:35 and laid them at the feet of the emissaries, and they distributed to each as anyone had need.
Our hearts must be for those in needs, so that when the tables turn and we find ourselves in need, there would be food in YAHUAH'S storehouse for everyone. Give that it be given to you.Invest in the work of our Master YAHUSHUAH and your reward will be great in the heaven and on earth in this life and in the life to come. When you give to this work of YAHUAH through this Ministry you will be blessed and will receive the goodness of יהוה
The Priesthood was established to make atonement for the people of Elohim.
Zep 3:10 “From beyond the rivers of Kush my worshippers, the daughter of My dispersed ones, shall bring My offering.
Deb/Deut. 12:1 “These are the laws and right-rulings which you guard to do in the land which יהוה Elohim of your fathers is giving you to possess, all the days that you live on the soil."
Heb 2:17 So in every way He had to be made like His brothers, in order to become a compassionate and trustworthy High Priest in matters related to Elohim, to make atonement for the sins of the people.
The Priesthood had helpers to assist in the service of the set-apart place.
Bem/Num 18:2 “But bring with you your brothers of the tribe of Lĕwi too, the tribe of your father to join you and serve you while you and your sons are with you before the Tent of the Witness.
Num 18:6 “And see, I Myself have taken your brothers the Lĕwites from the midst of the children of Yisra’ĕl – a gift to you, given by יהוה, to do the service of the Tent of Meeting."
The Priesthood was an office for the chosen ones who were given the duties of the Altar.
Bem/Num 18:7 “But you and your sons with you are to guard your priesthood for all matters at the altar and behind the veil, and you shall serve. I have given you the priesthood as a gift for service, but the stranger who comes near is put to death.”
The Priesthood has the responsibility for all the contributions for the annointing.
Bem/Num 18:8 And יהוה spoke to Aharon, “And see, I Myself have also given you the charge of My contributions, all the set-apart gifts of the children of Yisra’ĕl. I have given them to you for the anointing, and to your sons, as a law forever.
The Ministry of our Messiah are to receive all the contributions of the set-apart gifts to complete the covenant of salt. The priests today are the chosen emissaries of YAHUSHUAH: A Royal Priesthood and set-apart nation is His Reign today.
Bem/Num 18:19 “All the contributions of the set-apart gifts, which the children of Yisra’ĕl present to יהוה, I have given to you and your sons and daughters with you as a law forever. It is a covenant of salt forever before יהוה with you and your seed with you.”
We do distribute to the poor that they have peace. This peace is the Covenant of Salt. His people must be at peace and rest, therefore we must help with all their needs.
The inheritance of the Priest is יהוה
Bem/Num 18:20 And יהוה said to Aharon, “You are not to have an inheritance in their land, nor have any portion in their midst. I am your portion and your inheritance among the children of Yisra’ĕl.
The Messiah Yahushuah has been chosen by Elohim to be a Priest forever!
Teh/Psa 110:4 יהוהhas sworn and does not relent, “You are a priest forever According to the order of Malkitseḏeq.”
Ibr/Heb 2:17 So in every way He had to be made like His brothers, in order to become a compassionate and trustworthy High Priest in matters related to Elohim, to make atonement for the sins of the people.
Heb 4:14 Therefore, since we have a great High Priest who has passed through the heavens, יהושעthe Son of Elohim, let us hold fast our confession.
YAHUAH chooses the priest to be in charge of the storeroom.
Where do the contributions and tithes of יהוהgo?
Deb/Deu 12:5 "but seek the place which יהוהyour Elohim chooses, out of all your tribes, to put His Name there, for His Dwelling Place, and there you shall enter.
Deu 12:6 “And there you shall take your burnt offerings, and your offerings, and your tithes, and the contributions of your hand, and your vowed offerings, and your voluntary offerings, and the firstlings of your herd and of your flock.
Deu 12:7 “And there you shall eat before יהוהyour Elohim, and shall rejoice in all that you put your hand to, you and your households, in which יהוה your Elohim has blessed you.
Deu 12:8 “Do not do as we are doing here today – each one doing whatever is right in his own eyes. (See Jud. 17:6 & 21:25)
Exo.30:16 “And you shall take the silver for the atonement from the children of Yisra’ĕl, and give it for the service of the Tent of Meeting. And it shall be to the children of Yisra’ĕl for a remembrance before יהוה, to make atonement for yourselves.”
Acts 4:33-35
Act 4:33 And with great power the emissaries gave witness to the resurrection of the Master יהושע, and great favour was upon them all.
Act 4:34 For there was not anyone needy among them, for all who were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of what was sold,
Act 4:35 and laid them at the feet of the emissaries, and they distributed to each as anyone had need.
All contributions are to go to the place where His Name dwells or where He has placed His Name.His Name dwells in the hearts of His chosen ones, not just a place but in a person especially.
The laborers, those chosen and anointed to do the works of the Kingdom on earth, must have financial and spiritual help. Remember that the Messiah must had collected offerings becasuse they did have a money box with them. How shall the works continue if no one gives their offerings which in turn blesses them. Obeying His Commands to give causes your life to improve and things go well. He gives to the obedient ones favor.
Obey His Word and be blessed!
Deb/Deu 12:11 “And it shall be, that unto the place which יהוהyour Elohim chooses to make His Name dwell there, there you are to bring all that I command you: your burnt offerings, and your offerings, and your tithes, and the contributions of your hand, and all your choice offerings which you vow to יהוה.
Deu 12:12 “And you shall rejoice before יהוהyour Elohim, you and your sons and your daughters, and your male servants and your female servants, and the Lĕwite who is within your gates, since he has no portion nor inheritance with you.
Follow His Commands as they are written: Obedience is better than sacrifice!
Deb/Deu 12:32 “All the words I am commanding you, guard to do it – do not add to it nor take away from it.
We Must all obey Elohim to bring the Contributions to His House. Would a man rob Elohim?
Mal 3:10 “Bring all the tithes into the storehouse, and let there be food in My house. And please prove Me in this,” said יהוהof hosts, “whether I do not open for you the windows of the heavens, and shall pour out for you boundless blessing!
Mal 3:7 “From the days of your fathers you have turned aside from My laws and did not guard them. Turn back to Me, and I shall turn back to you,” said יהוהof hosts. “But you said, ‘In what shall we turn back?’
Mal 3:8 “Would a man rob Elohim? Yet you are robbing Me! But you said, ‘In what have we robbed You?’ In the tithe and the offering!
Mal 3:9 “You have cursed Me with a curse, for you are robbing Me, this nation, all of it!
Giving the Tithes releases blessings into your life.
Mal 3:10 “Bring all the tithes into the storehouse, and let there be food in My house. And please prove Me in this,” said יהוהof hosts, “whether I do not open for you the windows of the heavens, and shall pour out for you boundless blessing!
Mal 3:11 “And I shall rebuke the devourer for you, so that it does not destroy the fruit of your ground, nor does the vine fail to bear fruit for you in the field,” said יהוהof hosts.
Mal 3:12 “And all nations shall call you blessed, for you shall be a land of delight,” said יהוהof hosts.
The Messiah יהושׁה[Yahushuah] has been given all authority in Heaven and earth
Mat 9:6 “But in order for you to know that the Son of Aḏam possesses authority on earth to forgive sins...” He then said to the paralytic, “Rise, take up your bed, and go to your house.”
Mat 9:7 And he rose and went to his house.
Mat 9:8 And when the crowds saw it, they marvelled and praised Elohim who had given such authority to men.
Mat 28:18 Andיהושעcame up and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth.
Authority has been given to His taught ones (followers who followed Him in the rebirth)
Luk 9:1 And having called His twelve taught ones together, He gave them power and authority over all demons, and to heal diseases.
Luk 10:19 “See, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and none at all shall hurt you.
As His followers (Family of Messiah Fellowship) we are to be a reign of priests and sovereigns to Elohim. The Messiah made this possible. We have become the priests and lewites for the Set-Apart Place in the latter day.
Rev 1:6 and has made us sovereigns and priests to His Elohim and Father, to Him be esteem and rule forever and ever. Amĕn.
Rev 5:10 and made us sovereigns and priests to our Elohim, and we shall reign upon the earth.”
We shall reign with Him seated on His Throne---The Priesthood re-established.
Mat 19:28 And יהושׁהsaid to them, “Truly I say to you, when the Son of Aḏam sits on the throne of His esteem, you who have followed Me in the rebirth, shall also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Yisra’ĕl.
We have built a 'wall' so that we can stand in the breach in defense of Israel, to protect, intercede and make provisions for the land and the people of Israel and Israel worldwide.
Restoration of Priestly Service to the Set-Apart Place:
Making Atonement for the people (Yahushuah is our Atonement). This Ministry has been anointed to make intercessions for the people, and for all Israel! Our prayers are being heard and answered-HalleluYAH!
Joh 20:21 Then יהושעsaid to them again, “Peace to you! As the Father has sent Me, I also send you.”
Joh 20:22 And having said this, He breathed on them, and said to them, “Receive the Set-apart Spirit.
Joh 20:23 “If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven them; if you retain the sins of any, they have been retained.”
Shepherding the people of Elohim:We are Spiritual Nurses to take care of the needs of all His set-apart ones as well as the stranger, fatherless & widows-All people! The leadership here has been given authority over the storeroom to recieve the tithes and offerings.
Joh 21:15 When, therefore, they had eaten breakfast, יהושע said to Shimʽon Kĕpha, “Shimʽon, son of Yonah, do you love Me more than these?” He said to Him, “Yea, Master, You know that I love You.” He said to him, “Feed My lambs.”
Joh 21:16 He said to him again, the second time, “Shimʽon, son of Yonah, do you love Me?” He said to Him, “Yea, Master, You know that I love You.” He said to him, “Shepherd My sheep.”
Joh 21:17 He said to him the third time, “Shimʽon, son of Yonah, do you love Me?” Kĕpha was sad because He said to him the third time, “Do you love Me?” And he said to Him, “Master, You know all, You know that I love You.” יהושע said to him, “Feed My sheep."
The Contributions can now come to this house, for we have forsaken all to seek the Reign of Elohim and His Righteousness and have received the anointing of the priesthood.
Mat 19:29 “And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or lands, for My Name’s sake, shall receive a hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life.
Mat 19:30 “But many who are first shall be last, and the last first.
Family of Messiah Fellowship was chosen to do the work of the priesthood through the Messiah Yahushuah and to receive the contributions to Elohim. When one witholds the contributions and offerings to Elohim and not send them to the set-apart place which is called by His Name, then their blessings are also with held from Yah. Obedience is better than sacrifice. The store rooms of Elohim must be filled, that the needs of the Set-Apart Place and of the people be met. Yahuah will make provisions for the needs of His people including the strangers among them.
The authority of the storeroom priest was given to Ruth & Michael Dunn. In 1991, Elohim gave Ruth a dream showing her in charge of His storeroom with responsibility over the contributions to Him. (Neh.13:11-13)
Yahushuah is our High Priest, and we are His priests in the Reign of Elohim. Praise YAH! Elohim is fulfilling His promises to Abraham through this Assembly. We are set-apart unto Yahuah, to do the services of the Set-Apart Place. Daily prayers, making provisions, and overall caring for the needy has become our lifestyle. Healing the sick, delivering the oppressed from the devil and stopping the works of the Devil through the Set-Apart Spirit of Yahuah are the main services of the priests (Helpers).
Send your contributions and tithes to this Assembly to be placed upon this Altar for a blessing to come over you and your household.
