First Fruit Offering - Why, How And When (full Guide) by Samchimezie(m): 9:18pm On Nov 05, 2020 |
WHAT IS ‘FIRST FRUITS’? It’s important to understand that First Fruits is a biblical principle that is practised and emphasised throughout the Bible. It begins in the origins of the Bible with faithful believers like Abel (in Genesis 4) and Moses (in Exodus 23) & continues into the New Testament through the Apsotle Paul’s writings. It was Moses who said, “As you harvest your crops, bring the very best of the first harvest to the house of the Lord your God.” (Exodus 23:19) King Solomon wrote about it too: “Honour the Lord with your wealth, with the firstfruits of all your crops; then your barns will be filled to overflowing, and your vats will brim over with new wine.” (Proverbs 3:9-10) The principle of First Fruits is when we give the first and best of our fruit to God. |

Samchimezie, what you have done here amounts to lying in the name of God. The offering of the first fruits as described in the Old Covenant are laws that were set in place by God for the nation of Israel to live by. If you note, the first fruits were offered of their fruits, liquors, firstborn sons, first born of their lifestock etc. Read those laws with your own eyes to see that God was specific on what was to be offered to Him. He never asked for people to donate money in His name as first fruit. And you know what else, He was also specific as to whom the Old Covenant laws apply to. God is not a fool that He would give His Old Covenant to the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and then expect people in Nigeria, people who live far away from the land He promised to His people, Israel, to live by the same rules. Stop making God look like one by your false teachings. |
