Help in the "Breaking of the Bread"
Every religious organization needs financial help. We are no
exception.
Some organizations give away all their literature, but tax
(tithe) their flock in order to pay for the literature. (see,
Freely you have
received, freely give) Over the Internet, those with
computers can download some of our literature. That is, if they
know about our site. But most people in the world don't have
computers. Some can't read; some don't like to read. But all
must hear the good news in one form or another.
"13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the
Lord shall be saved. 14 How then shall they call on
him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they
believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall
they hear without a preacher? ... 17 So then faith by
hearing, and hearing by the word of God." (Rom
10:13-17)
If they don't hear the message, how will they know of it? We
must therefore publish to them.
We are the only organization we know that:
- manifests the Name of the all powerful God
- teaches about the soon coming Kingdom of God
- shows you what world leader has the
number of the Beast
- explains prophecy and will announce on the 1260th day
when your salvation and the Kingdom will come
- points out the hard and paradoxical scriptures in the
Bible
- explains how these paradoxes will all come true
- gives you the real reason why God allows suffering
- shows you why there is good and evil
- talks openly about the "problem of evil" and where evil
comes from
- explains how God will become, "all in all"
- etc
Now is the time to reach out to the world
Nothing physical is free. Someone pays. Only with your
help and God's can we get the message out. We need to build an
active world-wide team of those who not only think they
are in Christ, but are. We need to build a community of those
who believe in the
system of love. As more people are connected to the
Internet the cost should be less per person than a few years
ago. (Someone still has to point them to the web site and this
takes effort, time, and money.) Nevertheless, there will be
expenses:
- advertisement;
- translation of literature;
- paper literature;
- audio literature;
- and expenses for those doing the work of publishing the
good news; etc.
Tithing? Although we do not believe
that giving ten percent (tithing) of your income is a
required for Christians, there is ample evidence in the New
Testament that one
proof of one's Christianity is manifested by their gifts to
the church. (Mat
6:19-24, 10:10; Luke 10:7, 12:16-21; 1Cor 9:1-14; etc.) In
some cases and at certain times, your duty may be to give more
than ten percent. Some people actually sold everything they had
and gave it to the New Testament Church. (Mat
19:21; Acts 2:44-45, 4:32-35; 2Cor 8:14-15; Eph 4:28) We are
not asking you to do this, but if you do not give anything, it
shows that:
- the message is not important to you (you really don't
believe)
- or it shows you are one of the poorest persons in the
world.
What I am asking for. To become a partner you should
contribute at least $20 per month, with those who have
average paying jobs it should be $20 per week. Twenty dollars is
only one inexpensive meal for two at your local fast food
restaurant. Isn't Spiritual food worth more than physical food?
You should also think about doing other participating
activities.
[If you are a real member of God's Church
you will be more interested in the Bible and Church matters
than any hobby. If your hobby (golf, collecting physical
things, talking, searching the Net, etc.) is more important
than matters pertaining to God, then you are in danger of
losing everything. The Last War's fire will burn everything
and everyone up (2Pet
3:7-13) who is not given mercy by God.]
Note: We are talking here about those with jobs in
developed areas. That is, we are not asking for money from
people making a few dollars a day. See next item if you make
poor wages compared to developed areas of the world.
If you have no money you can still become a participating
member:
- get other web sites to include a link on their site to our
site [our site at:
http://becomingone.org]
- hand out our literature to potential members, talk to others
about the BeComingOne Church beliefs
- help give us contact to other interested potential members.
- in some way get us contact or web sites with so-called experts in
chronology, theology, etc.
- you send us your ideas
What you receive as a partner. You get a chance to
help spread the good news of the coming Kingdom of God. Christ
asked us to spread the good news about the Kingdom. Shouldn't we
do as he asked? You get access to our new password protected
site, a Participating Member Letter, printed papers and
doctrines, future Real Audio and video clips (some live), etc.

__________________________________________________
Other
reasons for becoming a participating member.
- If you have the Spirit of God you will want to be
a participating member.
- Fellowship. You say you want to fellowship with
fellow Christians near your town, but are disappointed that
there are none near you? How is this going to happen if we
don't publish our good news so others of like minds can hear
about us? Because of modern communication systems
(Internet, phones, faxes, radio, etc) we don't necessarily
need ministers in each area, but we do need teachers in the
field to visit God's flock. We need full time teachers out
in the field. The harvest is becoming ripe. With your help
we can do more in this area. You will not have a physical
fellowship in your area, if those in your area don't know
about it. And they won't know about it, if we don't publish
the truth.
- Physical wealth to burn up. If these are the last
days, and they are, our wealth will not do us any good in
gaining the kingdom of heaven, but it will do good in
transmitting the good news to the world of the coming
kingdom of God and other important information on God, His
Name, His coming glory. Your physical goods will all burn up
in a few short years. (2Pet
3:7-12) Real wealth is Spiritual wealth. (Luke
12:15,21,33-34)
- God works through his Church -- don't expect God
to do it without your participation.
Final Word. We are not asking those, absolutely poor,
who cannot give monetary gifts (money, land, stocks, etc) to
give; we are asking those who can give and should give. But
remember even the very poor can give money. (Luke
21:1-3) For the poorest of poor there are also other kinds
of gifts: your time, energy, and abilities. None
in the Body of Christ can be passive and just watch as others do
the work of getting out the word. Once you know the
truth you must work in love: your Spirit will drive you.
Reading the Bible in your home, reading this web site,
or home study is not enough. We all have an obligation to get
the word out. (Mat
28:19-20) Be careful. If we are not
driven to get the
word out, we may not have the Spirit. (Of course, work does not
earn us the kingdom of heaven, for the Grace of God gives that,
but it is our proof that we have the Grace of God.)
Each of us must be careful not to be a
dead beat
-- but to participate in spreading the good news.
Support the BeComingOne Church and become a part of the
end-time team, become a part of the breaking of the Spiritual
bread and the passing of it out to others in need.
(Acts
2:42, Spiritual meaning)
