The Delusion of the thirty, sixty and hundred fold for monetary returns – twisting the Word of God

The Delusion of the thirty, sixty and hundred fold for monetary returns – twisting the Word of God.

Written by Joseph Ho, June 13th 2010

Traditionally when the church needed money, many will pray and asked God for their provision and that was it. The spirit of God would move the chosen people to give and the church would have just enough to do the work for God. Nowadays, Pastor would quote scripture to tell his congregation that Matthew and Mark speaks of giving to God and receiving the thirty, sixty and hundred fold returns if they gave unto God. Essentially, there is no mincing of words, if you give money to God, God will multiply your seed (money) and return back to you.

Have you ever read the bible carefully on what it means? I have many times and I read them again last night. That is why I am writing to tell those who believes in this fantasy to stop their covetous thinking. Jesus was referring to the Word of God as the seed. The seed is the Word of God that you sow when you spread the Gospel and God will multiply the seed to you many times over so that you may have the word of God which is the truth to sow more. Jesus never once implied that the Seed is about Money. No he did not and please mark my words "SEED IN THE BIBLE DON'T REFER TO YOUR MONEY" never has and never will be. You read what you want it to be and use your own understanding not what it is supposed to be.

Those people who took the Word of God and twisted them to refer to money so that they persuade you to give unto their ministry are misrepresenting the Word of God. Jesus used the symbolic word Seed to refer to the word of God. That is why some fell on good soil and some on hard soil and some fell on dry soil, therefore Jesus said the heart condition represents the soil conditions of the man who hears the Gospel. Jesus never intended the Seed to refer to money given unto his work. Jesus never once told his disciple to get the people to give unto them so that they would be blessed. No, he did not, and he told his disciple to take nothing when they go out to preach, nothing, not even an extra tunic for cloth.

Matthew 13:8
Still other seed fell on good soil, where it produced a crop—a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was sown.

Matthew 13:23
But the one who received the seed that fell on good soil is the man who hears the word and understands it. He produces a crop, yielding a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was sown."

Mark 4:8
Still other seed fell on good soil. It came up, grew and produced a crop, multiplying thirty, sixty, or even a hundred times."

Mark 4:20
Others, like seed sown on good soil, hear the word, accept it, and produce a crop—thirty, sixty or even a hundred times what was sown."

If you don't believe a word I said, read this passage which I took from the bible and you shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free. Free from tithing your misery to a church that keeps building stones towers and not spreading the Gospel like what Jesus did in times of old. Please read this carefully in case you never read your bible.

Matthew 13

The Parable of the Sower

1That same day Jesus went out of the house and sat by the lake. 2Such large crowds gathered around him that he got into a boat and sat in it, while all the people stood on the shore. 3Then he told them many things in parables, saying: "A farmer went out to sow his seed. 4As he was scattering the seed, some fell along the path, and the birds came and ate it up. 5Some fell on rocky places, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly, because the soil was shallow. 6But when the sun came up, the plants were scorched, and they withered because they had no root. 7Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up and choked the plants. 8Still other seed fell on good soil, where it produced a crop—a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was sown. 9He who has ears, let him hear."

10The disciples came to him and asked, "Why do you speak to the people in parables?"

11He replied, "The knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you, but not to them. 12Whoever has will be given more, and he will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken from him. 13This is why I speak to them in parables:
"Though seeing, they do not see;
though hearing, they do not hear or understand. 14In them is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah:
" 'You will be ever hearing but never understanding;
you will be ever seeing but never perceiving.
15For this people's heart has become calloused;
they hardly hear with their ears,
and they have closed their eyes.
Otherwise they might see with their eyes,
hear with their ears,
understand with their hearts
and turn, and I would heal them.'[a] 16But blessed are your eyes because they see, and your ears because they hear. 17For I tell you the truth, many prophets and righteous men longed to see what you see but did not see it, and to hear what you hear but did not hear it.

18"Listen then to what the parable of the sower means: 19When anyone hears the message about the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what was sown in his heart. This is the seed sown along the path. 20The one who received the seed that fell on rocky places is the man who hears the word and at once receives it with joy. 21But since he has no root, he lasts only a short time. When trouble or persecution comes because of the word, he quickly falls away. 22The one who received the seed that fell among the thorns is the man who hears the word, but the worries of this life and the deceitfulness of wealth choke it, making it unfruitful. 23But the one who received the seed that fell on good soil is the man who hears the word and understands it. He produces a crop, yielding a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was sown."

What was Jesus talking about when he said the one who received the seed that fell on good soil is the man who hears the word and understands it? Did Jesus say that it is the man who gave his money to his church? No, never was and never is and never shall it be that way. Jesus never taught anyone to give so that God will give them back in such terms he was talking about the word of God. It's the word of God that will produce a hundred sixty or thirty times that which was sown on good ground. So what is this good ground, it refers to a fertile heart, a heart of humility and a heart which seeks the Truth; therefore it will be set free. We must not take the Word of God out of context and use it as if that was what God had said. If we add to the Word of God, we would be committing a blasphemy against the Holy Spirit and that alone in olden times mean death.

So someone distorted this bible verse and it became a snare and those who continue not to believe the truth but the lie will be cursed with the delusion. God will send a powerful lie to those who do not seek the truth and they shall be trapped by this lie. This is one of those powerful delusions that God has sent to his people as a warning against believing in untruth.

2 Thessalonians 2:9-12 (New International Version)

9The coming of the lawless one will be in accordance with the work of Satan displayed in all kinds of counterfeit miracles, signs and wonders, 10and in every sort of evil that deceives those who are perishing. They perish because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. 11For this reason God sends them a powerful delusion so that they will believe the lie 12and so that all will be condemned who have not believed the truth but have delighted in wickedness.

It's all in the bible and if you bother to read it yourself instead of allowing someone else to read it to you, you would have seen this truth a long time ago. I am no super apostle of God nor a graduate of any theological school, but one thing is for sure, I know the bible well enough to tell you all that this thirty, sixty and hundred fold refers to the Word of God and Jesus was using this Seed example to teach the people of his time since most of them are farmers. We are to work out our own salvation with trembling.

Those who use scripture this way will be assigned the same place as Satan when he told Jesus to go jump off a building and show that God will save him. Satan is a master twister of the Word of God to get people to go astray. And many have already gone astray and suffering for this delusion. Getting Christians to wrongly obey the scripture is the best offensive tool that the Devil can bring about because Christians while falling for the lie still believes its "Biblical" and how evil can that be? So If you lack wisdom, do ask God to give unto you and surely a good father will give you bread instead of a stone.

So awake my fellow brothers, get spirit filled by the Holy Spirit and be indoctrinated with wisdom and please read your bible daily. Don't because of your busy schedule that you assign your eternity to a fool to interpret the bible for you. I write to show this truth which is already in the bible and don't get me wrong. I don't like publicity at all but someone has to switch on the light if everyone is in darkness. So I am just the light switcher who happens to see everyone in darkness. How can a born again Spirit filled Christian be in delusion and fall into a trap which is a lie? Isn't all Spirit-filled Christians wise people who are the head and not the tail? Could it be you are not Spirit-filled at all? Why would the Holy Spirit not warn you that this is a lie? He is the comforter and the guide to all truth. If this was a lie why didn't the Spirit warn you all?

Its time to seek the truth and get the truth, because a powerful delusion has gone throughout the land and most of the people have been caught in this web and only God can set you all free. I pray for the truth to be revealed and that God's mercy will heal all of you from this pain of being deluded by the twisted Word of God. And if you want to know more about the truth come to my website at Kingscepter or send me an email at prophet3333@yahoo.com. May God open the eyes of your heart one more time since all of you are now his sheep, but the wolves have come into the sheep pen and we have to know who are they.
