Jesus said to render unto Caesar that which belongs to Caesar, and render to God that which belongs to God. People need and use your money, NOT GOD. We should give with a free heart and not regret doing it.....not for show, but because we truly want to help because of the LOVE we have in us from God....for if we have been Born Again of God, we are Born of LOVE. Its not just about the 10 percent as under the Law, but now its giving 100 percent of your whole heart, soul, mind and strength. If you have God in your life, you will give according to how much you can and want to afford. May God richly bless whomever reads this.....

Why do Christians care about Hebrew scripture?
Because the vast majority of Christians believe that the Hebrew scriptures are just as valid as the new testament scriptures. While parts of the old testament scriptures have been overridden by Jesus's death on the cross and the transformation of living under the law to now living under grace, most Christians still believe that the old testament is still part of God's word. In fact, much of the new testament relates back to the old testament, the book of Hebrews in particular. Many Christians look to the old testament to find prophesies fulfilled in the life of Christ especially in the book of Isiah.

He wanted his Gospel to be seen as the successor to the Hebrew scriptures.

AnswerNo. The first five books of the Bible are called the Pentateuch.The Septuagint ('LXX') was an early Greek translation of all the Hebrew scriptures. It certainly began with the translation of the Pentateuch, as these were regarded as the five most important scriptures, but the project continued until all the scriptures were available to the Jews of the diaspora, who could not read the scriptures in Hebrew.

What do the Scriptures in the Bible mean?
A:When the word 'scripture' is used in the New Testament, it is a reference to the Hebrew scriptures, or what we now call the Old Testament. The one partial exception to this is in 2 Peter 3:16, which refers to Paul's epistles as scripture, along with the "other scriptures." Second Peter was arguably the last book of the New Testament to have been written, dated by scholars to just before the middle of the second century, and by then Paul's epistles were considered scripture, as is reflected in this mistake in an epistle that was intended to appear to have been written by the apostle Peter.

Why is the old testament called the Hebrew Scriptures?
The name Old Testament derives from the Christian view of the text, namely that it refers to the first covenant that God made, i.e. the older of the two covenants or testaments.
