Would you mind posting my entire message to Al? GG and RR aren't
carrying it any longer, but I'd like to see the context.
I wasn't recommending stealing. I also wasn't recommending that a
person avoid paying credit bills. I was suggesting that a person
should do both: tithe and pay credit bills.
If you would have read Al's message, I think you would have seen that
he wanted to pay off his credit bills and was wondering if he should
do both tithe and pay them. I emphasized the importance of tithing;
regardless of how many bills he had.
Sincerely,
Jason
