Heaven's Treasures

by Dennis King

Overview

The first command that explained everything belongs to the Lord's is found in Leviticus 27:30-32, (NKJV) And all the tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land or of the fruit of the tree, is the Lord’s. It is holy to the Lord. 31 If a man wants at all to redeem any of his tithes, he shall add one-fifth to it. 32 And concerning the tithe of the herd or the flock, of whatever passes under the rod, the tenth one shall be holy to the Lord.
To pass along what I believe to be the correct message on tithing, I had to depart from the Easy-to-read-version. The ERV translated those same verses as: 30 “A tenth of all crops belongs to the Lord. This means the crops from fields and the fruit from trees—a tenth belongs to the Lord. 31 So if you want to get back your tenth, you must add one-fifth to its price and then buy it back. 32 “The priests will take every tenth animal from a person’s cattle or sheep. Every tenth animal will belong to the Lord.
Do you read what I read there in the ERV and find any fault with that translation? The answer is within this essay.

About the Author

Hello friends, If you are looking to see the selection of my books and essays you've come to the right place. All you have to do is scroll down a couple of pages to review those selections.

After high school, I joined the Marine Corps in 1965. There I served as a CRYPTO electronic technician and volunteer helicopter door-gunner with over 100 combat missions. After the Marine Corps, I missed the comradery, so I enlisted in the US Army and served with the Army Security Agency. That's the military version of NSA, the National Security Agency. After reaching Staff Sergeant (E-6), I requested Officer Candidate School. As a Signal Officer, there were assignments in Field Artillery, Signal Battalions, and Recruiting Command. My last assignment, at the Pentagon, was with the Information Systems, Army Research & Development Agency.

I've Invented and offer the TOSS Deluxe Playing Cards, an eight-suited deck, which can be reviewed at Toss.iWARP.com or email me at [e-mail]. Besides the 'BlackSteel' novels and 'The Soul Searching Robot', I have written 'Sunken Timbers', 'The Strawberry Squirrel', and two illustrated Tick, Tock, and Tink adventures, all children's stories. Then there are the 20,000 words of poetry written to capture the heart of my dear wife. These, I consider my most important works to date.

Now retired and still serving my country as a Red Cross Disaster Responder and volunteer driver delivering Blood in a three-state area. Please email any comments on my work, good or bad.
