Tithes & Alms

​

• We have an exhortation for our sisters in the faith and anyone desiring to serve the Lord Yache Christ. We encourage our sisters and all women in hopes of provoking you unto the calling of Christ to be an example of a Believer because you all are essential to the salvation of the world. 

The Epistle of Polycarp to the Philippians 4:1-2

 ...let us arm ourselves with the armor of righteousness, and let us teach ourselves first to walk in the commandment of the Lord; 2 and then our wives also, to walk in the faith that hath been given unto them and in love and purity, cherishing their own husbands in all truth and loving all men equally in all chastity, and to train their children in the training of the fear of Alahayim.

​

1Pe 3:1 

Likewise, ye wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; that, if any obey not the word, they also may without the word be won by the conversation G391 of the wives;

​

• As Peter testifies, it is your behavior that will win over an unbeliever (whether its your own husband or someone else) if they do not believe the Gospel, the Law and the Testimony, because they will see your pure behavior and demonstration of the Spirit [I Cor 2:4-5] and be convinced of the power of Alahayim through Lord Yache. If your husband is a believer, the unity of your household in obedience unto your Husband in everything is the true image of the Alahayim, as we will learn from the testimonies of the Holy Spirit, which will convert unbelievers in the world as well.

I Pe 3:2-4

While they behold your chaste conversation coupled with fear.​​ 3 Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel; 4 But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of Alahayim of great price

​

• A meek and quiet woman who submits to her head of household in reverence is mighty in the faith and of great price unto Alahayim because she can convert unbelievers;

Sir 26:13-15

The grace of a wife delighteth her husband, and her discretion will fat his bones. 14 A silent and loving woman is a gift of the Lord, and there is nothing so much worth, as a mind well instructed. 15 A shamefaced and faithful woman is a double grace, and her continent mind cannot be valued.

Sir 36:23

 If there be kindness, meekness, and comfort, in her tongue, then is not her husband like other men. 

• The believing women truly exemplify Wisdom, which is the Holy Spirit, characteristics in their behavior and speech:

James 3:17-18

But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy. 18 And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace.

​

• Eve instructed her children not to transgress against the good:

The Apocalypse of Moses 30

"Now then, my children, I have shown you the way in which we were deceived; and do ye guard yourselves from transgressing against the good."

• The prophets gave understanding of the good and disciples instructed the women unto that which is good for their edification on how to uphold Eve's instruction for all her daughters: ​

Micah 6:8

He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth Ahayah require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy Alahayim?

1 Samuel 12:23-24

Moreover as for me, Alahayim forbid that I should sin against Ahayah in ceasing to pray for you: but I will teach you the good and the right way: 24 Only fear Ahayah, and serve him in truth with all your heart: for consider how great things he hath done for you.

1 Clem 21:6-7

…………Let us guide our women toward that which is good. 7 let them show forth their lovely disposition of purity; let them prove their sincere affection of gentleness; let them make manifest the moderation of their tongue through their silence; let them show their love, not in factious preferences but without partiality towards all them that fear Alahayim, in holiness.​

•  James relayed that Wisdom is without partiality and the disciple, Clement, exhort women unto showing love without partiality as well. In regard to their husbands, Paul gives edification on how they ought to serve them;

Eph 5:22-24 

Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord. 23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body. 24 Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing. 

• Being in subjection unto one's own husband is setting an example of the Church by being as she is unto Christ. For aged women, walking in this righteousness sets an example for the younger women as well to learn to behave in a righteous manner of life, so that the word of Alahayim is not blasphemed. 

​

Tit 2:3  

The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness,

• The behaviors that becometh holiness include:  

Tit 2:2-5

....be sober, grave, temperate, sound in faith, in charity, in patience. 3...not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things; 4 That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children, 5 To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of Alahayim be not blasphemed. 

• When younger women walk in the righteous ordinances of the Lord through his Apostles, it gives none occasion for the adversary to speak reproachfully as well;

1Ti 5:14

I will therefore that the younger women marry, bear children, guide the house, give none occasion to the adversary to speak reproachfully.

• A good wife guiding her house in righteousness is a beautiful thing in the sight of Alahayim:​

Sir 26:16

As the Sun when it ariseth in the high heaven: so is the beauty of a good wife in the ordering of her house.

Pro 31:27 

She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness.

Pro 14:1

 Every wise woman buildeth her house; but the foolish plucketh it down with her hands.​

• When righteous women speak, they give answer with meekness, fear (reverence) and speech seasoned with salt. There is no wickedness in their speech:

Pro 8:7, 13, 8  

For my mouth shall speak truth; and wickedness is an abomination to my lips. 13 The fear of Ahayah is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate. 8 All the words of my mouth are in righteousness; there is nothing froward or perverse in them.

1 Pe 3:15 

But sanctify the Lord Alahayim in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear: 

Col 4:6  

Let your speech be alway with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man. 

1Pe 3:5-6

For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in Alahayim, adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands 6 Even as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him Lord: whose daughters ye are, as long as ye do well, and are not afraid with any amazement:​​​

• The righteous women in scripture reverenced and spoke to her husband with terms of endearment like "my love" or "my beloved" in the Songs of Solomon so that we may know it is righteous to reference one's husband with words of love and terms of endearment as is fitting seeing as though your desire is unto him according to the commandment of the Lord Yache.

Genesis 3:16

Unto the woman he said, ...thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee.

• An example of an affectionate wife unto her husband she desires from her heart, which can be seen in her thoughts and feelings towards him;

Song of Solomon 1:2, 12-17

Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth: for thy love is better than wine. 12 While the king sitteth at his table, my spikenard sendeth forth the smell thereof. 13 A bundle of myrrh is my wellbeloved unto me; he shall lie all night betwixt my breasts. 14 My beloved is unto me as a cluster of camphire in the vineyards of Engedi. 15 Behold, thou art fair, my love; behold, thou art fair; thou hast doves' eyes. 16 Behold, thou art fair, my beloved, yea, pleasant: also our bed is green. 17 The beams of our house are cedar, and our rafters of fir.

Song of Solomon 2:3-10, 16-17

As the apple tree among the trees of the wood, so is my beloved among the sons. I sat down under his shadow with great delight, and his fruit was sweet to my taste. 4 He brought me to the banqueting house, and his banner over me was love. 5 Stay me with flagons, comfort me with apples: for I am sick of love. 6 His left hand is under my head, and his right hand doth embrace me. 7 I charge you, O ye daughters of Jerusalem, by the roes, and by the hinds of the field, that ye stir not up, nor awake my love, till he please. 8 The voice of my beloved! behold, he cometh leaping upon the mountains, skipping upon the hills. 9 My beloved is like a roe or a young hart: behold, he standeth behind our wall, he looketh forth at the windows, shewing himself through the lattice. 10 My beloved spake, and said unto me, Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away. 16 My beloved is mine, and I am his: he feedeth among the lilies. 17 Until the day break, and the shadows flee away, turn, my beloved, and be thou like a roe or a young hart upon the mountains of Bether.

Song of Solomon 3:1-5

By night on my bed I sought him whom my soul loveth: I sought him, but I found him not. 2 I will rise now, and go about the city in the streets, and in the broad ways I will seek him whom my soul loveth: I sought him, but I found him not. 3 The watchmen that go about the city found me: to whom I said, Saw ye him whom my soul loveth? 4 It was but a little that I passed from them, but I found him whom my soul loveth: I held him, and would not let him go, until I had brought him into my mother's house, and into the chamber of her that conceived me. 5 I charge you, O ye daughters of Jerusalem, by the roes, and by the hinds of the field, that ye stir not up, nor awake my love, till he please.

Song of Solomon 5:2-16

I sleep, but my heart waketh: it is the voice of my beloved that knocketh, saying, Open to me, my sister, my love, my dove, my undefiled: for my head is filled with dew, and my locks with the drops of the night. 3 I have put off my coat; how shall I put it on? I have washed my feet; how shall I defile them? 4 My beloved put in his hand by the hole of the door, and my bowels were moved for him. 5 I rose up to open to my beloved; and my hands dropped with myrrh, and my fingers with sweet smelling myrrh, upon the handles of the lock. 6 I opened to my beloved; but my beloved had withdrawn himself, and was gone: my soul failed when he spake: I sought him, but I could not find him; I called him, but he gave me no answer. 8 I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem, if ye find my beloved, that ye tell him, that I am sick of love. 9 What is thy beloved more than another beloved, O thou fairest among women? what is thy beloved more than another beloved, that thou dost so charge us? 10 My beloved is white and ruddy, the chiefest among ten thousand. 11 His head is as the most fine gold, his locks are bushy, and black as a raven. 12 His eyes are as the eyes of doves by the rivers of waters, washed with milk, and fitly set.13 His cheeks are as a bed of spices, as sweet flowers: his lips like lilies, dropping sweet smelling myrrh. 14 His hands are as gold rings set with the beryl: his belly is as bright ivory overlaid with sapphires. 15 His legs are as pillars of marble, set upon sockets of fine gold: his countenance is as Lebanon, excellent as the cedars. 16 His mouth is most sweet: yea, he is altogether lovely. This is my beloved, and this is my friend, O daughters of Jerusalem.

• In her affection and adoration for her husband, she also was his friend, indicating she was an help unto him, having care for his wellbeing, doing him good in his life;​

Ecclesiasticus 6:14

A faithfull friend is a strong defence: and he that hath found such an one hath found a treasure.

Ecclesiasticus 26:22

..a married woman is a tower against death to her husband.

Proverbs 31:11-12

The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil. 12 She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life.

Ecclesiasticus 36:24

He that getteth a wife beginneth a possession, a help like unto himself, and a pillar of rest.

• Righteous women also showed reverence for their husbands, calling them "lord,” like Sarah among other women's example. Interestingly, the English word "husband" supports why women call their husband's 'lord' as well.​ In Old English, husband means "male head of a household or manager" and in Old Norse  húsbóndi is ‘master of a house." There are a few examples of a righteous woman's reverence for her husband:

​

Eve reverencing Adam

Apocalypse of Moses 2:1

1 And after this, Adam and Eve were with one another, and while they were sleeping Eve said to Adam, her Lord: "My lord, Adam, behold, I have seen in a dream this night the blood of my son Amilabes, who is styled Abel, being poured into the mouth of Cain, his brother, and he went on drinking it without pity.

​

Sarai reverencing Abram

Psalms of Solomon 2:40

For Ahayah is good to them that call upon Him in patience, Doing according to His mercy to His pious ones, Establishing them at all times before Him in strength.

• When the Egyptians took Sarai, she was faithful in patience, having only concern for her husband's wellbeing, and made prayer to Alahayim with reverence for her husband in her prayer, which led to her deliverance because of her meekness and quietness of spirit with reverence for her husband in the matter; 

Jasher 15:17

And Sarai also prayed at that time and said: O Lord Alahayim thou didst tell my Lord Abram to go from his land and from his father's house to the land of Canaan, and Thou didst promise to do well with him if he would perform thy commands; now behold, we have done that which Thou didst command us, and we left our land and our families, and we went to a strange land and to a people whom we have not known before."

• Notice, the command was given to Abram, but she speaks of it as if it was a command to both of them because she was in unity with her husband as one flesh, going in the way he would have her as she was after his mind taking the command as if it was her duty to do the same thing. She also reverenced her husband as her lord in word and deed by obeying him in the matter of Egypt, which showed her trust in Alahayim;

1 Peter 3:5-6

For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in Alahayim, adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands: 6 Even as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord..

​

Rebecca reverencing Isaac and Abraham

• Rebecca reverenced her husband and her father in law as her lords. Rebecca also understood the power of being in unison with her head of household according to the proper order of Alahayim's hierarchy so that their prayers would not be hindered as 1Pet 3:7 states.

Jasher 26:1-5

1. AND in the fifty ninth year of the life of Isaac the son of Abraham, Rebecca his wife was still barren in those days. 2 And Rebecca said unto Isaac, truly I have heard, my lord, that thy mother Sarah was barren in her days until my lord Abraham, thy father, prayed for her and she conceived by him. 3. Now therefore stand up, pray thou also to Alahayim and He will hear thy prayer and remember us through his mercies. 4 And Isaac answered his wife Rebecca, saying, Abraham has already prayed for me to Alahayim to multiply his seed, now therefore this barrenness must proceed to us from thee. 5 And Rebecca said unto him, but arise now thou also and pray, that the Lord may hear thy prayer and grant me children, and Isaac hearkened to the words of his wife, and Isaac and his wife rose up and went to the land of Moriah to pray there and to seek the Lord, and when they had reached that place Isaac stood up and prayed to the Lord on account of his wife because she was barren.

• A righteous woman understands the power that is upon her head by her covering and being in unity that the prayers for the betterment of the household be not hindered.

Leah reverencing Jacob

• Leah reverenced Jacob through her good works out of affection for him;

Jubilees 36:22

And all her sons and his sons came to mourn over Leah his wife with him, and to comfort him regarding her, for he was lamenting her. 23. For he loved her exceedingly after Rachel her sister died; for she was perfect and upright in all her ways and honoured Jacob, and all the days that she lived with him he did not hear from her mouth a harsh word, for she was gentle and peaceable and upright and honourable. 24. And he remembered all her deeds which she had done during her life, and he lamented her exceedingly; for he loved her with all his heart and with all his soul.

• ​Wives, The golden rule will keep your household in order against all attacks of the enemy.
