Internet Bible Study - Chapter 17

CHAPTER 17 - POLLUTED OFFERINGS
Just as there are acceptable offerings, there are also unacceptable offerings. The reference scripture outlines several attributes that can render our gifts unacceptable to the Lord: polluted attitudes, polluted content, lack of obedience and deceptive giving practices.
Reference Scripture:
Malachi 1: 1 – 14 (polluted offerings)
Supporting Scriptures:
Leviticus 10: 1 – 2 (Nadab and Abihu – strange fire)
Proverbs 3:9 (first fruit)
Deuteronomy 23: 18 ( wages of prostitution not an acceptable offering)
Matthew 26:15 (Judas betrays Jesus for 30 pieces of silver)
Matthew 27: 6 (It is against the law to put blood money into treasury)
Leviticus 22: 17 – 25 (lame sacrifices forbidden)
1 Samuel 15: 22 – 24 ( obedience is better than sacrifice)
Acts 5: 1 – 10 (Ananias and Sapphira)
Malachi 1: 14 (cursed is the cheat)
