Book of Proverbs

The book of Proverbs is a book of God's ordained wisdom to humankind. It teaches us to work until the day we die and not to be slothful, otherwise you have nothing to eat. There are many verses that talks about being diligent and to leave an inheritance to your children's children so that they will not starve. Your future generations will be blessed. In the book of Malachi, it tells you to tithe 10% of your income to your local church to be blessed as it is God's money after all. Giving an offering is easy because there is not fixed % of the amount but tithing is not for everyone - only for the enlightened and those who want to give back to Jesus.
