The subject of money has been and probably will always be one of the most controversial and misunderstood subjects in the Body of Christ. Many of today's ministers are fearful of speaking on this subject, receiving tithes and offerings, or challenging their people in building programs, missions or outreach campaigns involving money. Why? First, I believe it has been passed down through decades of wrong teaching, spawned by the traditions of unspiritual men, secondly, because of the misuse and abuse of a few ministers over the past few years, and thirdly, because I believe that many ministers don't truly "study to shew thyself approved..." as the Bible instructs (See 2 Timothy 2:15). As a minister of three plus decades (at the writing of this book), I have never been one to shy away from controversial subjects just because individuals or groups of individuals have gotten off course or abused the truth. Religion is notorious for mocking what they don't understand. The Bible is not silent concerning the subject of money. More than 20% of what Jesus spoke about during His earthly ministry dealt with money. In the gospels alone, (Matthew, Mark, Luke, John) one out of every six verses deal with finances. Since the Bible IS NOT silent on this subject, then I refuse to bow down to the status-quo of today's religious, seeker friendly, lukewarm, don't rock the boat, stay away from controversial subjects, must be politically correct Christians. My prayer is for you the reader; first, that you will be anointed to hear the truth revealed in this book and second, that the truth you know and understand will set you free. Religious clutter and mindsets, misconceptions (things that keep us from conceiving) fallacies and delusions are coming to the light revealed in God's Word and losing their hold on your life. Every false teaching and man-made doctrine that has hindered your increase will be destroyed as you go further into this manuscript. We are about to embark on a journey where religious folks have dared to tread. HIS by choice, Dr. Don D Hughes
