Shareable Truths

Single-image summaries of key points. Made to be saved. Made to be shared.

What these are

These are single images that explain one important truth at a time.

They are meant to be saved to your phone or computer and shared with others.

Each one is a simple way of making a single point in a clear, memorable form. If a picture ever seems unclear, the words beside it explain exactly what it means.

The Meme Files

The same answers, in a form made for sharing. Each image makes one point — and the words beside it explain exactly what it means. Every one is answered in full on the Answers page.

Meme: a pondering raptor asks — if the home is the greatest mission field, and tithe can be paid to missions, does that mean I can pay tithe to myself?

Where the Syllogism Ends Up

An argument that proves too much proves nothing. If “the home is the greatest mission field” can redirect the tithe, the same logic delivers it straight to your own kitchen table — and an argument that ends in paying tithe to yourself has refuted itself. Full answer →

Meme: four-panel plan — 'Quote the Watson letter to prove she redirected tithe,' then 'Read the whole letter,' then twice: 'It says I would not advise that anyone make a practice of this'

Same Pen, Same Letter

The plan works right up until the letter gets read to the end. The same pages held up as the example contain the instruction — she would not advise that anyone make a practice of it — and you cannot keep her example while deleting her instruction. Full answer →

Meme: 'People be like' — rejecting 'Satan will use tithe to fracture the church' while approving 'Satan will appear as aliens from distant galaxies'

Selective About the Enemy’s Playbook

Strange, to expect the enemy to stage a deception from the skies while insisting he would never touch the tithe. He is not selective — the war runs on both fronts: the worship of God and the support of God’s work. Full answer →

Meme: expanding-brain image in four stages, from 'I return tithe to the storehouse' to 'I pay tithe to myself'

The Slippery Slope, Illustrated

Each step sounds more enlightened than the last, but the direction never changes: away from the storehouse and toward self. The last step was always the destination. Full answer →

Meme: woman yelling that Nehemiah reformed first, then commanded the tithe; a cat replies that Nehemiah's reform was repairing the storehouse and appointing treasurers

Nehemiah's Reform WAS the Storehouse

Nehemiah 13 is often cited as reform-before-tithe. But read the chapter: his reform was restoring the storehouse and appointing faithful treasurers so the tithe could come in — not a season of withholding. Full answer →

Meme: three identical Spider-Men labeled Withholding, Diverting, and Appropriating point at each other; caption: the storehouse, checking what actually arrived

Three Names, Same Result

Withholding, diverting, appropriating — the labels differ, but the storehouse's ledger records the same entry for all three: the tithe did not arrive. Full answer →

Meme: man at a table with a sign reading 'The one time God ruled directly on corrupt priests and the tithe, He said bring it in — change my mind'

God's Direct Ruling

Malachi is the one place God addressed corrupt priests and the tithe in the same breath. His instruction to the giver was not “withhold until they reform.” It was: bring it in. Full answer →

Meme: a muscular dog represents the 1901 members who showed up, took the floor, voted, and broke kingly power from within; a small crying dog says constituency sessions are worthless and reroutes his tithe

1901 Showed the Way

Real reform happened when members showed up, took the floor, and voted — breaking kingly power from within the system. Rerouting tithe from a distance has never once accomplished that. Full answer →

Meme: man in a winter coat once again asking for the verse — not the inference, the verse

The Verse. Not the Inference.

The storehouse position rests on direct statements of Scripture. The redirection case rests on inference stacked on inference. When the claim is this large, we are entitled to ask for the verse. Full answer →

Meme: a masked figure labeled 'new light on tithe for this unprecedented crisis' is unmasked as 'the same argument answered in 1905'

New Light, Old Argument

The “unprecedented crisis” framing is not new light. Pull off the mask and it is the same redirection argument that was raised — and answered — over a century ago. Full answer →

Meme: highway sign — straight ahead reads do what you can to correct the evil: vote, petition, take the floor; a car swerves onto the exit labeled defund the Levites

Correct the Evil — In the Right Lane

“Do what you can to correct the evil” has a lane: vote, petition, take the floor at constituency sessions. Defunding the working ministry is the off-ramp the counsel never pointed to. Full answer →
