Isn't it strange they're promoting (one version of) the Ten Commandments, when Jesus said forget that Jewish history shit, the only commandment is Love thy neighbor as thyself.
They are blessed because they get to cash the tithe checks. Also, they are blessed because they said they're sons. Their son's are emailing from Nigeria.

Oh I agree. Tithing is what gives these megachurch pastors their big houses, expensive suits, smooth-as-butter cars and 'missions' to New and Exotic Lands... to convert the locals of course. After the safari. And the tours. And the beach. They sure didn't get the money from the lottery. The tax benefits of being the pastor of your own church are pretty sweet too.
