 12I fast twice in the week, I tithe everything that I acquire.

Rom. 7:9‑24• 9But I was alive apart from law once; but, the commandment having come, sin revived and I died,
 10and the commandment that [was] unto life, this was found to me unto death.
 11For sin having taken a point of attack by the commandment deceived me and by it slew [me].
 12So that the law is holy, and the commandment holy and just and good.
 13Did then the good become death to me? Let it not be; but sin, that it might appear sin, working out death to me by the good, that sin might become excessively sinful by the commandment.
 14For we know that the law is spiritual; but I am carnal, sold under sin.
 15For what I work out I own not; for I do not what I will, but what I hate, this I practice.
 16But if what I will not, this I practice, I consent to the law that [it is] right.
 17But now no longer am I working it out, but sin that dwelleth in me.
 18For I know that in me, that is in my flesh, no good dwelleth; for to will is present with me, but to work out the right [is] not;
 19for I practice not good which I will, but evil which I will not, this I do.
 20But if what I will not, this I practice, no longer am I working it out, but sin that dwelleth in me.
 21I find then the law, for me wishing to practice the right, that the evil is present with me.
 22For I delight in the law of God according to the inner man,
 23but I see a different law in my members warring against the law of my mind, and making me captive to the law of sin that is in my members.
 24Wretched man that I [am]! who shall deliver me out of this body of death? (Rom. 7:9‑24)
