2 | I need to know what is the first fruits | Prov 3:9 | Praise Be To God | 142525 | ||
The firstfruits is "the best." It is not "Firstfruits vs. Tithing," FIRSTFRUITS IS TITHING. You give God the first and best 10 per cent of all your increase. You always give God your best; not your leftovers. Also, firstfruits refers to Jesus as being "firstfruits of the dead," being raised to life. (See I Corinthians 15:20). Janae |

3 | Is tithe 3.33 or ten percent? | Prov 3:9 | greentwiga | 142528 | ||
I was reading on tithing in the Old testament and was puzzled. It seemed that only once every three years did the tithes get given away. The other two years, it was eaten by the tithers. Furthermore, the tithe of that year was to be split among the "church" (the Levites), the aliens, fatherless and widows. That works out to be a 3.33 percent tithe per year. Deut 14:22-28. This 3.33 percent tithe goes along with Numbers 31:30 where a 2 percent tithe of the spoils of war. Is there another passage on tithing that states ten percent each year? | ||||||
4 | Is tithe 3.33 or ten percent? | Prov 3:9 | Praise Be To God | 142529 | ||
