l honestly believe as believer that we should tithe , we are indirectly stealing from God if we do not.... From these tithes you must give the LORD's portion to Aaron the priest. (Whole Chapter: Numbers 18 In context: Numbers 18:27-29),Be sure to set aside a tenth of all that your fields produce each year. (Whole Chapter: Deuteronomy 14 In context: Deuteronomy 14:21-23) So for us to move the hand of God we have to tithe. |

Capemimi, I can understand your view, however we are NOT under Law , but under grace ( Rom. 6:14). Further, "For Christ is the end of the Law for righteousness to everyone who believes" (Rom. 10:4). Specifically, Numbers 18 in context, is prescribing the duties of the Levites, under the law, while Deuteronomy 14 is dealing with clean and unclean animals. Surely you're not a Levite? I believe the NT prescription for giving is quite explicit. What would be your understanding of 2 Cor. 9, specifically vs.7, "Each one must do just as he has purposed in his heart, not grudgingly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver." While I believe giving is important and honoring to God, we are not under the stringent compulsion of the OT! Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
