1 | Christ did not do away with the tithe | Gen 14:20 | BradK | 217787 | ||
Hello saved, While I agree that titithing is not NT, I wouldn't call it a heretical doctrine! What leads you to this conclusion? Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |

2 | Christ did not do away with the tithe | Gen 14:20 | savedsince1980 | 217789 | ||
Maybe I should have said that teaching tithing is heretical. If an individual's conscience tells him/her to tithe (give a tenth), then that's not heresy. What is heresy is teaching that others should tithe. This is equivalent to what Jesus said in Matt. 23:4...For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men's shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers. (KJV) The modern-day Pharisees, often trained in seminaries and bible colleges, spout tithing as if it's straight from the Lord when, in fact, it is a tradition taught to them by men/women who missed the whole point of tithing in the first place. (Reread Gen. 14:20 carefully.) | ||||||
