1 | Tithing question | Mal 3:10 | oldironman | 94082 | ||
If, instead of giving 10 percent to a church, I give it to organizations typical of what churches support, like childrens foundations, foodbanks, etc., is that considered tithing in the eyes of the lord? | ||||||
2 | Tithing question | Mal 3:10 | GeorJoy | 94083 | ||
Mal 3:10 Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it. And what is "the storehouse of the Lord?" Some would say it is the Church. If it is a church that is serving the comunity needs, both physical and spiritual, I tend to agree. Others might say it is any orginization that does "what they consider the work of the Lord." I disagree. For the work of the Lord is not only to feed the hungry, take care of the children and widows, but to spread the word of salvation to all; not only to feed the flesh, but to feed the hungry spirit with the living word of God. Remember what it said in Mal 3:10, "...that there may be meat in mine house"? His house is the Church. You make the determination for yourself. Below are all the scriptures in reference to tything. Gen_14:20; Lev_27:30; Lev_27:31; Lev_27:32; Num_18:24; Num_18:26; Num_18:28; Deu_12:6; Deu_12:11; Deu_12:17; Deu_14:22; Deu_14:23; Deu_14:28; Deu_26:12; 2Ch_31:5; 2Ch_31:6; 2Ch_31:12; Neh_10:37; Neh_10:38; Neh_12:44; Neh_13:5; Neh_13:12; Amo_4:4; Mal_3:8; Mal_3:10; Mat_23:23; Luk_11:42; Luk_18:12; Heb_7:5; Heb_7:6; Heb_7:8; Heb_7:9; I used to feel that if I were sharing with others what I could, It was just as good as tything. My scriptural study concerning tything enlightened me to my ignorance. George |
