1 | Is tithing for today? | Lev 27:30 | jg8ball | 427 | ||
Mal 3:8 "Will a man rob God? Yet you rob me. "But you ask, 'How do we rob you?' "In tithes and offerings." Mar 12:41-44 Jesus sat down opposite the place where the offerings were put and watched the crowd putting their money into the temple treasury. Many rich people threw in large amounts. But a poor widow came and put in two very small copper coins, worth only a fraction of a penny. Calling his disciples to him, Jesus said, "I tell you the truth, this poor widow has put more into the treasury than all the others. They all gave out of their wealth; but she, out of her poverty, put in everything--all she had to live on." |

2 | Is tithing for today? | Lev 27:30 | The Berean | 41927 | ||
Jesus never commanded us to tithe as new believers...scripture in the NT clearly states that we ought to give freely and proportionately. You will never find a NT believer after the resurrection in the bible who tithed. God's will is that you love him and love your neighbor...you should be willing to help your brother/sister with all you have, not necessarily 10 percent. | ||||||

I agree completely. I use the term Tithe (probably incorrectly) to mean that which you give back to God - which would be whatever amount you can joyfully give. Traditionally, this amount is 10 percent based on OT and that it literally means a tenth. | ||||||
