Hello 12pvchecks, Welcome to the Forum. Without a context your question is a little difficult to answer. The terms can be briefly defined as follows: 1. First-fruits — The first-fruits of the ground were offered unto God just as the first-born of man and animals. The law required, (1.) That on the morrow after the Passover Sabbath a sheaf of new corn should be waved by the priest before the altar (Lev. 23:5, 6, 10, 12; 2:12). 2. Tithe — a tenth of the produce of the earth consecrated and set apart for special purposes. The dedication of a tenth to God was recognized as a duty before the time of Moses. Abraham paid tithes to Melchizedek (Gen. 14:20; Heb. 7:6); and Jacob vowed unto the Lord and said, “Of all that thou shalt give me I will surely give the tenth unto thee.” 3. Offering — an oblation, dedicated to God. Thus Cain consecrated to God of the first-fruits of the earth, and Abel of the firstlings of the flock (Gen. 4:3, 4). Under the Levitical system different kinds of offerings are specified, and laws laid down as to their presentation. These are described under their distinctive names. The term "sowing money" is popular among the WOF teachers, but is foreign to scripture. 2 Cor. 9:10 tells us: "10 Now He who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will supply and multiply your seed for sowing and increase the harvest of your righteousness;" Could you possibly further define your question and relate a specific situation to which you are either familiar with or dealing presently? Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
