1 | Tithe to those in need...Or the church ? | Deut 14:28 | jr8 | 106640 | ||
Good morning...Yes another new kid on the block. I have been reading the forum for a few weeks and just have to get involved. Being a beliver for years but just recently began to seek and study. Now questions arise daily and I am allways looking for other believers to share opinions with. In regards to Titheing. Is it titheing if I take my 10th and give it to those in need as opposed to the church. Deuteronomy 14, 28 reads : "At the end of every third year bring the tithe of all your crops and store it in the nearest town. 29 Give it to the Levites, who have no inheritance among you, as well as to the foreigners living among you, the orphans, and the widows in your towns, so they can eat and be satisfied. Then the LORD your God will bless you in all your work. May god bless all Thanks Calvin |

2 | Tithe to those in need...Or the church ? | Deut 14:28 | Makarios | 106651 | ||
Greetings Calvin, The very spirit of tithing in the Church (or the early Church, at least) is not to accumulate worldly wealth for itself, but only to give to those who are in need: "And they were selling their possessions and belongings and distributing the proceeds to all, as any had need." Acts 2:45 [ESV] And I believe that this is the basis for what tithing in the New Testament should be about. Blessings to you, Makarios |
