Subject: Tithing before Mosaic Law |
Bible Note: My point is that, just because somebody (even Abram) did something before the Law it doesn't mean that it is something that Christian believers should be doing today. I could name a long list of things that Abram did that we don't do today. The foundation for tithing is extremely weak. |
