Subject: Tithe vs Debts |
Bible Note: Hello wordoer, I think the question has been amply discussed by others'comments. You're right, "oversimplistic" did not mean to imply unscriptural. I'm always careful to not just throw a verse out there (like Mal. 3:10), neglecting context or without providing an explanation. My point in referencing 2 Cor. 8 and 9 was to focus on the primary NT teaching regarding giving. The terms "tithing" and "giving" are not synonymous! One is a requirement of the law, the other is based on grace:-) I hope that clarifies. Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
