Bible Question:
Thanks you for your answer to my question. I can see how tithing is not required by law but it is a blessing to the one who gives. Could you give me other bible references in the new testament that talk about tithing? |
Bible Answer: Read Luke 6:38- this scripture can be used in a lot of different ways, but the bottom line is giving. as you see all through Gods Holy word, we are to be givers just as Jesus was a giver/servant. so we give of our substance/money by tithing and giving in the offering according to how God has blessed us, but tithing we pay because we owe that to God it is a commandment from God that we pay our tithes. then He in turn blesses us for doing so. and God only ask for ten percent. but you are right it is a blessing to those who give, but it must be willingly and not grudgingly. also read 1 corinthians 9:6,7. and do be blessed my sister or brother. |
