Subject: Why is tithing yet preached today? |
Bible Note: I personally don't thithe. I give with a cheerful heart cf 2 Cor 9:7. I do however take 10 percent of the top. The titheing message that a lot of people teach today I feel is wrong. It is like you are forced to or its a law you must abide to. That is not true in the new testament. We are to give cheerfully. Jesus preached this through out his minisrty. We are to be blessed in giving so I do like what the pastor at my church says "If you are not blessed don't give. And is you don't give chearfully keep your money, God doesn't need your money He is God." Preachers who preach you must tithe and give 10 persent is putting legalism in the church. At least that is what I believe. |
