AMPLIFIED 2015 | Matthew 23:23 ¶ "Woe to you, [self-righteous] scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you give a tenth (tithe) of your mint and dill and cumin [focusing on minor matters], and have neglected the weightier [more important moral and spiritual] provisions of the Law: justice and mercy and faithfulness; but these are the [primary] things you ought to have done without neglecting the others. |
Subject: Is tithing just O.T. or N.T. as well? |
Bible Note: I see that you are still mind set on building a thread. It is quite obvious you are not a tither. I am. Now you want to take a stand and have me "prove" that tithe is the teaching of Christ, but not only to you, but now you want to include the members of this forum also! What you sow is what you reap, do you want to nickel and dime the Lord, and receive a nickel and dime blessing from your tithing! Once again, you stated that tithing was under the law of Moses, I'm saying Abraham was before Moses, and he tithe. Malachi 3:8-12, says will a man rob God? yet you rob me. "But you ask, 'How do we rob you?'(sound familiar),In tithes and offerings. and it goes on to mention the blessings that will come. Now a tithe is a tenth of all of your income before you spend any of it, it belongs to the Lord. Read Haggi 2:5-9. verse 8 says that the silver and gold belongs to the Lord. Leviticus 27:30, the tithe is holy Psalms 2:6-8, God gave everything to Jesus. All that is on the earth and in the earth, now this is a true saying, if we are to tithe to God, and God gave everything to Jesus, who are we tithing to! How does tithing prove you put God first? Tithing means that you give "the first" ten percent of your wealth, before you spend anything, you're obident to His principle. Time and space prevents me from posting all the principle of tithing. Jesus came to fulfill the law, not abolish it. God bless and thanks for all of your replies, continue to be a blessing to others. |
