Subject: Verifying following the of the law |
Bible Note: Do you have a minister that preaches tithing? That's usually the ones that conveniently overlook Jesus' words: "till all be fulfilled." That Christians are no longer bound by the Mosaic Law is also clear from Paul's writings, such as "Christ is the end of the Law, so that everyone exercising faith may have righteousness. Sin must not be master over you, seeing that you are not under law but under undeserved kindness."—Rom. 10:4; 6:14. The principles of the Law are perfect and still apply and Paul even stated specifically that we need to abstain from idols and blood, part of the Law. The Law of Christ is a law based on freedom - God has always purposed to have his intelligent creatures serve him out of love. Don't let your minister take your love away - if you can't give 10 percent (of your time, energy and resources) - don't, but if you can give more - by all means do, just make sure it doesn't pay his mortgage!
