AMPLIFIED 2015 | Luke 11:42 ¶ "But woe (judgment is coming) to you Pharisees, because you [self-righteously] tithe mint and rue and every [little] garden herb [tending to all the minutiae], and yet disregard and neglect justice and the love of God; but these are the things you should have done, without neglecting the others. [Lev 27:30; Mic 6:8] |
Bible Question (short): Should we give one tenth of our income? |
Question (full): On Tenth? (Luke 11:42) At bible study on Thursday night, the passage that was studied was Luke 11v37-46, the Six Woes. One thing that was brought up in the study was verse 42- "Woe to you Pharisees, because you give God a tenth of your mint, rue and all other kinds of garden herbs, but you neglect justice and the love of Gos. YOu should have practiced the latter without leaving the former undone." The questions that where asked from this were- Do you think we should be giving one tenth of our income to God? Yes or No How do you think the Pharisees got it wrong? Our answers from the study, went along the lines of- we should aim to give one tenth, so yes, and the Pharisees got it wrong, because they started giving one tenth as if it meant nothing, they where being dishonest in their giving. I was interested in knowing what others think of the questions and if you have anything other to add, or even if you disagree. |
