Bible Question: I am currently looking for a home church. The question is: where do I pay my tithe? Is it the same if I give to radio broadcasts? |
Bible Answer: Some clarifications, is tithing for you is ten percent of your income or love offering. If you are talking about ten percent, tithing is not a requirements for Christian today, there is no single teaching of Christ that will require anyone to give tithes but love offering. You cannot find any singel scene in the bible that Christ commanded anyone to give tithes to HIM. Tithes is included in the law of moses, and according to paul it cannot justify us: Ac 13:39 And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses. Authority and commandments of receiving tithes was given to the levites not for me not for you not for any pastors of today: Heb 7:5 And verily they that are of the sons of Levi, who receive the office of the priesthood, have a commandment to take tithes of the people according to the law, that is, of their brethren, though they come out of the loins of Abraham: If you are talking about love offering, you can give your offering by helping others. If you can find your home church then give to them what purposes of your heart, not ten percent, nor 20 percent but in what purposes of the heart. God love cheerful giver. 2Co 9:7 Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver. God bless, Johnny |
