Subject: Is tithing a command for chriatians? |
Bible Note: Thank you for your reply Vintage. Yes it is true that we rob God when what all we have is His and we hoard it all for ourselves Psa 24:1 explains this, "The earth is the LORD'S, and all it contains, The world, and those who dwell in it." -as does the verse you quoted from Malachi. We belong to the Lord ourselves. Because we have been bought with a price. But still, we are not under the rule of one tenth for tithes as was commanded in the OT. keliy |
