Subject: Can you please explain tithing? |
Bible Note: Hi again jl, in my response to you I asked if you believe the command to tithe is still relevant. That was before I saw this post, sorry. Well, you do not believe the tithe is still commanded, so the last part of my question in the previous post still stands. Can you give scriptural support for your beleif? I don't mean a single verse taken out of context, but actual biblical teaching that supports your belief here. P.S., always remember context. It is dangerous to take a single verse and attempt to make meaning of it out of the context in which it is provided and the wider teaching of the word of God. I in no way intend to accuse you of doing this on purpose so don't be offended by my next comment. Refer to the book of Matthew chapter four. You will see Satan himself attempting to use the very words of scripture out of context in order to decieve the Lord. Interestingly, the Lord does not attempt to debate with Satan; He simply provides more scripture in order to put the devils qote into context and therefore provide truth and meaning. With this in mind, please never attempt to answer another's question with a single verse. With love, Jeff |
