@GetYourBlinkOn You got it right. I have no problem when people tithe, but i do have a problem when they do it ignorantly. If God has put it in their hearts to do it then it should be done knowing that we are not under the law and not under obligation to do so. The truth is that our obligation is to the poor and needy, the brethren first and then the world. Our giving should be done all in love and cheerfully without hassle or obligation

The Tithe was part of the "handwritten requirements," "CONTRARY" to us, the "Law of Sin and death," the Old Covenant Law given through Moses TO ISRAEL. ALL 613 were nailed to the Cross w/Jesus. What part of "OBSOLETE" don't people get? Not only that, but to even teach tithing from Malachi proves the ignorance of those who are teaching. It states, "tithes and offerings," which, when you do the math, ads up to approx 33%. Oh, and if you RECEIVED the tithe, it was because you had no inheritance.

@smitty927 Fine..Keep paying Tithing like a fool. It's not my money.
-
@SacredSocietyAP So you lump all churches and preachers into one category? If you presume to be intelligent, then use that head God gave you and think. You should know that not all churches and preachers are the same. Most use the money for good. Lumping a group all together like you have is hateful! And get off your high horse, you know nothing about what I have or have not read.

@smitty927 No..I am exactly right. Maybe you should do some research. Hate speech is when you have preachers like Creflo Dollar saying they wish they could just line people up and shoot them if they don't pay tithing. If you think I'm wrong you have never read the Bible. Maybe you should watch the video TITHING IS NOT CHRISTIAN DOCTRINE by Russell Earl Kelly, Phd which will fully explain all this since you are too lazy to read the Bible for yourself.

@ellimist6 2) With no free will, we are not truly loving God, but merely being "robots". That isn't a relationship, that isn't love! So while giving us free will, God opened the door 2 not choose Him. By not choosing Him, we choose a life of sin only. Back to God & sending Jesus 4 us... God knew that the only way to truly wash away the sin He cannot be near was to have a perfect sacrifice. Jesus is also known as the Lamb of God, He is perfect & being such, was the only way to "wipe the slate".
-
@ellimist6 1) Actually, being that God is perfect, nothing less than a perfect sacrifice would do to cleanse our sins. There are so many things to say to all you spout: God is all knowing, so He knew the troubles that were to come, but He is SO full of love, he did it anyway so He could share His love with us! Kinda like people getting married and having kids. We know it will not be all roses, but we have kids anyway. Then why not make it so there is no sin? Then there is no free will...

@cupwithhandles You could not be any more uninformed and incorrect!!
-
@SacredSocietyAP You could not be more wrong!! But keep on with your unfounded hate speech!
-
@rootbeerforever You could not be more wrong! Most churches are struggling to make it!! Putting God's money into a good Bible based church is what should be done. Most good Bible based churches will help those who need it. They will also help their people by keeping their doors open. Our walk with God has its steps in belonging and faithfully going to a Bible based church. I really hope no one does trust your statement!! That could really hurt some good churches!!!
You can tell where your heart is by where you spend your time, treasure and talents. However, the tithe (tenth) was part of the old covenant. It is not found in the new covenant. Giving is expressing love. God is love. If the living God lives in you, you give because you love God and you love people. It isn't a thing of obligation it's something straight from the Father's heart

i completely agree with this video. as a christian i believe that a lot of us won't give up 10% to a God that can move mountains. and a lot of the people who do give that 10% don't think twice about the things they can do to better the world with their time. its not about the precentage but just having faith that God can do more with your time and money then you could.
