Hey Upset,
You are welcome to disagree with any post on my site and to make any arguments you wish to prove your points but you aren’t welcome to insult, abuse or accuse anyone in the process.

For the record, if Jesus had said anything about tithing other than “it is no longer a principle to follow” – or something to that effect – we would have good reason to disbelieve the Bible. His intent was not to repeat everything in the NT that was well established in the Old.

Horrible Post: Show me where Jesus said ANYTHING about Tithe or Money besides “Give to Caeser what is Caesar’s….”
Here how it goes, this article to me looks like you want money. It doesnt matter what you wanted to say.
Let me break it down what God wants and how we get here:
- Adam Sinned – Holy Spirit LEFT
- The Law was created
- Jesus came to earth – Spirit Rested- SAVED BY GRACE.
Nothing and I mean NOTHING can get you closer to God, it was finished on Calvary.. We keep putting HUMAN characteristics on God, like he needs ANY money. We are not saved by ANY WORKS.
I cant stand when “Christians” post things like this and hell fire…
STUDY TO SHOW YOURSELF APPROVED!!!!
THANK GOD your sins are forgiven….

Hey Sally,
Thanks for the visit and the comment and I agree with what you say. It is logical.

I think there are a lot of well meaning people, and very good Christians, who don’t see it this way, but they do give a tithe or more consistently.

I don’t think they articulate good arguments for their approach to giving and telling anyone there are good reasons not too tithe without looking into all the details of a persons’ financial situation or explaining very clearly the conditions under which tithing doesn’t apply is too open ended for me.

Suggesting tithing was rescinded at the cross doesn’t help either. We are responsible for our finances and the way we handle money still reflects on our relationship to God.

Thanks again for the visit.
