He Forgot Malachi 3:7

 

Malachi 3:7 clearly states that Malachi 3:10 must be performed and carried out according to the Law of Moses ("mine ordinances"), which tells us that money is NOT to be used for tithing, and if your tithe is in the form of money, it must be spent on your family and given to NO ONE ("bind up the money in thine hand" - Deuteronomy 14:25)...

In the Law of Moses, in Deuteronomy 14:26-27 it states "And thou shalt bestow that money for whatsoever thy soul lusteth after, for oxen, or for sheep, or for wine, or for strong drink, or for whatsoever thy soul desireth: and thou shalt eat there before the LORD thy God, and thou shalt rejoice, thou, and thine household, And the Levite that is within thy gates; thou shalt not forsake him; for he hath no part nor inheritance with thee."

Additionally; only ONE TENTH of the tithe was to be brought to the storehouse, which was in Jerusalem, NOT to a New Testament church...

Nehemiah 10:38 - "And the priest the son of Aaron shall be with the Levites, when the Levites take tithes: and the Levites shall bring up the tithe of the tithes unto the house of our God, to the chambers, into the treasure house."

THE FOUNDATION OF THE CHURCH

THE FOUNDATION OF THE CHURCH; does it include tithing?

The Bible tells us that the church is built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets;

Ephesians 2:19-20 - "Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God; And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;"

If tithing was part of that foundation of the New Testament church the apostles and prophets would have made that very clear in the Holy Spirit inspired scriptures that they wrote. In fact In the New Testament no Apostle ever instructed tithing, asked for a tithe, rebuked any person or church for not tithing, or received a tithe. Not one of them. The early church seen in the Book of Acts never tithed. We have no record of them doing so. In fact, The Book of Acts records this...

"Forasmuch as we have heard, that certain which went out from us have troubled you with words, subverting your souls, saying, Ye must be circumcised, and keep the law: to whom we gave NO such commandment:" - Acts 15:24

Tithing teachers often claim that "tithing was practiced before the law."

Whether or not tithing was practiced before the law, after the law it still remains CANCELED, DISANNULLED, ENDED. How does tithing, practiced before the law (the Law of Moses), prove that tithing is to be practiced after the law? It clearly does not. No scripture states that any New Testament Christian must tithe because Abraham did.

NOWHERE does the Bible, the Word of God instruct anyone to tithe because Jacob said he would tithe, or because Abraham tithed; such a command DOES NOT exist in God's Word. Hebrews 7:18 tells us; "For there is verily a disannulling of the commandment going before for the weakness and unprofitableness thereof."

No further tithing after Hebrews 7:18; Tithing is void, canceled, finished, weak, unprofitable, ended, disannulled, not required, AND IS NOT PART OF THE FOUNDATION OF THE NEW TESTAMENT CHURCH. The teaching of "New Testament tithing" of any kind is false doctrine.

Malachi 3:10; WRITTEN TO WHO?

Malachi 3:10; WRITTEN TO WHO?

Malachi 3:10; not written to the New Testament church, not commanding New Testament tithing, not commanding the tithing of money to anyone.

>> Written to...

1. To Israel - Malachi 1:1 - "The burden of the word of the LORD to Israel by Malachi."

2. To the corrupt priests of Israel - Malachi 1:6 - "A son honoureth his father, and a servant his master: if then I be a father, where is mine honour? and if I be a master, where is my fear? saith the LORD of hosts unto you, O priests, that despise my name. And ye say, Wherein have we despised thy name?"

3. To the corrupt priests of Israel - Malachi 2:1 - "And now, O ye priests, this commandment is for you."

4. To the biological sons of Jacob - Malachi 3:6 - "For I am the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed."

5. To the Nation of Israel under the Law of Moses, God's ordinances from the Law of Moses - Malachi 3:7 - "Even from the days of your fathers ye are gone away from mine ordinances, and have not kept them. Return unto me, and I will return unto you, saith the LORD of hosts. But ye said, Wherein shall we return?"

6. To the Nation of Israel under the Law of Moses - Malachi 4:4 - "Remember ye the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all Israel, with the statutes and judgments."

7. To a nation, to Israel, who Elijah the Prophet came from - Malachi 4:5 - "Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD:"

Not one word in the Book of Malachi supports any claim that Malachi 3:10 is instructing a Christian to hand over ten percent of their income to any church, minister or ministry. Tithing teachers who claim that it is are taking scripture out of context, out of audience context, and teaching false misleading doctrine and promoting deception.

No Christian can biblically fulfill Malachi 3:10 because it must be done under, and pursuant to the Law of Moses or it is done in sin; see Malachi 3:7 ("mine ordinances"), and 1 John 3:4 - "Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law."

>> Christians are not under the Law of Moses; 

"For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth." - Romans 10:4

"For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace." - Romans 6:14

"But now we are DELIVERED FROM THE LAW, that being dead wherein we were held; that we should serve in newness of spirit, and not in the oldness of the letter." - Romans 7:6

"Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith. But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster." - Galatians 3:24-25

"Forasmuch as we have heard, that certain which went out from us have troubled you with words, subverting your souls, saying, Ye must be circumcised, and keep the law: to whom we gave NO such commandment:" - Acts 15:24

BEST QUESTION TO ASK A TITHING TEACHER

BEST QUESTION TO ASK A TITHING TEACHER...

"Where does the Bible instruct a New Testament Christian to turn over ten percent of their money income to a church, minister or other ministry? Please provide Biblical chapter and verse."

They will not be able to provide any valid chapter or verse simply because there are none.

Case in point;

If they answer "Malachi 3:10;" FACT; Malachi 3:10 was written to the Nation of Israel under the Law of Moses, and can ONLY be obeyed under the Law of Moses; (see; Malachi 3:7, Malachi 4:4). The New Testament church is not the Nation of Israel, is not under the Law of Moses (see; Romans 6:14, Acts 15:24, Romans 7:6, Galatians 3:10-12) and has no command to tithe anything to anyone.

Also, Malachi 3:10, along with all commands to tithe, has been clearly canceled by Hebrews 7:18 being weak and without profit; 

Hebrews 7:18 - "For there is verily a disannulling of the commandment going before for the weakness and unprofitableness thereof."
