1. God forbids the tithing of money, if the tithe is in the form of money it MUST NOT be given to anyone, one must BIND IT to their hand. Speaking of the tithe temporarily converted to money for purposes of transportation, God's word tells us...
"Then shalt thou turn it into money, and BIND UP THE MONEY in thine hand, and shalt go unto the place which the Lord thy God shall choose:" - Deuteronomy 14:25. In other words, God did not want anyone paying a tithe in the form of money, NO ONE WAS TO DO SO. Doing so was forbidden.
2. The Word of God also tells us...
"For I testify again to every man that is circumcised [a keeper of the Law], that he is a debtor to do the whole law." - Galatians 5:3
And...
"For whoever shall keep the whole law, and yet stumble in one point, he is guilty of all." - James 2:10
If you pay a tithe in the form of money, you are in violation of Deuteronomy 14:25 and are in sin, YOU HAVE VIOLATED THE WHOLE LAW.
Also...
"For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them." - Galatians 3:10
3. IF YOU ARE PAYING A TITHE IN THE FORM OF MONEY, YOU ARE IN VIOLATION OF GOD'S WORD (Deuteronomy 14:25) AND HAVE BROUGHT A CURSE (PUNISMENT) ON YOURSELF.
GOD SAYS "USE TITHE MONEY TO BUY WINE AND WHATEVER YOUR HEART DESIRES TO BUY WITH IT."
If we are supposed to be tithing money, or tithing at all for that matter, as tithing teachers claim; why are we not supposed to be doing what God says with the tithe money? Like this...
1. Do not pay the tithe in the form of money. Keep the money in your hand (bind it to your hand) until you...
2. Buy wine with it.
3. Buy strong drink (harder liqueur) with it.
4. Buy livestock and other food.
5. Buy whatever you desire, whatever you lust after.
6. Share what you buy with a Levite and your family.
7. Only convert your tithe money back to fruits, vegetables and clean live stock, etc., at the location you will share it with a Levite if it is too far to transport it in the form God says it is to paid in.
8. Eat your tithe with the Levite.
9. Learn to fear and respect the Lord by doing one through eight above.
>> Why don't tithing teachers tell their faithful tithers this?...
> ref.; Deuteronomy 14:22-27
22 Thou shalt truly tithe all the increase of thy seed, that the field bringeth forth year by year.
23 And thou shalt eat before the Lord thy God, in the place which he shall choose to place his name there, the tithe of thy corn, of thy wine, and of thine oil, and the firstlings of thy herds and of thy flocks; that thou mayest learn to fear the Lord thy God always.
24 And if the way be too long for thee, so that thou art not able to carry it; or if the place be too far from thee, which the Lord thy God shall choose to set his name there, when the Lord thy God hath blessed thee:
25 Then shalt thou turn it into money, and bind up the money in thine hand, and shalt go unto the place which the Lord thy God shall choose:
26 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,
27 And the Levite that is within thy gates; thou shalt not forsake him; for he hath no part nor inheritance with thee.
