Tithers and tithing teachers, in their desperation to keep tithing continued into the New Testament often make the foolish claim that "nothing in the New Testament tells us not to tithe." In fact, the New Testament does clearly put and end to tithing (see comments below). But, in regards to the fools claim of the New Testament "not putting an end to tithing therefore it should continue;" why haven't these commandments been ended also? Why do we not obey them? Are they to continue, why only tithing?...
Other Old Testament Laws that Were Not Specifically Repealed in the New Testament...
Deuteronomy 23:2 – Don’t let illegitimate children in the Assembly of God.
Deuteronomy 25:5-10 – If your brother dies, you have to marry his wife so she can have a son.
Deuteronomy 25:11-12 – If a woman hurts a man’s testicles, you should cut off her hand
Deuteronomy 21: 20-21 – You can beat your slave within an inch of his life.
Leviticus 15:19 – A woman must be quarantined for 7 days if she’s on her period.
Leviticus 19:19 – Don’t mix cotton with polyester in your clothes.
Leviticus 21:5 – Ministers can’t shave their head or their beard.
Leviticus 21:16-23 – No one with a defect can approach the altar of God.
Numbers 8:24 – Ministers can only serve if they are older than 25, and the can’t serve more than 25 years.
Leviticus 20:9 – Rebellious children are to be put to death.
ARE THE ABOVE COMMANDMENTS TO CONTINUE INTO THE NEW TESTAMENT ALONG WITH TITHING? Why not? ...nothing in the New Testament specifically ends any requirement in that list. If tithing has not been put to an end, why hasn't Deuteronomy 23:2, Deuteronomy 25:5-10, Deuteronomy 25:11-12, etc?
TITHING HAS IN FACT CLEARLY BEEN ENDED BY THE NEW TESTAMENT;
HEBREWS CHAPTER SEVEN...
What is DISANNULLED? What is WEAK? What is UNPROFITABLE? These three...
1. The Levitical Priesthood (which could bring perfection [salvation] TO NO ONE, Hebrews 7:11).
2. The Law of Moses relative to New Testament Christians who are NOT UNDER THE LAW (Romans 6:14, Acts 15:24).
3. Tithing, which is of the law of Moses (Hebrews 7:5, Numbers 18:21-24, Matthew 23:23).
In Hebrews Chapter Seven tithing is mentioned 7 times, verses number; 2, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9 and 9 again, focusing CLEARLY ON TITHING, and while proving the superiority of Christ's priesthood, ALSO places tithing (along with the rest of the law of Moses) in a position of INFERIORITY and declares...
ALL THREE ARE WEAK, ALL THREE ARE UNPROFITABLE, AND ALL THREE ARE DISANNULLED (CANCELED)...INCLUDING TITHING.
"For there is verily a disannulling of the commandment going before for the weakness and unprofitableness thereof." - Hebrews 7:18
