SIMPLE, CLEAR AND CONCISE
Hebrews 7:8 is the tribe if Levi representing the Law of Moses tithing through Abraham to Melchisedec ... ABRAHAM TO MELCHISEDEC ... not a Christian tithing money to a church or modern day pastor. (See; Hebrews 7:9)
The Church of Jesus Christ does not have a command to be as Leivites representing the Law of Moses tithing to Melchisedec, which said Melchisedec is claimed to be the Church authorized to receive tithes claimed to be "tithing to Jesus in Heaven."
Hebrews 7:8 is not a type, shadow or an example to be followed by the New Testament Church in tithing. Hebrews 7:8 is clearly descriptive, not prescriptive. The Levites tithing to Melchisedec has NEVER been cited in God's Word as an example to follow.
In reality, God's purpose of Abraham's tithe was the Levites (in the loins of Abraham), the Law (Hebrews 7:11), tithing to Melchizedek proving the superiority of the Priesthood of Melchizedek over the Levites;
Hebrews 7:7 - "And without all contradiction the less is blessed of the better."
CONCLUSION
The transaction in Hebrews 7:8 accomplished what God needed it to accomplish. No further tithing is required, commanded, needed or is of any value.
