ANSWER TO COMMENTS

Many times we hear comments, claims and memes from people who can't show us scripture instructing a Christian to tithe. These people often rely on foolish comments and slogans like "tithing gets God involved in your finances," or "tithing proves you trust God," "tithing is part of God's plan for your life," "tithing is not about salvation but it IS about maximizing your relationship with God," "tithing's not a debt you owe, it's a seed you sow." None of these claims have any Biblical bases.

Since they can't do so, can't produce scripture, they will often try to rely on unbiblical claims and man-made arguments such as...

Comment; "Is it a sin to tithe?"

>> Answer; If you're "tithing" based on the Law of Moses, as an example; Malachi 3:10 / Malachi 3:7 / Malachi 4:4, according to the Apostle Paul in Galatians 3:1-4 you are ...

"O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you? This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith? Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh [BY THE LAW OF MOSES, WORKS OF THE LAW]? Have ye suffered so many things in vain? if it be yet in vain."

So, you tell us; is it a sin to tithe? A better question would be; are you foolish and bewitched having been fooled into a non-existent requirement to tithe?? If you are tithing money to a church, a pastor or anyone else believing you must do so, YOU ARE FOOLISH AND BEWITCHED. The Bible in Hebrews 7:18 says that tithing was ENDED along with the need to have a Levite stand between you and God as a Priest, Jesus is now our eternal High Priest and JESUS DOES NOT NEED YOUR TITHE...

Hebrews 7:18-20 - "For there is verily a disannulling of the commandment going before for the weakness and unprofitableness thereof. For the law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope did; by the which we draw nigh unto God. And inasmuch as not without an oath he was made priest:" 

Comment; "Where does the Bible tell us to stop tithing?"

>> Answer; Who is "us?" Where did God command "us" New Testament Christians to START tithing in the first place? NOWHERE. Has tithing ended? Yes, here; Hebrews 7:18 - "For there is verily a disannulling of the commandment going before for the weakness and unprofitableness thereof."

Comment; "I tithe because I'm not under the law."

>> Answer; That's like saying "I sacrifice animals for my sins because I'm not under the law." Also, the Law (Law of Moses) is the only place where God has commanded anyone to tithe, and it was a command to the physical Nation of Israel, not the New Testament Church. Tithing was a national requirement on the Nation of Israel, not an individual requirement on anyone. Additionally, the Bible makes it clear; the commend to tithe was a matter of the Law of Moses, not a New Testament requirement...

Hebrews 7:5 - "And verily they that are of the sons of Levi, who receive the office of the priesthood, have a commandment to take tithes of the people according to the law, that is, of their brethren, though they come out of the loins of Abraham:" ..."ACCORDING TO THE LAW" Christians are not under the Law; "For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace." - Romans 6:14 

Comment; "Will I be sent to hell for tithing?"

>> Answer; No one has said you will. You also won't be sent to hell necessarily for being stupid and ignorant. If you're paying a tithe of money to a pastor or church, you're being robbed. You won't be sent to hell for being robbed either. But, are you going to spend your entire life being robbed and lied to? We hope and pray not!

Comment; "There is no chapter and verse that says you shall not give a tithe."

>> Answer; The Bible does not say that you can't eat cow manure either. Do you eat cow manure? Why not? The Bible nowhere says "stop eating cow manure." We do NOT live by what the Bible does NOT say, there are a million things it does not say. It DOES SAY the tithe requirement has ended, canceled and no longer needed. See Hebrews 7:18. The Bible also tells us that God never instructed Gentiles to tithe anything to anyone; "He sheweth his word unto Jacob, his statutes and his judgments unto ISRAEL. He hath NOT dealt so with any nation: and as for his judgments, they have not known them. Praise ye the Lord." - Psalm 147:19-20

Additionally; In the New Covenant, no Apostle ever taught tithing, asked for a tithe, rebuked any person or church for not tithing, or received a tithe for themselves. Not one of them. The early church (i.e. Book of Acts) NEVER tithed. We have NO record of them doing so, not a single verse stating that required tithing was practiced in the early church. If tithing was a New Testament requirement and practiced as such it would have been recorded in the New Testament as being practiced. There is no such record.

Comment; "Jesus never said don't tithe."

>> Answer; Jesus never said New Testament Christians, the Church, are commanded to tithe, either. Why would Jesus tell us to stop doing something He never told us to do in the first place? Again; we do NOT live by what the Bible does NOT say, there are a million things it does NOT say. It DOES SAY tithing is ended, canceled and no longer needed (Hebrews 7:18). Claiming that you tithe "because Jesus did not tell us to stop tithing" is preaching from silence. A very bad idea!

Comment; "I don't pay a tithe, I give a tithe."

>> Answer; You can't "give a tithe," you can't "give" what you don't own. The tithe was the personal property of the Levites, it is their inheritance, GOD GAVE IT TO THEM, they own it, it was NEVER taken from them and given to a church, a pastor or anyone else. See Numbers 18:21-24.

Comment; "It's my money; what do you care if we pay a tithe?"

>> Answer; we don't care what you do with your money. But as noted above; are you going to be robbed and lied to forever? We are here to help people become free from the lie of monetary tithing (requirement of tithing of money) to false teachers who are robbing you NOT ONLY of your money, but also of your freedom in Christ to give as God leads you to do so. Would you not be free from the modern lie of tithing, set free by the truth?!

Comment; "Why is it wrong to give a tithe?"

>> Answer; Right or wrong often has nothing to do with it. Again; You can't "give a tithe," you can't "give" what you don't own. The tithe was the personal property of the Levites, it is their inheritance, they own it, GIVEN TO THEM BY GOD. The tithe was NEVER taken from them and given to a pastor or anyone else, including you. See Numbers 18:21-24

CONCLUSION; It would be wiser if you people making such comments base your beliefs and actions on what scripture says and heeded the words of Acts 17:11... 

These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the SCRIPTURES daily, whether those things were so.

And, this...

"THY WORD is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path." - Psalm 119:105

YOU CAN'T DISPROVE THE FACTS

FACT...

The Law of Moses is still valid and in affect today. Christians are not under the Law of Moses, ("For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace." - Romans 6:14), but that has not ended, ceased or abolished the Law of Moses, or put an end to the authority of the Law of Moses. Is earth still here? Yes, therefore the Law of Moses is still alive and in affect. Christians do not need to be under the Law of Moses, of which we are not, in order for the Law of Moses to be alive and valid.

PROOF SCRIPTURE...

Matthew 5:17-19 - "Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven."

FACT...

Tithing was a matter of the Law of Moses. That is to say that God's command to tithe was established by the Law, regulated by the Law, described by the Law, administered by the Law, organized by the Law, given to the Levites by God stated through the Law. Outside of the Law of Moses there is no command given to anyone to tithe anything in neither the Old or New Testament.

PROOF SCRIPTURE...

Hebrews 7:5 - "And verily they that are of the sons of Levi, who receive the office of the priesthood, have a commandment to take tithes of the people according to the law, that is, of their brethren, though they come out of the loins of Abraham:"

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?"

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."

FACT...

The ownership of the tithe was given to the Levites, the tithe was their personal property, their inheritance given to them by divine decree, they own it. The tithe remains so according to the Law of Moses and Jesus Christ until heaven and earth passes away. Nowhere in God's word has God taken the tithe from the Levites and given it to any pastor, any minister, any organization in any way shape or form. No church, no pastor, no minister, no organization, no person has the right, permission or authority to ask for the tithe, demand a tithe or the right to receive a tithe. There exists NO SCRIPTURE where God has taken the tithe from the Levites and given it to anyone, or given anyone the right to receive a tithe...NOWHERE, NO ONE. 

PROOF SCRIPTURE...

Numbers 18:20-22 - "And the LORD spake unto Aaron, Thou shalt have no inheritance in their land, neither shalt thou have any part among them: I am thy part and thine inheritance among the children of Israel. And, behold, I have given the children of Levi all the tenth in Israel for an inheritance, for their service which they serve, even the service of the tabernacle of the congregation."

Numbers 18:24 - "But the tithes of the children of Israel, which they offer as an heave offering unto the LORD, I have given to the Levites to inherit: therefore I have said unto them, Among the children of Israel they shall have no inheritance."

CONCLUSION...

Any New Testament minister, or organization, or anyone else taking tithes from a Christian (or from anyone) is a thief and a deceiver clearly taking what is not theirs. They are stealing. 

PROOF SCRIPTURE...

If you steal tithes govern by the Law, then you can face the punishment of the Law.

Leviticus 6:1-6 - "And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, If a soul sin, and commit a trespass against the LORD, and lie unto his neighbour in that which was delivered him to keep, or in fellowship, or in a thing taken away by violence, or hath deceived his neighbour; Or have found that which was lost, and lieth concerning it, and sweareth falsely; in any of all these that a man doeth, sinning therein: Then it shall be, because he hath sinned, and is guilty, that he shall restore that which he took violently away, or the thing which he hath deceitfully gotten, or that which was delivered him to keep, or the lost thing which he found, Or all that about which he hath sworn falsely; he shall even restore it in the principal, and shall add the fifth part more thereto, and give it unto him to whom it appertaineth, in the day of his trespass offering. And he shall bring his trespass offering unto the LORD, a ram without blemish out of the flock, with thy estimation, for a trespass offering, unto the priest:"

James 2:10-11 - "For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all. For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if thou commit no adultery, yet if thou kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law."

Galatians 5:3 - "For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law."

Note: "circumcised" ... ergo; keeping the Law.

Note: "debtor to do the whole law" ...  under the authority of, and will be punished by the Law of Moses.

GOD'S TITHE...

 

RETURNING TO GOD IN THE TITHE

God's Word tells us;

"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?" - Malachi 3:7

How does God's word say that one is to return to God in the Book of Malachi?

>> First, God answers with a question setting the stage for His commandment and His answer in chapter three of Malachi;

"Will a man rob God?"

>> Second, God makes a statement and addresses the question;

"Yet ye have robbed me."

>> Third, God anticipates another question; 

"But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee?"

>> Forth, God answers the question;

"In tithes and offerings."

>> Fifth, relative to this discussion between God and man on returning to Him; what did God say tithing was?

Answer; tithing was returning to His ordinances, to His Law, the Law of Moses...

"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." - Malachi 3:7a

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

THE RESULTS;

By tithing based on Malachi 3:10, tithing on the ordinances of God, you're placing yourself back under the Law of Moses which we are given in the New Testament the following warnings concerning...

"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

And...

"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

CONCLUSION;

New Testament Christians are not under the Law of Moses and have NO COMMAND from God to tithe anything to anyone at any time.

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

“He has made us competent as ministers of a new covenant—not of the letter [the law] but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.” - 2 Corinthians 3:6

"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

DISANNULLED, WEAK, UNPROFITABLE

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, Verses Number;

5, 6, 8, and 9...

Focuses 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 it all...

ALL THREE ARE WEAK, ALL THREE ARE UNPROFITABLE, AND ALL THREE ARE DISANNULLED...INCLUDING TITHING.

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

God has never called Gentiles to tithe, God has never required anyone to tithe money; God, for EVERYONE, Jew and Gentile, has forever ended all forms of tithing. Read God's word; for any Believer under the New Testament, tithing is WEAK, UNPROFITABLE AND DISANNULLED (See: Hebrews 7:18).

Interesting that people who like to quote Malachi 3:10;

"Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove (bâchan) me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it."

...trying to convince you to "tithe" like to completely ignore;

>> Malachi 3:7 (keeping of the law of Moses concerning tithing, of which no Christian is under [ref.; Hebrews 7:18, Romans 6:14])...

"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?"

>> Malachi 3:15 (though given grace to do so after disobeying God, testing God is called WICKEDNESS)...

"And now we call the proud happy; yea, they that work wickedness are set up; yea, they that tempt (bâchan) God are even delivered."

>> And, Malachi 4:4 (to whom Malachi was addressing in Malachi 3:10 were under the law of Moses of which their command to tithe came from)...

"Remember ye the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all Israel, with the statutes and judgments."

TITHING MONEY; GOD FORBIDS DOING SO

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.
