Giving/tithing is part of the Christian faith. This is between you and your relationship with God. I don't believe it should be based on anyone's opinion. I do it according to the Word of God and my faith.

At the time of writing, cold hard cash currency as we know it today was not necessarily the most common or popular means of payment. A grain farmer could exchange grain for, say, fabric or pottery. A cattle farmer could trade a calf for a donkey, etc. So food was absolutely an accepted commodity. At this point in our world, we exchange cash or coin for goods and services because that is how currency and its use has evolved.

Now the question is, where in the Bible does it explicitly instruct income as in wages as a tithe? As a Christian who has studied this topic, the answer is there isn't a verse within the Torah aka Law of Moses nor in the New Testament that states the tithe is from wages. Here is what the Bible does illustrate about the tithe: First tenth of land produce Tenth animal of a group of ten from the herd or flock Anyone wanting to redeem aka keep the tithe must pay the valuation plus 20% Levite tithe Feast tithe Every third year tithe to widows, orphans, Levites and strangers The Levite received the tithe in lieu of not having a land inheritance and the tithe needs to be brought to the temple, and neither the Aaronic priesthood nor the temple exists today. Next, in case someone wants to cite Melchizedek receiving a tithe from Abraham, the word all doesn't specify wages, so it is eisegesis interpretation to suggest that. I am not against giving at all, and I actually financially support the church I am part of, but I am against people and more specifically pastors twisting scripture and using emotional manipulation, coercion and guilt-tripping against people to get money (hence the infamous misuse of Malachi 3 that was actually a rebuke against the priests). Now if someone wants to give an offering that is scriptural in nature, Acts 4 illustrates how people sold their property and laid the money at the disciples' feet and 2 Corinthians 9:6-7 addresses the level of giving whereas Matthew 6 addresses intent. Of course, you can use the tithe percentage as a level of giving if you choose, but it is irresponsible and frankly predatory of any pastor to demand someone to tithe under compulsion when that struggling individual should be the recipient of donations as per the every third year tithe instruction.

If you have never seen a local church care for the needy, then I have serious doubts on your involvement in a local church (or you are involved in one that does not practice what is taught in the Christian Bible.) When I have been in need, my local church family was there for me. Not just once or by one local church, and not just when I was a member. Actually one local church in Cedar Rapids, IA helped me in time of need and lead me to know the Christ through their generosity. After my wife left (we lived in PA at the time), the local church help me out immensely. As a single dad with three young boys, I needed all the help they provided. Recently this church operated a food bank supply solely by donations. (FYI all money the church receives in through donations, as well.) When I was unemployed and had no money, they gave us food. When I needed a ride, many members gave me a ride. When I needed someone to watch my boys while I was at work, they referred me to wonderful sitters.

The verse in 2 Corinthians 9:7 clearly reads “Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.” It says that every man purposes himself. It does not say God led him. You do not need the original translation for that but that is pretty clear to me. God wants people to do it out of their own heart because that is a willing heart. Just like the gospel of Jesus Christ, God does not force people to get saved but for them to want to be saved so clearly giving is done willfully and not forced or led by someone else.

Just to add an offering is almost always an animal or food. Kill an animal sprinkle its blood at the alter and then burn the flesh as a burnt offering. Try this at your church. So you see we dont do tithes or offerings. Do some study. You can and should help people but we need to get off this tithes and offerings lie. It's not for today.

Tithing began before the Law was given and is an important understanding of Christ's priesthood as a Melchizedek order.... but we also see sacrifice as an atonement before the law was given when God gave Adam and Eve skins to wear.... Or as an act of righteous worship in Abels sacrifice of his flock, All three which were then later bound into the Law, and then done away with. It is not that tithing is not older, but that it became part of a thing no Christian must adhere to; our tithe is in our free giving. To say tithing is required is to say the law is required. As to it being part of the Law it is seen in Lev 27:30 and Num 18:26 clearly.".

Where is the old testament practice of tithing (Deuteronomy 28) or (Leviticus 27) reaffirmed by Christ. I see nothing of the sort in my new testament reading ? I only see where Jesus and the Apostle Paul speak about offerings...............not tithes. Where does God's word tell us that offerings are paid out of a surplus? According to what I've read in the scripture, because we are under the New Testament covenant we are not obligated to pay tithes. So, while the new testament scripture does speak about offerings, we are not obligated to pay tithes because we are not under the Mosaic Law to pay the 10 % tithe as the Israelites paid into the temple for the Levitical priests. Nor are we compelled to pay additional sums which could amount to a total 23.3 percent under the old law. And there is no place in scripture that I have seen which requires us to pay our tithes to a local church. We do our best to give to others whom we know are experiencing difficulties, and even that isn't a qualifier. We simply give to whomever we believe we are led to give to meet whichever need must be met.

@@mcallisterc22 Yes, God most definitely does want you to be wealthy. I didn't say greedy, hasty, coveting, idolatrous, or not generous (like most of the rich fools in the Bible). I simply said wealthy. If you don't think God is wealthy, you don't know God. Are you planning on going to heaven? Do you want to go to the streets of gold or a garbage dump? I used to believe being poor was more righteous than being rich. God had to show me that is not true. That is actually idolatrous because only the blood of Jesus makes you righteous, not how much money you have, whether a lot or a little. Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob were all very wealthy, and that's who God says He's the God of! As for verses, check these out: Psalm 35:27, 3 John 2, 2 Corinthians 8:9. For tithing, see Matthew 23:23. Jesus told the Pharisees that they should have mercy but STILL tithe. The very first sin was stealing from what was the Lord's, which is what God says not tithing is (Malachi 3). Adam and Eve could eat from any tree, but not from the one God said no to. God set that tree apart as to not be touched. God says you can spend the money you have, but not what belongs to Him (the tithe). The tithe is not to be spent. It's funny how this sin is so tempting to people. If you can't live off of 90% of your income, you have more severe problems.

Christians should give above the law ABOVE THE LAW NOT below the law, therefore if the law was 10% then Christians should give above 10% whether split in 100 places or one place. Tithing would mean to put the 10% in one place, so to GIVE in the new testament you split it into many places obeying giving ABOVE the law. REMEMBER "The tithe is the Lords" not any Churches or Cult. The tithe is the Lords for you to give above the Law unto the Lord by Faith. Even carnal men can tithe unto the Lord to Charities because all the wealth of the earth belongs to the Most High. The difference between the Old and New Covenant is that in the NEW covenant the Lord removes all differences between Tithes, Offerings, and Firstfruits and Alms etc. All are OFFERINGS nevertheless the Lords weighs the heart to know if he/she gives a worthy offering or not. We say we live in the dispensation of Grace and seedtime and harvest yet we give less than the Old Covenant? ABSOLUTE NONSENSE! Do we give less because we are poorer than those in the Old Covenant or some say they were for Jews ... however, Malachi says "Will A man rob God?" A man any human being with flesh and blood: will a man rob God? Some say Tithe have only planted fruit crops and farm produce: Do we still live under seed time and harvest and why do we still give Offerings and Charity today? Some say the Tithe was a tax by the Children of Israel to God as ruler: Really is our tax today more spiritual? Why do we use offerings in Church then? Notice I have mentioned only converting the 10%TITHE into giving in the NEW Testament dispensation as a minimum giving and not controlling where and how it is given as I am not an advocate of giving the 10% constantly to the same church week or month after month. But Christians total giving should be above 10% per income thereby living above the Law in grace.

Subsequently, they might an untimely end. So what other Benchmark would you propose? The tithe existed before the levitical law. It was in common practice with the Chaldeans in the land of UR. Abraham gave a tithe to the king of Salem recorded in Genesis. The levitical law expanded on this tithe and mandated three separate tithes. AKA 30% total. Jesus of Nazareth expanded the tithe even more by telling his disciples and the Pharisees to "give unto God what is God's." In other words, give everything back to God. Jesus of Nazareth took the levitical law and expanded on it to be incorporated into every aspect of life so much so that it became our very existence and nature. So where is the heart of the matter? Are you looking at what you can keep or what you can give? For none of it is truly ours. Everything we have is simply on loan to us to be wise stewarts with. So I ask again, where is your benchmark?

When Peter came into the house, Jesus was the first to speak. “What do you think, Simon?” he asked. “From whom do the kings of the earth collect duty and taxes-from their own children or from others?” 26 “From others,” Peter answered. “Then the children are exempt,” Jesus said to him. 27 “But so that we may not cause offense, go to the lake and throw out your line. Take the first fish you catch; open its mouth and you will find a four-drachma coin. Take it and give it to them for my tax and yours.” SO TITHE IS NOT JUST FOR ANIMALS, FRUITS, ETC.

When reading these parts of the scripture “What do you think, Simon?” he asked. “From whom do the kings of the earth collect duty and taxes-from their own children or from others?”26 “From others,” Peter answered.“Then the children are exempt,” we see that He is Speaking from His Lordship as God, and His Children don't have to pay the earthly temple tax at all. However, Jesus provided for for the payment of the temple tax, because peter said He would pay and not paying after that would've caused offense, thence hindering His Mission in Capernaum.
