Why Does A Christian Need To Pay His/her Tithe? by fitzmayowa: 8:53am On Apr 21, 2013 |
After hearing pastors preaching about tithe and offering, I just wonder why does a christian really need to pay his/her tithe. 1 Like |

^ NO! A Christian is different from the Jews. Christ cancelled the laws that separate Jews and Non-Jews and made ONE NEW MAN in HIMSELF, not governed by the law of Moses for the Jews ONLY. The law of Moses (Torah) is NOT meant for Christians but ONLY for the Jews. There's ABSOLUTELY NOWHERE in the New Testament for Christians to tithe, none but rather, Hebrews 7 writes to the Jews who were still practicing Judaism to come fully to the Grace of Christ and abandon legalisms of the law of Moses. Hebrews 7 cancelled tithing also. |

Christians are not meant to tithe. Tithe doctrine in christianity is a false teaching derived from twisting scriptures. |

mysticgal: say whatever you want i will still tithe.lemme tell it's a commandment and it must be kept. Nothing do you o my sister. We don't 'force' on people, we 'teach & preach' the word and allow God to do the rest. The same God who commanded it to the Jews, also cancelled it to Christians. |

mysticgal: day God doesn't put people in hell for not tithing sweerie. The sins that God judges are clearly stated in scriptures and I didn't see 'non tithing' listed therein. Take your time sweerie, and study more on the word. What God blesses is Grace based giving. |

Again, the Christ that died represent the law of Moses, in the flesh and died to fulfill the law that we might be MARRIED TO ANOTHER, THE RISEN CHRIST OF GRACE. Romans 7 |

There is such a thing as a Religious Spirit. That is what the above quote shows. Paul in Colosians 2:23ff said 'Such regulations indeed have an appearance of wisdom, with their self imposed worship, their false humility, and their harsh treatment of the body, BUT THEY LACK ANY VALUE IN RESTRAINING SENSUAL INDULGENCE' In other words, the religious spirit would make you find security in what you do for God and not what he has done for you(grace) - which leads to His Spirit working in us and reforming our Character. For bearing the fruits of the spirit is all the law that the NT Christian is called to keep. Not tithing, not going to church, not deliverances, not revival programming... etc but bearing his fruits. Which the Spirit does through us and not via religious duties as these thing cannot restrain sin - sensual indulgences. So whether you pay your tithe or not, how does that help you become a better, holy, fruit bearing person. 1 Like |

mysticgal: dayDon't you think its absurd for God to put you in hell simply because you didn't pay your tithe? If you must know, your sins which you've refused to admit and confess is what would lead you to hell and not whether or not you pay your tithe. If you sincerely want to obey God's word, then stick to your bible and refrain from following your pastor's lips. |
