Goshen360:

The question is, does the church of Christ, the Apostles or disciples of Christ REPLACE scribes and pharisees IN THE CONTEXT of that verse?

It doesn't make sense. Was tithing only meant for Pharisees? Or worshippers of God?

Burnt offering was a sin offering , it was a shadow of Jesus , when Jesus had come he had fulfilled the shadow. The tithe was not a shadow of anything . It's and endless ministry . As long as there's a high priest here must be tithing .
Why didn't the Early Christians Give Tithe?

The Tithe was given to the Isrealites as a Law to give to the Levites, Are Christians Isrealites?

Tithing existed before isreal exited, it existed before the law existed. Tithing was of faith. Abraham is our father of faith. If you are follower of Abraham's faith ,then you ought to tithe.

Bidam: And i repeat it is still an illogical question.Let's follow what you even asked Joabaje(i believe he will answer you accurately that's why i did not bother). Jesus came to interpret the intent of the law.Take the case of the woman caught in adultery,if Jesus was only addressing the pharisees concerning the law why did he not tell them to stone her to death?
When did Sadducee came with their question on resurrection what did Jesus tell them? Is that teaching only applicable to the pharisees?

When the pharisees came also the issue of handing a divorce according to mosaic law and Jesus told them from the beginning it was not so.Are you telling us that teaching is only applicable to only the pharisee?

You need to rightly divide the word of truth and not pick one also and leave the other here.What is good for the goose is also good for the gander.

Christians don't have laws. The principles have always been there. It was never abolish. As long as we can still give offerings to God , we ought to give tithes too. These two principles are eternal. The closest I can give you is 1cor 9:which I quoted

The Law and commandments are different, all the Ten commandments that was given to the Isrealites where summarised into Love.
Th law which entails tithe and offerings where changed:
(1) Tithe (compulsory 10%) was changed to a freewill giving. 2 Corinthians 9:6-8
(2) Offering (burnt and sin) where both annuled by the Death of Jesus The Christ.

Remember the Inspiration of God was filled within the writers of the Initial Bible in Greek, not some rubbish translation who just do their for their own profit.

The tithe that existed before the law, was it a COMMANDED tithe? Was items of tithe before the law acceptable as tithe items under the law? When Hebrews 7 nullified the levitical priesthood, does the tithe still remain?

Good.unlike goshen who feels he knows all and refused to answer my questions atleast you did based on your understanding.Atleast i learnt from zikky that tithe was never 10%.

So go back and study more before you open a thread on tithing that you know nothing about.Thanks.

It's like you're sweating . . Don't be frustrated, the truth doesn't require fight and vulgar words . Take it easy .present your case ,lets judge it but the word ehn! God loves you any how

2 Timothy 2:24
. . And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient,In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;

Tithe that was a Law to the Israelites to be given to supoort the Levites was 1/10 (One-tenth=10%) of everything they had i.e 10% of their clothes, 10% of their food, 10% of their harvest, 10% of their Livestock e.t.c. Learn to study by yourself and not stick to what you are been told.

I never said otherwise but christianity is a new leaf, the israelites had a religion which is known as Judaism with which they use the Jewish Law as their pattern and way of Life. Christianity is made up of the Jews and Gentiles (all nations which are not jews of whom the jews saw as sinners)
