6 Reasons Why Modern Day Tithing Is A Sham by sgtponzihater1(m): 11:52am On Dec 24, 2017
These are 6 reasons why modern day tithing is a Scam in a nutshell:

1. Abraham the most referenced for modern day tithing only gave tithe once and off other people's money and not from his thriving business. Jacob would also do so once, out of desperation, with a specific request attached to it.

2. The new testament never accounted any Apostle or Disciple, or any member of the Church, giving tithes but kept emphaisizig free will giving and helping the poor, and donating to Churches charity project. It also emphasized closing the gap between the rich in the Church and the poor. This gap is surely being widened today, as Pastors live in flamboyance, while majority of member wallow in shameful poverty.

3. Even the modern day Jews do not presently pay tithe, because the Levitical order of temples is down. If the Jew who instituted tithing are not paying it in modern times, then any Christian paying tithes is only playing pool in the name of religion.

4. Jesus Christ lived within the Law and was bound by it, thus was involved in feasts, and other things that pertained to the law. But the new testament began with the death of Christ, and legalism was abolished. If not why don't Christians keep to the Sabbath which is Saturday?

5.Obeying the law rigidly has been abolished by Christ, when He said, "which of you will allow your animal to drown on a Sabbath day", this proved that while the Sabbath should be kept but Charity, and helping the down trodden superceded the Law. This make daddy freezes TAP valid.

6. The Levites who collected tithes, were not allowed to own properties or even lands. If modern day pastors want to collect tithes they shouldn't own private jets, Universities, Lands, or real estates. But rather to only Channel those monies toward funding the Church, feeding them self's, and the needy in Society. They should build free schools and free restaurants and cloth the poor in dire need of help, and advance the Kingdom and not their pockets.

Tithing has to be the biggest scam of the modern day Church, and anyone giving tithes has set himself back into the dispensation of the Law, and shouldn't expect any good from it. Any blessing you get while tithing is based on Gods divine Providence, that he showers on His Children irrespective of any thing u do. In the Old testament God dealt with people on a legalistic basis, in the New testament, God deals with us as a father deals with a Child, out of sheer compassion.

Don't let the scammers fool you.
