No where in the entire New testament where believers are commanded to tithe.Apostle Peter and other leaders warned against compelling gentile believers to keep the Jewish laws-including Tithing...see( Acts.15;1-31(Gal.2:9-13)

i was joking

Read the Bible seriously. Forget what pastors do with the Bible, taking passages out of context and changing its meaning.
Read, for example Malachi and tithing understand that expired with the New Testament.
A Christian should know that a pastor who collects the tithe is actually a Satanist or a thief.

...ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone. (Matthew 23 vs 23)

Christ here says, "the weightier matters of the law" ought to be accorded importance, but that should not prevent the paying of tithe.To your question, I answer , 'Yes, it is'

Quoting Mt23:23 to prove that we must tithe in the new covenant is wrong,why? New TESTAMENT is different fron New COVENANT,the question is not whether people tithed in the new testament-yes they did.See the Jews were still observing some Jewish laws like>washing of feet,Sabbath,circumcision,animal sacrifice,purification,and Tithing, all these happened in the new testament, and it brought some problems among believers>Read Act 15:1-31 to see how the issue was resolved.If tithing is a must in the new covenant Jesus would have collected tithes from his disciples and Apostle Paul would have collected tithes from the Gentile believers but he said he worked for a living, see 1Tim.3:8

Tithing as a law is forbiden in the new covenant.Mal.3:9 placed a curse on non-Tithers but Apostle Paul said we are redeemed from the curse of the law.

According to 'Church History Magazine Vol.2,the new teaching on Tithe was introduced in 1895 by Pastor G. Robert William of Wesley Chapel of Cincinnati Ohio,USA when they ran short of money in their church.Before then there was no such teaching that Christians must pay tithes.

This caption needs a special thread on it's own so that all those who are voctims of the scam would know that it is of very modern origins and not biblical as some scammers try to pass off.

Yes pastor, see the new-age teaching on tithing undermines the gospel of the grace of God.To place a curse on the people of God based on Mal.3:9 is absurd.If tithing is as important as some pastors project it these days,Apostle Paul would introduce it to his letters to the Gentiles on giving but instead he said in 2Thess.3:8-9 "Neither eat we any man's bread for nothing, but worked with labor and travail night and day that we might not be chargeable to any one of you,not because we have not power, but to make ourselves an example unto you to follow us"

There is nothing biblical about it.
What you have mentioned, is the first history of a shepherd, who used the Bible to their advantage. It is the first record of robberies carried out by pastors who profit from the ignorance of people.

Some fools still want to discuss about the biblical basis of tithing. There is simply no. The collection of tithe is simply a deception, a theft.

The truth must be told no matter human's perspection
