My dear friend, you are not indebted to

[quote author=Onyegecha]


My dear friend, you are not indebted to God; can never be. He does not require any tithe from you. All you need to do is to free your mind from this shackle of the mind which religious folks have effectively used to enslave millions over the years. Serve God with your substance, but it must be from your heart, not in obedience to any compelling law. Do good, serve humanity and give as much as you can to fellow men, and God is pleased with you. Even the Bible says so in so many places. cheers

my brother tithe is not for christians but was part of the law given to the old covenant ppl (jews) so it is not a question of whether you are still living with ur parents or not, the truth is you should not pay tithe all, in our church Living Waters in Calabar we dont collect tithe becos we have not seen anyplace in the bible where Jesus or any of the disciple recieve, pay or even say anytiing about tithe. The death of Jesus Christ abolished tithe. Other churches like Church of Christ, The Jehovah Witness etc share in this truthe and do not put this yoke on thier members

. Conversely,in the book of Matthew 23:23 – Jesus rebukes the Pharisees for
not obeying the weightier matters of the law along
with tithing.

You said it urself 'weightier matter of the LAW, that is to say even in the dispensation of the LAW there were other things that were more IMPORTANT (weightier) than tithe. And Christ made this statement b4 His death., if you know what i mean.
