It Is A Sin For A Christain To Pay Tithe by GlobalGisting(m): 7:09am On May 27, 2017
Oh yes, the Bible is the word of God and it commands, "do not add nor take away from what is written therein". It was created to reprove, to teach and for every good work. But most Christians seems to only read the Bible only through their pastor's/leader's/elder's lips.
The Bible is clear and understandable. Little wonder the Ephesians never took what they learnt hook, line and sinker for the Bible said they were commended for going home to crosscheck on their own whether what they were taught was in line with God's word.
Now onto the issue of tithe, we read at Heb 7:11 If, then, perfection was attainable through the Levitical priesthood (for it was a feature of the Law that was given to the people), what further need would there be for another priest to arise who is said to be in the manner of Mel·chizʹe·dek and not in the manner of Aaron?
Clearly paying of tithe was a thing of the levites and here it becomes clear that perfection was not attainable through tithe. Further, the apostle said at Heb 7:18 So, then, the former commandment is set aside because it is weak and ineffective. 19 For the Law made nothing perfect, but the introduction of a better hope did, through which we are drawing near to God.
"Weak and ineffective" was his definition of the levitical order which the Bible clearly stated is done away with. Yes, there was a need for tithe but it ended when the need for a higher sacrifice came. So it becomes a sin for a Christian who reads the Bible to yet pay tithe as we see further in Heb 7:22 Jesus has accordingly become the guarantee of a better covenant.
If you yet pay tithe, you are undermining, underrating, under appreciating, debasing, ignoring, un-acknowledging the propitiatory sacrifice of our lord Jesus Christ which is a better guaranteed covenant and clinging to the shibolets of the levitical arrangement which has been done away with.
In other words, you are like the hypocrites who held on to their beliefs of Sabbath and the rest when Christ walked the earth and tried to correct them but instead they turned against him and killed him. Read your Bible well and repent. Peace.
