Tithing is one of the important aspect of Christianity. This concept was derive from mosaic law by Christians and Jesus said he came to fulfil the law not to condemn the law. According to mosaic law in the Deuteronomy 26:12-15 the tithe should be shared among the following people
- The priest
- The widow
- The poor
- The Fatherless
- And the stranger
Please, bible schoolers why is it that many churches are not following this standard in sharing the tithe.

Where in the Bible does God demand that Christians should pay tithe?

Why is it that you are only singling out tithe out of all the mosaic law that you said that Jesus has come to fulfill?
What about the rest of the mosaic laws, are we not also suppose to obey and follow them?

but who then does the scripture reveal are the priests

Well, that's by the way.

Let me give you a tutorial. After any harvest, and after church service, visit your pastor. You'd likely perceive chicken stew.

Or spy on them. He'd be busy calculating how to share the money realised to his children in school.


Then check your life.

In new testament dispensation the priests are the pastor, Bishop, the prophet, the evangelist, the apostle and teacher of his word.

Levitical priests or under the order of Melchizedek?

The pastor that is driving Rolls Royce and flying private jets abi? Quote somewhere in the new testament where it was said that they are the priests!

Sir let me read, 1Cor.16.2 On the first day of every week, each one of you should set aside a sum of money in keeping with his income, saving it up, so that when I come no collections will have to be made.

goodconsience77:

Please check: 1cor 16:2, Heb 7:1-28

Sir I am reading Hebrews but I didn't see the command to the christians Michael547 asked you for, but I saw this sir

Heb.7.5 And indeed those who are of the sons of Levi, who receive the priesthood, have a commandment to receive tithes from the people according to the law, that is, from their brethren, though they have come from the loins of Abraham;


Sir it says this priesthood was given to the sons of Levi, and they collected it from the Israelites not the church, and according to the law not according to grace and truth


Should I keep reading and quoting sir

goodconscience77 sir, I will keep reading the Hebrews 7 sir

Heb.7.6 but he whose genealogy is not derived from them received tithes from Abraham and blessed him who had the promises.

Heb.7.7 And without question, the person who has the power to bless is always greater than the person who is blessed.


Heb.7.8 In the case of Jewish priests, tithes are paid to men who will die. But Melchizedek is greater than they are, because we are told that he lives on.



Jesus being Melchizedek

goodconsience77:
Tithing is one of the important aspect of Christianity.

I like the fact that you went to Deuteronomy and not Malachi. But read that place carefully. Go to Deuteronomy 14, from Vs 22.

You are supposed to bring the tithes of your (farm) produce to a place where God will instruct. And if it's too far, sell your produce and use it to buy food, wine or strong drink (highly alcoholic beverage), WHATEVER YOUR SOUL LUSTS FOR. Eat and drink with Thanksgiving for God's blessings. The levites, and less privileged will now come to that place to take their share. So that no one will be hungry.

Reflect on this and check if any church collecting tithes today is complying with this (original) commandment.
Then update your post or quote me.

NB - they don't comply because there are either liars or ignorant. Tithing is not Christ's standard.

To 28 sir

Heb.7.11 Therefore, if perfection were through the Levitical priesthood (for under it the people received the law), what further need was there that another priest should rise according to the order of Melchizedek, and not be called according to the order of Aaron? (NKJV)



Sir goodconscience77 what order of priest are ye?

Heb.7.12 For the priesthood being changed, of necessity there is also a change of the law. (NKJV)


Sir did the law change or not?

Paul wrote the law of faith we obey, of faith in Jesus, what law sir do you obey?

I am part of God's kingdom of priest, with Jesus the high priest so note this

Heb.7.16 He became a priest, not by meeting the old requirement of belonging to the tribe of Levi, but by the power of a life that cannot be destroyed.


By the power of eternal life

Sir goodconscience77 where is thy good conscience

We read the verse chapter you said we should

Heb.7.18 For on the one hand there is an annulling of the former commandment because of its weakness and unprofitableness,


Sir did the author not know the profitability of tithing?

Of do you think of us as fools who do not read the bible?

Heb.7.19 For the law made nothing perfect, and now a better hope has taken its place. And that is how we draw near to God.

Come and access that hope @ the Gate of HOPE fellowship 😎

Our hope is Jesus

Heb.7.26 For such a High Priest was fitting for us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and has become higher than the heavens;

Heb.7.27 who does not need daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifices, first for His own sins and then for the people's, for this He did once for all when He offered up Himself.

He does not need your sacrifices


Sir goodconscience77 we have READ THE WHOLE OF HEBREWS 7 where is the answer to Mathew547's question.


Sir if you do not repent, hell is a free place to go.

Repent from lying against God's word. Repent for the kingdom of God is at hand. Repent.

goodconsience77:

Please check: 1cor 16:2, Heb 7:1-28

Please show me what verse in Heb 7:1-28 where Christians are required to pay tithe?
Below is 1 cor 16:2. Kindly point put where tithe was mentioned.

Thank you oo. In fact it's (almost) zero compliance everywhere.
They always quote Malachi only because it's the most convenient for them to instill guilt and fear on people.
They have made themselves rich on the gospel.
Thank God I snapped out of that 419 doctrine many years ago, by the help of the Holy Spirit.

But you've refused to tell us how many mosaic laws that Christians are obligated to obey.

And what were the modifications that Jesus made to tithe?

You're spot on. Hebrews 7 has answered the law of tithing. Actually, I think Paul wrote that chapter to address the issue of tithing.sd relating to Christianity.

As a Christian we are connected to a Abrahamic covenant through Jesus christ so if Abraham paid tithe to melchizedec we also pay tithe to the church which make us to covenanted with Abraham.
