snailspeed:
What do you mean by my own definition? The new testament or new covenant came into place by the death and resurrection of Jesus. Please do read your bible so we don't need to go back to such basics

snailspeed:
Maybe I need to break it down.

1. The default at the time was that the Jews paid tithe under the law of Moses. So Jesus simply said to them,

"look at you guys. You are taking your time to pay your tithe to the smallest bit but you neglect important issues. I am not saying you shouldn't tithe but you must take the more important issues more seriously than even your tithe"

So how is that now a command to you to tithe?

2. There is no record that the disciples paid tithe during and after Jesus left them. None whatsoever. First of all, most of his disciples were not even qualified to pay tithes. In Jewish tradition and under the law of Moses, only farmers and animal rearers paid tithes. Others, like carpenters, masons, etc, did not pay tithes

3. The Jews paid tithes to the levites and the Levite's paid tithes to the priests. When Jesus died, God ended the levitical priesthood so automatically, tithing stools because there is no levite to pay the tithe to. That is why the disciples did not pay tithes. The Jews obviously continued to pay tithes because they didn't believe in Jesus. But after Jerusalem was destroyed in AD 70 and till today, the Jews no longer pay tithes as there is no priesthood

LEGALAide:
New Living Translation right?
How does: YOU SHOULD TITHE imply that Jesus said that tithing is mandatory?
What it simply means is: LOOK, I'M NOT SAYING YOU SHOULD NOT TITHE, BUT PAY ATTENTION TO IMPORTANT THINGS!
Now if Jesus said that someone should eat, should that imply that Jesus said that it is mandatory the person ate?
Relate it to the washing of the back of cups practised by the Jews, if Jesus told them: YOU SHOULD WASH THE BACK OF YOUR CUPS, YES, BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY, WASH THE INSIDE, should that mean that Jesus is endorsing washing the back of cups?
Please read the Bible with understanding!

For better understanding of that passage, read also from other versions:

New International Version

"Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You give a tenth of your spices--mint, dill and cumin. But you have neglected the more important matters of the law--justice, mercy and faithfulness. You should have practiced the latter, without neglecting the former.

New Living Translation

"What sorrow awaits you teachers of religious law and you Pharisees. Hypocrites!

THANK ME LATER!

snailspeed:
He said is was OK for the Pharisees to tithe because they were Jews living under the law of Moses. How is that a command for you as a Christian to tithe? As at the time Jesus spoke, they were supposed to tithe. They had Levites and priests. They were still sacrificing animals at the alter. Even Jesus sacrificed animals at that time. Isn't that obvious?

snailspeed:
There is no where in that verse that Jesus commanded us or instructed us to npay tithes. And for the record, that verse is not a new testament verse. Matthew to John are all old testament apart from their last 1 or 2 chapters. The new testament started when Jesus rose from the dead.

Dee235:
Despite the so many scripture verses from the writer he forgot this verse about what Jesus said about Tithe.

Mat 23:23 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for 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.

Emphasis on: and not to leave the other undone.

Dee235:
This is living bible translation.

"SORROW AWAITS YOU PHARISEES! FOR YOU ARE CAREFUL TO TITHE EVEN THE TINIEST INCOME FROM YOUR HERB GARDEN, BUT YOU IGNORE JUSTICE AND THE LOVE OF GOD." [B]YOU SHOULD TITHE[/b]", YES!BUT DO NOT NEGLECT THE MORE IMPORTANT THINGS" luke 11 :42, Matthew23:23.

Despite the emphasis was on mercy...the other undone was referring to Tithe.

Durinsday:
See Emphasis #1: Jesus was addressing the pharisees, not Christians! Pharisees were under the law of moses.

LEGALAide:
Bia.
What is wrong with you?
Was Jesus in that passage not rebuking them for not paying mind to important things, important things not being tithing?
That passage is in no way endorsing tithing!
Please I'm tired of this nonsense.

Durinsday:
Emphasis #1:
Woe unto you "SCRIBES AND PHARISEES"! We are not them, we are co-heirs with Christ

Emphasis 2:
...and have omitted weightier matters of "THE LAW". We are no longer under the law but justified by faith as Christ has died for us. If we were under the law, perhaps we should be observing burning of bulls as a sacrifice unto God, an eye for an eye etc.

Christ had not died and redeemed us by then. Do you think Nicodemus continued being a pharisee after meeting Christ, the king of glory? Did he continue taking tithes etc according to the law after meeting the light of the world? Those things did not matter anymore!

Christ has asked us to give whole heartedly and not out of compulsion.

WOE UNTO YOU PHARISEES! FOR YOU TITHE MINT AND RUE AND ALL MANNER OF HERBS, AND PASS JUSTICE AND THE LOVE OF GOD, THIS YOU OUGHT TO HAVE DONE WITHOUT LEAVING THE (TITHING) UNDONE -LUKE 11 :42

IF YOU CAN'T COUNTER IT, THEN YOU HAVE NO POINT BRO
