You have to understand that the very Old Covenant was in fact the constitution that God created for the nation of Israel. Yes, God's agreement was that He be the King over the people of Israel. And He created that constitution for His rule over Isreal/descendants of Jacob, an everlasting agreement.

So yes, most of the concepts contained were not suggested to have been invented at the point that God included them in His constitution. There were other nations with their own constitutions as well. What is of importance is the fact that the one that God defined is the one those who believe in God ought to be interested in learning of and focusing in on.

what is a covenant and how does it operate. the covenant with israel is whose covenant.

Abraham's one time payment of a 10% tip, after Melchizedek had fed him, and probably his men as well, with Bread and wine, on their way back from war, mind you, had nothing to do with any law in practice at the time.
Note also that the 10% tip was paid to Melchizedek after, not before the food and wine

Stuff for dustbin

HedwigesMaduro:
So, was Abraham commanded to give tithes? Bottom line: what's your point?

No he became a reference point from which extrapolations are drawn as abel and people who called on God. Heb. 7: 1 - 10

Goldp5988:
My point is those in APC are same people in PDP, why ?

Same content different bottles.

HedwigesMaduro:
The command for animal sacrifice: is it from man or from God?

The first man to offer animals to God was Abel and there is no record that he was commanded. His family had been ousted from Eden his descendants were looking for a way back to God and in the time of Seth people started to call (pray) on God and not until the time of Noah, seventh generation from Adam, that God first called on man with specific instructions. Please study Genesis.

HedwigesMaduro:
He wasn't. That was why he was recorded as doing it once, and from war booty and not his substance.

He melchizedek how many times? it should be noticed that many things that later became part of the law were already being practiced. some by the nations around then, e.g. covenant making, prayer, buying and selling, worship, altars, marriage, law of inheritance.

Why would Muslins want to cripple the north?

For Nigeria to remain one and for fairness, te next president MUST be Igbo. Thereafter, MiddleBelt.. if SW thinks otherwise, then await ATIKU presidency. I have sad my own. SW have used their slots and cannot be greedy otherwise South loses.
FYI I am Niger delta, just saying the truth.

The road to presidency is broad, igbo's vehicle to 2023 has broken down enroute, others can overtake.

100% of terrorists are northern muslims. Terrorism on our economy and insecurity are from northern bandits and clueless politicians and chief among them is Buhari.

Kobojunkie:
Paul's argument there was directed directed at the Jewish Christians so He knew best how He wanted to reach them as far as getting them to abandon the Old Covenant and fully embracing the new Covenant that Jesus Christ came with for them instead.

Is that a honest deduction from the text?

Kobojunkie:
i did

your deduction?

Kobojunkie:
What about it?

Kobojunkie:
God brought the Israelites out of Egypt, and then proclaiming He would be their God(King) and they would be His people. As King, He set about to put together His nations constitution and the tithing law was part of fhe tax/welfare system He put in place to ensure none went hungry in the land, and that the Levites who had no inheritance in the new land He promised Abraham(by His design of course) were taken care of.

consider heb 7: 5 - 9

Kobojunkie:
Abraham never started tithing. That is a lie.

Abraham went to war with more thAn 300 of his men. On their way back, likely exhausted but victorious, they were met by a King who offered them bread and wine. In appreciation, Abraham gave the man 10% of what they had acquired from the war. And that was the end of that.

How can you say that Abraham started tithing from that story? How do you compare tithing as defined by God to that?

please could you explain how and when it started?

Campaign after election, anyways, the sky is blue.

Kobojunkie:
the one practiced in the world-churches today was created entirely by men...it has absolutely nothing to do with God.

Your answers are not always straight to the point. anyways Abraham that started tithing, was he commanded?

Kobojunkie:
Matthew 25 vs 31- 40. That is the giving that we are still called to, only now it is the giving that gets one into heaven.

Notice there are no pastors or any of that sort specified. And certainly no church organizations.

is tithing from man or God?

Kobojunkie:
the story of circumcision begins with Abraham but was forgotten during Israel's of slavery in Egypt. But was reinstated as the seal of the old Covenant .

Tithe?

Kobojunkie:
Circumcision was revealed during the Law as again.

You have to read that book....it is a great story to read. The first 5 books of your bible bring it all together in a neat and well told package.

Read it as if reading a Novel and see.

John 7: 22

jmoore:
Tithe is for Judaism.

Christians don't pay tithe.


The only place you are likely to meet a levite is in Israel. No Nigerian pastor is a descendant of Levi.


Malachi was actually talking to the priests not the congregation. God was telling the pastors, bishops that they themselves are robbing God.

Did tithe like circumaision begin with the Law or before?
