The mood is second tranche disbusement, rent is counting or what do you think Guys..

MrPristine:
If you had quoted verse 25 in full it would have proved that money was not acceptable as tithes because God asked the tither to use the money to buy food stuff and wine but in your dishonesty you left out that part and only quoted the part that mentioned money in order to deceive those who haven't read that passage properly before.

What is the difference between command and instruction
"A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another." - John 13:34
Is Jesus forcing us to love in the above text?

Tithing is NOT at a stipulated time? Not everyone gets income by months end.
Some people pay tithes 3 or 4 times in the same month. Some just 2 times a year.

Thanks for the question. As I have been saying. Tithe is 10% of my income given to GOD OUT of LOVE (NOT FORCE). God is NOT a GOD of force.
If you dont want to pay, leave it but DONT bring scripture to negate it. The fact it wasnt mention in New testament does mean it is DEAD. Masturbation wasnt mention neither was smoking. Are they good? We have the Holy Spirit to lead us.

There is high voltage now. So we can accommodate any distraction from YouWiN! 4.
They have their own thread. They should post there for now. After this high voltage we will accommodate them.

Barnabaseloka:
Thanks for your comment,but let me clarify this more.
1. I think we misunderstand something here. When we talk of tithe, we view it from two perspectives: tithe as a law and tithe as a free-will offering. Tithe simply means one-tenth. Actually, tithing (giving one-tenth) did not start from the Israelites. People still give one-tenth (tithe) of what they have to God.
Our concern is whether Christians are expected to tithe (give one-tenth) as a law (command) or as a free-will giving. One can decide within oneself to give a tenth (tithe) of one's income to God, if one is led by the Holy Spirit to do so. It is not a command that one must give one-tenth (tithe) of one's possession at a stipulated period of time (every month, week or two weeks). Giving is as one decides in one's heart (whether one-tenth or not). It is not that one must (under a command) give one-tenth of one's income as we see today being preached in churches. So tithing (giving one-tenth) of one's income still exists today but not as a command but a choice.

2. God has given us free-will to obey what he commands us to do or not to obey. He will not force any man to obey his commands. The Israelites were commanded by God (as a law) to tithe according to the laid-down guidelines concerning these tithes. Tithe (as a law) was not just done in one way but in different ways and in different chosen times and places (Deut.14:22-29). All the laws given to Moses were commands from God which the Israelites should keep. It is left for any Israelite to keep them or not, b/c it is not by force, yet a command. Disobedience to such commands attracted punishment from God to the Israelites, including payment of tithes. It was due to their disobedience that God rebuked them in Malachi.

There was no such command (or law) given to Abraham to tithe (give one-tenth) of his possession. As such, no consequence would have come to him if he decided not to give one-tenth of what he had. Abraham could have given less than or more than what he gave. It was of his own choice to give one-tenth and would not be punished even if he did not give at all.

Why do tithers give one-tenth (tithe) of their income at stipulated periods of time? Are they not trying to follow the law as the Israelites did? Free-will offering or giving for Christians is not bound to be one-tenth, but what one decides to give (whether one-tenth or not).
On the otherhand, if one promises God a tenth of one's income at a stipulated time (every month or every two months or every year), such agreement is between the person and God. It is called VOW. it has nothing to do with the one-tenth people are subjected to pay every month in churches today.

NumberOne2:
DO NOT misquote me, kindly read my POSTS properly, I emphasize that:

1) Tithing is NOT old testament as some claim cos Abraham was NOT a JEW.

2) Tithing or anything in the bible is not by force. It is a choice. Right from Genesis through OLD and NEW testament, God never forced anyone to do anything. The JEWS were NOT forced to tithe as some of you keep emphasizing. We all have FREE WILL.

3) Abraham's tithing was NOT by force. Even the Israelites were NOT FORCED to tithe. Being Born-Again IS NOT BY FORCE. We are FREE SPIRITS

FINALLY those saying tithe does NOT involve money: Read Deut 14:22-27 (especially verse 25), Mat 23:23.
"Then shalt thou turn it into money, and bind up the money in thine hand, and shalt go unto the place which the LORD thy God shall choose:" - Deut 14:25

Please do NOT add or remove or deduce falsely from my statements.

If your Pastor forced you to tithe, that is NOT my problem but TITHING is GOOD and so is GIVING TO THE POOR as well as GIVING ALL and so is FIRST FRUIT and so is STAYING UNMARRIED!

NumberOne2:
Your statements are too sentimental for me to reply properly.
I have made reference to several scriptures but you have none except emotional outburst.

"For God so loved the world, that he GAVE his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." - John 3:16
Proof of love is in giving. You love God, where is your proof?
You love your wife so you give to her. Just keep telling her about love and not doing anything and see how long that marriage will last. Love talk is cheap.
