MaxInDHouse:
I thought you agreed that Jesus is the High Priest through whom people from other nations became members of the house of faith but obviously you don't understand so let me teach you!
You forgot I brought the issue of High Priest up.

Definitely you don't know what you're saying.

No high priest in Israel is equal with Jesus who entered the Most Holy (Heaven) not with the blood of animals but with his own blood to redeem mankind. Hebrews 9:12
That is the point!

That is why if you study the book of Hebrew 7 very well you understand why why the Writer says "8 The priests who collect tithes are men who die, so Melchizedek is greater than they are, because we are told that he lives on. 9 In addition, we might even say that these Levites—the ones who collect the tithe—paid a tithe to Melchizedek when their ancestor Abraham paid a tithe to him.

So as the High Priest that connected gentiles to God's glorious assembly all must bow to whatever he commanded {Philippians 2:10} He didn't ask us to pay tithes so there's no reason to bring it to him but he commanded us to spend our precious times in preaching zealously and industriously teaching all the things he taught us {Matthew 10:11-13; 28:19-20} this requires time and since time is equivalent of money whoever is doing this work {John 4:34} is paying something precious to our new High Priest!
at @color is sufficient and seal everything for me.

Now you can't deny knowing scripture supported PAYING OF TITHE.

So don't twist scripture further just obey God!

That's nice!

The same scriptures supported animal sacrifices so don't speak against those sacrificing animals since it's found WRITTEN as part of the law!

I know you'll come with this line! grin cheesy grin cheesy

The writer of the book of Hebrew already addressed everything including animal sacrifices.

Or you want me to lecture you on that?

Finally, I'm glad you see that scriptures supported TITHE!

Please lecture me where the scriptures stopped animal sacrifices but retained tithing which was meant for the services rendered by those in charge of animal sacrifices: priests!

Even the the owner of the thread already admitted that tithing was never practiced by the first century Christians.
Ken4Christ:
I agree.

About Tithe Melchizedek was alluded and you confess yourself that PEOPLE MUST GIVE SOMETHING BACK TO JESUS just as Abraham did to Melchizedek.

Even though I know you don't want to call it TITHE as scripture says.

But you eventually said "this requires time and since time is equivalent of money whoever is doing this work..."

Now, about animal sacrifices, Jesus OFFERED HIS BODY!

Animals sacrifices aren't ETERNAL PRACTICES but Tithe, Sabbath and Circumcision are!

Exactly!

The new High Priest offered his body that's why monetary tithing ends because it's what was used to pay for the services of those in charge of animal sacrifices! Hebrews 7:11-12 smiley

Monetary TITHING ENDED but TIMING TITHING didn't, right?

After I've quoted that Heb 7:11-12 several time you're still repeating it grin cheesy grin cheesy

Perhaps you need to know that back in the days of Israelite high priests they're the ones who tells the people what to do under the old covenant so since Jesus the new High Priest never demanded tithes from anyone but time to do the most important work he was assigned to do {John 4:34} there's no going back to what has ended: the old covenant!

Meanwhile let me correct you on some things you you don't understand.

Neither Tithing nor Sabbath nor Circumcision is part of the new covenant, that's why Paul and Bandanas were sent to the Apostle and elders in Jerusalem to know what the Holy Spirit says about these laws that came with the old covenant. Act 15:1-2

The Apostles and the elders in Jerusalem said:

“The apostles and the elders, your brothers, to those brothers in Antioch, Syria, and Ci·liʹcia who are from the nations: Greetings! Since we have heard that some went out from among us and caused you trouble with what they have said, trying to subvert you, although we did not give them any instructions,we have come to a unanimous decision to choose men to send to you together with our beloved Barʹna·bas and Paul, men who have given up their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. We are therefore sending Judas and Silas, so that they also may report the same things by word of mouth. For the holy spirit and we ourselves have favored adding no further burden to you except these necessary things: to keep abstaining from things sacrificed to idols, from blood, from what is strangled, and from sexual immorality. If you carefully keep yourselves from these things, you will prosper. Good health to you! Act 15:23-29

So neither Tithing nor Sabbath nor Circumcision has anything to do with Christianity! smiley

High priest don't demand Tithe from anyone, I've corrected this your lie before.

Jesus didn't call Himself High Priest, so how can people give him Tithe?

Besides, their were already High Priest during the day of Jesus, so Jesus can't just be claiming to be an High Priest when He is not from Levites.

Meanwhile let me correct you on some things you you don't understand.

Neither Tithing nor Sabbath nor Circumcision is part of the new covenant
You're a liar!

Sabbath, Tithe and Circumcision are part of ETERNAL practices even before making it to the law.

You'll I already explained this in my first post just that Chirst brought their true MEANING.

You already agreed that both people must GIVE SOMETHING BACK TO JESUS like Melchizedek.

So going back now to claim Tithe isn't part of the new covenant is delusional.

It was that same truth made you to say, what Jesus demands is our TIME and TIME is MONEY.

It's evident you're agreed that scripture supported TITHE but as usual defending doctrine and not the scripture is the reason you're trying to spin or reverse your words.

This has nothing about Tithe.

The office of High Priest exists today and God's command is for people to give Tithe to the High Priest.

So neither Tithing nor Sabbath nor Circumcision has anything to do with Christianity! smiley
You're a liar!

The writer of the book of Hebrew won't go that length to call Jesus the High Priest in ORDER OF MELCHIZEDEK for nothing.

Let the truth hit you hard!

So all the churches that aren't preaching tithe, Circumcision and Sabbath (Saturday worship) are liars shey?
My guy take care! wink

No!

The point here is that any church collecting Tithe are not doing anything wrong.

The most misconception is that TITHE IS NOT MEANT FOR CHRISTIAN.

If any church DECIDED not to collect TITHE, good for them.

Even most churches that didn't collect Tithe create other avenues to generate money.

This is where you spoiled the whole thing!

How can you say God commanded something and at the same time some churches are not practicing it yet you want to admit that they are Christians and such is OK for them?

That's why you and your friends are always at loggerheads with Jehovah's Witnesses because to Jehovah's Witnesses whatever we are sure God mandated for his worshipers must be practiced any group not doing what God says are not worshiping that God who commanded it.

So you're not a Christian as i've always told you real disciples of Christ must have the same line of thought on what God required of His worshipers {John 17:22; 1Corinthians 1:10; Ephesians 4:3} it's pagans that contradicts one another yet agrees they're worshiping the same God! smiley

TITHING IS SIMPLY HONOURING AND LOVING AS CONTAINED IN THE 10 COMMANDMENTS AND ITS SUMMARY GIVEN BY THE LORD.

TITHING IS HONOUR GOD, HONOUR YOUR PARENTS AND LOVE YOURSELVES LIKE YOURSELVES.

This is where it's evident that you don't understand even what you've been saying since.

Sabbath is a commandment
Circumcision is a commandment
Tithe is a commandment

But these 3 three predated the law.

Today you circumcised your son.

Yet you made it clear before that circumcision isn't A CHRISTIAN thing.

Can you see how confused you are?

Today, you can DECIDE to go to your hall ANY DAY you choose because Christ has consummated the Sabbath day.

Is that practice Biblical? Yes!

That is the same thing with Tithe!

That's why you and your friends are always at loggerheads with Jehovah's Witnesses because to Jehovah's Witnesses whatever we are sure God mandated for his worshipers must be practiced any group not doing what God says are not worshiping that God who commanded it.
So where did God says you should go to hall on Sunday or any other day?

So you're not a Christian as i've always told you real disciples of Christ must have the same line of thought on what God required of His worshipers {John 17:22; 1Corinthians 1:10; Ephesians 4:3} it's pagans that contradicts one another yet agrees they're worshiping the same God! smiley
He has started his ranting!

I'm not the one who claimed:

1. The name Christian is cursed and bastardized

2. As a result of being cursed and bastardized, our gods have given us a new name.

3. Whosoever thinks he belongs to Christ as a Christian should think twice.

But the same you is the one who knows WHO IS A CHRISTIAN OR NOT.

Anyways, I know you're look for a way to divert attention as usual again grin cheesy grin grin grin
