Tithing is Old Testament, thats why Jesus never collected Tithes.

Under the old they were not children of God.
So paid tithes which is 10% tax.

We are under the New Testament and children of God, so are *free* of tithes.

Mat 17KJV
25] He saith, Yes. And when he was come into the house, Jesus prevented him, saying, What thinkest thou, Simon? of whom do the kings of the earth take custom or tribute? of their own children, or of strangers?
26] Peter saith unto him, Of strangers. Jesus saith unto him, Then are the children free.


That's why Jesus never collected tithes.
Tithes is a Law, compelled.

God wants FREEWILL.

2 Corinthians 9:7
Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give;
not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.

Freewill offering is good, not a law like tithes.

PS
Nothing like seed offering, God as already given us all FREELY

1 Corinthians 2:12
Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God;
that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.

Was Jesus a Levite?

Old testament yet the disciples kept The Law of the Sabbath.

Stop listening to pastors' shits, read the bible yourself to see what it Said, Directly.

the law of the sabbath was done away with.

John 7:23
If a man on the sabbath day receive circumcision, that the law of Moses should not be broken;
are ye angry at me, because I have made a man every whit whole on the sabbath day?

Yet after the event of John 7:23 they kept the Sabbath, dream on

Do you even understand what u quoted?
It reaffrims that work can be done on the sabbath.

John 7:23

It is not, only greedy people make it look so.
When they want anything from God, they cry, fast,and desperately look for an answer but whenever they want to give to God, they begin to rationalize.

Excellent!

There is nothing excellent there Sir. Jesus was not a Levite. There wasn't any prophet that ever collected tithe. He never even entered into the temple to perform any priestly duties.

It may not be a sin no to tithe, but non-tithers are missing out a lot of God’s blessings.
We must understand that tithing in the Bible is pre-mosaic law. It is actually a covenant financial relationship with God for man’s blessings. Bible recorded that Abraham gave tithe of all its returns to Melchizedek, the priest of God. And blessed be the most high God, which hath delivered thine enemies into thy hand. And he gave him tithes of all. Gen. 14:20
Bible also recorded that Jacob pledged a tithe during one of it a prayers. And this stone, which I have set for a pillar, shall be God's house: and of all that thou shalt give me I will surely give the tenth unto thee.Gen18:22. These examples showed that the patriarchs willingly commit into tithing in the first place before God commanded it to be a law. Tithing a financial principle of involving God in your business and money affairs and it has a lot of great blessings when done in faith. The commandments of God are not grievous they are mainly for our gains. Heb. 7 especially vs 8 also confirm that God approves of tithing.
