You got it all wrong bro. Jesus did not validate tithe by that scripture he was just telling the pharisees their obligations as Jews. Did u ever asked why Jesus never paid tithe nor any of disciples teach it and pay it? Even with all the many doctrinal teachings of Paul and Peter they never mentioned tithe as a must.

Maybe for clarity purpose you can read Hebrews chapter to see that tithe is part of the law and no longer a requirement under Jesus priesthood.

Nope, you are the one getting it wrong, tithe was before the law because Abraham tithed, Jacob tithed. Jesus mentioned that tithing should also be practiced as well as the other ordinances of justice and fairness.

In Hebrews its stated that the men who die receive tithe here(referring to the priest here) but in heaven it is also received by Jesus. So when Christians pay their tithe here, it is also recorded and received in heaven.

Stop confusing and twisting scriptures to mislead folks.Scriptures is clear.Take it or leave it.
After all nobody is forcing you to tithe!

Better to look stupid giving God tithe and be blessed with tangible returns than eat the tithe out of greed because I want to be wise yet be a spiritual daft and a loser in the end.

If I choose to pay tithe,what's your problem? did we tithers tell you we needed your opinion. Better take your nonsense opinion to the rotten garbage where it belongs.

Afterall no one has threatened you or put a gun in your head that you must tithe because it's not by force.

Only gullible Nigerians listen to this shit

Rockfeller was the first American billionaires.

Exxon Mobil, the no 1 oil company in world descended from Rockfellers oil company.

It was even said Rockfeller gave about 140 million dollars to his church at one time and everybody and the media were concerned and questioning him. He was a tither and God blessed him.

Whether you tithe or not is not my problem, but I know tithing is commanded by God for one to be under an open heaven and to have the devourers rebuked. So I remain an unrepentant and unapologetic tither for ever.

Rockfeller is my inspiration in the tithing walk of obedience.

Ultimately, Hebrews 7 is not at all about tithing, but is about Jesus being a superior High Priest. Nevertheless, this text is often brought up in connection with Genesis 14:18-20 to defend the practice of tithing in churches today. It is argued that Abraham gave a tenth of his income to Melchizedek, and that since Melchizidek is a “type” of Jesus, then Abraham, and all descendants of Abraham, whether physical descendants by blood or spiritual descendants by faith, must also tithe to Jesus. A pastor who teaches the passage this way will argue that we give our tithe to Jesus by giving it to the priestly representative, which in our day is the pastor or the church.

But notice that this is not at all what these Scriptures are saying or teaching.

First, nowhere is there a command in either text for subsequent generations to follow the example of Abraham. In both Scriptures, Abraham’s tithe to Melchizedek is described, but not prescribed.But secondly, we have even missed what the text says about Abraham’s tithe. Genesis 14 implies what Hebrews 7 makes explicitly clear: Abraham gave a tenth of the spoils of war to Melchizedek. This was not a tenth of Abraham’s possessions, nor was it a tenth of Abraham’s annual income, nor was it even a regular offering which Abraham made to the local priest. This was a one-time gift from possessions which Abraham had just captured in war, the remainder of which, he returned to their original owners, the kings and people of Sodom and Gomorrah

Paying tithes was never a law from God to man, God encouraged us humans to help one another by giving. Jacod was the one that promised God a tenth of whatever gave him... Genesis 28 vs 22. God doesn't need your tithe, he needs your heart of giving, greedy pastors that lie in the name of God need your tithes to enrich themselves. Stop enriching them and help those in need.

please answer the question [/b] [b]what special blessing has come to you that eludes others who don't pay tithe?

Pro-tithing advocates use Abraham's tithing as an example or justification. This is clearly not right. In Gen 14:20 Abraham didn't tithe his earnings to Melchizedek but the spoils of war. He never even took anything out of the spoils for himself but only asked that they gave his men what they'd eat from it, least they say they made Abraham rich. You see, Abraham was operating under a higher covenant because he was a friend of God who feared God and walked in righteousness, and God had pronounced blessing upon him. It was never because he tithed cos it was never reported that he ever tithed his income.

Jews Do Not Tithe Today

Thankfully, Jewish theologians know better than their Christian counterparts. They are well aware that only Levites have the right to receive tithe of the people. After all, the Jewish leaders have the Old Testament as their Scripture and that’s what it commands. And since there is no Temple in existence (and consequently no ordained Levites or Priests serving in a Temple), then a major factor in fulfilling the laws of tithing does not exist in our modern world.
In regard to this, it may be profitable to relate an event that happened to me over thirty–five years ago when I was just starting to study theology in college. A letter had been given to me for answering. It was from a woman who heard that modern Jews were not tithing. She wanted to know whether the information was true, and if so, why the Jews seemingly violated the plain laws of the Bible which spoke of tithing as a law to be obeyed?

Having read the letter, I began to share her concern. To resolve the matter I telephoned three rabbis in the Los Angeles area for their explanation. Much to my dismay, all three independently of each other informed me that no religious Jew should tithe today. I was startled at their replies. This appeared to be evidence that the Jews were so lax with their biblical interpretation that they were abandoning even the simple words of their own Scripture about the laws of tithing.

By the time I spoke with the last rabbi, my youthful indignation was beginning to emerge. But that rabbi then wisely began to show me my ignorance (not his) in the whole matter. First, he admitted that none of his congregation paid one penny of tithe that was demanded in the Old Testament. He then said: "If any member of my synagogue paid tithe in the scriptural manner, he would be disobeying the law of God—he would besinning against God."

I was staggered by his answer. He went on to inform me that since the Bible demands that the tithe be paid to Levites, he said it would be wrong to pay it to anyone else. And further, because there is presently no official Levitical order of Priests ministering at a Temple in Jerusalem, this makes it illegal at this period to pay any biblical tithe. He went on to say, however, that the moment a Temple is rebuilt, with its altar in operation and with the priesthood officiating at that altar (and the Levites there to assist them), then every Jew who lives in the tithing zones mentioned in the Bible will be required to tithe according to the biblical commands.

This teaching was a revelation to me (as it may be to some of our readers), but the rabbi gave the proper biblical answers. To pay the biblical tithe at this time, without Levites and Priests in their regular ordained offices and doing service in the Temple, would be "sin" both to the giver and the receiver. The rabbi told me: "If we are to obey the law, we cannot pay tithe unless we pay it to the ones ordained by God to accept that tithe."

The rabbi explained that though he was the chief rabbi of his synagogue, he was not a Levite. He said he was descended from the tribe of Judah and was thereby not eligible to receive tithe. The same disqualification applied even to Christ Jesus while he was on earth since he was also reckoned as having come from the tribe of Judah. This same restriction was applicable to the activities of the apostle Peter (because he was as well from Judah) and it applied to the apostle Paul (because he was from the tribe of Benjamin). Neither Christ nor those apostles were Levites so they were all disqualified from receiving any part of the biblical tithe. It is just that simple.
And listen, if Christ, Peter and Paul did not use the biblical tithe for any of their work in teaching the Gospel, Christian ministers today should not use the biblical tithe either. The Jewish religious authorities are wise enough to read what the Word of God states about the tithe and, thankfully, they abide by it. But our Gentile preachers and priests care very little what the biblical texts actually state and go merrily on their way by devising their own laws of tithing which are different from those of the Bible.

The rabbi then gave me some information on the method that many Jews use today to secure adequate funds with which to operate their religious organizations. He went on to say that the activities of his synagogue were financially supported through the adoption of the "patron system" by its members. That is, families would buy seats in the synagogue for various prices each year. The rabbi mentioned that many of his congregation actually paid more than a tenth of their income to get better seats in the synagogue. This method for raising funds is perfectly proper (from the biblical point of view) if Jews wish to use it. This is because the money is paid to the synagogue and not to an ordained Levitical priesthood.

The final rabbi was correctly interpreting the teaching of the Holy Scripture. While many Christian ministers today teach that Christians may be in danger of missing salvation itself if they do not pay tithe to the church, Jewish rabbis know better than to say such a thing. They realize that it is biblically improper (actually, it is a blatant disobedience to the laws of the Bible) for anyone to pay or to receive the biblical tithe today. And any minister or ecclesiastical leader who uses the biblical tithe (or any one who pays to a minister the biblical tithe) is asinner in the eyes of God.
