Salvation is like a certificate.
Can you get a certificate without obeying the rules and regulations of the school , like passing the required subjects , paying your school fees and obeying the school's rules and regulations ?

Salvation is not an automatic thing , there are so MANY THINGS OR COMMANDMENTS TO OBEY.

One of them is tithes payments .

ARE THE ONE THAT WROTE THIS OR ANOTHER PERSON?

YOU ARE WRONG SIS. SALVATION CANNOT BE OBTAINED BY OUR OBEDIENCE.. BY DEEDS OF THE LAW SHALL NO FLESH BE JUSTIFIED.

WE CAN ONLY BE SAVE BY OUR BELIEVE IN CHRIST JESUS...

The essence of the thread is not to get an answer to the question

I think there have been much debate on tithing recently that salvation is no more bring preached, that was actually why I created the thread

Salvation far more out way tithe payment or good works. Salvation is based solely on faith in Christ and his work on the cross.
Tiithe is a principle adopted to promote God's work on earth. A christian will never hate what glorifies Christ name never rather he will promote it.
I personally support tithing because it glorifies Christ.
Ungodly people spend money in clubs, drinking joint even contribute money monthly for their clubs why because they want their club to grow but some supposed christians fight against anything that will promote God's kingdom, no wonder Jesus said that the children of the world are in their generation wiser than the children of the light.
Luke 16:8 And the lord commended the unjust steward, because he had done wisely: for the children of this world are in their generation wiser than the children of light.

You are saved by grace unto good works - Ephesians 2:10. And tithe is a good work. So anyone who is saved ought to tithe and even give more.

A trillion tithing can never equal what Christ has done on the cross.



Tithing is good way to give to God's work but not a law.

good works +grace=hell
good works is natural to a man who is saved.

Salvation And Tithe, Which Is Greater
You must each decide in your heart how much to give.
And don't give reluctantly or in response to pressure.
(i.e. you shouldn't be sorry that you gave or feel forced to give)
"For God loves a person who gives cheerfully.

- 2 Corinthians 9:7

"Salvation And Tithe, Which Is Greater" is a comparison of apples and oranges
and to make matters worse, one of the fruits is past its use by date and actually is now stale.

1) The obligatory tithe imposed by the Mosaic law (i.e. the Levitical tithe also known as the Mosaic Law tithe)
2) The obligatory tithe imposed by the christian gatherings law
(i.e. ecclesiastical tithe, where christian gatherings, taxes its members a tenth, 1/10, 10% and possibly 0.1 too, of their financial income)
3) The obligatory tithe imposed by custom law (i.e. Abraham's tithing was done, due to the social setting of that time)
4) The obligatory tithe imposed by monarchy law (i.e. tenth of seed and of vineyards, given to the king's officials and servants)

All taxed, obligatory or mandatory tithes, in the form of any of the above
no more have any intrinsic value or importance because each is no longer fresh and pleasant to eat

Consequently each and/or all have been superceded by the new kid on the block, toast of the town, revolutionary way of giving,
where believers are instructed or urged in 2 Corinthians 9:7 above, to do

2 Corinthians 9:7, by the way actually, is a rehashed principle God HAS always endorsed,
as evident in Exodus 25:2, Exodus 35:29, Deuteronomy 15:10 & 1 Chronicles 29:9

God came down to earth because of the salvation of soul(s) and not because of tithe
Taxed, obligatory or mandatory tithe is now redundant and unnecessary
Taxed, obligatory or mandatory tithe is no longer needed
Taxed, obligatory or mandatory tithe reached the end of its lifespan, the moment the temple was destroyed

they are not the same.
Salvation is far more important.
How do you even compare salvation to tithing?
A trillion tithing can never equal what Christ has done on the cross.

Tithing is good way to give to God's work but not a law.
1) Why is a specified tenth, 10%, 0.1 or 1/10 (i.e. tithe) a good way to give to God's work?
2) Considering tithing is not a law, just like you've correctly stated,
then what is wrong with giving an unspecified amount or percentage?
3) What is wrong with giving more or in giving less than the tenth, 10%, 0.1 or 1/10? (i.e. tithe)

All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.
From the scriptures you have holiness, righteousness, salvation, healing, deliverance, prosperity e.t.c. These are what should be taught in the church. Not neglecting on at the expense of another. They all must be taught to have a balanced Christian life. That's what is lacking in many churches of today.many concentrate in one area at the expense of other areas.
