You assume too much. I repeat myself: A tithe was REQUIRED under the law. There was no love involved. Laying by in store (voluntarily giving) is NOT tithing; it is a free-will gift of love, not duty.

And because you are so misinformed about tithing verses giving, I’ll ignore your misinformed comments about me.

Why are you drawing such fine distinctions? First of all “tithe” merely means “one tenth”. If you’d rather I use the words “one tenth” instead of “tithe”, that’s fine. Second, who cares whether you call it a “free will gift of love” or a duty? Either way, its a good thing to do it, no? Finally, you still haven’t answered my question: why would one be less inclinded to give one tenth now than in Old Testament times, considering that the Saviour has now come?
