Thanks for the research —

You’re welcome. I hate re-inventing the wheel and arguing the same thing over and over. And over. :-)

I was challenged in church today when the message was tithing. To me, Israel was a theocracy and tithing was what we now call “taxes”.

And I said to my wife, Jesus mentioned it once and then chastising Jewish leaders in past tense, and sure enough, the pastor said, “And some people think it is an old testament law but Jesus talked of it too!” And then he brings up the exact verse I had just told my wife about.

There seem to be more than just a couple of things I break from traditional teaching on.
