Whether I am or not is moot.

No. It is exactly the point since you are urging others to live by the law and not grace. When was the last time that you sacrificed a ram?

Btw, He said He came to fulfill the law.

And you are telling people to ignore Jesus’ direct words regarding this subject.

What is your resistance to tithing? Do you not feel your church needs your tithe? Do you not support the elderly in your church or families in need locally, or missionaries? Where do you think these monies come from but by tithing?

You trust God with your soul, yet keep your finances out of bounds.

Tithing applies. It shows up in the NT with the churches Paul starts helping him during his travels with monetary gifts. It is important, and proper for a Christian to tithe to his or her church.

Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.

18For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled

In context, it appears that Jesus will fulfill it, yet that may not be until Heaven and earth pass. And the Law stands.
