Tithing is an Old Testament Legalism.
It sure is great for funding “Pastors” and “Church” buildings.
Non-sense. Jesus didn’t change the law. He said so.
If not for funding Pastors and Churches, what are you doing to help further the gospel.
Do you have a battlement built around the roof of your house, to keep guests from falling off? It is the law.
Jesus fulfilled the law and I live under His new covenant.
When he told the Pharisees they should pay their tithes, he was speaking to a group of legalistic Jews who were indeed living under "the law"
Jesus Himself lived under the law and He did it to perfection, so we wouldn't have to struggle to do the impossible. His blood paid the price of our freedom and salvation.
I'll add, any preacher who preaches tithing as a New Testament command is being dishonest or is ignorant and I don't know which is worse. Either course is damaging.
