Tithing is not a spiritual issue Tithing was for the Levities it was given from the increase of God's promised land. As stated earlier Abraham gave a tenth of the spoils of war.
To spiritualize that giving is a seed is not biblical. You have been dupted into that idea. The only planting and reaping of seed in the NT is the word of God.<{>Oh Oh just pray about it...well I have and much of what is called today Christianity is nothing more than hay wood a stubble.
When you see a beggar do you pass on by? Do you visit the motherless do you visit those in prison? Do you give a drink to thoses in need? Or do you just write a check drop in the plate and pass them by?
Again I say Tithing isn’t giving tithing is a directive from God.
And yes it is a spiritual issue. Try God in the matter he tells you to do this Himself.
I do not look for a reaping from the Tithe I give to God and his work. I give it joyfully from my heart. I was duped before I began to tithe, but I realized that the blessings of God would be poured down upon me when I do tithe.
But there isn’t much sense speaking of tithing to an unrepentant heart. FRiend Seek the Lord Ask Him what he wants you to do in this matter. I know in James we are told that “to know what is right to do and not do it is a sin”
I go where he wants me to go and a minister to those he wants me to minister to. Have you been with me in those long lonely nights at the hospital bedside with a hurting parent? Have you been with me when I sit with the widow just to talk as I go to mow her lawn.
FRiend you have the beam eye splinter thing real bad.
