Hard to give the church even 10% when the government's taking 50%.

I'm thinking that when the Bible was written, taxes were much lower.

The tithe under old testament law was a tax on the Hebrews - it is far more complicated than Christian pastors make it when they cherry-pick parts of it to beat their congregation down about giving (to them).

Regardless of the complexities it does not change the absolute truth that Christ removed us from the law. So beyond a basic bible history lesson the Old Testament tithe has no relevance to the New Covenant body of Christ. What does it say about the church and those we place in the pulpit that it is one of the most frequently heard sermons on Sunday’s?

During the time of Moses and before the Kings, those were THE TAXES.
