Jesus could have turned stones into bread, yet there were plenty of people who gave him and the Apostles of their substance.
Go and enjoy your meal at McDonalds where a poor preacher is probably flipping the burgers you will eat since, he has to supplement his income because the miserly, stingy, God robbing anti-tithe crowd do not want to pay him for all his efforts.
Go ahead and muzzle your ox till he starves.

What a baseless argument. Leaders are called to serve the bride of Christ, not demand money out of her for services rendered. And I never said anything about not giving or blessing the ministry with offerings. What I'm refuting is the unbiblical argument that there is some tithing system ordained by God to support ministers. A minister is called to minister to the body whether or not he gets paid.
