Re: Tithing…Is it a command?
Just so some of you know that tithing is taught from the Bible not the koran. You say it was only for the OT, point taken. Do you not use anything from the OT or do you intentionally violate everything that is OT. I remember when I was a boy being taught to not work on Sunday.(unless you had an ox in the ditch). I don't believe that teaching is for the NT church, but I believe this country was a much better place when we held them values. Many of those OT principles work very well. I don't think we should force anything on people the apostles didn't teach, but some here act like tithing didn't even come from the Bible.
By some of the tones you are setting it makes you sound hateful. Although you may disagree with someone on their stances concerning tithing last I heard we are free to make choices. No one is being made to tithe or not to tithe. If you walk out on God because you feel 10% is too steep, it doesn't matter if the teaching is correct or not because you have other problems. If you disagree with the tithe don't do it, but continue to walk with God and follow all the other apostolic teachings that is clearly defined.
