Jesus called it LAW in Matt and so Did Paul in Hebrews. If it were an eternal principal would'nt Jesus or paul resort back to it then?

Generally what you say is true, more or less. Reinstatement of tithing actually saw very little success until somewhere around the ninth century AD. Reinstatement being the key word here. Even then it was agricultural and not monetary. The monetary tithe was much later. Because a tithe of money was nothing less than scandalous and directly contradicted the law of Moses that it was supposedly based on.
Search for the Tithe Commutation Act. Better yet let me post a link:

There is a lot of information here.
