But you are correct BOTH instrumental music AND tithing predates the law. Tithing 430 years before the law. It was incorporated into the law. Jesus said to do it. Paul clearly alluded to it in 1Cor. 9 & Heb. 7.
And NO where did Paul ever say it was fulfilled and NOT binding on the NT church just like instrumental music. BOTH stand fall on the same premise can't do away with one without the other. You must become a Campbellite however the baptism issue might be a problem.
Think about it. Freewill offerings were instituted also IN the law and were part and parcle of the law like the tithe. However they existed like tithe before the law.
Not all of the laws are addressed elder ... in the NT ...yet you don't expect folks to practice them ...

again ...would you like me to list them for you ...

Jesus spoke to the Pharisees about their attitude towards giving ... not that they had to tithe ... and this of course was still UNDER THE LAW ... of course the UNDER THE LAW argument works when speaking about the thief on the cross, right????

Paul gives NO INSTRUCTIONS about tithing but alludes to it once in Hebrews when speaking about an OT situation.

You have no bible, Elder ... it's plain to see.
