And the thing is that...

once the discussion is said and done....

once we can agree on things such as the tithe not carrying over into the NT..

Once we can agree that these verses are being misused and twisted from their original message and intent when used as a "threat" of sorts about tithing...

Then... we all agree that a tenth is a great rule of thumb.

We could really accomplish something in these discussions if we could ever get past the constant having to answer for things we are not trying to accomplish.

We aren't against giving... we are against the misuse and misapplication of scripture. We are against a lie and we are for the truth.
I look forward to your studies also, Digging!

I agree with your whole post here. And, YES - 10% is a great rule of thumb.
