Were tithes ever required by Jesus or the Apostles?

I found these verses.

Matthew 23:23
Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.
Matthew 23:22-24 (in Context) Matthew 23 (Whole Chapter)
Luke 11:42
But woe unto you, Pharisees! for ye tithe mint and rue and all manner of herbs, and pass over judgment and the love of God: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.
Luke 11:41-43 (in Context) Luke 11 (Whole Chapter)
Luke 18:12
I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess.
Luke 18:11-13 (in Context) Luke 18 (Whole Chapter)
Hebrews 7:5
And verily they that are of the sons of Levi, who receive the office of the priesthood, have a commandment to take tithes of the people according to the law, that is, of their brethren, though they come out of the loins of Abraham:
Hebrews 7:4-6 (in Context) Hebrews 7 (Whole Chapter)
Hebrews 7:6
But he whose descent is not counted from them received tithes of Abraham, and blessed him that had the promises.
Hebrews 7:5-7 (in Context) Hebrews 7 (Whole Chapter)
Hebrews 7:8
And here men that die receive tithes; but there he receiveth them, of whom it is witnessed that he liveth.
Hebrews 7:7-9 (in Context) Hebrews 7 (Whole Chapter)
Hebrews 7:9
And as I may so say, Levi also, who receiveth tithes, payed tithes in Abraham.
Hebrews 7:8-10 (in Context) Hebrews 7 (Whole Chapter)
Result pages:Previous / 1 2

Looks like most of the tithe payers in the New Testiment were Hypo-crites.

I can not find a requirement.

No.

2Co 9:7 KJV Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.

We CAN GIVE tithes, but it is not a law any more.

But tithes... come on. I mean less than a good tip????? lol

AT LEAST give tithes, but it is not a law for us in the New Testament.

9And as I may so say, Levi also, who receiveth tithes, payed tithes in Abraham.

10For he was yet in the loins of his father, when Melchisedec met him.

11If therefore perfection were by the Levitical priesthood, (for under it the people received the law,) what further need was there that another priest should rise after the order of Melchisedec, and not be called after the order of Aaron?

12For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law.


The law changed after JESUS.

16Who is made, not after the law of a carnal commandment, but after the power of an endless life.
THE LAW OF A COMMAND IS CARNAL?????

We're not under law-type mentality any more where we are cursed if we do not pay tithes. We should GIVE, but we will only lack blessing if we do not give today. If we want to be blessed, then GIVE. But 10% Man, that is the least we can do for the Lord. God may want 20%, 40% or 100% at times!
