Acts15:28-29 For it seemed good to the Holy Ghost, and to us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things; That ye abstain from meats offered to idols, and from blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication: from which if ye keep yourselves, ye shall do well. Fare ye well.

Because tithing was not a part of the law, it existed before the Law, it was just simply added to the Law, where it was expanded.
There was not need to remind the believers of what was common knowledge and was commonly practiced by them.
Actually the teaching was endorsed in the Book of Hebrews, of course those who like to twist the scriptures twist it to mean that Paul was preaching against tithing, when in reality in Hebrews he was reaffirming the tithe.
Those twisters of the Scriptures twist the scriptures to their own destruction.
