Once the NT begins, you have multiple verses written in the NT verses where mercy, justice and such ARE still upheld. Verses where Paul, Peter, John, etc ever mention tithing as a commnd to the NT saints? ZERO.

Folk Theology is a school of theology, not a made up description.

Yes Paul does mention tithing my friend gave you that. Y'all accused Abraham and Jacob of being Catholics.

We 'folk theologians' understand(as dumb as we are) they were not Catholics.

See Bible ignorance such as is shared here might make folks realize the preacher might be worth his money.

Now this brilliant student of theology has just told you everything written in Mt-Jn is not binding on the church today.

If you have judgment-mercy-faith in the church today then you must having tithing it is in the SAME verse spoken by the same man to the same people.
