Re: Your tithes were already paid.

1) nowhere can we see God command tithes prior to the law
2)It doesn't say whether he did or did not. (Where did Jacob get the idea though?)
3)I don't think we can make it mandatory, but honestly we don't control people into giving any way. I have found that people who love God look for ways to give (I don't say that to mean that non tithers don't love God). I have seen many personal circumstances where people held back because of wrong motivations.

We must teach people that giving is mandated, but tithing is just a method. We can teach tithing as "a" way to demonstrate trust and worship to God, and give scripture for precedent. Love people either way and show no respect of persons regardless.
