Your tithes were already paid.

Making a hero out of someone that can only parrot what you say is truly no proof at all for the argument. The fact is those that give their tithe every time they are blessed with a paycheck, truly are blessed with more than they gave. I sure don't want to miss out on anything God has for me. And those that don't, Do not.

This is a very good message taught by a man of God.
I hesatated posting this, but here goes. I know that those that hate preachers love this kind of stuff because it gives them food to chew on. Please at least listen to the whole thing before you criticize.

Elder G. Riggen
-God's Holy Tithe-

Now see? If his arguments can be easily picked apart, then why aren't they being picked apart? I mean it ought to be very simple. Just go through the scriptures, line upon line, precept upon precept, and show the following:

1. God commanded people under the old covenant to pay ten percent of their income 'from whatever source derived' to the priests.
2. Jesus and/or his apostles taught that Christians under the new covenant were to continue doing this, except it was to go to their local elder/pastor/bishop/church treasury.

I would think it would be a simple matter to lay it out. The fact nobody is willing to do that, but instead want to attack the character of those who lay out from the scripture the opposite view, or want to insinuate or claim that those who don't agree with the modern 'tithe' doctrine (so called) must be greedy, stingy, God-robbers, etc etc, indicates that the modern tithe teachers cannot support their doctrine with 'thus sayeth the Lord', from the Scriptures.

Remember, simply posting a verse or two that mentions 'tithing' does not prove the case, because the issue under discussion is 'what exactly IS the tithe commanded in Scripture?'
