Do we have to pay tithes?

[1ofthechosen]

I believe at Malachi 3:6 this whole context is widened from just the Levites. "For I am the Lord, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed."

And then 3:9 says "Ye are cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed me, this whole nation. He's not talking to the nation of Levi bro, that makes no sense. And then 10 where He says "Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it." The storehouse was created during the surplus in the book of Chronicles. The only people that benefited from it being full were 1. The Levites, 2. The feasts, and 3. The poor. Which is another reason why I believe this is speaking to "the whole nation." Everyone. Otherwise it wouldn't have brought the punishment that it did upon them. But I do believe the priests were a problem. But not the whole complete problem. Do to the consequence it brought that He didn't speak to them for 400 years; this included everyone not just the priests. It doesn't make sense in light of all that.
