Re: Thither Tithes Tithing by by Uncle Hebert W
They always eventually come to the place in their studies when the question of whom to tithe to is asked. After all, we certainly can’t tithe to the Levites as required by law. And they never seem to think of the widows, orphans and strangers, for some strange reason. It always seems to be that the only logical answer is that you send the money to them. Funny how that works. And so it happens in this paper:
To Whom Should We Tithe?
It would be nice if we, as humans, could give our tithe to God personally.
Funny that you should ask. Jesus DID tell us how to give and it would be just like giving to Him.
And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.
And here’s how you do it:
For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:
[36] Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.
[37] Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?
38] When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?
[39] Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?
[40] And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.
For some reason they missed this instruction on how to give as unto the Lord. Maybe it’s missing in their Bible?
It reminds me of a country music lyric: They tell you to send your money to the Lord but they give you their address”.
