    Default TITHE: To give or not to give?


    Me and my pal were talking about tithing. we both have d same ideas and principles when it comes to tithing regardless what denomination one belongs to.

    As i heard of, TITHE before was a way of TAX to support the religious affairs and officers running d communities(gov't.). Eventually, religion and politics now are two separate things, same as true w/ tithe and tax.

    Is it still necessary and mandatory to give 10% of your income to the church when TAX is aready deducted from our wage?

    Im just wondering if you're in favor with Tithe or not, aside from your church offerings and charity thingies...

    thanks

    leviticus 27:30 says:
    30And all the tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land, or of the fruit of the tree, is the LORD's: it is holy unto the LORD.

    2 corinthians 9:7 says:
    7Each man should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.

    it is every genuine christian's duty to contribute in tithing...but then again, we have the freedom to follow it or not going parallel with the fact that we have the freedom to choose from righteousness or downfall...naa ra jd na sa individual kng naa siya'y kasingkasing nga mohatag para sa buluhaton sa Ginoo...

    but the bible did not tell that it's mandatory. a deduction from your minimum wage income.

    i copy your verse.

    2 corinthians 9:7 says:
    7Each man should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.

    it can also be a 10% of your time for God...

    as far as i know, the law of tithing was established during the old testament times so the verses that talks about the mechanics of tithing is found in the old testament...the new testament issues on tithing are more on the revision of the law...

    in the old testament times, it was mandatory...and it didnt directly mean about money since wala pa ma'y kwarta sauna like the ones we use nowadays...their tithes was more on the harvests and stuff like that then converted to silver or gold or those things they used as "money". and regarding with the new testament texts on tithing, it revises the law from the old testament...

    pero as i said, naa ra jd nato kng mohatag ta or not...dili ka sa church manubag but sa Ginoo...
