Only the levites can collect the tithes, Jesus is of judah, Paul of benjamin, and none of the twelve disciples are levites. That’s why Jesus doesn’t take any tithe. When Jesus endorse the tithing by saying “Give to Caesar what is Caesar’s and to God what is God’s” and on the other time said “But woe to you Pharisees! For you tithe mint and rue and all manner of herbs, and pass by justice and the love of God. These you ought to have done, without leaving the others undone”, He asked the Jews to stick to their covenant with God under Mosaic law (old testament / covenant) but He himself (Jesus) and his disciples never request for tithes. I have been doing tithing since 1986, now i think (for myself), i have to give not because of tithing law but because of love and thanksgiving.

I read the quotes and they are almost saying the same thing. Chan is saying that 10% is really too little ” Each man should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.” 2 cor 9:6b and Piper is saying he hopes his sons go beyond 10%. I don’t think they disagree at all and I listen to both their sermons frequently.

I don’t agree with the thithing beging taught in the churches. The scriptues are being twisted. Many pastors will not search and study the scriptures in this area because they are fearful there will not be enough money to pay the bills. If however, they would teach a close relationship with Jesus Christ and if people were grateful for their salvation they will open up their hearts to giving. The rest is up to God. My church teaches tithing. I am wondering if I should be a member of a church that teachs false doctrine, which I believe it is. However, my church is a good church. We have a recovery program for alcoholics, drug addicts etc. Called Celbrate Recovery. My pastor is a very loving and kind person. I just wonder if I should keep what I believe the word teaches to myself and just let it go, and do what God shows me to do. I am one of the poor people in the church. I don’t have much. I give but not always 10%. I am retired and on social security. I can’t help how many older people in the church are being burdened by this teaching.

Hey Kristi, we do two or three a year. I’ve heard that Pinleake Church does them also. Are you interested in being baptized?
