Question: Did God give the Law as an expression of His expectations ? In other words when God gave the Law to Israel; did He expect them to obey it ?

Do you pay your tithes ? Oct 25, 2005 12:28 pm
Mood: 75, 893 Views
" Will a man rob God ? Yet you have robbed me ! But you say, In what way have we robbed you ? In tithes and offerings"

How often have you used Mal 3:8 to convict another Christian, that he or she should be tithing; ten percent of their income to God ?
Perhaps you even went so far as to tell him or her, that they should also tithe ten percent; of their time and talent. But is this correct......can money, time and talent be tithed ? In order to find the answer to this question; we must first understand the importance of praying for the Lords illumination( of scripture ) before beginning any study of the Bible. Then, we must study scripture; not only in its historical context; but also in its grammatical context. Once we understand; that the entire Bible ( both old and new testaments ) was written for the Christian believer. Yet, realizing that not everything in the Bible is directed toward the Christian; or is talking about the Christian ( this is one of the mistakes made by the word of faith teachers ); we will become good students of the Bible. Keeping that in mind, lets look at what the Bible says about tithing.

There are four questions which we must answer when addressing this subject.

They are:
1. What was tithed ?
2. Who received the tithe ?
3. What was the tithe used for ?
4. Where did the tithe have to be taken ?

Can you answer these questions ? Its going to take a little time to research this, so don't rush it. Then post your findings here.

" For as many as are of the works of the law are under a curse; for it is written, "Cursed is everyone who does not continue in all things which are written in the book of the law, to do them."

My reason for quoting the above verse, is because some years ago while a member of a church in Philadelphia PA; I became aware of false teaching, that was being taught concerning the Ten commandments. I was one of the adult Bible teachers at the church, and was leading a study in the book of James. While going through the forth chapter; of the book of James. I asked a question that started a debate about the law. The question was concerning verse 11; and was taken from the Serendipity Study Bible for groups. This is the question........ Is the law in verse 11 the same as that in the first chapter verse 25; the second chapter verse 8; and the second verse 12 ? Why or why not ? Do you know the answer ?
