The Truth is my brethren and friends, Acts 15 and 21 are crucial documents relating to tithing because they describe the struggle of the FIRST CHURCH COUNCIL to deal with how the Law should apply to the Jews and Gentiles. Acts 15:1 And certain men which came down from Judea taught the brethren and said, Unless you are circumcised after the manner of Moses, you cannot be saved. (I've even heard of ministers that proclaim that if you don't tithe, that you cannot get in heaven. Now for sure, that is a DIFFERENT GOSPEL, my friend.) To have the galls to attempt to put the law above the redeeming blood of Christ! But listen to Acts 15:5. There rose up certain of the sect of the Pharisees which believed, saying That it was needful to circumcise them (Gentiles) and to command them to keep the law of Moses. When you continue this chapter and 21 you will see that after Paul heard of this heresy that it was on. Paul and Barnabas reasoned with them at this council and even Peter rose up in 15:7-11. The Apostle Peter, second in leadership to James, reminded the church that he had personally witnessed the Gentiles receiving the Holy Spirit simply through faith and apart from keeping the Law. {Yet in my book, you will see and understand the craftiness of the Tithe teachers will attempt to justify their teaching by proclaiming that tithing was before the law, But what they won't tell you is that it was a common practice of the pagans in Abrams time. a full understanding of this perversion is within my book} Also as mentioned in my book is the thought that we are serving a God of the old covenant and new, and what about the Son of God Who shed His blood for us to establish a better covenant which was established upon better promises? He.8:6] As the Head of the church, what does He say to the body of His? During this CORONAVIRUS PANDEMIC when people are really suffering to the point of death and separation of loved ones jobs are being lost, unemployment checks are late, children going hungry, still, the call for the tithe is intact. What kind of God are they representing? Even in the time of famine when the Lord chastened His people under the old covenant and law, He did not require the people to tithe, because they couldn't grow crops and the animals were well you get the point. I believe with all my heart saints that those that teach the heresy and perversion of this so-called NT tithing, ARE NOT THEMSELVES LIVING A LIFE BY FAITH in trusting the Lord to supply their needs. And of course, I believe in the support of those that proclaim the Gospel to those that teach and preach the Holy scriptures. Why not just ask the congregation to give according to how the Lord has prospered them by faith and from the heart as the Apostle Paul taught in 2 Co.9:7 It's all about the heart. In fact, the tithe is never mentioned by this WISE MASTER BUILDER!

This is, at last, an in-depth look at the teaching of tithing and its relevance or irrelevance to New Testament believers. In this book you will discover the truth about tithing and learn how to follow the Spirit in this important matter.
