I am a Pastor that believes that thithing under the Old Testament does not apply to the New Testament Christian. This does not mean we should not give, however, the giving should be spirit lead and not under the punishmemt of a curse as discribed in Malachi 3:9. You comments and insights are welcome.

I am sure there is a one stop thread for tithing..but how do you take Matthew 23:23?

Jesus was speaking to and scolding the pharisees who were under the law to tithe.
Thanks

Matthew 23:23
quote:
Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You give a tenth of your spices--mint, dill and cummin. But you have neglected the more important matters of the law--justice, mercy and faithfulness. You should have practiced the latter, without neglecting the former.
Seems to me Jesus was advocating the tithe.

Thank you all for you input on my question. The law of tithing according to the Mosaic law were to be brought to the Temple. However, the temple was destroyed in AD 70. Additionally, thithes were to be given to the Levites for the service to God in the Temple.
