And you still refuse to answer certain questions which are posited to you. How does the resurrected Christ now receive tithes and who does He receive them from? This is about the 8th time now that I've asked you this question either in public or in private. Ignoring the question and its answer isn't going to make it magically disappear.
Ill give you some hints however. How do you give Christ your tithes since He is not physically on earth? Do you burn those bills on an altar?
Abraham paid a one time spoils of war tax to a priest. It wasn't even on his own substance. It was on retrieved stolen property of others.
Is that the kind of tithe you are suggesting? We need to pay it according to the word, right?
The gentile believers were told 4 things. Don't eat anything strangled, don't eat blood, don't eat anything offered to idols, don't fornicate, and pay your tithes....to someone. Oops! The tithe part isn't there.
If the NT does not condone one person elevating himself above the sheep, who gets the tithe money?
In all of Pauls teaching along with the others, never mentions tithing as a law upon the believers in the new covenant, and folks are going to hell right and left for 'robbing God', why were the writers silent about such a command that would send violators to perish in the lake of fire? How cruel was that?
Just one one more for good measure. The rich man tithes with ease. The poor man tithes sweating bullets. Sounds fair to me!
