Religious Tithing

[Dino246]

Nothing of the Old Testament law has been done away with. It is still applicable today for the Christian Church. Who shouldn't be eating pork, or breaking the sabbath.

Matthew 5:18
For truly I tell you, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished.

I strongly suggest you read Acts 15, Galatians 2-5, Hebrews 8, and all of Romans. Jesus fulfilled the Law and Christians are not under it.

There are two parts to the " Law ".
There is the ceremonial and the civil law.
Then there is the moral law.

The ceremonial law was completed by Jesus. That is why we don't offer animal sacrifices, eat kosher food, make fire, cook etc on the sabbath. ( to a strict Jew, using your phone on the sabbath is making fire and forbidden. )

The moral law, the ten Commandments are still inforce as Christians we obey them as a sign of our love for Jesus.

Jesus showed us that we are to worship in spirit not by keeping to places, times, rituals etc.

There isn’t even a single verse of Scripture suggesting that the Law is so divided. In contrast, Galatians 3:10 and James 2:10 clearly state that the Law is not divided.

 

[FollowerofShiloh]

This is such an interesting topic because we do not see Fasting, Tithing, well several things in the New Testament being done by the Apostles. But there's a Book dedicated to the Apostles teachings called the Didache and within those pages we see the Apostles teaching to Fast, and Paying Tithes.

The tithe, one-tenth, is the ideal of stewardship set forth in Scripture in the Old Testament tithe, and in Tradition, represented by The Didache

So somewhere the Apostles either decided or was taught by Jesus and was never written down to Pay Tithes.

If everything is accomplished then we must be in heaven, and the Jehovah witnesses are right about Jesus coming back in 1914, right? If not, there is VERY MUCH that still has NOT been accomplished yet.
Saul was a persecutor and murderer of the early church, even though he wrote about a third of the new testament. Saul prevented Peter from eating with the Jews. Saul instituted a policy of apartheid between Jews and Christians.
Jesus hated Saul, so he gave him a thorn in his side... and made Peter the ROCK that he would build his Church on.

Let’s go with what He meant by ‘everything’ and not inject our own ideas.

Saul prevented Peter from eating with the Jews. Saul instituted a policy of apartheid between Jews and Christians.
Jesus hated Saul, so he gave him a thorn in his side... and made Peter the ROCK that he would build his Church on.

None of that is in Scripture. Perhaps you’re reading the wrong book.

May I ask you how you formed your view of the apostle Paul?

I mean how did you arrive at a view that would necessarily set Paul into a serious place - almost as an antagonist?
