Of course it's a conflict of interest. No educated person believes that tithing is binding on NT Christians. Christian pastors fall into the trap of...

Hi Stephanie, Welcome to the group. There are some solid people that can help you on the tithing issue. Russell and David both have PHD's. On the very first...
Hi Stephanie- <waving> ;-) Argument for not tithing. #1. Why tithe? What is tithing? Tithing was instituted to supply for the Levites, one the 12 tribes who...
What is it talking about in these 2 verses when it says of your hand? Deu 12:6 And thither ye shall bring your burnt offerings, and your sacrifices, and your...
Dear Group, To spice things up and balence out the group, I have invited someone who preaches Pro-Tithing doctrine on their website. They have asked me for...
Stephanie. Welcome to the group. Maybe debra will say hello also. My essay is only 5 pages long, not 15, so you ought to be able to read it quickly. The Randy...

Rusty, my question to you. If everything you have belongs to God, why do you only give him 10%? "Tithing" is contradictory to "stewardship." And it's not...
