There is no mandate to keep the tithe law after Jesus died on the cross and said Paid in full. It is just a biblical error to quote any mandate as a
condition of the blessing and favor of God other than the payment Jesus made on the cross to freely give you all things. Tithe advocates are trying to
throw Christians back under a curse they were never under because God was not speaking to Gentiles under the Old Covenant only Jews. He infact told
the Jews to wipe out the pagan Gentiles in the Old Testament. Read your whole bible cover to cover to gain this understanding. Gentile Christians were
grafted into the New Covenant of Grace. His daily Grace is unearned and unmerited given freely because of the payment Jesus made in full on his
cross.
Read Galatians 4:24 These two women serve as an illustration of God's two covenants. The first woman, Hagar, represents Mount Sinai where people
received the law that enslaved them.
Read Galatians 4:30 But what do the Scriptures say about that? "Get rid of the slave and her son, for the son of the slave woman will not share the
inheritance with the free woman's son."
Galatians 5:1
" It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery".
Galatians 5:2 "Mark my words! I, Paul, tell you that if you let yourselves be circumcised, Christ will be of no value to you at all". ( the same goes
for the tithe law if you read Galatians 5:4 )
Galatians 5:4
"For if you are trying to make yourselves right with God by keeping the law, you have been cut off from Christ! You have fallen away from God's
grace".
Acts 13:39
"Everyone who believes in him is declared right with God--something the law of Moses could never do".
Romans 10:4
"Christ is the end of the Law for righteousness for everyone who believes"
Read Galatians 3:13
"Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law ".....
The Holy Spirit resides in every regenerated born again believer to guide them in all things. This is far better than the external Old Covenant on
tablets of stone
Understand 2nd Corinthians 3:6
" He has enabled us to be ministers of his new covenant. This is a covenant not of written laws, but of the Spirit. The old written covenant ends in
death; but under the new covenant, the Spirit gives life."
The Old Covenant ends in death because of endless burnt offerings and the dying of spotless Lambs. But Christianity 101:
1st Peter 3:18 For Christ also suffered once for sins, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but
made alive in the Spirit.
Matthew 23:23 Jesus said tithing was below mercy and faith and this was said when the tithe law was still in effect before he said Paid in full on the
cross
There is not one demand to keep any law for favor from God after Jesus said Paid in full. The Holy Spirit within every regenerated born again believer
has replaced the outward external law.
