    What's tithe?

    Comment


      1. Move to Washington state.
      2. Buy as much land as I could.
      3. Die sitting in a tree stand.

        Tithing is an Old Testament biblical concept. The tithe was a requirement of the law in which all Israelites were to give 10 percent of everything they earned and grew to the Tabernacle/Temple (Leviticus 27:30; Numbers 18:26; Deuteronomy 14:24; 2 Chronicles 31:5). In fact, the Old Testament Law required multiple tithes which would have pushed the total to around 23.3 percent, not the 10 percent which is generally considered the tithe amount today. Some understand the Old Testament tithe as a method of taxation to provide for the needs of the priests and Levites in the sacrificial system. The New Testament nowhere commands, or even recommends, that Christians submit to a legalistic tithe system. Paul states that believers should set aside a portion of their income in order to support the church (1 Corinthians 16:1-2).

            That's why I choose 26 annual payments.

            5 or 6 nice cabins in different states to use as base camps for hunting area leases. I'll need a fishing camp too.

                Oh I don't know... maybe because they borrowed the money in good faith and they feel that they owe the money they borrowed because they signed on a dotted line giving their word they would pay. Maybe they feel like their word is worth something more than money.

                      Wow... i have no idea what all that means.

                      To me tithing is one way to show my responsible stewardship of all the blessings my Lord has giving me. All good things come from God so all that I have is because the Lord entrusted it to me. The Bible tells me I should give 1/10 of all my income to my church. I do this because it is God's requirement of me. And because I do what the Lord requires of me he blesses me with even more. The better I am able to manage the blessings the Lord has giving me and thus be a blessing to others, the more the Lord gives me and the greater a blessing I can be to others.
                      Which is why I said if I won the lotto I would get down and pray for God to tell me who He wants me to give it to. He has already provided me and continues to provide me with all I need.

                      Besides if I won the lotto it would truely be a miricle from God... since I don't play the lotto.
