1 Corinthians 9:13-14
Do ye not know that they which minister about holy things live of the things of the temple? and they which wait at the altar are partakers with the altar? 14 Even so hath the Lord ordained that they which preach the gospel should live of the gospel.




People gave money as tithes in the bible. Wage workers gave money . Those who are into animal husbandry gave money . especially if their Animal is unclean. Like pigs ,Carmel etc . They redeem it with money. The only things people brought to the house of God were things needed for the priest in the sanctuary. Every other thing in converted to money. It is called REDEMPTION.

Leviticus 27:31
And if a man will at all redeem ought of his tithes, he shall add thereto the fifth part thereof.


Leviticus 27:27
And if it be of an unclean beast, then he shall redeem it according to thine estimation, and shall add a fifth part of it thereto: or if it be not redeemed, then it shall be sold according to thy estimation
.

Deuteronomy 14:24-25
And if the way be too long for thee, so that thou art not able to carry it; or if the place be too far from thee, which the Lord thy God shall choose to set his name there, when the Lord thy God hath blessed thee: 25 Then shalt thou turn it into money, and bind up the money in thine hand, and shalt go unto the place which the Lord thy God shall choose:



Brother Jo, your statement on the highlighted part is very wrong. I thought we have discussed this before. Tithing was never done with money. Numbers 18:8. Money paid here was not for tithing but for heaves offering. Look back at my previous post.

Joagbaje:



It's base on same principles dear. Either for tithes or offerings. People gave cash that's my point . Confront the scripture I gave and stop looking for loop hole.

You guys claim that men didn't give money as tithes in the bible . And I'm trying to clear you on the principle of redemption. Men did use money as tithe. It is not pastors invention .If you're not yet clear on this let's discuss it more. Pls no insult

The only acceptable thing in the sanctuary were the things priests could use. Other things were not acceptable ,they were converted into money. For example Carmel is an unclean animal. If a man rears Carmel ,he can't bring a tithe of it. He will give money equivalent of it. Money is general medium of exchange . Also it's not every crop that can be brought to the temple . Others were sold and the money brought in. It is called redemption.

Leviticus 27:31
And if a man will at all redeem ought of his tithes, he shall add thereto the fifth part thereof.



You can redeem tithe , offering, or first fruit With money



26 “‘No one, however, may dedicate the firstborn of an animal, since the firstborn already belongs to the Lord; whether an ox[a] or a sheep, it is the Lord’s. 27 If it is one of the unclean animals, he may buy it back at its set value, adding a fifth of the value to it. If he does not redeem it, it is to be sold at its set value.

28 “‘But nothing that a man owns and devotes to the Lord—whether man or animal or family land—may be sold or redeemed; everything so devoted is most holy to the Lord.

Verse 27 clearly states what should be redeemed and the basis is that the said item is unclean. After Peter's trance God stated that nothing created by him should be called unclean so based on that, nothing can be redeemed presently as stated in verse 28

Brother Jo, pay more attention to details, your ability to arrange information brings about better understanding

Can you explain Verse 31

The condition for redeeming had been well spelt out in verse 27, your example of a blind animal here is entirely your idea. Unclean animals alone can be redeemed. Unless you still consider any item today as unclean which would be against the word of God directly. The doctrine of tithing as practiced today is man-made, besides Hebrew 7 brought tithing to an end.

Once again, only you can tell yourself the truth.

Can you explain Verse 31

was it the man's money that was tith at the first place?

Redeemed or no redeemed we are still talking about the animal in question and not the man's monetary income

your *redeemed* argument makes no sense at all since all we are running around here is still the animal.

This redeemed issue is a no contest and especially since tith is not for christians your should stop defrauding people. QED

For all of you paying tithes, this thread might be a good read for you. I am tired of argument. Go and disprove it, then, we can talk.
I really wish to pay tithes, but i am not convinced.

How would it be interesting for you when the truth being revealed has the potential to negatively affect your income. Every thing you have ever written about tithes on this forum as been thoroughly debunked biblically yet you are shameless enough to recylce the debunked lies you have stated in the past hoping some tithe victims will read and still remain in bondage.

TITHING: New Testament Practice Or Old Testament Bondage

Acts 16:16-19
Once when we were going to the place of prayer, we were met by a slave girl who had a spirit by which she predicted the future. She earned a great deal of money for her owners by fortune-telling.
This girl followed Paul and the rest of us, shouting, "These men are servants of the Most High God, who are telling you the way to be saved."
She kept this up for many days. Finally Paul became so troubled that he turned around and said to the spirit, "In the name of Jesus Christ I command you to come out of her!" At that moment the spirit left her.
When the owners of the slave girl realized that their hope of making money was gone, they seized Paul and Silas and dragged them into the marketplace to face the authorities.

The owners were not bothered about the demon, so in short the demon was their friend because it was bringing them lots of money. This is the true nature of many human beings. And it is the main reason why many people go after false doctrine, because all they want is to enrich their pockets. And when they believe that the pastor will lead to prosperity (and you know - money answereth all things) - they follow, follow.

May the Lord Almighty forgive us all.

God only accept prefect things. NO spottetd, wrinkle, blemish, blind either for tithes of offerings .

Leviticus 22:22
Blind, or broken, or maimed, or having a wen, or scurvy, or scabbed, ye shall not offer these unto the Lord, nor make an offering by fire of them upon the altar unto the Lord.


Deuteronomy 15:21
And if there be any blemish therein, as if it be lame, or blind, or have any ill blemish, thou shalt not sacrifice it unto the Lord thy God.



Unclean animals alone can be redeemed. Unless you still consider any item today as unclean which would be against the word of God directly.

People only gave what is needed in the temple as tithes And offerings. Anything outside that is given in cash .

The doctrine of tithing as practiced today is man-made, besides Hebrew 7 brought tithing to an end.

Heb 7 only stated the end of levitical order. We are back to the Melchizedek order . One major thing Melchizedek was known for was tithe.

brother Jo, these verses are talking about offerings not tithe, why are you going in circles?

You cannot force the one-off action of Abraham on everyone,

Same principles applies to tithes an offerings. So on what ground does a man redeem his tithes for money?

You just reminded me about a discussion I was having with a friend about a sensitive topic from the bible as well. I can't remember what we were talking on but I could remember his argument which went something like this: that is what my pastor said so I will do it. The moment I heard those words, I ended the discussion instantly as it would be useless arguing with fact from bible passages against someone who has made up his mind to do blindly what pastor says. It shows how many have been so brainwashed that they can't study the bible and reason on their own.
Re: Can Tithing Teachers Help Us Explain These Verses by Joagbaje(m): 7:58am On Oct 29, 2012
This is not about what a pastor say. But rather what the bible says . There was never a place where God put an end to tithing . Tithes and offering are for ever .
But The myth I set out the debunk here is the idea that men never gave money as tithe . And I have proven that wrong. Giving of money as tithe is not today affair. I only cited here one of the many reason men gave money in tithes or offerings.

Hebrew 7:12

For the priesthood being changed, of necessity there is also a change of the law.

The old covenant was faulty, the new covenant is perfect.

Christ is now the high priest and we all are priests. So tithe has no place in the new covenant.

Read Hebrew 7 and 8 well.

Tithing didnt originate in the law. Melchizedek order was higher in rank than levitical order . Christ is in continuation of Melchizedek order. Levitical order was for jews . Melchizedek was not for jews. Jesus is high priest in order of Melchizedek . This is simple enough. Tithing as a principle existed before the law. Likewise offering and some other spiritual principles . The law was only an interruption , the abolishing of the law does not negate principles which existed before the law. If that's the case , we should do away with offerings ,prayers, etc

Christ is now the high priest and we all are priests.

God has always seen his people as priests . It's not a new testament thing . The new testament is based on old testament principles.

Exodus 19:6
And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel
.

So tithe has no place in the new covenant.

Men came up with that theory out of their greed or ignorance. There's no reference to such in scripture. Jesus spoke against sabbath and other things , but tithes was never spoken against . But rather endorsed by Jesus

Jo , it is really becoming repulsive, stop defending a LIE !!

Remember you must give account before GOD one day, this life will not last forever.

There is no compulsion when serving GOD , everything from our bodies to our resources has to be offered willingly.

The Ex 19:6 you quoted used shall be priests, even Isa 61:6 used shall or will be.
