Look, folks who defend the mandatory payment of tithing have to do so through a perversion of the scriptures, plain and simple. Abraham's tithe was voluntary, as was Jacob's. The tithe under the law applied only to agricultural goods, and not everyone tithed. There is no record of the tithe being commanded to believers in any way or form under the New Covenant, since we are now the Temple of God, priests unto our Lord, and in Christ no longer under the Levitical priesthood, but under the order of Melchizedek.

Now, if someone has had it laid on their heart to give a tenth, then so be it. As they give, I will worship with them. But, when people begin lying about people being robbers because they do not pay this tenth, that is when the problem comes in, big time!
