I stayed in the context, you went out of it to give it your own application. At the end, all doctrinal discussion comes down to hermeneutics principles, as usual. You have a preconceived bias. You come to the Bible with an idea already in your head.

I totally agree. I was mentioning as an example to them (the ones sent) of how to do it. They didn't go around asking for tithing as the model for support, but accept free will support, starting from hospitality, and also other support (food, clothing, etc...)
