Why is it mentioned in the Bible that Abraham gave tithe once but in the church today, tithe has become a continuous thing? Isaac, Jacob, Daniel, Job and etc never mentioned they gave tithe once but God still bless them. In most of our churches today, they keep emphasizing that, that it seems is the only way God can bless His Children.
The modern tithe is unscriptural. Mostly because of greed. Pastorship was never meant to be a continual job, but something you did in addition to your regular work. People have tried to turn the job of Pastor into a source of revenue, which the Bible preaches against, calling it 'filthy lucre.' Paul says to give cheerfully, not out of necessity, meaning not FORCED, but willingly, by the Spirit.
Amen Damon! I'm glad other brethren can see this too! Paul left the example to the elders of preaching AND working. Very good brother, you have a good understanding.
