A quick word about e-Sword Bible software

I've been using e-sword bible software for about 7-8 years now and my experience has been fantastic.  The application is very intuitive and easy to use and jam packed with functionality.  It is a great resource for serious or casual bible students everywhere and best of all it's free.  That's right, it doesn't cost a dime, it's free to use forever.  This ministry lives by Matthew 10:8 "Freely you received, now freely give."  The software download comes the KJV with Strong's concordance and you can add other bible versions, commentaries, dictionaries, tools, etc.  There are a few add on components that charge a one time fee such as Vine's Expository Dictionary or The Amplified Bible, but these are not required to run the program.  Click here for e-Sword now.    I encourage you to support this ministry with your prayers and free will giving.
I do NOT receive any compensation now or in the future from e-Sword or affiliates for promoting e-Sword bible software, it's just a great resource that I've enjoyed and I hope others do as well.

Questions about tithing

Well for starters, the question "Is tithing biblical" is very misleading and really gets us going on a false premise.  Lots of things are "biblical", meaning they ARE in the bible.  The bible talks about animal sacrifices, circumcision, and a host of other subjects.  Some accounts are good and some are bad.  Some people would have you believe that if something is in the bible, it is automatically validated and then it applies to everyone.  Nothing could be further from the truth.  In some cases, the bible is simply giving a historical account for our knowledge and growth.  At other times, God is giving specific instruction to that group of people.  We must study and think.  Who is speaking and who are they speaking to?  Where are they and what is going on?  We have to look at everything in context and this requires the church to think.  We must be thinkers.  It's not enough to rely on the clergy to serve you up your weekly bible snack.  Feed yourself!

So, the REAL question is not "Is tithing biblical?", but rather, Is tithing new covenant?  or Is it Christian?

Those are two distinctly different positions. Yes, tithing was definitely part of the Law (as was circumcision, sabbath keeping, ceremonial washings, etc.)  as applied to the Jews, but it was never a part of the early Christian church.  Romans 8:4 is one of the many places that tells us that Christ fulfilled the full requirement of the law for us.

If you want to learn the truth about this, then look for more posts, audios, videos, BUT most important study and pray.  Show your self approved.   I encourage you and challenge you to pursue the truth.
