The Truth Of The Tithe (Part 2: In The New Testament)14 min read

     Let us remember what this series of two articles is not about. This series is not about giving license to Christians to not give at all. It is also not about convincing Christians to give less or to be cheap with God. And lastly, this series is not about excusing the hard heart reluctant to give abundantly and sacrificially. In this part of our two-part series on tithing, we will revisit crucial definitions and then deconstruct and refute the most common New Testament passages used by tithing proponents to "encourage" people to give. We will then remind you of what a biblical model for giving should look like for New Covenant Christians today, and conclude with a few more thoughts on the issue.
