100% Proof Tithing Is Not Biblical

He was infected while on a missions trip to India and life as he knew it was destroyed. I don't usually ask people for money but this is an opportunity for you to support a person in need instead of giving to mega church pastors.

Many mega churches and organizations such as Hillsong teach and insist that they are entitled to ten percent of their congregations income. Every person in their church is instructed to tithe from their income. But its not biblical. People are brought up in church from a very young age believing that they have to tithe. But should Christians tithe? Well, strictly speaking it is impossible for us to tithe today the way that God commanded Israel to tithe because tithes were given to the Levites and tithes could only ever be farm produce from the land of Israel. It always frustrates me when people like Dave Ramsey claim that God will bless you if you tithe to your local church. There were no local church buildings in the New Testament. People like Joel Osteen and Stevan Furtick did not exist. There were no mega church pastors with millions and millions of dollars and there were no mega churches. There were no church buildings at all. People like Micahel Todd, Robert Morris, Creflo Dollar and other false teachers make millions of dollars deceiving simple people into thinking that they need to tithe from their income. These false teachers need to get a good dose of the bible and they need to get saved.

Since being born again I have had a desire to give to my church, the poor and missions I don't think tithing is mandated but joyfully and sacrificially give more than 10%. I don't do this so I will be blessed, I do it because I have been blessed.

[peterrobinson]

You are 100% correct, tithing is not required under new covenant but grace giving.

I was asked to pray for the tithe. I went up there and said GOD doesnt want your money HE wants your hearts. I was never asked to pray for anything again. 😊. Its crazy how i was never convicted by The Spirit for not giving to the church but I have an overwhelming feeling to give to the hungry and poor. Aint that something. Follow The Holy Ghost and The Word

OMG. Sir you have hit the nail squarely on the head. I have listened to more than 100 teachers and pastors over the years hoping to hear this truth from them but 95% of the time I hear only half truths or outward lies. I discovered this truth after a simple study of the tithe about 30 yrs ago and since then, only about 3% of the teachings I come across mention this very important truth. The tithe under the Mosaic law was a tenth of the increase of the land. The cattle farmers had a slightly different way of measuring their tithe but is was done under the direction of the Lord Himself. In other words, only the owners of inherited land were required to tithe of what the land produced period. Very well done sir. I simply must subscribe to your channel for you are a very rare specimen. Truth means everything. Keep up the good work.

this is the most complete honest and brilliant explanation about this sensitive topic
YOU NAILED IT

G’day Caleb, thanks For this teaching, I think that we should give from our hearts that which we can afford and what the Lord puts upon our hearts. I like to give to my local church but also spread it around to charities that spread the word and also help the poor / prisoners / those generally in need. It should always be because we want to not because we think we must. Most importantly it should be between us and God an no one else need know how much and or to whom it goes. Blessings mate. Mark T.

I’ve now donated for your friend. God bless him and also your ministry.

I agree. What about dirt poor people who can't even pay their bills? Preachers would say that if they gave their money, it would come back 10 fold. That is a lie that keeps on deceiving. My financial situation never came back 10 fold when I was tithing to the church.
But I have noticed that when I feel an urge to help someone, that's when I noticed the difference in my finances. God never let's me go broke bc I did what He asked of me. I have never gone broke or suffered from helping someone, whether it's financially, physically, or mentally! Praise God! Thank you for this awesome video!

The Lord loves a cheerful giver..straight from the Heart.

Finally someone with Tithing Truth!!! So many throwing $$$ at the feet of men so God can be their bought and paid for genie. 🙄

I was fired as youth leader, Sunday school teacher, young adults leader and music team as drummer because i wasn't "tithing". I asked who brought the allegation? I was simply told from the "church board". I asked why were they not confronting me personally? Why would they not reveal themselves? Why hide in the secret? Apparently you cant be in leadership when you don't tithe. I asked the pastor to please show me the authority given to them by scripture to do this. He could or would not. Chased like a dog in a dark ally. That congregation soon after split up. What me and a couple of congregants were doing was tithing without our name on the envelope. I felt i had no need to defend my position and the pastor did the same for quite a while. I did not know that he had changed he's position. Being the outcast for many years, you learn a lot about the system that keeps the beast alive. News spread quickly in my province so nobody wanted a "none tither" or people asking biblical questions. So I'm still walking the road but not in the building supporting sense, doing matt28:19. Finding those rejected by the buildings that ask questions. I've found that sadly very few know what scripture actually says and most leadership hide behind the gatekeepers. We must seek out the lost and disciple them. To follow and obey the only shepherd.

I tithed regularly the entire time I was in the Pentecostal movement and never experienced the promised "blessing" that was supposed to be a result (though that wasn't my primary motivation, either). In fact, during that time my family basically lived a hand-to-mouth existence. When I eventually stopped tithing -- surprise! -- the threatened doom-and-gloom never materialized. Sadly, my mother-in-law still regularly listens to Robert Morris, one of the Pentecostal pastors who teach that not tithing places a curse on a person's finances 🙄. Thanks for spreading this message, Caleb.

This is probably #1 reason why nonbelievers won't go to church that I been told. They keep saying the church is after their money, and sadly, they are correct because of the popularity of this false doctrine. What is even more sad is that a lot of preachers will defend this false doctrine as a means for the funds to buy for the church expenses rather than to attend to the needs of the poor.

[craigcrawford]

I have questioned this for many years and certainly agree, tithing is not commanded of us today. .

[benjaminofperrin]

This is really good teaching and it's a blessing to hear. It's amazing how many things have been distorted by the church but I've found such joy by searching the scriptures for myself. I also came to the same conclusion that the poor and the widow and the needy are the ones we should be giving towards. Great message.

[thomastaylor]

"I am a person of means by no means" as the saying goes. I am poor financially, but I have been blessed with spiritual growth, and to me, that is of much more importance than financial gain in this world we live in. I just love studying the Bible and finding out what God wants us to do to please him in this life. Remember, we are here for only a very short time.

[joshbland]

Thank you for this teaching and exposing these business men “pastors” who have so many people fooled.

[keishaayers]

I’ve paid tithes since I was 16 n still pay them cheerfully bc the principles of tithing reaps many benefits in every area of my life. He bless me I bless him n he continues to increase my territory. His word is his word.

This is y we can’t follow man

[lindamcclelland]

I have studied the Bible for years an am a giver. I have been blessed beyond measure. With what measure you gives he gives Bach to you beyond measure.

*Commenting before watching*

For me, 2 Cor 9:7 erases all doubt.
"Each must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver."

What my wife do with our alloted giving is split it 50/50 between our church and charity of various types. For the church, we give because we LOVE our church. (Baptist btw)
