they came to the town hall to present their petitions for their tithes.
Ah! said the lords, you [Huss] said before that tithes were not purely
alms; but you assert now that they are, and so condemn yourselves.
Huss noticed this absurd course of the clergy. I wonder, says he,
with stinging sarcasm, . . .They condemned the article that tithes were
alms; now they beg that their salaries, which are alms, may not be
taken away. p.275

"Eles vieram prefeitura para apresentar suas peties pelos seus dzimos.
"Ah!", Disseram os senhores ", voc [Huss] disse antes que os dzimos no
eram puramente esmolas; mas voc afirma agora que eles so, e assim
condena a si mesmos. "Huss notou este rumo absurdo do clero. "Eu quero
saber", diz ele, com sarcasmo pungente,. . .Eles condenaram o artigo que os
dzimos eram esmolas; agora eles imploram para que os salrios deles, que
so esmolas, no sejam tirados". p.275

B. B. Warfield (1851 1921)

Professor of theology at Princeton Seminary, Considered to be the last of the great
Princeton theologians

Dr. Witherow most admirably says in words which it would do us

good to ponder: When told by sceptics that we are bound by the Bible
to pay tithes, to execute the idolater and blasphemer, to put the
Sabbath-breaker and witch to death, our answer is that the apostolic
decree sets entirely free from these and all other peculiarities of the
old Jewish economy. They are not names among the exceptions, and
therefore are of no biding force upon the Gentile believers (p.193)'

"Dr. Witherow admiravelmente diz, em palavras que nos faria bem refletir:
"Quando dito por cticos que somos obrigados pela Bblia a pagar DZIMOS, a
executar o idlatra e blasfemador, a condenar morte aqueles que quebram o
sbado e as bruxas, a nossa resposta que o decreto apostlico liberta
inteiramente destas e de todas as outras peculiaridades da velha Economia
judaica. Elas no so nomes entre as excees, e, portanto, no tem nenhuma
fora vinculante sobre os Crentes gentios (p.193) "

A ironia que a Direito Religioso tantas vezes ensinam o dzimo, mas se opem bemestar social, enquanto o dzimo, juntamente com que recolhem a leis, do ano sabtico
e jubileu eram todos parte do sistema de bem-estar social de Deus para a nao de
Israel, para cuidar dos pobres e imigrantes .
This article was origninally published on our old site. I have decided to rewrite and improve
it. This is a list of questions that you should ask tithing supporters.
1. If God is the same yesterday, today, and forever, why has the tithing law
changed so drastically from Israels time to where we are now?
2. Why dont we honor the tithing feast in Deuteronomy 14?
3. Even though Israel had gold and silver, and could barter, why were they
required to only give food, but we are permitted to give money?
4. Were the tithes used to build the temple or help with maintenance?
5. In Genesis 14, why did Abraham give 10% of his war spoils and not of his own
wealth?
6. Why was Israel required to give less than 1% of the increase in spoils of war?
(Numbers 31).
7. The tithe was used to support civil and governmental duties performed by
Levites, so why are we required to tithe before taxes are taken out?
8. Is tithing a schoolmaster that has already BROUGHT us to Christ, or is it still
bringing us?
9. In Malachi 3, because specific portions of offerings were required as well, Israel
robbed God not only of tithes but also offerings. So why are offerings freewill for
us?
10. Lets compare these two statements:
Where should our giving begin? vs.
Where should we end our giving?
Now, which answer should we be teaching?

Lewis Sperry Chafer

Theologian, Founded Dallas Theological Seminary, Influential proponent of Christian

Dispensationalism

In matters pertaining to the giving of money, the grace principle

involves the believers recognition of Gods sovereign authority over
all that the Christian is and has, and is in contrast to the Old
Testament legal system of tithing which system was in force as a part
of the law until the law was done away (Joh_1:16-17; Rom_6:14;
Rom_7:1-6; 2Co_3:1-18; Eph_2:15; Col_2:14; Gal_3:19-25;
Gal_5:18). Though certain principles of the law were carried forward
and restated under grace, tithing, like sabbath observance, is never
imposed on the believer in this dispensation. Since the Lords day
superseded the legal sabbath and is adapted to the principles of grace
as the sabbath could not be, so tithing has been superseded by a new

system of giving which is adapted to the teachings of grace as tithing

could not be.

"Em questes relacionadas com a doao de dinheiro, o princpio da graa envolve o

reconhecimento do crente da autoridade soberana de Deus sobre tudo o que o cristo

cujo sistema estava em vigor como parte da lei at que a lei foi abolida (Joo_1: 1617; Romanos_6: 14; Romanos_7: 1-6; 2Corntios_3: 1-18; Efsios_2: 15;

lei foram transitados e consolidados sob a graa, o DZIMO, como a observncia do
sbado, nunca imposto sobre o crente nesta dispensao. Uma vez que o dia do
Senhor substituiu o sbado da lei e adaptado para os princpios da graa como o
sbado no poderia ser (adaptado), assim, o DZIMO foi substitudo por um novo
sistema de doao que adaptado aos ensinamentos da Graa como o DZIMO no

Secondly, as to the Labourer worthy of his Reward, I answer, we find

no other patterne in the Testament of Christ Jesus, but that both the
Converting (or Apostolicall Ministry) and the Feed (or Pastorall
Ministry) did freely serve or minister, and yet were freely supported
by the Saints and Churches, and that not in stinted Wages, Tithes,
Stipends, Sallaries, &c. but with larger or lesser supplies, as the Hand

You know whats wrong with the 10%? Number one, it isnt biblical
and its giving for the wrong reason. Its giving to fulfill an obligation
rather than a response to a loving, willing heart, right?
Second thing thats wrong with it is, it hinders what you could do by
making you think youre done. Giving is never to be by coercion. It is
never to be by fundraising. It is never to be by compulsion. It is any
gimmick is offensive to God.

13 Reasons Why You Should Tithe

Weve given you lots of reasons on this website on why you should not tithe, so here are a
bunch of reasons why you should tithe.
1. You Want to be Cursed
If you want to be cursed, then a good way to go about it is to keep trying to be
justified by the law. (Galatians 3:10)
2. You Think Giving Should be Motivated by Obligation
If you are a military officer maybe you think Gods people need enforcement
otherwise we wont give out of love. (2 Corinthians 9:7)
3. You Despise Liberty
I can see how a slave can envy the freedom of others, how about You?
(Galatians 2:3-5)
4. You Abuse Grace Too Easily
If you are worried that you might abuse the grace of God with no laws in place,
then keep on tithing (Galatians 2:21)
5. You Think You are an Israelite
Israel gave the tithe to the Levites since the Levites had no land
inheritance (Numbers 18:20-32)
6. You Dont Believe Christ Fulfilled the Law
Either you were tricked into believing that Fulfill really means Continue, or
you just dont believe that Christ completed the law (Matthew 5:17)
7. You Are Comfortable With Only Offering 10%
Have more to give than 10%? Then this works out for you
8. You are Too Scared to Give any Other Way
Maybe youve been practicing tithing for so long, that you are scared about the
results of what happens when you give any other way
9. Ignorance is Bliss!
Studying the Bible for the truth might open a can of worms and youll be just as
happy not knowing the truth (1 Peter 3:15, Romans 16:18)
10. You are Really Dumb?
10% is easy math for you.

11. You Believe That Keeping 90% is Not Robbing God

Some of you have poor stewardship with the other 90%, but you think you
arent robbing God since you gave your 10th to him. (Mark 10:21)
12. You Dont Want Gods Love
God Loves a cheerful giver. It doesnt say anything about a dedicated one, so
maybe this works out for you if you want to lay low on Gods radar (2
Corinthians 9:7)
13. You Need a Tax Deduction
Gotta stay under the next tax bracket? Then Give unto Caesar what is Caesars
and to God what is Gods (Matthew 22:21)

Frank Viola (Author)

Tithing does appear in the Bible. So, yes, tithing is biblical. But it is
not Christian. The tithe belongs to ancient Israel. It was essentially
their income tax. Never do you find first-century Christians tithing in
the New Testament.

We do not obligate New Testament Christians to pay the tithe, since,

as we rightly contend, this would go counter to Scripture. In the Old
Testament indeed it was Gods will and order that the tithe should be
given by every Israelite; but this divine command is not binding upon
New Testament believers.

dzimo fosse dado por todos os Israelitas; mas esta ordem divina no est ligada aos

Charles Spurgeon (1834 1892)

Preached to around 10,000,000 people, Remains one of the most influential preachers to
this day considered by some as the best

But you are not under a system similar to that by which the Jews
were obliged to pay tithes to the priests. If there were any such rule
laid down in the Gospel, it would destroy the beauty of spontaneous
giving and take away all the bloom from the fruit of your liberality!
There is no law to tell me what I should give my father on his
birthday. There is no rule laid down in any law book to decide what

present a husband should give to his wife, nor what token of affection
we should bestow upon others whom we love. No, the gift must be a
free one, or it has lost all its sweetness.
