Is Tithing Unscriptural Under the New Covenant?

"But woe to you Pharisees! For you pay tithe of mint and rue and every kind of garden herb, and yet disregard justice and the love of God; but these are the things you should have done without neglecting the others. (NAS Luke 11:42)

Speaking of TITHES there are many kinds of giver Christian now a days.
1. A person who does not have any knowledge about tithing.
2. A person who gives generously but count it as their tithes already.
3. A person has a knowledge about it but his heart don't want to obey it.
4. A person who wanted to pay his tithes to God but he thinks that his income is not enough so he withhold it.
5. A person who knows the principles of Tithing and act on it.


Each one has each own reason whether he will give his tithes or not. Others will say that it is only commanded in the old testament. Most of the churches are using the Malachi 3:10 as the argument to support its claim. NOW,do we really need to TITHE? what will happen to me if I will not give my tithes. Jesus has many teachings in the old testament but He didn't elaborate the principles of tithing...WHY?

when Jesus said "Yes you tithe but do not


Now how can you distinguish the person who pay his tithes to God and those who does not?
Not Tither:
1. Those who don't pay tithes has more worries that the tither.
2. They are afraid of their future.
3. They are afraid to ask provision from God.
4. They are always in need.
5. They don't have enough.
6. To those who know it, they are guilty because their spirit will witness that there's something they should do.
Tither:
1. Blessed life, have peace and joy in their hearts.
2. Their trust is on God that He will provide and meet all their needs.
3.They live under the protection of God.
4.They live in prosperity.
