Tithing is not about money! Tithing has never been about money. Tithing has always been about forgiveness!The primary purpose of the tithe was to pay for sin.

Their forgiveness, and the blessing attached to forgiveness, depended on the quality of the tithe they gave. It had to be the best or it would be rejected by God. If they didnt give their best, instead of blessing, their land, homes, crops and families would receive Gods curse.That truth, in itself, answered many questions we had about the validity of tithing today, particularly among those who say they believe Christ was the last sacrifice for sin, and believe their sins were forgiven by His perfect sacrifice.
