The Word On Wednesday : Episode 24: The Tithe

Hi Everyone, This eye-opening episode challenges traditional teachings on tithing, exploring how Christ's sacrifice fulfilled and abolished Old Testament tithing laws. Discover a new perspective on generous giving rooted in God's love and grace rather than obligation or fear. Learn that "Good is not just information about the qualifications of God's doings; Good is the nature of God to us best expressed in Christ." Key Points: - Tithing was part of the Old Testament ceremonial law, requiring the payment of at least 23% of my total production, not 10%. - Christ fulfilled the law. Attempting to follow tithing laws will lead to falling from grace. - Biblically, there is no need for contractual giving, which is giving to protect you from condemnation and assure or maintain salvation. - New Testament believers are called to give generously from love, not obligation. Our giving should embody the fullness of the testimony of Christ, not a box-checking religious duty. - Biblically, there is no need for lottery giving, which is giving to earn or win blessings from God. We are already blessed with every spiritual blessing in Christ, so there is no need to tithe for blessings. - True Christian giving should reflect God's nature and Christ's finished work. We give as led, not as manipulated. - New Testament believers are called to give from the fullness of God’s nature as a response to His love, not as a payment for His love. Declarations: I am blessed with every spiritual blessing in Christ - I lack nothing. My giving flows from God's abundant love, not fear or obligation. I am free from the curse of the law, including tithing curses. Christ's sacrifice has fulfilled all ceremonial laws on my behalf. I give generously as the Holy Spirit leads, not by a set percentage. My righteousness comes from Christ, not my own works or giving. I am a conduit of God's goodness and generosity to others. My giving reflects the fullness of Christ's finished work. I give joyfully, knowing God loves a cheerful giver. Through Christ, I have direct access to all of God's blessings and provision.
