S3 Ep. 27 - Money pt. 3 - Tithing

This episode is a continuation of the series on Money and the Bible. Today we dig into the topic of tithing and what the Bible really means by that. Basically it was a historical law that the new nation of Israel had after they escaped slavery. There were 12 tribes and 11 of them were given land and possessions by God. The 12th tribe (Levi) did not get anything. God established the Civil and Ceremonial (religious) law of 10% which all the tribes had to give of the first part of their harvest, animals, and money that they gained each year. Basically a 10% universal tax as a way of saying thanks to God, learning about the need for sacrifice, and providing for the priests of God (the tribe of Levi). Listen to this episode today to learn how that is supposed to apply to believers in Jesus Christ of the New Testament (Covenant).
