Tithe teaching is totally abused. Lev 27:32 differs from what you and others teach. God never required poor herders to tithe. If a person had less than 10 in the herd, then they were NOT required to tithe. God never directed animal sacrifice, tithing, and killing children for cursing God, and all the other 600+ plus laws to Christians. God's principles do remain but the principles are the reasons behind the laws and not the laws or methods themselves. I agree with Russell Earl Kelly.

God does not bless NT Christians using OT blessings for keeping ALL of the Law. Many Christians turn Lev 27:30-34 into four lies. (1) They define the tithe as money instead of only food (vs 30, 32). (2) They define the tithe as the firstfruits instead of the tenth (vs 32). (3) They define the tithe as the best instead of the tenth (vs 33). (4) They define the tithe as part of the New Covenant instead of the only covenant (vs 34). Plesse stop misusing God's Word.
