I could car less what you call it...The problem is, "You keep using that word, but I do not think it means what you think it means."
God explicitly defined "tithe" in great detail in the Mosaic Covenant After He defined it in the Mosaic Covenant, He never redefined it, nor did anyone in the NT use it in any other way to mean anything else.
That word cannot be used legitimately for any other practice. In fact, Jews don't even use the word "tithe" because they can't do it the way God commanded, therefore they don't claim to do it at all. They do other things, such as a "fairness offering," but they don't call it "tithing."
I support the church, missionaries, and other people and organizations who are doing God's work in spreading the gospel....
I do this with a portion of my income, that is equal to or more than 10%...
You will have no argument from me... I just feel that this is the least I can do for all the wondrous blessings the Lord has given me...to support His hands and feet on this earth.
My salvation was by faith and grace.... my gifts are outside of that whole issue.
