Dear Eric,
     Thank you for the informative article. I do not believe that tithing
is a legalistic requirement for the NT believer; it is OT legislation for
the old covenant economy. Paul puts giving on a voluntary basis.
Nonetheless, Paul speaks much about giving. Spirit-indwelt believers must
realize that it costs money to get the Gospel out to the world and to show
a Christlike love to those in need. Many of such costs go beyond
maintenance of church facilities and ministers' salaries. The OT
requirements certainly have an exemplary value for Christians.

                                        Yours,
                                        Harold Holmyard
