Tithing – Mosaic Law or Grace Principle? | 2 Corinthians 9:7 KJV
“Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.”
— 2 Corinthians 9:7 KJVTithing — giving exactly 10% — was part of the Mosaic system. Israel actually paid multiple tithes annually totaling far more than 10%. This was a covenant obligation, not a freewill offering. Malachi 3:10 was written to Israel under the Law covenant — not to the Church.
For the Church in the grace age, the principle is radically generous: not 10% but everything belongs to God. Paul teaches cheerful, purposeful, Spirit-led giving — not legal obligation. Second Corinthians 8-9 describes giving that flows from grace received.
Give generously. Give cheerfully. Give as God has prospered you — not out of obligation to a law, but out of love for the God who gave His own Son for you. Grace always exceeds law in generosity.
