In this first of four well-documented books in The Tithing Series, David G. Mackin overturns traditional teaching on tithing before the Law in the lives of Abraham and Jacob. Although he believes that God blesses Christian generosity, he demonstrates from Scripture that tithing did not make Abraham or Jacob rich and was never a part of the Abrahamic covenant. Readers will discover answers to questions like: (1) What motivated the patriarchs to tithe? (2) Did the "gospel preached to Abraham" include tithing? (3) Did the Spirit lead Abraham to tithe? (4) What did patriarchal tithing mean in its original context? (5) Can tithing before the Law be linked to the New Covenant? and (6) Should Christians follow the patriarchs' example of tithing? | Tithing in the Lives of Abraham & Jacob by David G Mackin, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
