Had a conversation with my pastor today. He believes tithing (the 10% principal in Malachi 3:10) is exclusively to the church where I am inclined to believe that is it giving to anything that is of God’s work and for His glory. What do you think?

What do you think?

Tithing is exclusively 10% to your church and outside the church is additional offering
Anything that is in His name works
It can be a mix and is 100% up to the giver
Fuck You!

The old testament comes from oral tradition that was documented starting around 600-500 B.C. The Dead Sea Scrolls which generally represent the first written biblical reference works were produced around the 2nd century B.C.

But the new Testament was almost entirely produced between the 10-15th century A.D with the majority coming from about 6 authors in the mid 15th century....

50ad to around 1000ad mostly.

First of all, that source is not credible and gives very little dating information. Second, your position is factually inaccurate, portions of the Old Testament texts are found in old hebrew "bibles" and the Dead Sea Scrolls that date well into the 5-2nd B.C. That's a fact. I am genuinely shocked you sincerely posted that fake news revisionist history crap link in a place like this.

New Testament is 10th century A.D. at best....

I suggest you research this topic further. You have a literal fuck ton of blind spots in your knowledge base.

Ok so provide a source for your info.

Here’s my second one I’ve now provided. Even Lefty Wikipedia says earliest is 4th century AD
