Tithing or not tithing in a mixed multitude assembly is a no-win situation. However, the damage can be mitigated by segregating believers from unbelievers and tithers from non-tithers.
Jesus said: “what God has joined together, let not man separate.” A marriage not joined by God is the foundation of domestic violence; it is the hidden cause of falling away from faith, and pre-mature death.
Marriage has a purpose. In the definitions of marriage in the Bible, the purpose of marriage for Gentiles, Jews and Christians are not the same.
If you are only concerned with how money is raised and utilized in the local assemblies in the guise of Levitical tithing you miss the most dangerous trap in the tithing doctrine. The trap has to do with the readiness of the militant church for rapture.
The only means for saints to be transformed to see God in a perfect state is through the supernatural airlift of dead and living saints to the heavens.
For a Gentile convert to Christianity, the only means of entering heaven in a glorified state is one of two raptures that will take place seven years apart during the Jewish heptad, which is the last seven years of the dispensation of grace.
God is the only Person who can join a man and a woman in matrimony. Not all marriages are joined by God. For a marriage to be joined by God seven conditions must be fulfilled.
To tithe or not to tithe in a mixed multitude assembly is a Hobson’s choice in that it is a decision which forces one to choose between two things that are inimical to one’s expected end.
A Christian marriage is a covenant and not a contract. It is a covenant between a man, a woman and God. It is cut in blood and determined with the shedding of blood. There is no bloodless covenant. Every Christian marriage must follow due process as defined in the Bible.
There are two types of trouble in Christian marital relationship: abnormal problems and normal trouble in the flesh. Abnormal problems in ungodly marriages are veritable grounds for the perpetuation of household wickedness. There is a way out.
