108 God’s WorkWhat James means by his statement in James 2:10 is that a personwould only be keeping part of The Law by tithing today. Hewould not be able to keep The Whole Law. Therefore, by breakingjust one point of The Law (that is required by tithing) makesa person a sinner, a transgressor of The Law.When considering this important aspect, you would think that everyonewould want to know the full story. Consequently, for thosewho decide they want to tithe, you must ask this critical question,“What are the conditions in The Law that you must fulfill - sothat you can tithe?” The answer follows:Five Absolute Conditions – For Giving Tithes1 Only Levites are to be given tithes (Numbers 18:24).That is why Jesus said in Matthew 23 that ThePharisees sat in Moses seat or “administration” andThe Jews were to do all they said, even tithe. Christsaid, “tithes were to be paid only to The Levites.”That is what Moses “seat” or “administration”demands. Jesus knew only Levites could taketithes.2 To receive tithes, Levites cannot have any“inheritance” in the land (Numbers 18:24).3 The tithe is given to Levi as a reward for service in“the tabernacle” (Numbers 18:31).4 Tithes had to be brought to the location where God’sname was placed. The tithes had to be eaten there.God was only present in “the tabernacle,” and laterat “the temple” in Jerusalem (Deuteronomy 12:17-18).
