Nowhere in The Bible does it say to tithe 10 percent. The word tithe means a tenth, or a tenth part, NOT ten percent. There is a big difference. Example: In Leviticus 27:32 God said the tenth animal is the one to tithe - the LAST ONE out of every ten. If you only had 9 animals, you wouldn't tithe. If you had 19 animals, animal number ten would be the one to tithe.

The Biblical tithe was never money, and never came from anyone's income, and was to be eaten by the tither, his family, the Levites, the priests, the widows, the orphans, and the stranger. See Deut. 14:22-29.

Where in the New Testament does it talk about tithing at 10 percent?

Tithing at 10 percent or any other percent is not mentioned anywhere in the New Testament.Another Answer:Tithing or giving is still part of the Christian way, though there is no mention of a strict 10 percent. This could be because by the time of Christ, the 10 percent 'tithe' was well established and He continued to follow the 'Law of Moses' or because Christ was now the new and Eternal High Priest (see Hebrews 7) and the Law is now 'filled to the top' (see Matthew 23:23) with the spiritual aspects therein. Consider this Scripture:2 Corinthians 9:7New King James Version (NKJV)7 So let each one give as he purposes in his heart, not grudgingly or of necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver.
