I think it is definately not a sin if u dont pay tithe, Malachi is only a passage in the old testament of the bible that most of our prosperity preaching pastors use to decieve people and enrich themselves.

No. Have you noticed how Mal 3: 8-10 is the only scripture most people used when talking about tithe. Ask them to tell you what comes before and after it and what tithe is for. Tithe was collect in the old testament for the descendents of Levi ( the did not work and were set aside for Gods work, they had no other source of income) and for the widows and needy. In todays church there is no levi and the title is not used for the widows and needy so it doesn't have any use in todays church. Only very few churches have pastors that don't work and only very few churches also help the people in need in their congregation. They'll rather have concerts and concerts, decorate the church and pay the bills and put the rest in the bank.

That part was also part of the laws of Moses. There are over 300 laws of Moses, so why is it only the one of tithe we still obey. We don't make sacrifices, we eat 'unclean' animals, women in the period should pray and stuffs like that none is still obeyed today , only tithe, why?. After Jesus came we didn't have to live by the law any more. The New testament says if u live by the law you will be judged by the law. so we might as well start sacrificing animals for every sin we commit and obey every 300 of those laws because all of the have their curses.

They always tell you of the blessings but if you ready further down, you will see the curses of not obeying the laws. its the opposite of the blessings... very bad I don't ve my bible so look for it n read. If the curse for not paying tithe works, no unbeliever will be rich, not 1... in that same way everyone who pays tithe should have life easy for them , because the windows of heaven has be opened and.... but you know thats not the case. some tithe payers suffer, n they still pay tithe and some non tithe payers ve things going very easy for them.

Also the new testament did not emphasis on tithe, the only time it as mentioned was when Jesus was sort of criticising the scribes and Pharisees, they is no place in the new testament where it says pay tithe. The new testaments says do not live by the law, here is Jesus, he has dies so that you don't have to but for some reason some people don't want to let go of that 1 law. when Jesus dies he didn't die 10% or when God gave Jesus he didn't give 10% of him. When the new testament takes about giving its talks about giving freely, giving what ever you have. In the new testaments when people gave the money put back in the congregation, it used used to help the people that needed and so on. But in todays church even with the tithe and offerings the poor in the church are left on their on.

So if you still ant to pay tithe its ur choice but read the bible itself first and don't listen to what everyone says.

realy is not a sin,but everyone should understand that u can use what u have to getting what u dont have,i believe when u bring something in the house of the lord,in return he wıll multıply it and give unto you,so paying tithe is very good for those that want more blessing from God

Will a man rob God? Malachi 4vs 1-end it is a good thing to pay tithe and its just to show that God provided for you and you gave him 10% of what he has done for you
So Pay your tithes and thinhs will not be tight for you .....Peace out
