Following a thorough examination of every biblical text on tithing; Dr. Kelly concludes that the church would be best served spiritually by believing and applying better New Testament principles of giving. After discussing sound biblical reasons for Christians to replace tithing; he presents God's better principles of grace. Doctrines such as the New Testament concept of law and covenant and the priesthood of believers are presented as they affect tithing. Following several chapters which discuss disputed texts relating to pastoral support; this book traces the early development of church support as found in the Church Fathers before Nicea.This book leaves no question or objection about tithing unanswered. It is a "must read" for any serious Bible student. There is a wealth of other doctrinal insights to be gained as one goes through the Bible in search of the truth about tithing.

Great Book...a must for those interested in history of Soviet politics.By JRoudebushVery compelling and fast moving; turbulent; chaotic; violent at times but nevertheless Soviet life as it was...a really great read!!!Thanks!!2 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Bulgarian TomatoesBy Jack K.A biography on Khrushchev...and Bulgarian Tomatoes; how do they relate? This biography contains numerous details which one probably does not really care to know; but is loaded with information on the guy himself and how he rose to power. I would reccommend this for IB history classes; which helps to understand the cold war. The end section; which contains documents is rather interesting and simple to follow. There is one document on Khrushchev's views on Bulgarian tomatoes; which is rather interesting. However; the British spellings can be annoying for American readers; but should not hinder anyone's desire to purchase this. It is deffinently great material to be used in a seminar.
