Tithing: Nailed To The Cross
Tithing Nailed To The Cross is a book that cuts through all the opinions, traditions, superstitions, imagined benefits, and false doctrines, to clearly and doctrinally explain the absence of tithing in the New Testament.
Bruce plainly teaches why tithing is not required after the Resurrection (the beginning of the New Testament); how tithing can interfere with sonship, faith, and even salvation; and how tithing can expose you to the curse of the Law causing health, financial, marital, and many other problems.
Wouldn't it be wonderful to actually have your prayers easily answered because of Jesus' finished work and the Name He gave us to use? Wouldn't you like to know that God is going to say ''yes'' to His promises without you having to wonder if all your church ducks are in a row? And wouldn't it be nice to have a royal ring put on your finger, a kingly robe placed on your back, and a big hug of approval without having to sleep in the bunk house as a ''servant'' until it's decided that you can be trusted?
We may call it an ''act of faith,'' ''obedience,'' ''doing the Word,'' ''good stewardship,'' or what ever we want; but at the end of the day, it is nothing more than an obsolete, Old Testament ordinance that will only ''frustrate the grace of God,'' as Paul taught in Galatians. As circumcision became ''nothing'' under the New Covenant, likewise, tithing is no longer obligatory.
So, will you choose to develop a shaky faith based on the works of an Old Testament law that never should have been carried over to the New Testament? Or, will you choose to develop a resolute faith that is based on Jesus' immutable work at the cross which included the removal of Malachi's ordinances (tithing)? Will you go with the crowd, or the truth?

I am half way through this book and already excited about how good the author differenciates between the Old Testament law and New Testament grace. Tithing is clearly a part of the old covenant and was not meant for the New Testament church. The author makes clear the difference between tithing and giving voluntarily what you have determined in your heart. I think what I get so far is the freedom we have in Christ, the freedom He purchased through His death on the cross and resurrection. He has provided us freedom from the law and we are no longer under any obligation to the Old Covenant, but free to live for Him through the guidance of the Spirit.

this book was the first book I read, when I researched tithing. this book began my 2 year research journey on the subject to set me free. I wept through much of the book.
