Arguments Against Tithing Debunked – Part 4 – Is Every New Covenant Believer a Priest?

In the previous article, I refuted the notion that tithe was given exclusively to the Levites for all time. The conclusion of the argument was that the tithes were never given from men to the Levites, but from men to God, who allowed the Levites to receive it as an inheritance on the condition of their service to the Temple. Tithe has always been paid to God, not men, and God chooses who will receive it.

This brings me to the next anti-tither argument on my agenda:
Every believer in the New Covenant is a priest according to 1 Peter 2:9 and Revelation 1:6. Therefore, ministers and church employees are no more entitled to tithes than any other person in the church.
