Would that not piss of Jesus? It came to me after watching the pope rap from WKUK.

    No he did not invent tithing. Sorry if it seems that’s what I suggested. There are a few things the church does in the Old Testament that Christians specifically do NOT do so imo it’s important to point out where in Jesus’s teachings these practices are reaffirmed.

      I got that impression from this part of your comment

      that’s where the collection plate likely originates from.

      The idea of donating in church or donating to a spiritual leader is waaaaaaaay older and recorded

        Yeah, I suppose I should have clarified the Christian collection plate, but I didn’t think that was necessary because OP asked what we think Jesus would think about tithing.
