In The Bible, Old and New Testaments the word tithe
occurs 14 times in 13 verses in the KJV.
The word means 'tenth' and refers to the giving of the tenth of harvest, flocks, goods, etc as an offering to God for the good of God's work and house. Some have argued that the tithe is not for the New Testament times but this is an error. The tithe was actually before the Law was given, when Abraham gave a tenth to the high priest, Melchisedek. If anything, when a life is given to the Savior, in the 'great exchange', all of what we have and own belongs to him. Jesus even refers to the tithe, and teaches that not one jot nor tittle of the Law would disappear: the Law stays forever the mirror of God's righteousness, fulfilled in Him, God's righteousness. Actually,we should do more, but more particularly, what He requests in obedience.

Where in the bible does it say about tithing 10 percent?
Nowhere in the Bible does it say to tithe 10 percent. The word tithe means a tenth, or a tenth part, NOT ten percent. There is a big difference. Example: In Leviticus 27:32 God said the tenth animal is the one to tithe - the LAST ONE out of every ten. If you only had 9 animals, you wouldn't tithe. If you had 19 animals, animal number ten would be the one to tithe. The Biblical tithe was never money, and never came from anyone's income, and was to be eaten by the tither, his family, the Levites, the priests, the widows, the orphans, and the stranger. See Deut. 14:22-29.
Where in the New Testament is it written that Christians are obligated to tithe?

How much is an offering if 10 percent is tithe?
An offering is something over and above the tithe, for those who consider the tithe obligatory, although there are different opinions among Christians as to the obligatory nature of the tithe since it is not mentioned as such in the New Testament. For some who do not believe the tithe obligatory, an offering would be another name for the tithe. In any case, an offering is an indefinite amount whereas the tithe is 10%. So there can be no answer to what the offering may be. Remember Jesus praised the poor widow who gave all she had, even though it was a ''mite'' the smallest possible coin of those days, while He was not complimentary to others who put in large amounts when their heart was not right in terms of motive. So, firstly, one's heart should be right about how to give and then any amount can be given at any time. Most importantly, as outlined in the New Testament God wants our whole heart first as a ''living sacrifice'' or offering to Him.
