Does the Bible Describe More Than One Tithe?

Many people are surprised to learn that God, in His Word, reveals seven annual festivals (Leviticus 23). These special times of the year have been set aside by the Creator God as "holy convocations" (verses 2-4), sacred meetings or gatherings at which God's people are to assemble together. Like the weekly Sabbath, God set apart these festivals as sacred to Him.

God shows us in His Word that these holy festivals are times dedicated for group worship and abstention from normal work. They serve to enlighten God's people regarding His marvelous plan of salvation for all mankind. They are reminders of God's intervention for His people and foreshadow significant events in the fulfillment of His divine plan (Colossians 2:16).

God's people have observed these feasts from ancient times. Jesus observed them during His lifetime (Luke 2:40-43; John 7:37), and His apostles and the early Church of God continued to do so after His death and resurrection (Acts 2:1; 12:2-4; 18:21; 20:16; 27:9; 1 Corinthians 5:8), in obedience to God's commands.
