There are those who would like to throw the Old Testament in the trash and continue on with the New Testament for life guidance. Paul the Apostle asserts: "All scripture is given by the inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness" (II Timothy 3:16).
Once, I heard Robert Tilton on the tv say, "We don't need no doctrine around here!" Knowing above passage from memory in Bible College, I just clicked the channel and never turned back ever again to give him the time of day.
No, all scripture has value, the Bible tells us. We do not live under the tithe mandate in the New Covenant, but we can glean from Malachi 3:8 and see that God is interested in us consistently giving to His work: "Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee? In tithes and offerings."
God is looking for an economic exchange with his people, and we rob him of that interaction when we do not give to His work. It's as if God is sitting there with a big pile of everything we could ever need or want and is waiting for an interaction. He wants to see some faith; it's just his way. God wants to play marbles with us, but we just sit there and say, "We'll use your marbles, God." God wants to go to the beach with us but we say, "We'll use your towels and gas and air and sunlight and sun blocker, etc." God begins to feel abused in such circumstances and uses the word "robbed" to describe our arrogance that he has to do everything, when He is looking for a relationship. Treat God with a little respect and pay some of the way; you'll be surprised where it gets you.

In the book of Ephesians, we find God sharing with the Church down through the ages the practical application of the Christian walk in this world. In Ephesians 4:30 we read, "And grieve not the holy Spirit of God . . . ."
The greatest argument for Christians to oppose those sins in the culture that presumably defile no one other than those involved in "mutual consenters sins" like adultery or homosexuality, is that they grieve the holy Spirit of God.
A free society can only remain free if it is constrained by the ungrieved Holy Spirit. Even President George Washington asserted that our form of Democratic Republic was made only for a religious people. He meant that we must have an internal constraint to our freedom or else we would destroy ourselves with the very freedom we seek.
Holy means "set apart." It means that we Christians are people who are different than those who live like animals for their own passions. We live in constraint of our passions in order to ensure that we do not sadden the Holy Spirit and thus destroy our own selves and our culture in the end.
If there is one dominate issue that destroys nations and homes, it's the matter of grieving the Holy Spirit. Every government that has ever fallen has done so because the Holy Spirit that dwells in man was in the end so saddened that the people held no faith in the authority of the rule of that Government. Every Caesar must remember not to grieve the Holy Spirit or face national destruction.
When the Spirit of God says, "left," then go left. If he says, "right," then go right. That's what it means to be led by the Spirit. And refusing the leadership of the Holy Spirit leads only to his grief and your and our destruction. Grieve not the holy Spirit of God.
