Taxes are something the government does today and tithes were something for the nation of Isreal alone.
Tithes were from the 'first fruits' [ie, Winter wheat harvest not the barley harvest], and from the increase among the flocks, and harvests of the orchards and vineyards. All things where yield is attributed to God.
Tithe was never from leasing out your time in the form of a salary, nor from the products of your hands [items that you made for retail market].

1 Timothy 6:13-16 - I charge you in the presence of God, who gives life to all things, and of Christ Jesus, who testified the good confession before Pontius Pilate, 14 that you keep the commandment without stain or reproach until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ, 15 which He (God) will bring about at the proper time--He (God) who is the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of lords, 16 who alone possesses immortality and dwells in unapproachable light, whom no man has seen or can see. To Him be honor and eternal dominion! Amen.
No one sees the Father IN His fullness .... being a Spirit being. But rest assured God can reveal and/or manifest Himself as He pleases.... Most Christians merely acknowledge that in Jesus we did have God reveal and manifest a part humbled to walk among us. Not just as merely likeness of being good and righteousness as His heavenly Father.
As The only begotten Son.... denotes as we have a son as part of us in the flesh come to be? Jesus as A SON literally of God....was Of his heavenly Father too. Not merely a likeness .. What we see it is God teaching us
It is the liberality of this some Sects deny... and see Jesus was a angel the. Man and angel again..... like JWs especially. Jesus ALWAYS ASKED....." Who do you say I AM "? Jesus never mentioned he was a angel too?
