Where Do We Tithe If We Don't Go To Church?

@@MrCJesslinger God blesses people that he can bless people through. Your tithe is obedience, your offering is above and beyond. All make God happy so I don’t know what you mean. It sounds like your greedy saying na God helped them so I can keep my money. Your attitude is setting false opinions about Christianity because you want to keep “your share.”

[@MrCJesslinger]

@@fanofbama14 Please re-read what I wrote. An evidence of a false convert is that they DON'T give. But it is legalism to guilt congregants or fellow believers to a specific percentage. Even so, the number 10% is not the full tithe that Israelites paid. A preacher with sound doctrine will have read the other portions of the OT concerning the tithe, which reveals the total is approximately 1/3 of yearly income. Giving money in the NT is a heart issue, not a formula. Just as all the Mosiac Law was intended to. Jesus makes that concept clear when He tells us that not just anger, lust, etc outwardly is sin, but also the thoughts of anger, lust, etc is sin. Your point is the classic guilt-trip that prosperity gospel false teachers use. Trying to "tithe" in order to force God to provide for your needs is even more greedy than the motivation you have falsely attributed to me. God already promises to provide for the basic needs of the believer. And giving to get more is a gross attempt to usurp the sovereignty of God, who brings both calamity and blessing, trial and joy, as He wills, for His purposes. Amos 3:6 Again, for the 3rd time, if a Christian isn't giving, that is strong evidence they are a false convert. Thanks, and prayers for any tricked into the Golden Calf of prosperity gospel. All should repent and submit to Christ's will no matter the outcome - trusting in His penal substitutionary atonement to save them from what we each deserve, eternal punishment in hellfire, because He is Holy. That is true conversion.

Your first comment makes no sense and your second comment is fighting an argument that we are on the same side of lol. You don’t tithe to force God to provide for you. That’s ridiculous because tithing is not the law of Christianity. My point is not the classic guilt trip. No one is required to give a set amount.

Hi :) I also thought that tithing is not really required from us since we are in the new covenant. But then I came accross biblical teachings that changed my mind. The reason tithing is required and other laws are not, is that tithing was there before the 10 commandements. It’s a spiritual law that God put in place, same as sowing and reaping, etc. Also tithing is not the same as offerings. Tithing is 10% of your income that goes to your local church and allows to spread the Word. Offerings are random to orphanages, people in need or whoever you want to give to. Also when I personally started to tith my income started to grow by a lot (I’m self employed). Whenever you give something to God he will always give it back to you. God doesn’t need your money but he needs your heart and obeying his word means you are putting the Kingdom first. 🙂

Good rule is: do what you can, where you are at with what you have.

Yup, the next time you go to MacDonalds supersize it and also buy a super size meal to the person behind you😀.

Why are people still Tithing?

[@mariej.d.2193]

Because it is a spiritual law. It honors God and you get blessed

St Jude Hospital! Runs solely on donated money. While for profit hospitals swim in red ink!

[@user-vj4dp4xr8k]

Tithe goes to church or ministry who is teaching the Word of God and churches often also do charity like feeding the poor. Offerings are different than tithe. You can give offerings as much you want or how God speaks to you. So it's tithe + offerings.

[@Beencouraged777]

Tithe? New Testament Believers model and pattern themselves not according to the ancient law of Moses. We are not bound to it in order to obtain approval, love, acceptance by God and definitely not to obtain Salvation, which is a free gift. We follow Christ and “where the Spirit of the Lord is there is liberty.” We give from the heart and not by the persuasion or compulsions of men.

buy 10% of your income worth of skateboards and go to the skate park and hand them out to little kids because the best rides have no steering wheel and no engine

[@vickieclark5931]

It's like people that give sports gear out to kids in need. It's something that can really benefit a lot of kids.

Joel Osteen, Kenneth Copeland, Benny Hinn, Creflo Dollar ( and the list goes on) and others need your tithings

Nope. Best not to donate God's money to false teachers, specifically the prosperity preachers who teach giving is so you can receive.

[@mannyflores4128]

Stop it..

[@davidcarson8950]

They’re truthful preachers of the word. They can preach what they choose in order to gain $. So give to them.

[@mariej.d.2193]

Do you even know how much these people give away in charity etc? Some of them live on 20% of their income and give away 80% or more. I’m not necessarily a fan of Joel Osteen, but just to say he doesn’t take a salary from his church. He made his millions with his books.

You don't. That is no longer needed under the New Testament.
