Every preacher that I hear that preaches about tithing does so as "supporting the ministry". Supporting the ministry is, in deed, a new testament command and tithing was the example that Paul used when writing to the Corinthians ( 1 Corinthians 9:13).
I know about the other forms of tithing (and the Levitical tithe of the tithe, and so on). But the tithe that has folks so wound up is that tithe to support the ministry.

What if one supports with 7% of their income? Are they dining God?
