God will take care of his church, I would make the point that those who are in favor of tithing have a security blanket of knowing that 10% is coming, with freewill offerings you really have to trust God to provide.
Like I said the churches (using the term loosly here) that don't teach tithing aren't going broke.

Amen..I know of a couple of Apostolic churches who do not teach,preach or even mention the word Tithe and they are blessed.They fellowship with apostolic churches too..A Lot of it has to do with tradition..it is a cycle that repeats over and over and here comes someone who disagrees with them and they do not like it.It is sad we all cannot get along and realize God loves his people..
