Would you attend a church that did not require tithes?
Would attend an "apostolic" church that did not require or teach tithing?
What if the Pastor was a wealthy business man and financed it all?

I'd attend perhaps depending on what kind of church it was and what the pastor believed and taught ......... but I'd still give a tenth.

Jesus name, one God Acts 2:38 etc.... men wear shorts, women wear pants.
Wealthy Pastor that just doesn't need any tithes or offerings. Too him it's not necessary.

To be Apostolic it must continue in the Apostle's doctrine and the teachings of Jesus. Since tithing was taught by Jesus and the Apostles a church that does not teach tithing is NOT an Apostolic church.

We have been through this. Jesus did not teach tithes, nor did the Apostles.
There is no recording of the early church doing so.
Tithing is Not apostolic.
Tithing is an old testament Law. And tithing was mostly Food.

Yes we have been through this and BOTH Jesus and the Apostles taught and practiced tithing.
It was an agricultural society mostlty pay the light company a bushel of corn or buy your gas with a sack of tomatoes.
