TS, if you feel comfortable with God, while not paying tithes, I wouldn't tell you to do anything differently. That's between you and He...er...Him...
We believe that God expects us to give a 10th, and offerings, and so that's what we do. Live according to your convictions.

I have no problem with someone giving 10% or 20% but the problem comes when taught as a comamnd or requirement by God.
When we say "God expects us " do give a certain amount then we must give scripture to support it. Scriptures given up to this point in support of tiythes as been butchered.
I also notice many questions go without being addressed.

Asked and answered.
I believe that all scriptural principles regarding tithes, and any other subject should be taught today.

I would not attend a church that did not preach and accept tithing. I would not want to be under that curse. I prefer the blessings of God rather than the curse.
