Anyway, as I stated in my previous post, I do not PAY tithes, I GIVE tithes. So, I don't tend to be legalistic about what to give.
I realize some people would not see it the way I see it especially due to preachers who have taught "tithe or go to hell"(which I don't agree with) However, i still believe in letting God into my finances as much as every other area of my life.
For me, it's an act of faith and trust. |
Nothing wrong with someone wanting to use 10% as a guide or standard to go off but this stuff about not giving tithes is robbing God and going to hell is so far off in error.
