The longer answer is it all depends. To me, tithing is not synonymous with salvation. Tithing needs to be taught and considered after someone has been born again and begun to walk with the Lord. But, like holiness, it is part of their relationship with Jesus. And, like holiness, giving is one manifestation of spiritual maturity.

So if one doesn't believes in tithes they would not have a relationship with Christ? Of course, we know those who love God are givers.
