It is demeaning to be told you are robbing God when you are not. It is demeaning to be told you are preaching a falsehoods when you are not.

The truth is that the other sides claims will always sound demeaning because someone has to be wrong and doing a disservice to gods church.

It's either the mandatory tithe teachers or those that teach against mandatory tithing. Whoever it is, there's no way not to demean the wrong thing they do.

It is always o.k. to make a stand for biblical truth, but is there a right way to do it. Some of the tone and remarks made here demonize men who love the Lord and are sincere about what they believe. Bitterness is the wrong motivation to lead from.

Considering the large majority of churches (most every denomination) do teach tithe this demeaning message could actually keep people out of the church completely. Our focus should be on winning the lost and not exposing all the faults we find in others. Eventually there will never be a church biblical true enough for anyone.
