we tithe or give offering in principle being led by the Spirit. The giving is to those who need. Not a building, though that is beneficial and you should give to the building up of the body. The commandment of Christ is the basis of all law since the beginning.
Mark 12:29-31 will always be true and application is always seen. His law is the same law he was judged under and we failed.
someone he doesn't tithe... Well...
1) are they following God's leading?
2) are they truly trusting in him or the flesh?
usually a person that doesn't give is failing in one of these two areas. We can give all we want but unless you are giving according to the Spirit leading you. You still could be robbing God as his will is what is perfect. If you don't know what to give 10% is always a good basis and I don't teach anything strict of what is the right amount. God will reward you and lead you seeing your reponse form the heart. God may ask you to store UP that which he has blessed you for a time of famine.
