Every person I have personally dealt with who had a beef with tithing also had a problem with authority.

True, that.
Every person I have personally dealt with who refused to submit to "firstfruits" giving also had huge control issues.

You realize it can just as easily be said that pastors who insist that church members pay tithes have huge contol issues.

Likewise, it could just as easily be said that a Shetland Pony might win the Kentucky Derby, but I think we all kniw that isn't likely.
The fact is, however, that tithing is a biblical principle, not a hallmark of control issues.

The fact is, however, that tithing is biblical and man has made it a principle, an ear mark of many issues.
Funny thing.... bring up money and the preacher talks of Horse Races.

I've been saying all along that it is a Biblical prinicple, so what's the beef? If you don't think that a preacher getting into a pulpit and demanding that people pay tithes or they will go to hell doesn't have some control issues then I don't know what to tell you. I've been there, got the t-shirt and decided to give it back. There's a right and a wrong way of presenting Biblical principles.

1Cr 9:13 Do ye not know that they which minister about holy things live [of the things] of the temple? and they which wait at the altar are partakers with the altar?
1Cr 9:14 Even so hath the Lord ordained that they which preach the gospel should live of the gospel.
Your argument is with the Scripture, not with men.

required for what? Does it matter? If it was a salvation issue to keep your soul out of hell then would you tithe?
