1 | Can you please explain tithing? | Malachi | lisandra | 163220 | ||
Can anyone tell me if a tithe MUST be given to your home church or can you give it to another church that actually needs the money. Also, if you know someone who is in need can you give them the money and have it be your tithe? My husband and I have had an ongoing disagreement about this for years. Any answers will be helpful. Thank you! | ||||||
2 | Can you please explain tithing? | Malachi | winningside | 163221 | ||
Malachi3:8-10 "Will a man rob God? Yet you rob me. "But you ask, 'How do we rob you?' "In tithes and offerings. 9 You are under a curse—the whole nation of you—because you are robbing me. 10 Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this," says the LORD Almighty, "and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that you will not have room enough for it. i sincerely hope that this answers your question. I use to try to give it to the poor and do what I wanted with my tithes, but God says to bring the tithes into the storehouse. Our responsiblity is give to the local church that is spiritually feeding us, that is what we are commanded to do. After that, God will deal with the local church with what HE wants done with the money. But you have done your part. You gave to your local church. It is now out of your hands and you will be blessed. As for giving to the poor and to another church, that should be an additional offering. God Bless! |
