1 | what if i can't pay all of my tithes? | Mal 3:10 | vocab3802 | 172726 | ||
Giving tithes: I know it is a requirement and I'm perfectly happy to do what is required of God, but what if giving 10 percent of my check before taxes puts a strain on finances? Sometimes I don't give my full 10 percent because my finances are slim and I worry about not having enough to take care of all my needs. Then I feel very guility, like I'm cheating God. I do trust God and love Him. Does it mean that my faith isn't strong enough by not giving my full 10 percent and does that make me a sinner if I don't? Is it okay to give what I can afford? What should I do? vocab3802 |

2 | what if i can't pay all of my tithes? | Mal 3:10 | An infant in Christ | 172815 | ||
I know that sometimes it is tough especially when you are short in finances but God is always faithful and He always provides. My husband and I have been through many financial struggles, we even had to sell our home because times were tough, but we always tried to pay our tithes first, the only times we weren't able to were when we knew if we wrote the check it would bounce. If your bills include cable bills, internet bills or other optional bills I would say go without those before not tithing. We did not have cable for over a year. Believe me when we needed God, He was there for us. |

2 Corinthians 8:12 - How do you decide how much to give? What about differences in the financial resources Christians have? Paul gave the Corinthian church several principals to follow (1)each person should follow through on previous promises (8:10; 9:3); (2)each person should give as much as he is able (8:12; 9:6); (3) each person must make up his own mind how much to give (9:7); and (4) each person should give in proportion to what God has given (9:10). God gives to us so we can give to others. |
