Subject: Tilthe calculation:On gross or net pay? |
Bible Note: Hank- May I add, also our talents can be tithed. There are people with talents, musically, that could be giving them to the Lord. Or gifted in the area of working with children. As far as people with the higher incomes being able to give more generously, I think that it is harder, sometimes for a person who is well off to give that tenth (1000 dollars is a lot of money in one lump sum compared with, let's say 10) and greed can come into play easier. I know of people who, although their income has grown, give the same as they gave years in the past. |
