Had a conversation with my pastor today. He believes tithing (the 10% principal in Malachi 3:10) is exclusively to the church where I am inclined to believe that is it giving to anything that is of God’s work and for His glory. What do you think?

What do you think?

Tithing is exclusively 10% to your church and outside the church is additional offering
Anything that is in His name works
It can be a mix and is 100% up to the giver
Fuck You!

Biblically, it’s is very much monetary, resource, and sustenance oriented. That can be money, time, food, clothing, donating transportation etc.

The premise is that everything is God’s and we are only stewards. Nothing belongs to us. Anything that comes to us is 100% God’s and all He asks is that we give 10% of that back in his name.

I know how and why tithing is a thing. I also know if you are donating money to any charity you are a fucking idiot.

Charity is your labor, your skills, and your time. You cant buy your way into Gods good grace.

I’m not buying my way into Grace it’s being biblical and a good Christian as the Bible instructs.

The "bible" New Testament was written in the 15th century by a bunch of monarchs looking for ways to manage their vassals.

Monetary tithing is not "Christian", "biblical", or in honor of God.
