Couldn't have said it better 👍👍👍

Amen

You are not giving the money to God. You are giving it to a bureaucracy of humans. Look where it led the Catholics!

Awesome!

It shouldn't be whatever that church decides to do with that money. thats how people get ripped off and it has happened many times. an honest church should show you what they're doing with tithing money.

If you need a better income CBN has utube videos about 'financial freedom'. In these videos people talk about when they started tithing to CBN they started experiencing financial miracles of wealth. Now they tithe to CBN from a wealthy prosperous income. 🤗🙏

And I have a pastor he's always pleading for people to give to Voice Of The Martyrs ministry. He believe him and his family are healthy and prosperous because they tithe to that ministry so you can try giving to it if you like.

@@christslove8121 Unfortunately, those few success stories are not the portion of every tithers.

God provided for you, not because you "tithe", but because God loves you, sees your heart, and takes care of His children. The Biblical "Tithe" has nothing to do with the new testament church bride of Christ. You must "give", being led by the Holy Spirit, not by a "tithe" mandate made by some man, or a building, or group of people, that was strictly for the Levitical priesthood and had nothing to do with "money", but agricultural products; in other words, Food, that people ate together. Listen to the Holy Spirit instead of a man and see the True blessings of God!

@@learneroftruth9697 I actually agree with you! I didn't give because of a mandate. I believe God blesses when we don't hold onto things of this world too tightly.

its 10% or nothing.

Well...Malachi 3 is talking to the priesthood which none of us are. Priests were literally stealing the meat and reselling it. Without learning the old testament we lose a lot of info. See 1 Samuel 2:12-17 Pastors use this to make people feel guilty. Believe it or not many seminaries teach pastors how to get people to "tithe" money. They also teach them that old testament law has passed but they hold on to tithing. Strangely enough money was never meant for a tithe. Remember when Jesus said render to ceasar want is cesars and render to God what is God's? On top of that if you did exhange money for a tithe you were penalized for it. I've had this discussion before and below is part of the convo. There is more than one tithe Types of Tithes 1. The Levitical Tithe Numbers 18:21-24New International Version (NIV) 21 “I give to the Levites all the tithes in Israel as their inheritance in return for the work they do while serving at the tent of meeting. 22 From now on the Israelites must not go near the tent of meeting, or they will bear the consequences of their sin and will die. 23 It is the Levites who are to do the work at the tent of meeting and bear the responsibility for any offenses they commit against it. This is a lasting ordinance for the generations to come. They will receive no inheritance among the Israelites. 24 Instead, I give to the Levites as their inheritance the tithes that the Israelites present as an offering to the Lord. That is why I said concerning them: ‘They will have no inheritance among the Israelites.’” This was a tithe given to the Levites for their work. The Levites are the descendents of Levi, one of the twelve sons of Jacob (also known as Israel) which then became the twelve tribes of Israel. In the time of Moses, the entire tribe of Levi were designated as Priests, with Aaron as their High Priest. There duties were to take care of the upkeep and transportation of the Tabernacle (the physical representation of God's dwelling place) and to offer sacrifices on behalf of the people. (Who, in Old Testament times, were unable to access God by themselves.) The Levites still live to this day, as far as I know, but their office has become obsolete since the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, who now holds the office of Prophet, Priest and King for all people. In sense the Levitical Tithe is obsolete. 2. The Festival Tithe - Deuteronomy 14:22-27New International Version (NIV) 22 Be sure to set aside a tenth of all that your fields produce each year. 23 Eat the tithe of your grain, new wine and olive oil, and the firstborn of your herds and flocks in the presence of the Lord your God at the place he will choose as a dwelling for his Name, so that you may learn to revere the Lord your God always. 24 But if that place is too distant and you have been blessed by the Lord your God and cannot carry your tithe (because the place where the Lord will choose to put his Name is so far away), 25 then exchange your tithe for silver, and take the silver with you and go to the place the Lord your God will choose. 26 Use the silver to buy whatever you like: cattle, sheep, wine or other fermented drink, or anything you wish. Then you and your household shall eat there in the presence of the Lord your God and rejoice. 27 And do not neglect the Levites living in your towns, for they have no allotment or inheritance of their own. - Deuteronomy 16:16-17New International Version (NIV) 16 Three times a year all your men must appear before the Lord your God at the place he will choose: at the Festival of Unleavened Bread, the Festival of Weeks and the Festival of Tabernacles. No one should appear before the Lord empty-handed: 17 Each of you must bring a gift in proportion to the way the Lord your God has blessed you. This tithe was set aside for the festivals listed in the verse above. In sense the Festival Tithe is obsolete. However; should it be? Why is it that we don't keep to the festivals but we do celebrate Easter and Christmas which are not even mentioned in the bible and were never celebrated by anyone until the Romans adopted it from Pagan practices? Even still it wasn't until around 1860 that it became something big here in the US. That is a bit of another topic but I'd like to talk about that one too! 3. The Poor Tithe -Deuteronomy 14:28-29 28 At the end of every three years, bring all the tithes of that year’s produce and store it in your towns, 29 so that the Levites (who have no allotment or inheritance of their own) and the foreigners, the fatherless and the widows who live in your towns may come and eat and be satisfied, and so that the Lord your God may bless you in all the work of your hands. -Deuteronomy 26:12 12 When you have finished setting aside a tenth of all your produce in the third year, the year of the tithe, you shall give it to the Levite, the foreigner, the fatherless and the widow, so that they may eat in your towns and be satisfied. This tithe was for the poor and needy. It seems that the government has somewhat taken this one which isn't their responsibility. That's another topic too but not more political and I don't really talk politics. You mentioned it today and I was glad to hear it when you said that if someone doesn't feel comfortable giving to the church then give somewhere else where it is needed. I think a lot of people give in guilt thinking that they can't go to heaven or be accepted by God if they don't which to me is untrue. In turn some even give to the church and might want to be able to help someone in need and not be able to cause they gave their extra to the church or even say they can't cause they have to pay their tithe. That's where Matthew 23:23-25 kinda touches on. Helping others in need comes before the tithe. We shouldn't get so caught up in following the law and cause us to miss out on helping others in need. I know it is speaking on more than just that too. I just can't see Jesus saying to someone, "You gave that person all your money instead of to the church? Shame on you!" This tithe is still possible as I see it. I also understand that the church distributes this type of tithe to the poor and needy. As you stated today though, we can distribute it ourselves when we see fit.

4. The Priest Tithe This was the tithe for the Levites to give to the priests. - Numbers 18:25-32New International Version (NIV) 25 The Lord said to Moses, 26 “Speak to the Levites and say to them: ‘When you receive from the Israelites the tithe I give you as your inheritance, you must present a tenth of that tithe as the Lord’s offering. 27 Your offering will be reckoned to you as grain from the threshing floor or juice from the winepress. 28 In this way you also will present an offering to the Lord from all the tithes you receive from the Israelites. From these tithes you must give the Lord’s portion to Aaron the priest. 29 You must present as the Lord’s portion the best and holiest part of everything given to you.’30 “Say to the Levites: ‘When you present the best part, it will be reckoned to you as the product of the threshing floor or the winepress. 31 You and your households may eat the rest of it anywhere, for it is your wages for your work at the tent of meeting. 32 By presenting the best part of it you will not be guilty in this matter; then you will not defile the holy offerings of the Israelites, and you will not die.’” -Deuteronomy 18:1-2New International Version (NIV) 18 The Levitical priests-indeed, the whole tribe of Levi-are to have no allotment or inheritance with Israel. They shall live on the food offerings presented to the Lord, for that is their inheritance. 2 They shall have no inheritance among their fellow Israelites; the Lord is their inheritance, as he promised them. Leviticus 27:30-34New International Version (NIV) 30 “‘A tithe of everything from the land, whether grain from the soil or fruit from the trees, belongs to the Lord; it is holy to the Lord. 31 Whoever would redeem any of their tithe must add a fifth of the value to it. 32 Every tithe of the herd and flock-every tenth animal that passes under the shepherd’s rod-will be holy to the Lord. 33 No one may pick out the good from the bad or make any substitution. If anyone does make a substitution, both the animal and its substitute become holy and cannot be redeemed.’”34 These are the commands the Lord gave Moses at Mount Sinai for the Israelites. If you redeem your land or food tithe you must add 1/5 to it. 1/5 of 100% is 20%. 20%=10%=30%. OR add 1/5 of the value of the tithe. 1/5 of 10% is 2%=12%. Technically we don't give food/grain tithes so shouldn't we either pay a 30% tithe or depending on the interpretation of the scripture 12% tithe to be biblically correct? The descendants of Aaron were priests: Exodus 28:41-42 NIV 41 After you put these clothes on your brother Aaron and his sons, anoint and ordain them. Consecrate them so they may serve me as priests. 42 “Make linen undergarments as a covering for the body, reaching from the waist to the thigh. 43 Aaron and his sons must wear them whenever they enter the tent of meeting or approach the altar to minister in the Holy Place, so that they will not incur guilt and die. “This is to be a lasting ordinance for Aaron and his descendants. Technically only Aaron, his sons and descendants could be priests correct? Not even Jesus could be a priest: -Hebrews 8:4-5 4 If he were on earth, he would not be a priest, for there are already priests who offer the gifts prescribed by the law. 5 They serve at a sanctuary that is a copy and shadow of what is in heaven. This is why Moses was warned when he was about to build the tabernacle: “See to it that you make everything according to the pattern shown you on the mountain.” This tithe was for the priests. If no one but Aaron and his descendants could be priests then technically there are no more priests correct? There is no longer a temple. Biblically speaking can we even tithe the way it was commanded here? Having said all this I'm not saying we shouldn't give. I think it is important and God will bless us for doing so. He has me. I just found it interesting. I know we are instructed to give and God loves a cheerful giver.

Malachi is written to priests who abused the tithe. Try again.

Do y'all practice all of the Law?

1 Peter 2:4 in there greed they will come up with cleaver lies to get hold of your money

🤔To whom do you pay a tithe?? Anyone?

No, they just want money. Your time is not valuable enough.

We cannot misguide anyone. You should always give a 1/10th of your income even if you don’t have much or are in a bind. God comes in front of the debt you have been given or the debt you have caused. Giving before you pay off your debt is an act of faith. A way to say: God I may be in a financial bind, but you are more important. I trust you with my money. In fact, if I had no money and all was taken from me, I’d still have everything I need in you. The very reason why you might be in a financial bind could be that God wants to move inside you. He wants you to trust Him even when things are chaotic and unknown. To the people compromising and saying, “Just give your time, or just give this instead.” Stop. Faith doesn’t compromise. God has the power to get you out of that financial bind and you are going to keep your 10% in a lack of faith that He can’t save your situation? Tithing is giving to God in praise and worship. It is a recognition that God is greater than any material item in this world. Give to Him first and He will help your situation. Trust Him in everything and with everything. Trust Him with your kids. Trust Him with your spouse. Trust Him with your money. Trust Him. Faith is as simple as that. And guess what? WHEN trials come, you will have built the faith to remain in Him fully, with your undivided love and trust.

I wouldn’t even want to waste my time there either lol

Curtis Jordan Fair enough. But you’re probably not a Christian so move on.

Apex Funny Moments What? How do you know the state of one’s soul from one comment? And if this person is not a Christian, that changes nothing on how a Christian should treat them. So tired of an “us vs them” mentality when there is no such thing!

You’re 100% correct nowhere in the Bible does it say that you must tithe 10%?

Malachi was for the Levi priests who were stealing from the store house. They got cursed not the people.

@@marielang9552 the word tithe literally translates 10% in Hebrew.

If you realize everything we have comes from God, and we are a stewart of God's Money Tithing is not me giving God 10% of my money but Gods is letting me keep 90% of His Money Everything you have given me is yours God. The purpose of tithing is to teach us to always to put Gods first in our lives.

By definition of tithe it actually does.

@@thomaseidson6374 I mean one would argue that the church is the Catholic Church but I really don't want a troubles era of conflict for this comment.

Not to mention that regular tithing was just a tax system.

@Periwinkle Peryy Non-Jewish Christians do not have to keep kosher OR keep the sabbath. Read the letters of Paul and see the differences between Pauline Christianity and Jewish Christianity as practiced under James by the Jerusalem church. You're all over the place and are obviously only repeating something you were told.

There are also rules about how and why this was and a lot of this is challenged in the New Testament. Also some countries today under sharia law still allow this or at least execution for some things that shouldn’t be allowed

Sweetheart can I chat with you secretly?

So why not give all you money

Even when paying down debt?!

There was more than one tithe, all *only* for the Jews that made their living off the land. It never applied to Christians. It was always food. Listen to George W. Greene's videos. The tithe was only for the Jews. There is not a single instruction for Christians to tithe in the NT. It's for the Jewish people's religious system - when they had the temple. Even Jews don't tithe since it was destroyed. There is no storehouse. There are no priests.

Do not forget that Jesus himself says he came not to abolish the law but to fulfill it. The new covenant doesn't eliminate the the old, only completes it.

Very well put

And if Christ fulfilled the law, then we who are in him are no longer under the law (see Romans 7 for Paul’s thoughts on this).

yes, he fulfilled the law, so we wouldn't be under its bondage. My thing is why do so many extract tithing from the law, change it from meat to money, even though money was very relevant, and apply it to Christians. Yet many do not practice all other things under the ceremonial law, in which tithing was categorized under? If we follow one part of the law, we must follow it all, or we're guilty of it all. A monetary tithe as a Commandment is found nowhere in scripture. If a person gives 10% let it be by choice. If a person can only give below that, or even above, let it be done according to their heart. God bless and Merry Christmas...

@@stalstonestacy4316 You should give as much as you can. God loves a cheerful giver. If you tithe do it the right way. There are 3 types of tithe described in the Bible (1)...Abraham tithed once in his life time. He gave the spoils of the war not his properties. If you ever win a war give the spoils of the war. (2)...The Pharisees tithed mint, dill and cumin (3)...The Priests (Levites) did not have inheritance. They did not own the land. The other 11 tribes of Israel were to give them tithe. Pick one and do it rightly. Remember if you pick # 3 you have to obey the other 613 laws.

“Give to Ceasar what is Ceasar and to God what is God’s.” -Jesus ; that meant pay your taxes and your tithe. They are not the same thing.

Roman Berezutskiy - the tithe was the Biblical tax base for Israel. I invite you to actually read your Bible and not just listen to the cliff-notes passed down from preacher to preacher.

@@obits3 able gave the first fruits of his harvest to God. Abraham gave "a tenth of everything" to Melchizedek a priest of God. Tithing goes back a long thousands of years before Israel and the law. It is not and was not a baseline tax, it is an offering to God giving him thanks for what he has blessed you with.

Brandon Cadena - Abraham and Jacob’s tithes were not the “reap and sow” tithes preached today. They gave 10% of the riches they gained as thanks to God (Abraham) and to keep his word to God (Jacob actually said he would tithe if God made him wealthy).

Tom Forge Please quit compromising Tom. You are making it seem like a burden that God asks us to give 10% to Him. This is the God of the universe we are talking about. Showing faith by giving to God (also growing His church) should be what we desire, not what we complain about. Quit trying to convince yourself that you have no flaw in your argument.

Dave Ramsey is a religious shill pretending to help people when he’s actually costing them hundreds of thousands of dollars over their lifetime by advocating voluntary payments to religious institutions.

@Owl_Lover Pastor and Swindler. But I repeat myself...

So what? Maybe somebody in the church buys it for him as a gift. Not really up to you to judge the motives here. If you don’t like it, don’t go to that church

I don't think It's God will to build up debt anyway but regardless he is faithful

treyatl2006 and if he was asked "should I give directly to a family member in baby steps" he'd likely say no. The core of his advice is sound but on some topics I have to disagree

Dave has always said that if you can’t make it on 90% then you can’t make it on 100%. He’s always acknowledged that there is likely much more you can cut from your budget and tighten the belt down a notch to still give your tithe freely and still work the baby’s steps. He also tells you that the tithe is not a spiritual disqualifer, and Dave doesn’t dive into the debate of 10% gross or net pay, God wants us to give and give freely. So no the tithe is not at odds with the baby steps, if you’ve read his books,followed his teachings closely and listened intentionally you would see this quite clearly, to say otherwise would be calling his integrity into question, which I and many others find is above reproach

jacob Earnhart well someone who is doing the baby steps can't make it at all that's the whole point. Someone who is in debt is basically paying interest to tithe. What sort of God wouldn't want His child to help themselves out of financial dispair? Seems a bit counter-intuitive to me. Dave is a good guy but he's no prophet. He's just a guy with a microphone.

@@jacobearnhart7610 well said, sir!

It looks as if he’s not consistent because this is a spiritual issue. It doesn’t always make sense to unbelievers. I joyfully tithed unemployment and NEVER ran out of money for over a year....and unemployment only lasted 4 months. I was faithful with a little and God showed up and made sure i never ran out.

Give it to the one you go to. Just cause a church is closing doesn't mean God wills for it to not close.

Do drug lords and non-Christians tithe? and why are some rich than Christians?

Witney Jiménez What is taxes,we’re already tithing without even knowing it

@Phillip Malone Tithing as you think of it is not either.

Those come under the Christian category

Yes, any debt your currently owe should be paid first. As Jesus said, first make up with your brother and then give your gift to the church.

Agreed 100%

No.

tl57345 How are we giving to God when regular men are passing around the collection plates? Churches should be honest and just say that the money is for the upkeep of the church, not God.

True. But why work overtime if a good chunk goes to taxes and tithing?

Venus Unlocked, before we worry about tithing which is or response to Jesus’ finished work on the cross. The Father loved us so much that he sent his one and only Son to die for my sins and for the sins of all who would place their faith in him. If you haven’t accepted Jesus’ death as a complete and full payment for your sin, then please consider this first. Once you trust in Him you will see the tithe isn’t to earn His favor but simply a response to the most valuable gift creation has ever seen. Yes, myself and others who bear the name of Christ still sin. Please do not let the sins of man taint your perception of the perfection of Jesus.

Sounds good, but it's not biblical.

False

The good news is you don't have to tithe at all. There's no such thing as a biblical monetary tithe. We are free to give as we are able and lead, but not bound to pay as many would have us believe.

Is it better for the church to have financially strong members paying big time later on or money in the bank now and more members struggling? If the church isn't in the red now, I'll get my own financial house in order first. What is tithing really at the end of the day? Paying the church's bills.

@@Scorpiomaj27889 If you don't give a dollar when you only have 10 dollars, you won't give a 1000 when you have 10000. If you are in a faithful church, they are preaching the gospel and doing missions, feeding the poor, helping those in need. That's what you're giving to

The Bible doesn't tell Christians to tithe. It was for the Jews and their religious system. There were 3, perhaps 4 tithes, and they were always food and only those that made their living off the land tithed and the tithe was only on the increase. If someone had 10 cows and only one gave birth, they didn't owe anything. Listen to George W. Greene's videos. Read your Bible. The tithe is not for Christians. I tried tithing before I found out it doesn't apply to us. You cannot give your way out of debt. Jesus and his family did not tithe. I am so tired of Christians being taught the tithe lie.

@Miari Bishop But they won't until they learn the hard way like I did. Then when you try to tell them the truth they don't want to hear it. They will never tell you of all the people that tithed instead of paying doctor bills, tithed instead of paying their mortgage, etc and wound up homeless. They will never tell you that because they are rich. Get it? Read the entire book of Romans. I put my trust in Jesus Christ not a mosaic law that does not apply to me, never did. It only applied to the Priests. That was done away with in Jesus Christ. That is what the entire book of Romans is talking about. Bother to read it people. Instead of parroting how you think you got a high paying job because you tithed? Really? What did satan offer Jesus? Everything. satan blesses his own.

People don’t give to God because they have to make room for their selfishness. This is ALWAYS the issue.

(so they are tithing $1,000/month, which is half of $2,000/month). A tithe is 10% of your income - so $1,000 is 10% of their pay. Therefore their pay is 1,000 x 10 = 10,000 dollars a month. Now some people do 10% of their take home pay, some do 10% of their gross income before taxes. But they are making somewhere in the ballpark of 10K a month. Unless they are giving a HUGE "tithe" which is much more than 10%.

So right now, they are putting only 20% towards debt? Where is their money going?

You should give as much as you can. God loves a cheerful giver. If you tithe do it the right way. There are 3 types of tithe described in the Bible (1)...Abraham tithed once in his life time. He gave the spoils of the war not his properties. If you ever win a war give the spoils of the war. (2)...The Pharisees tithed mint, dill and cumin (3)...The Priests (Levites) did not have inheritance. They did not own the land. The other 11 tribes of Israel were to give them tithe. Pick one and do it rightly. Remember if you pick # 3 you have to obey the other 613 laws.

The bible says to give your tithe to your local church "store house" so actually you do need to give your tithe to your church. God designed tithe to work like that. But you should tithe to a church that you trust. The church that I go to only a small percent of the church was paying their tithes and the pastor touched on it but its their jobs to guide you spiritually which your tithes are very well a spiritual representation of your obedience.

@@jacoblatham7053 A Church is not a storehouse. A storehouse is a storehouse. You do not that cows, goat, crops to Church. Tithe was also enjoyed by the tithers in what was called festival tithe.

If you need a better income CBN has utube videos about 'financial freedom'. In these videos people share about when they started tithing to CBN they started experiencing financial miracles of wealth. Now they tithe to CBN from a prosperous wealthy income. 🤗🙏

George W. Greene videos. You need to read your Bible.

I'm not sure if you do but if you need a better income CBN has utube videos about 'financial freedom'. In these videos people share about when they started tithing to CBN they started experiencing financial miracles of wealth. Now they tithe to CBN from a prosperous wealthy income. Just a suggestion. 🤗🙏

One of my pastors preaches a similar story only it's about his blessings from tithing to Voice Of The Martyrs Ministry. He believes him and his family are healthy and prosperous because they tithe to that ministry. And someone gave them a big beautiful house when they started tithing to it.

Same here 👍

Roman Berezutskiy nope catholic dont tithe....i came from catholic family

@@fireeye33 We Catholics do not bind ourselves to the Mosaic law. We are mandated to give, but the 10% rule is excluded in preference to loving choice.

Michael Saunders yes bc Catholic teaching when it comes to giving offerings are based on the early church teaching. Back in those days there were no teaching about 10% tithe. The tithing idea came after prosperity theology is created as well as hypergrace theology...sadly all came from America.

@@pepehands8224 Hah; no.

There's no such thing as a catholic Christian, it's either one or the other! Not both!

You left the truth? Noemi Guerrero

Weldon C. No, I left the JW church. I actually found the truth after leaving that behind, it was the best decision of my life.

Noemi Guerrero what do jw believe ??

Hence the context of the answer. This question was asked by an Evangelical Christian most likely so he's answering for them. Of course people who are not Christian are not going to be tithing.

And one of my pastors is always pleading for people to give to Voice Of The Martyrs ministry. He believes him and his family are prosperous and healthy because they tithe to that ministry.

Stop complicating things and just tithe.

@@pepehands8224 Why are you commenting on every comment. Seem to have a pretty stuck up opinion...

"'Will a man rob God? Yet you are robbing Me!' You ask: 'How do we rob You?' 'By not making the payments of the tenth and the contributions'" (Mal. 3:8)

Some people feel that God is more important than money. And some people also believe that God will provide for them all things.

@@cristonureste9250 Well then some people are dumb.

Jesus condemned the Jewish religious leaders doing that - Mark 7:9-13 "And he continued, “You have a fine way of setting aside the commands of God in order to observe[a] your own traditions! 10 For Moses said, ‘Honor your father and mother,’[b] and, ‘Anyone who curses their father or mother is to be put to death.’ But you say that if anyone declares that what might have been used to help their father or mother is Corban (that is, devoted to God)- then you no longer let them do anything for their father or mother. Thus you nullify the word of God by your tradition that you have handed down. And you do many things like that.”

Sounds like you should have gone to a church with a genuine pastor, not given up doing what God has asked, but...idk?

Absolutely true

You my friend , have a heart problem not a tithing problem.

Bless you Mark for sharing this. You made it very plain based on facts.

But that is exceedingly rare.

BLProductions TRULY!!!

Biblical tithes were not received as money although money was in circulation during those times. Blessings in your giving.

Just a thought, God bless! 🤗🙏

@@christslove8121 If you need a better income, work hard, learn, get properly educated, take measured risks, and stop listening to Prosperity Gospel nonsense.

"Not tithing is a great way to mess up your finances" I've never tithed and am a multimillionaire. Will we be ok since we are atheists? :} We do donate 40-50% of our income (most of our net worth increases come from capital gains at this point, not "income"} directly to good charities though. Mostly food banks,veterans charities, shelters for abused women and children, and animal shelters. We even donate to a couple of "church" run food banks because we know the money is going to buy food, not to enrich the pastor.
