7 Facts Christians Should Know about Tithing

First of all, why is tithing even an issue?

Let’s see:

Some Christians believe they OWE God some money.

Some Christians are paying tithes before paying their bills.

Some Christians feel condemned or guilty because they can’t afford to “give God” 10% of their income.

Some Christians think they must tithe in order to prosper.

Some Christians are going broke trying to “pay God” some money.

Some Christians take tithing scriptures out of context.

Too many Christians don’t read the Bible for themselves “to show thyself approved.”

This list can go on, but let’s get down to the nitty gritty. There is so much confusion and misinformation about tithing among Christians today.

It’s time that Christians discover the truth. The Bible says “the truth shall set you free.”

Ready to get free? Good. Here we go.
