I personally tithe and give offerings. There have been times when I was short and did not tithe. There has also been a time when God had the pastor give me my tithe back. God does not need our money, but it takes money to do ministry. But God will (not man) have us to give to test where our hearts lie. Most people who have a problem giving either give for the wrong reasons or just do not want to give. If one is being led by the Holy Spirit and not their flesh, they will give according to their faith.
We own nothing on his earth.
God trusted us to care for His property...
Much more than two pence
and More than 5 Talons
Are you a good stewart?
