What does the Bible Say about giving your money to the church, tithing,
donations and paying to pray? How do they pull this grand fraud off?
~FIRST, THE BIBLE ESTABLISHES THAT GOD OWNS EVERYTHING!
PSALMS 24:1
The earth is the Lord’s, and all its fullness, The world and those who dwell therein . (NKJ)
PSALMS 50:10
For every beast of the forest is Mine , And the cattle on a thousand hills. (NKJ)
PSALMS 50:11
I know all the birds of the mountains, And the wild beasts of the field are Mine . (NKJ)
HAGGAI 2:8
`The silver is Mine , and the gold is Mine ,’ says the Lord of hosts. (NKJ)
EZEKIEL 18:4
”Behold, all souls are Mine ; the soul of the father as well as the soul of the son is Mine ; the soul who sins shall die. (NKJ)
ROMANS 14:8
For if we live, we live to the Lord; and if we die, we die to the Lord. Therefore, whether we live or die, we are the Lord’s . (NKJ)
1 CORINTHIANS 6:20
For you were bought at a price ; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s. (NKJ)
1 CORINTHIANS 10:26
For ”The earth is the Lord’s, and all its fullness .” (NKJ)
~NEXT, WE ARE MERELY STEWARDS OVER HIS POSSESSIONS: THE PRINCIPLE OF DOMINION
GENESIS 1:26
Then God said, ”Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over
the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle,
over all th e earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the
earth.” (NKJ)
GENESIS 1:28
Then God blessed them, and God said to them, ”Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living t hing that moves on the earth.” (NKJ)
Based upon the above scriptures and many, many others, it is clear that
the entire earth, world, gold, silver, animals, and all people are
God’s! The principle of divine ownership teaches us that there is nothing that does not belong to God Himself!
So many Christians today fail to realize that God has asked and even commanded them to give and to tithe!
The bible claims that everything belongs to God! Not only the tithe,
but everything else: 100% belongs to Him. Christians are simply stewards
being obedient to their Heavenly Master. The tithe is simply the basic
starting point in Christian financial commitment.
You do not really own anything. So it is easier when you give to the to the church. You are giving god’s belongings to help his church.
~HOW DO I DETERMINE THE AMOUNT I SHOULD TITHE?
The
word tithe literally means 10 %. The amount we should tithe is 10 % of
all our increase. This includes any and all increase in the value of the
original capital investment. All capital gains from the sale of houses,
real estate , stocks, bonds, mach inery, etc. All increases based upon
our wages or salaries, including fringe benefits: employer paid health
insurance, dental insurance, life insurance, retirement contributions,
etc.
LEVITICUS 27:30
And
all the tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land, or of the
fruit of the tree, is the Lord’s: it is holy unto the Lord. (KJV)
LEVITICUS 27:31
And if a man will at all redeem ought of his tithes, he shall add thereto the fifth part thereof. (KJV)
LEVITICUS 27:32
And
concerning the tithe of the herd, or of the flock, even of whatsoever
passeth under the rod, the tenth shall be holy unto the Lord. (KJV)
God
has commanded us to tithe on all our increases. Whatever you receive,
whether it be from gifts, earnings, inheritances, etc. are to be tithed.
Those
who tithe usually have little difficulty tithing on their gross wages.
However, many fail to take into account the sales and profits from
houses, cars, boats, etc. Whenever we receive an increase above our original inve stment, we are to tithe!
Sometimes I am asked the question, ”What happens if I lose money on a investment?” My response is always the same: if we have an increase, God expects a tithe!
~WHERE ARE WE TO GIVE OUR TITHES?
MALACHI 3:7
Even from the days of your fathers ye are gone away from mine ordinances, and have not kept them . Return unto me, and I will return unto you, saith the Lord of hosts. But ye said, Wherein shall we return
Malachi 3:8-12
8“Should people cheat God? Yet you have cheated me!
“But you ask, ‘What do you mean? When did we ever cheat you?’
“You have cheated me of the tithes and offerings due to me.
9You are under a curse, for your whole nation has been cheating me.
10Bring all the tithes into the storehouse (church) so there will be enough food in my Temple. If you do,” says the LORD of Heaven’s Armies, “I will open the windows of heaven for you. I will pour out a blessing so great you won’t have enough room to take it in! Try it! Put me to the test!
11Your crops will be abundant, for I will guard them from insects and disease.Your grapes will not fall from the vine before they are ripe,” says the LORD of Heaven’s Armies.
12“Then all nations will call you blessed, for your land will be such a delight,” says the LORD of Heaven’s Armies.
~Storehouse Concept
The
concept of the storehouse in the Old Testament plays a very important
part in our understanding of New Testament tithing. The people, being
primarily agricultural, would bring their tithes of the land, cattle,
grain, fruits, vege tables, etc. to the l ocal Levites who were
responsible for the ministry in their local community. The Levites had a
storehouse in which the grain, meal, cattle, etc. would be stored for
later consumption and use. Notice that God said we were to bring all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house. His
house was in reference to what we call today the local church. It was
that place in which people would be able to receive their ministry and
care.
It is the local church who must baptize,
marry, counsel, and b ury the individuals. Therefore, God’s plan is for
the local church to receive the tithe for its services. Again, there is absolutely no scriptural support for the idea that the tithe is to go anywhere but to the local church.
I CORINTHIANS 16:1
Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I have given order to the churches of Galatia, even so do ye. (KJV)
I CORINTHIANS 16:2
Upon
the first day of the week let every one of you lay by him in store, as
God hath prospered him, that there be no gatherings when I come. (KJV)
Notice
the concept of laying in store for the first day of the week, Sunday.
Now I realize that this verse is referring to the offerings that were
designated for the suffering saints in Jerusalem, but I wish to point
out the principl e of storehouse and w eekly giving in the New Testament
setting.
The sole and primary purpose of the tithe
is to support those who are in the ministry and their families. The
tithe, as we will see, is not to be used for paying church mortgages or
electric bills, but is to go towards the support of the ministers on sta
ff in a local church.
1 CORINTHIANS 9:14
Even so hath the Lord ordained that they which preach the gospel should live of the gospel. (KJV)
1 CORINTHIANS 9:14
In the same way, the Lord has commanded that those who preach the gospel should receive their living from the gospel. (NIV)
LUKE 10:7
And
in the same house remain, eating and drinking such things as they give:
for the labourer is worthy of his hire. Go not from house to house.
(KJV)
1 TIMOTHY 5:17
Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who labour in the word and doctrine. (KJV)
1 TIMOTHY 5:17
The
elders who direct the affairs of the church well are worthy of double
honor, especially those whose work is preaching and teaching. (NIV)
These,
as well as other scriptures, show us that the ministers are not to live
in hardship, just barely getting by. As ministers are faithful to the
Lord and as their ministries grow so should their support financially.
Numbers 18:21
“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.
Numbers 18:24-29
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.’”
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.’
Verse 24 shows us that the Levites were to tithe, and that tithe was called the heave offering. The heave offering was used to support the priest that supported the Levites.
~NEW TESTAMENT TITHING
I heard one man say, ”I am not going to tithe. I live strictly by the New Testament and I don’t believe tithing is New Testament!”
I then proceeded to shout, ”Praise the Lord! Let us look at the New Testament!”
MATTHEW 23:23
Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for
ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the
weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye
to have done, and not t o leave the other undone . (KJV) (KJV)
MARK 10:21
Then Jesus beholding him loved him, and said unto him, One
thing thou lackest: go thy way, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to
the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, take up the cross, and fo llow me. (KJV)
MARK 12:41-44
Jesus sat down opposite the place where the offerings were put and watched the crowd putting their money into the temple treasury. Many rich people threw in large amounts. But a poor widow came and put in two very small copper coins, worth only a fraction of a penny. Calling his disciples to him, Jesus said, “I tell you the truth, this poor widow has put more into the treasury than all the others. They all gave out of their wealth; but she, out of her poverty, put in everything—all she had to live on.”
LUKE 11:42
”Woe
to you Pharisees, because you give God a tenth of your mint, rue and
all other kinds of garden herbs, but you neglect justice and the love of
God. You should have practiced the latter without leaving the former undone . (NIV)
LUKE 18:12
I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess.
HEBREWS 7:1-9
1For this Melchizedek, king of Salem, priest of the Most High God, who met Abraham as he was returning from the slaughter of the kings and blessed him,
2to whom also Abraham apportioned a tenth part of all the spoils, was first of all, by the translation of his name, king of righteousness, and then also king of Salem, which is king of peace.
3Without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but made like the Son of God, he remains a priest perpetually.
4Now observe how great this man was to whom Abraham, the patriarch, gave a tenth of the choicest spoils.
5And those indeed of the sons of Levi who receive the priest’s office have commandment in the Law to collect a tenth from the people, that is, from their brethren, although these are descended from Abraham.
6But the one whose genealogy is not traced from them collected a tenth from Abraham and blessed the one who had the promises.
7But without any dispute the lesser is blessed by the greater.
8In this case mortal men receive tithes, but in that case one receives them, of whom it is witnessed that he lives on.
9And, so to speak, through Abraham even Levi, who received tithes, paid tithes,
ACTS 2:44
And all that believed were together, and had all things common ; (KJV)
ACTS 2:45
And sold their possessions and goods , and parted them to all men , as every man had need. (KJV)
ACTS 4:32
And
the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul:
neither said any of them that ought of the things which he possessed was
his own; but they had all things common . (KJV)
ACTS 4:33
And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all. (KJV)
ACTS 4:34
Neither was there any among them that lacked: for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold, (KJV)
ACTS 4:35
And laid them down at the apostles’ feet: and distribution was made unto every man according as he had need. (KJV)
ACTS 4:36
And
Joses, who by the apostles was surnamed Barnabas, (which is, being
interpreted, the son of consolation,) a Levite, and of the country of
Cyprus, (KJV)
ACTS 4:37
Having land, sold it , and brought the money, and laid it at the apostles’ feet. (KJV)
I
then proceeded to tell the man that if he were strictly New Testament,
he would have to sell all that he had and bring it into the church, to
the apostles’ feet. After reading these scriptures, I was surprised at
how quickly this man changed his theolo gy regarding the law of the
tithe.
Galatians 6:7
Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, this he will also reap
Proverbs 3:9-10
Honor the Lord from your wealth and from the first of all your produce; so your barns will be filled with plenty and your vats will overflow with new wine.
Proverbs 11:24-25
There is one who scatters, and yet increases all the more, and there is one who withholds what is justly due, and yet it results only in want. The generous man will be prosperous, and he who waters will himself be watered.
2 Corinthians 8:11-15
11 Now finish the work, so that your eager willingness to do it may be matched by your completion of it, according to your means.
12 For if the willingness is there, the gift is acceptable according to what one has, not according to what one does not have.
13 Our desire is not that others might be relieved while you are hard pressed, but that there might be equality.
14 At the present time your plenty will supply what they need, so that in turn their plenty will supply what you need. The goal is equality,
15 as it is written: “The one who gathered much did not have too much, and the one who gathered little did not have too little.”
Guidelines for Giving
http://www.biblegateway.com/resources/commentaries/IVP-NT/2Cor/Guidelines-Giving
2 Corinthians 9:7
Each man should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.
Clearly Jesus is telling the Pharisees and scribes that they were to tithe on their increases and possessions ! The emphasis was not that they were not to tithe or that we are not to tithe, but that they sh ould understand judgement, mercy, and faith. Whatever we do today is in vain if it is not done in faith and love. But, please do not overlook the fact Jesus expected them to continue tithing !
~Tithing was not initially
instituted in the Mosaic law. In fact, it was a Biblical principle
instituted by God before the Law! Let us take a look at Abraham who
tithed unto the priest Melchizedek.
GENESIS 14:18
And Melchizedek king of Salem brought forth bread and wine: and he was the priest of the most high God. (KJV)
GENESIS 14:19
And he blessed him, and said, Blessed be Abram of the most high God, possessor of heaven and earth: (KJV)
GENESIS 14:20
And blessed be the most high God, which hath delivered thine enemies into thy hand. And he gave him tithes of all . (KJV)
This
passage of scripture clearly shows us the principle and the law of
tithing hundreds of years before the Mosaic Law was given.
Another example of tithing before the Mosaic Law was Jacob in Genesis 28:20-22.
GENESIS 28:20
And
Jacob vowed a vow, saying, If God will be with me, and will keep me in
this way that I go, and will give me bread to eat, and raiment to put
on, (KJV)
GENESIS 28:21
So that I come again to my father’s house in peace; then shall the Lord be my God: (KJV)
GENESIS 28:22
And this stone, which I have set for a pillar, shall be God’s house: and of all that thou shalt give me I will surely give the tenth unto thee . (KJV)
Jacob
made a vow unto God to serve Him and to tithe on all that the Lord
would give him. Let us look at the end result of Jacob’s life as a
result of his tithing unto the LORD.
GENESIS 33:11
Take,
I pray thee, my blessing that is brought to thee; because God hath
dealt graciously with me, and because I have enough. And he urged him,
and he took it . (KJV)
~What they claim…Selling you on tithing:
Tithing
is the means through which God is released to bless his people.
Scripture after scripture shows us that it is God’s desire for us to
prosper and be in health. The Bible also tells us that whatever we give
shall be give n back to us good measure, pressed down, shaken together
and running over. It teaches us that God will open up the windows of
heaven and pour out blessings that our storehouses will not be able to
contain.
The question is not whether you can afford to tithe, but rather, how in the world can you afford not to tithe?
Tithing is one of God’s means of bringing us into maturity and prosperity.
Tithing honors the LORD!
Tithing
demonstrates our faith in God’s power to supply all our needs. We
receive peace of mind knowing we are obeying God’s Word.
Tithing is an act of our faith because it allows God to bless the remaining 90% of our income.
Tithing blesses the church by enabling it to carry out a greater ministry to the world.
Through our obedience to God in tithing, we become good examples of financial stewardship in God’s Kingdom.
Please let me remind you that we are the stewards and not the owners of our possessions. GOD OWNS ALL !
TITHING IS NOT AN OPTION IT IS GOD’S COMMANDMENT!
You can tithe without loving God with all your heart, but you cannot love God with all your heart without tithing!

CHURCH OF TITHE?
http://churchtithesandofferings.com/
GIFT PLANS:
PRE-PAID GIFTING (TITHING)
Many people make annual cash donations to their church This practice is sometimes called a payment of tithes.
We have developed a Gift Plan known as Pre-paid Tithing™that achieves the equivalent of a triple tax deduction plus a life annuity. A Pre-paid Tithing plan can be established to support your church, religious organization, or other charity inperpetuity. The following example illustrates this planning technique.
-
Step 1: An individual or family establishes a family foundation with The American Foundation™.
-
Step 2: Real estate, stock or any other highly appreciated assets valued at $100,000 are transferred to your family foundation at The American Foundation.
-
Step 3: The asset is sold and the proceeds invested - in our example we are assuming an 8% annual return.
-
Step 4: Each year the family foundation distributes 5% to the family selected charities (donor’s church, etc.). In the above example, the assumed investment return is 8%, but only 5% is being paid out to charities each year, which allows the foundation account to grow by 3% annually. This would provide an ever increasing amount above the original $5,000 (5% of $100,000) that would be distributed to charities each year.
The donor achieves the equivalent of a triple deduction, plus a life annuity:
1. The donor receives a full $100,000 charitable gift income tax deduction, limited to 30% of AGI (50% if a cash contribution) in each year. Any unused deduction can be carried forward for five additional years.
2. Because The American Foundation is tax-exempt, there is no capital gains tax when the property or stock is sold. This is equivalent to an additional full tax deduction.
3. The property or asset is removed from the donor’s estate, which is equivalent to a 100% estate tax deduction.
4. Assuming that the donor in this case is normally making cash donations to his or her church or charity, the result of this new foundation account would be increased annual cash flow to the donor by the amount that he/she is no longer contributing personally to charity. The family foundation makes these same donations. This results in an increase in personal cash-flow for life, which is the definition of an annuity.
This plan works equally well with cash or assets that are not appreciated.
