I have seen that many non believers, or even people that do believe in God and church, think that Christians only want money. Do they not realize what this money goes to? It is not for making the pastor rich, or being on television, or building a bigger church. It is for helping people.
God tells us in the Bible that we must give tithe and offerings. Not only does this help to keep the church open, but it helps those in need. My Grandmother is an active member in her church. She is going through some really rough financial problems right now. The church she attends has told her to never put gas in her car again, because they will do it for her. They also supply her with money to help on her bills and living expenses. Without the people giving to the church, they would not be able to help her. This is done for many people that come through and need money for ligit things.
Why do people not understand this?
