As I grow in the Word, I try to do those things that are set forth in the Bible. My reading references tithing as an Old Testament practice to support the church. It is in the Old Testament that the word "tenth" is actually written. In the New Testament, I have not seen where a "tenth" was explicitly mentioned. I have only seen references to having a generous spirit. That said, living by the instructions of the New Testament, are we as Christians still expected to give a full tenth of our income?
