buy Bibles for inmates? Do you think that counts as towards your tithe?

some things would be up to your concience
I think it might be wise in general to give most of you giving like that to a church where the giving will the combined with others and planned better and spent well but in the end there is room for personal choice and concience

Look; if you are asking for a loophole in the law - you will not find it - YAHWEH IS PERFECT - YAHWEH IS ONE.
No, you must not look at tithe as a debt ... it is YAHWEH'S (YHWH'S) money - his tithe .. he allows you a pay check or an INCREASE ... you owe him that increase - IT IS NOT OURS OR YOURS ... IT belongs to Yahweh ...
Then again - if you do not pay your tithe to the PLACE WHERE YAHWEH HAS CHOSEN TO PLACE HIS NAME (established in the las days ) ... you are paying your tithe to the GODS ... whether capatilized or not ...
Yahweh is not a god or a God or a GOD at all = he is our creator and loving Father that wants none to perish ...
THEN AGAIN ... WHO WILL READ AND ... KEEEEEEEEEEEEEEPPPPPP HIS LAW ... very few - only 144,000 from the day of Adam and Eve until the Remenant of that number today ...
Don't worry if you are kept in the world and do not come to the HOUSE OF YAHWEH in Abilene, Texas ... if you withhold your tithes ... you deny YOUR GODS ... and nothing wrong with that.
If you are called by Yahweh to his son Yahsuah and withhold your tithes ... you will die.
Hope this answered you ...
Peace;

tithing was used for the isrealites to give wages to the priests the levities because their job was to take care of the temple or tabernacle, so they had no source of income or food.
the function of tithing still is the same today. the job of a pastor, evangelist, priest, missionaries...minister in general, their role in society is to "save lives", which does not generate any income. they stand in front of people and preach & study god's work but do not get an hourly wage. that is why we give our tithes, so they can have their money to live, that is usually how the conference of different churches delegate the money going out to preachers

Yes and if you do work for people in your church for free or just for eats yes that to me is titheing. Tithe dosen't alway have to be money to the church.

Getting tied-up with the issue of tithing is a mistake.

I don't like this brownie point system.Do all those things because you are a caring human being,not to rack up points for beyond.The afterlife isn't YQ&A!
