"If a believer wishes to tithe out of a personal conviction , that is fine . Tithing becomes a problem when it is represented as God's command , binding upon every believer." ( Pagan Christianity , pg.178,Frank Viola.) When you have been thrown into deeper poverty because you felt obligated to give beyond your means , that is NOT the command of God! That is a heavy burden of oppression. Your liberty has become oppression. Your religion has become infected.
Sounds to me like you are not adult enough yet to take care of yourself.
I have no need to insult your personage, my post's hold a strength enough to stand on their own ; I have no interest in insulting your personage , but I understand your need to insult mine ; its the Christian way.
Don't worry about it. You can't insult me. I'm an adult.
