Its as if Christianity does not want to know the truth about the tithe; they are afraid of change. They have far too much pride, thinking they cannot be wrong about things. Pride comes before a fall. Their young people are being misled, whole families are being taught this horrible wrong. Some of their pastors even know this truth, but would rather have the money than to teach the truth.
Most churches receive far less than 10% of the congregants income. You're still complaining about people making voluntary choices with their own resources. IOW, it's their business, not yours.
Tithing is biblical, that makes it all of our business. But Tithing is not " Spiritual". The Tithe belonged to ancient Israel , essentially it was their income tax. The real biblical Tithe was three parts; a tithe of the produce of land to support the Levites , a tithe to support the festivals taken again from the produce of land, and a tithe taken from the produce of land collected every third year for the local levites , orphans, strangers and widows.
That is the biblical tithe. It was the product of the produce of land, NOT money.
