For the love of money is a root of all sorts of evil, and some by longing for it have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs. 1 Timothy 6 v Some Biblical truth about money:

What lies do Christian tell themselves about giving? Im not under OT law, so tithing no longer applies A TITHE can be given to things other than the church I dont need to give money because I give time (serve) Its normal/godly/holy for the church to be underfunded Ill give if I have something left at the end of the month 100% - 10% = 90%

Normal maths:100% - 10% = 90% Gods kingdom maths: 100% - 10% = 90% 100% - 10% = obedient faith 100% - 10% = Gods blessing 100% - 10% > 100%
