Faith chat summary and scripture references
After many years of studying tithing, I have come to the conclusion that tithing is not an obligation to new testament believers, but a choice. It is a choice that must be done in faith rather than out of obligation.
If you tithe because you feel obligated, you nullify the blessing of the tithe. If you tithe in faith, then you activate the financial blessing associated with the tithe. Listen to today’s Faith Chat to dig into this concept.
