Giving to the pastor is biblical...
most especially to the people living in the house FAITH.
alter offering is also good,giving it willingly.

It is best to give to the poor and needy around you. Jesus clearly stated that when you give to the poor you are giving directly to him.

Each giving has it's place. One doesn't take the place of the other.

Mark 12:17
And Jesus answering said unto them, Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's. And they marvelled at him.

Matthew 10:41
He who gives honour to a prophet, in the name of a prophet, will be given a prophet's reward;

Galatians 6:6
But let him who gets teaching in the word give a part in all good things to his teacher.
