She is saying that tithe is supposed to be a personal matter between God and I. So I asked a question that what if I have a 5% voluntary contribution to an overseas fund, and i kept it private, and one day she stumbled on my account statement and found out that I now have 30k in overseas contributions. Would she be happy I didn’t tell her, and she said of course, I would need to let her know.
This answer got me confused, because if tithe should be a private matter, why should my voluntary contributions from my 20% not be a private matter!?

GoodBoi1:
Personally, I think tithing as done in today's church is optional. If you insist on paying tithe, since you are in the diaspora, can't your employer deduct tithe from your tax as charity donations and send it to your church?

The good news is that I won a large sum of money from my savings, tens of thousands of dollars.

rexbuton:


Is is possible

optm:

Well First of, those people paying tithes are not foolish, God instituted tithes as a statue in the old testament in order to make provision for the temple and it's workers the Levites. The work of God here on earth needs finance. If you read the scripture i shared earlier, Jesus said , they should tithe but not neglect important things as love and justice.

Please this topic wants to tear the family apart.

We are doing well, each of us earns almost 85k per year, I'm in IT, she's in healthcare, and we both work full-time.
I am a Christian, I have never defaulted in tithing in the last 5 years. Not once.
She says tithing is my personal 'problem'. She uses the word problem specifically. She doesn't pay tithe.

This is the present sharing agreement, I bring 70%, she brings 30%.
This 70-30 covers the cost of living, groceries, nursery fees for our baby, and other bills.
before this sharing, we both bring equal amounts for the house mortgage and the car.
When her family needs money, she insists that we share it 50-50 based on her culture.

For my cybersecurity certifications, I pay from my less than 20%, but I have never complained. God has been faithful. My belief is that my tithe covers for the family.
The good news is that I won a large sum of money from my savings, tens of thousands of dollars. I intend to pay tithe, and channel most of the money to my professional development so I can earn more. I don't think I deserve that money I won, that money was from God.
She thinks otherwise.

What's your opinion?

I think that the fact that you are tithing should be a ground for divorce. As a supposed leader of a household, your wife has more common sense than you.

Your wife shares her family responsibilities 50-50, but would insist you pay your tithes AlONE, but would alsO shAre your savings> Oga you Are in a wrong relATIonshiP. Waling with God is a personal relationship and you are convinved enough in the grace of God to have been faithful enough to pay tithes for 5 years, God would surely reward you. However, that partner is going to be a clog in your wheel. The Bible asks, can two walk together except they agree, if they do, one is deceiving the other. You seem to be the one olding the short end of the stick.

But didnt you establish this before commitment to marriage?

paxonel:
You are simply a stupid Christian, mumu!

Whaat? for 5 years of brain washing?
Mehnnnn!

Sorry, don't be annoyed that I'm using those terms to describe you. It is simply what it is

Kobojunkie:
You don't deserve the money but a pastor man who will now use it to pay off his mortgage or even buy his next private jet is the one who is more deserving of it, abi?

For almost 2000 years, Jesus Christ, who never asked anyone for a dime of their money, has never owned a bank account or been shown to have received even a penny from any religious leader, yet Christians(religionists) claim they have given him tons of their wealth by way of their Mogs and Pastors. No be magic be that?
