brother read your Bible it should be on the increase but they make us believe it's on you income.
Abraham the first man to pay paid on the increase he had from was bothering all he had.

There are multiple of verses but the one that comes to mind is

Proverbs 3:9 Honor the LORD with your substance, with the first fruits of all your increase:

I.e 10% of Your profit.

God does not need your money......He need your service.....you cannot do any thing for God but for men... if your money cannot help man then you have failed God......tithe or no tithe....God will still open His door of financial blessing for you if He so wish.....use all your earnings to help humanity..... God gave you power to make wealth.....don't hold a dine back for your self sad

Luke 11 vs 42

Matthew 23 vs 23 paraphrase ....you omitted the weightier matters of the law......mercy, faith

Matthew 23 vs 25 Christ said what they did is extortion and Excess.

tithe is good because it helps the Body of Christ to meet up with its financial obligation....but it is not the ultimate in Christianity.....Pay if you have.... and if you don't have.. nothing do you.

Do you have a pastor? Do you belong to a unit in your church (that's if you go to church)?, does your unit have a leader?

Do you consider NL where God is derided a good place to bring issues for discussion?

Do you find it fun when you watch satanists blaspheme God?
Are you a wolf in sheep's clothing?

Do you think you'll walk free if your actions here causes a young weak Christian to fall away?

Do think our actions have no consequences?

When you plant a seed, it will germinate, grow and bear fruits, when the fruits come, you and everyone around you will eat from it. Do not think you'll escape.

Actions have consequences.

Commonsense thing is to base it on the 50k. If you want to declare salary now if looking for better offer or raise, you will not ask this question. All other tax and deductions are also sanely based on this. Godliness should not be tantamount to insanity or a lack of commonsense.

Abeg help me ask them oh! The way they twist scripture to arrive at 10% of money income is really mind boggling.

Be spiritually good. Help the poor. Have fun. Drink beer. Marry a pretty girl. Let your children live their dreams. Be honest.

That my son, is the road to heaven. You cannot bribe God with tithes.
