#TITHING & #SEED #MONEY --- NOT* #MANDATORY The TITHING rules in the Bible were based specifically on the religious and social system of ancient Israel and on an agricultural economy. *Modern day questions about what #percentage we should give and whether it should be computed on gross income, net income or wealth are not answered in the Bible. Nor does the Bible tell us how much of our giving should go to a church and how much to help the needy. *In todays world, we must pray and listen to our consciences/instincts and consider the needs of ourselves and our families (1 #Timothy 5:8) when deciding how much to give and to which organizations or individuals. No one should feel pressured to give a certain amount of money to a church or other ministry. Also, there is no requirement in the Bible to give SEED MONEY to a church, preacher or ministry, and no promise that any #BLESSINGS of any kind will come as a result. Hmmmm !!
