Listen "Is It a Sin Not to Tithe?"
Episode Synopsis
Tithing is a common practice in many churches, but some leaders turn up the pressure by teaching we gain favor with God through our giving. Some even say you’re robbing God and committing a sin if you don’t tithe. A recent caller was struggling with guilt for not tithing to her church and asked if she was a thief who was stealing from the Lord, as her pastor suggested. So, is it a sin not to tithe? Actually, it’s a sin to tithe if we are giving from a law-based motivation rather than giving freely from the heart! And as I share in this episode, it’s also a sin to believe and teach that giving allows you to remain in good standing with God.We hope you enjoyed this episode.
