Re-examining the Institutional Church's "Doctrine of Tithing"

In the past, I so strongly believed in New Testament Church tithing, that in my heart, I use to look down on Christians who were not faithful in their tithing to the Church. In fact, I so strongly believed in "tithing," that I believed that Christians who were not faithful in their tithing to the Church, were robbing God. However, over the years, upon a more careful examination of the "Scriptures," I discovered that the unnecessary "burden" of tithing that today's Church Leadership has laid upon the Saints of God, is not "Scriptural."

The same also holds true to my earlier belief in a "Pre-Tribulation Rapture." Over the years upon further examination of the "Scriptures," I discovered that the belief in a "Pre-Tribulation Rapture" is not "Scriptural!" I have previously posted an article about this (About the Rapture) on this site.

A document "Re-examining the Institutional Church's Doctrine of Tithing" is contained in the attachment.

Thank You!
