If giving ten percent were the secret to financial prosperity, then every tithing Christian would be wealthy by now. But that’s not how giving works, and it’s certainly not the message of the New Testament.
A caller recently asked me if tithing is tied to financial prosperity. My response? Let’s just say it challenges the “give-to-get” formulas and the so-called money-back guarantees some churches peddle. (Yes, that actually happens. They put God on a stopwatch.)
Here’s the truth: You won’t find a single command to tithe in any of the New Testament letters. What you will find is something far better—and far freer.
