Although it is better to give than to receive, giving is harder for most people. Giving is not only good stewardship; it enables the church to help those in need. Respected Christian financial expert Larry Burkett uses God's Word to show the strong biblical basis for giving to and serving in the church. Using benevolence ministries as an example, Burkett explains how God uses Christians to minister in His name. This is accomplished by giving back to God a portion of what He has graciously given.

Beyond Tithes and Offerings
Author: Mitchell Webb
Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN: 9781541312470
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 414
Book Description
Is it biblically sound to tithe money? In its 2nd edition, Beyond Tithes & Offerings (from On Time Publishing) answers this question by directly challenging the traditional teachings of monetary tithes and offerings! Continuing from the 1998 1st edition classic, this library of biblical facts will enable you to counter and nullify each and every one of the reasons provided by fellow Christians that promote traditional tithing. Get your copy today and arm yourself with these biblical truths. Most tithing Christians are sincere in their efforts to support the church through monetary tithing. However, hidden in the shadows of this traditional practice, many Christians have lost sight of their calling to love one another. They present various arguments to defend today's version of tithing which are many, very diverse, and sometimes contradictory. Nevertheless, we have known for years that these practices distort true Christian giving, which is centered on meeting the needs of the poor, as well as those that teach and preach the Word. 2nd Edition enhancements include: Opening and Closing Arguments - A fictional court case New chapter titled, "Dispensations of Mankind" New section titled, "Test Me in This" added to "Tithing Defined" New subsection titled, "Do Tithers Receive a Spiritual Blessing?" added to "Tithing Defined" New chapter titled, "Freedom From The Curse" New subsection titled, "I Pledge to Give" added to "The Church Collection" Added a Word Index All NIV passages have been updated from 1984 to 2011 And more ... Unlike other books, Beyond Tithes & Offerings is the complete reference manual on traditional tithing and corrects years of careless biblical misinterpretation of this practice. This is not the book you sell when you are finished. Instead, refer to it every time you come face-to-face with monetary tithing practices. Thank you for your interest and support. We look forward to seeing your Amazon.com review comments.

Should the Church Teach Tithing?
Author: Russell Kelly, Ph.D.
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 1475909683
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
Following a thorough examination of every biblical text on tithing, Dr. Kelly concludes that the church would be best served spiritually by believing and applying better New Testament principles of giving. After discussing sound biblical reasons for Christians to replace tithing, he presents God's better principles of grace. Doctrines such as the New Testament concept of law and covenant and the priesthood of believers are presented as they affect tithing. Following several chapters which discuss disputed texts relating to pastoral support, this book traces the early development of church support as found in the Church Fathers before Nicea. This book leaves no question or objection about tithing unanswered. It is a "must read" for any serious Bible student. There is a wealth of other doctrinal insights to be gained as one goes through the Bible in search of the truth about tithing.

Tithing After the Cross
Author: David a. Croteau
Publisher: Energion Publications
ISBN: 1631993143
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 94
Book Description
Some in the church find it very difficult to talk about money, but it's a subject that cannot be avoided. The church needs money to continue to function. Missionaries need money to carry the gospel. As a result, however reluctant we are to talk about it, we have to do so. And when we do so, we often generate more confusion and resentment than cash. Some churches require that members be tithers before they can take positions of leadership. This in turn can result in a sort of spying by one believer on another. How much do we each earn? Is our giving equal to 10% of our income? On the other hand there are those who discount tithing, and consider themselves tithers because they give two or three percent of their income. They may say that they "tithe" 3% of their income. But what exactly does the Bible teach about tithing and how does that apply to us today? Is there a way for us to become grace-filled givers? Can stewardship, giving, and financing the work of building the kingdom become a joy rather than a duty or a source of dissension? David Croteau has written at length on this topic before. In this volume of the Areopagus Critical Christian Issues series, he undertakes a brief examination of tithing, stewardship, and giving. He starts by asking just what the Israelites were called on to give by the scriptures. He then follows through the various arguments in favor of tithing as a law applicable to Christians and shows how these arguments fail. Finally, he discusses a basis for gracious, joyful giving as God directs each of us. In just 96 pages (including all the front matter) you'll find your understanding of Christian stewardship changed. You won't find here a license for apathy or selfishness. Instead, you'll find a challenge to discover and do God's will in your finances as in every other area of your life.

The Trojan Horse of Tithing
Author: Jonathan Paul Brenneman
Publisher: Independently Published
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 284
Book Description
The Trojan Horse Of Tithing is a plea to Christian leaders, written from a Charismatic/Pentecostal perspective. Jonathan Brenneman exposes the inherent problems with common tithe teachings, highlighting serious issues with even so-called "grace tithing." He demonstrates how deception starts subtly and documents the growing acceptance in mainstream Christianity of even overt teachings of salvation by tithing. Millions of people today now believe they will never even enter heaven without their tithes. No matter how much we try to dress tithe teachings up as grace, they continue to be the root of serious problems.The arguments contained here against the modern tithe tradition are thorough, compelling, and overwhelming. The gospel is worth giving not only our money, but even our lives to promote. However, modern tithe traditions have no place in this because they are not based on truth and misrepresent the way God relates to people. Rather than helping to advance, the gospel, they distort it. God is calling his church to get rid of the leaven and return to a powerful and pure gospel message!The Trojan Horse of Tithing is one of the most comprehensive overviews of multiple arguments against tithing. Few books make such a compelling case as to why tithing is incompatible with the gospel, or deal so thoroughly with less logical but emotionally powerful objections such as "but tithing works!" We include: -What could have possibly convinced strong proponents of tithing such as Derek Prince to change their minds?-Documentation and evidence of the extent of literal "salvation by tithing" doctrine in today's churches, and demonstration that this is the logical implication of even many of the most common so-called "grace tithing" teachings.-Dozens of serious logical problems with all of the common pro-tithing arguments.-A historical study on Melchizedeck and the related terms "El Elyon," "Zedek," "Salem," "Heaven," and "Earth."-11 commandments of God that churches regularly break for their tithe tradition.-9 serious problems with using Malachi as support for Christian tithing.-The history of tithing.-Contrast between the Babylonian tithe and the Jewish tithe. Which is our modern tithe tradition based on?-How the modern tithe tradition violates the statutes and the basic principles of the Jewish tithe.-What tithing and witchcraft have in common.-How tithing undermines Spirit-led giving.-How people are stepping into supernatural giving and supernatural provision without the tithe.-The historical and cultural context of ministerial support in scripture.-Why some of the world's most successful church planters see tithing as a hindrance to church multiplication.-How tithe teachings promote a poverty spirit.-A prophetic dream for the church.
