On the gross? The net? What about my income tax refund?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n You should give based on money that passes through your hands, whether it be your paycheck, tax refund or any other form of income. Keep this principle front and center:<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cRemember this\u2014a farmer who plants only a few seeds will get a small crop. But the one who plants generously will get a generous crop.\u201d \u2013 2 Corinthians 9:6 (NLT)<\/em><\/p>\n 3) Where do my tithes go?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Your tithes help to support the awesome task of winning souls to Christ; from keeping the lights on to developing youth; to helping in need family with meals or bill payment to maintaining ministry tools. <\/em><\/p>\n 4) How does the tithe affect my salvation?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n No, tithing does not grant you salvation. To be saved, you must confess with your mouth and believe in your heart that Jesus is the Son of God. Tithing is a sign of obedience to God and a test of your individual faith in his word that He will meet your needs<\/em><\/p>\n 5) What if I don\u2019t give tithes?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Not tithing does not mean you are not saved; however, it does mean you are being disobedient to God. Disobedience always removes God from fully impacting the area in your life that you\u2019re disobedient in. So God is less involved\/impactful in your needs. Thus, struggles persist.<\/em>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row el_class=”custom-social-footer”][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”Connect With Us” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:center|color:%23ffffff” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_raw_html]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[\/vc_raw_html][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" [vc_row content_placement=”middle” launchkit_padding=”no-pad” background_style=”full”][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”347″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” css_animation=”top-to-bottom”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Why Give?
