Frequently asked questions
A tithe is a contribution of one’s income to the local church. Tithing is a principle taught throughout the Bible and is a tangible way of worship as we show appreciation for God’s blessings and show trust in His plan. With regard to how much we should give, the Apostle Paul recommends that each of us should be guided by our own heart when choosing how much to give and that we should give joyfully and voluntarily (2 Corin. 9:7)
Giving to the church is more about being a part of the body of Christ (1 Cor. 12) and less about ‘giving’ as an obligation. God invites us to partake in His work and that includes giving to support the work of the church. “Giving”, in this context, does not only mean by donating money, but by serving the church with your skills and time, which is also what Biblical stewardship is about.
God says that those who refuse to tithe are stealing, in Malachi 3:8: “Will a man rob God? Yet you have robbed Me! But you say, ‘In what way have we robbed You?’ In tithes and offerings.”
The tithe is stewarded by the church to take care of and support the church and those who minister to God’s people.
If you cannot physically tithe on a Sunday at church, you can EFT your tithes using the details on the ‘Give’ page.
