This is what the Bible says about tithing
A tithe is a tenth of one's produce paid to a religious organizations mostly churches by Christians. Tithes are voluntary and are either paid in cash, cheques or in form of farm produce. Heated arguements have been raised in the past about this act with some Christians feeling it's not necessary. Tithing was central according to God's law. In this article,I will be giving you some Bible verses talking about tithing.
