This booklet sets out to quickly demonstrate the complexity of tithing and why it should not be appropriated in the church. It reaches into the ancient customs and practices, the Mosaic Law, Malachi and The New Testament. I find it alarming, that certain ministry has successfully introduced an unscriptural and summarised version into the church. The teaching of tithing finds no place in the New Covenant.

I hear a familiar sound; the pump priming for collection time. Not a collection for the saints, but a collection from the saints. A spiel of the blessings one would receive as a result from paying your ministers to hear the Word of God. This commandment is called tithing. Tithing is leaving many confused and scratching for funds to avoid condemnation. I rarely notice joy at this time but rather the forced grin of obedience. The Pentecostal tithing teaching holds strong ties with the Old Covenant way of life. Materialistic gain being the proof of our favour with God. Does this hold true to New Covenant living? I am surprised that tithing is still accepted by many churches all over the world. It is regarded by many as an infallible biblical truth.
