Frequently Asked Questions

What is a tithe according to the Bible?

A tithe is 10% of one's income given to God through the local church. The word 'tithe' literally means 'tenth.' In the Old Testament, tithing was commanded for the support of the Levites and temple. Many Christians today continue the practice as an act of worship and trust in God.

Should Christians tithe from gross or net income?

The Bible doesn't specify gross or net. Tithing from gross income (before taxes) follows the principle of giving God the 'firstfruits,' while tithing from net (after taxes) is also practiced by many believers. This is a personal decision between you and God based on your conviction.

Is tithing required for Christians?

While tithing was an Old Testament command, the New Testament emphasizes generous, cheerful giving (2 Corinthians 9:7) rather than a specific percentage. Many Christians view 10% as a good starting point, but the key is giving from a grateful heart according to one's ability.
