WE’VE MADE TITHING AN IDOL — AND IT’S HURTING PEOPLE.For years, I taught what most churches preach about tithing: “10% minimum or you’re robbing God.” Then I actually studied the Bible. What I found changed how I viewed tithing and generosity!In this video, we discuss some toxic teachings crushing believers:⚡️ The LIE that Malachi 3 applies to modern day christians⚡️ The DANGER of “sacrifice = worship” theology⚡️ The SHOCKING truth about the widow’s mite (it’s NOT what you think)⚡️ How pastors misuse “storehouse” giving (sometimes for control)⚡️ Why the early church NEVER tithedThis isn’t about not giving, it’s about GENEROSITY WITHOUT GUILT. If you’ve ever felt manipulated by tithing demands, spiritually abused by money sermons, or wondered, “Does God really curse me over not giving 10%," this should bring you clarity and freedom.We cover:• The 3 OLD TESTAMENT TITHES churches ignore• Why "TEST ME IN THIS” (Malachi 3:10) WASN’T FOR YOU• How ROBBING GOD became weaponized• What NEW TESTAMENT GENEROSITY really looks likeSPOILER: Not one verse commands Christians to tithe.
