Tithing - The Lies Stop Here!

You may think that the title of this particular teaching is too much, but what's really gone overboard are the Pastors out there who teach such nonsense about tithing (giving to God)!

Today's question comes from a woman who has found herself GROWING in the Lord! (and quite by surprise)

Question: Pastor Keith, my whole life I've heard about tithing and why it's so important, but recently some things have occurred to me that never did before.  I know that I'm supposed to give 10%, but 10% of WHAT?  Is it 10% of my net income?  Is it 10% of my gross income?  Is it just 10% of my main income or am I supposed to include 10% of my bank account and 10% of my secondary income and 10% of my gifts too???  I find myself feeling guilty all the time, because lately when I listen to the Pastor of my church, it feels like I'm expected to be giving away everything!  Can you help?

Answer: Sister.... YES I CAN!  :)

To those of you who have been following me, you know that it's my "mission" to correct false, untrue, made-up, make-believe and otherwise insane or ridiculous teachings that have infected Christianity.

False teachings which include, but are not limited to:

• Strictly following the 10 Commandments makes God happy
• Speaking in false-tongues shows that you are truly saved
• The more you give to your church, the more you'll be rewarded with cool stuff
• There is no Hell (lol, sinners could only wish!)
• The KJV is the only perfect Bible (lol, it's full of translation errors)
• Pastors are always supposed to be happy and make you smile (because they're robots)
• If you dream it, you can achieve it (dear Lord, that's Amway!)
• The Bible says something different to each one of us (whew)
• Homosexual "love" is love perfected by God (???)
• God says we all go to Heaven (yeah, I know...)
• Jesus and Satan are brothers and God is from another planet (seriously Mormons?)
