The Church Is supposed to Give Tithes to HELP PEOPLE IN NEED! NOT GIVE TO A BUILDING OR AN ORGANIZATION!



This video I am about to post below is what the church, those who call themselves believers in Christ, are supposed to be doing with their tithes and offerings.

Helping those IN NEED. Not giving to a building or organization for it’s upkeep, but giving to help those IN NEED.

The church has been FALSELY taught for a long time, that it is your church organization that needs your funds.

The church has  browbeaten and guilt tripped it’s members into giving it’s money to help the organization, but not people in need. 

People in genuine need of help. Instead, we just randomly give our 10% hoping it goes to someone who needs it. There is a better way.

God’s way of doing things.

That’s not to say some churches aren’t helping those in need, but mostly people tithe to a BUILDING and it’s needs and not to those who really need help. You don’t necessarily know where your funds are going. And that also goes for big money charitable Christian organizations as well.

Who knows how much of what you give, goes to where you want it to go? But I digress.

We are to give our offerings FREELY and without manipulation to help others, as God leads you by His Spirit to give.

If you are listening to God. 

Or are you letting your church organization do your thinking for you?

Malachi  chapter 3:8-10 has been falsely taught and misunderstood in the churches. This was directed at the priesthood at that time in ancient Israel. But the churches have taught that it is for the members to follow and give their 10% right off the top.


you have robbe Me!
” But you say,
‘In what way have we robbed You?’ In tithes and offerings.
You are cursed with a curse,
For you have robbed Me,
Even this whole nation.
10 Bring all the tithes into the storehouse,
That there may be food in My house,
And try Me now in this,”
Says the Lord of hosts,
“If I will not open for you the windows of heaven
And pour out for you such blessing
That there will not be room enough to receive it”

Now it is used in the churches to guilt trip and manipulate it’s members to give to their organization. While many go hungry and in need.


Here’s what Apostle Paul says we are to be as givers: cheerful givers! 

In 2 Corinthians 9, Paul in vs 7 tells us we are to decide in our hearts what we are to give, without doing it reluctantly or in response to pressure, but to be one who gives cheerfully.

That is a far cry from what we’ve been taught,  that we rob God when we don’t give our 10% to the church!

And if we are listening to the Holy Spirit, often times we are led to give MORE than our 10%. 

Isn’t it time we start listening to the Holy Spirit, than listening to someone who does not rightly divide the word?

I’m not saying you should not support your pastor financially, 

if that is what you are led by the Spirit to do.

But in the early church, they met in people’s home, so there was no need to support a building or organization. If anyone in their home meeting had needs, people gave to help others, as they were able….and again, if they were led of the Spirit.

But their hard earned funds went to help people, not buildings or organization.

Watch this video link below. This shows the heart of giving:

Will we wake up and realise we’ve been taught incorrectly, or will we continue to slumber on, ignoring the voice of the Holy Spirit?

God is watching us.
