This is between you and the Lord. 1 Timothy 2:5 says. For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; Praying to God alone will do more than posting it on OB.
Tithing existed before the Law of Moses. Abraham tithed to Melchizedek (Gen 14:20; Heb 7:6). Jacob tithed to the Lord at Bethel (Gen 28:22). This practice was later incorporated into the Law.
This isn't what you put forth in your OP. You really need to be clear what you are looking for. And again, those "churches" are entitled to do whatever they want as a church. Does what these people do in their own church affect you directly? No. They will answer to the Lord. Now, we have had two high profile ministers leave the ministry in the past month. They're both wealthy. I liked SOME of what these men put forward, but, because they weren't my pastor I NEVER gave them a dime. My money is given to my local church.
I'm talking about those congregation that supports their God, the Pastor. Those preachers living the life of the rich and famous. The members support them blindly and follow them. The preacher deserves it? Right, so did Jesus.
