WHY 
​​TITHE?
Why Tithe?
- Because God says so – and He is faithful to those who are faithful.

Throughout history people that have followed God's Word and applied His ways have been blessed for their obedience.
  1.  Abraham gave ten percent (10%) to Melchizedek to bless God who had blessed him (Hebrews 7:1-2, 1 Genesis 14:18-20 2) and prospered abundantly.

  2. Jacob, who was Abraham’s grandson, came to understand the holiness of God for himself and vowed to give The Lord a tenth (10%) of all that had been given to Him. The full story is in Genesis 28 and ends with Jacob’s vow in Genesis 28:22 3:

    22 And this stone, which I have set for a pillar, shall be God's house: and of all that thou shalt give me I will surely give the tenth unto thee
American leaders who believed the Word of God and faithfully tithed
- subsequently receiving great blessings as their businesses thrived.
