Re: Questions on the tithe

AJ asked: ...to strive to be as well off as they can be b/c God wants us to have a good quality of life. He doesn't want us to be poor. [That's a way to show His graciousness to non-believers. If we are needy and poor, what's the attraction to become a Christian.]

If the attraction to becoming a christian is to be prosperous, then something is terribly wrong with the message that is being sent. The attraction should be Christ, himself! That's what is wrong with the message today...it has veered from the biblical message of repentance and forgiveness of sin. The bible says before becoming a disciple of Jesus Christ, we are to first "consider the cost".
