I live better than I deserve - eat better than I deserve - drive better than I deserve hopefully I am a good steward however if I want something bad enough I find an excuse or reason to get it AND I imagine you good folks do the same.
Here is the answer DO NOT give money to men you do NOT trust nor have confidence.
Do you have scripture that supports pastors get all the tithes?

Also if there was 3 or 4 tithes in the OT, why is only one taught today?

Trust is not the question at hand, but tithes is.

It's a pick and choose doctrine when it comes to tithes. While i don't beleive there was 3 or 4 tithes in OT, why is only one conveniently carried over to the NT??

And the point is missed again....

It isn't about not giving...

It is about what the word does say and what the word does say juxtaposed against what folks try to tell us the word says.
