No not at all.
If you are a follower of Christ, and you prefer to chase after a tithing Mammon, Just remember you can't worship God and Mammon at the same time.

It is based on net income.

Your real income is the total income less deductions like : union dues , paye tax ,pension contribution . Tithe should be paid on this.

How clear do you want it, tithing's was never for us Christians, unless your a Jew from the old testament, or a Levite who received tithes from the Jews?
Even today in this day and age the Jews don't pay tithes..

ok. My question is nt whether it is right or wrong to pay tithe, 'cos I already knw d answer. My question is, should tithe be based on gross or net income.
Re: Should Tithe Be Based On Gross Or Net Income? by brocab: 9:03am On May 19, 2015
No not at all, tithing and giving have two different meanings.
Tithe was never meant to be money finances, only food products, it was a law given to the rich herdsmen and the farmers to support the Levi priesthood at the time, from there to the needy.
Today, not even in Israel they pay tithes.
Don't be fooled by these conmen, read the word and ask the Lord to show you the truth.
The birds of the air they neither sow nor they reap, nor put into barns, and the Lord feeds them, how much more are you.

You asked and I wrote it down, and plus why not preach the word-you are confused? It was you who asked if it was relevant, to pay tithes on weekly earnings. I only stepped in to help a brother in need.

Tithing shouldn't be mentioned full stop. It was an old testament law that none of us follow any longer.
If you pay tithes or receive tithes, you are committing a crime against the word of God, It's stealing..
One of the 10 commandments is-They shall not steal..

I think it should be based on future income

By faith we are children of Abraham abi?
faith is the "solidity" of things not seen, of things hoped for.

If we have faith that we are millionaires or will be millionaires
then we activate its solidity by tithing our future income
