Assuming you want to pay your tithe and a junior colleague came up with a problem of health challenges and wants you to assist him in paying hospital bills with the exact amount you want to pay as tithe.
Should you decline helping him and pay your tithe or use the tithe money to rescue him out of his problem.

Nope you can only help from the remaining 90 %.. the 10 % is for God and God alone

Its not bad to use ur tithe money to help someone, I believe God know ur mind to pay the tithe and for u to save a soul with the tithe is not bad couse u can pay it back latter, what God send us to world is to save a soul and bring them to the way of God,so what are talking!

Well... I wish I could answer you directly but this is where we need to watch what we say so that we do not lead a fellow brother astray.

For me, my tithe is meant to be brought to the house of God. For me, the house of God is not the building. For me, a neighbour (a fellow human) dwelling on planet earth is in the house of God because "the earth is the Lords and its fullness there of".

My point is for me, my tithe is meant for God and if situations calls for me to help Gods children then I can as well do it and give the person in need.

This is my opinion and this is what my faith carries at the moment. If you are not inspired to do so please remove what you can out of the 90% and help.

Broda go and read Deut. 14: 22-29... It has d ans 2 ur question.
Here u realise tight was never meant 4 the church nor d pastor as many people insinuate bt ur tight is 4 u and d less privileged.........
Den common sense shud tell u dat water flows down d hill and not upwards.... Rather dan giv ur money 2 a pastor who is already living large why not give it 2 somebody who needs it after all according 2 Hebrews 5 we no longer have levites(chosen priest) rada we are all of equal status cos we now have one high priest; Christ.
Evn in d old where d levites where not given any property by Moses bt were 2 be taking care of by d oda 11tribes, tight was not totally 4 dem{deut 14: 22-29} let alone now dat our pastors are big time investors.
Finally Jesus said "whatsoever u do 2 d list of my brodas dat u do on 2 me" and if u agree dat Jesus is God it simple means if u giv ur tight 2 dat poor guy u hav given it 2 Jesus and by extension 2 God.
Have a nice day

No you can't. Your 10‰ tithe is for your pastor and your pastor alone.
Re: Is It Good To Help Someone With Your Tithe by Nobody: 8:32am On Jul 26, 2015
Maka whyyy? Give your tithe to people more in need than your pastor. Afterall, the bible never told non-hebrews to pay tithe.

If u're left with only dat 10% (meaning the 90%has been spent) you can help him wit the 10%. Matthew 25:35 -"40" also see 1 John 4:20-21.
