Is It Possible The Church Has Misunderstood Malachi 3:8-11? Series

Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Jan 2, 2018

Christians have been taught that the tithe is a "spiritual bill" they must pay in order to keep the "windows of heaven" open. Is it possible that this passage is being used to teach something that it does not teach?

If we wanted lunch money for school we would ask our father what would please him. He’d tell us. At supper time, as we sat ...read more

God's Definition Of Marriage Series
