Tithing is merely a 50-year-old doctrine?

Tithing as a teaching stemed out of the 1950's tent revivals. Turn of the century fundamentalist preachers and penetcostal preachers were known for being broke and in all bible schools they used to teach trades so the preacher couls support themselves

A familiar phrase was coiuned during the depression "As poor as a church mouse"

Look up DL Moody, Charles finny, John wesley and a hundred others you won't find a tithing message -- The tithing message really came into prominance in churches in the late 1970's and early 80's with Oral roberts sucess with the book seed faith and the tele-evangleists.

Go on the internet search out these things find out for yourself its all out there just a few clicks away.
