The New Testament makes it clear that giving should be done from the heart, freely, without compulsion.

One of the greatest parts of FR is finding that somebody else has said what I want to say, and often said it better !

From 2nd Corinthians 9:7 ...
“Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.”

You can find cross references in your annotated Bible. The concept is well established.
