The New Testament teaches us that “as God Prospers a man” so shall he give. Therefore those in need should first take care of thier basic needs for their families before they attempt to give to the church....if they are ill and in need themselves they should first take care of themsleves until well again.
on the other hand...those who God has indeed “prospered” beyond the basics should be giving a whole lot more than 10% since your wealth has increased so too should your tithe move well beyond the ten percent. So Beck is wrong to say He is in the 10% range....he needs to be much greater than that.

Conrad Hilton gave much more than 10%...
He lost his hotel and was bankrupt and he gave and God had him build another hotel...and he never was poor again...
I wonder if Paris has ever appreciated the faith in God that her grandfather had...
J C Penney was so prosperous that he told God he was going to give 20%
God prospered him more so he said again I dont need all this money God, I’m going to give 30%...
He kept going till he was paying 90% and was still rich and prosperous...
And look what God did to his business...
The man who had the idea to put a motor in each giant wheel of those big earth moving machines did the same gave much more than 10%
There was a soap company guy who did the same...
Beck could easily give 50% and never miss it...
You cant out give God...
I’d like to see Beck do a widows mite thingy...give ALL of his money...
Wouldnt that be something...
Even I would show up in Washington to watch that ...
A good military commander never orders his men to do something he wouldnt do himself...
Believe it or not, many people give much more than 10% of their income, they also give the church 10% of their time. I will not sit here and judge anyone but I guarantee you there are not many people who give what they could. I think Glenn Beck is a good man and I wish people would stop bashing him just because he joined the Mormon faith. No, I am not a Mormon.
