If people tithe to their local church, I have no problem with what has been termed “reverse tithing.”
But what of those who tithe very little in comparison to others? Did Lazarus (not the Lazarus that Jesus raised from the dead) tithe very much? Uh, no, I don’t think so...
The Bible tells us we are to give “alms” in secret, and God, who sees what we have done in secret, will reward us publicly. I don’t think too much about a public reward so much as what strikes me here is the fact that God, and God alone, is to be the judge of our giving.
While Marx taught everyone to pass harsh judgment on what others do for the poor, God says that is for Him to judge, and Him alone.
