We've been told that "tithing" - giving a tenth of our income to a church or ministry - is a foundation of the Christian faith. Determined to find the truth about this almost-universal doctrine, the author did extensive Biblical and historical research to find the truth. His goal was to see what the Bible says - and does NOT say - about tithing. Presented here in a concise and very readable style are the results of his study. Did tithing originate with the Hebrews? What can we learn from Abraham's gifts to the King/Priest Melchizedek? Was tithing uniformly practiced among the Jews? And, what did the Lord Jesus and His apostles teach about tithing? Prepare for a fascinating look at a dogma that yields some surprises when placed under scrutiny
