TITHE
The word “tithe” literally means tenth or 10%. Tithing or giving ten percent of your income isn’t merely giving something to God. It’s giving back what was His, to begin with.
TITHING
” Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this,” says the Lord Almighty, “and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that there will not be room enough to store it.” Malachi 3:10 (NIV)
Giving
“Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.” 2 Corinthians 9:7 (NIV)

“In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’ ”
Acts 20:35 (NIV)
“Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.”
1 Corinthians 15:58 (NIV)
Bethel Helps You Reach Your Goals for Giving Time!
Time is the greatest gift you can give someone because you only have a set amount of it. When you give someone your time, you’re giving them a portion of your life that you’ll never get back.
