NO, You DON’T Have To Tithe To Your Church!! (Here’s Why They’re WRONG)

Did you know that most churches misuse one of the most famous Bible verses about giving? In this video, I break down Malachi 3:10 and show how it’s often misapplied when it comes to tithing.

You’ll learn:
- What Malachi 3:10 actually says
- How churches commonly twist this verse to demand a 10% tithe
- Why the Old Testament tithe was different from modern giving
- The true heart of biblical generosity under the New Covenant
- 5 key things most churches get wrong about tithing

Hint: The verse about bringing the tithe into the “storehouse” wasn’t about giving money to a church—it was about supporting the temple in ancient Israel. And under Christ, giving is meant to come from the heart, not under legal obligation.

If you’ve ever felt pressured by tithing sermons or wondered what God really teaches about generosity, this video is for you.
