None of the apostles taught tithing, none of the apostles quoted Malachi 3:9. Giving in the original church went to minister to the needs of the brethren whether they be ministers, widows, orphans, or the poor. _and done so as God spoke to their hearts who to give to and how much. This HE still does today. Most Christians do not listen to Him in their giving, rather they follow the tradition of feeding the plate Karin, thre is not a single verse in the NT instructing any Christian or church to tithe.

What an answer. I'd have to counter with saying that the tithe doesn't apply! Now if you insist on tithing, we can reason it out for you. If you tithed on your gross and you get a refund, then don't tithe again on the same money. If you tithed on the net, then you should probably tithe on some portion of your return that correlates to the difference between your net and gross. If you get more back than you paid due to credits, you did not tithe on that amount previously and should tithe on it plus any other portion of the return as outlined above. Now a reminder: The tithe law does not apply to NT Believers and NEVER applied to money!

As a matter of fact, in the old testament only farmers and herders tithed. everyone else with other jobs did not tithe. Give what you can. -jared Karin,
