Tithing is the drug of choice for many churches

You state "What I mean by that is that tithing is the needle, the concoction of out of context and old testament scripture manipulation, mixed up just right is the 'heroin', and the high is the justification by old testament law and man. That is the tithers reward." Hear ye, hear ye, gather around brothers, and listen to this fellow - Hear his message like the one given of Pharoah to the slaves of Goshens ... to wit ... What make our tally of brick withoiut straw? Ahh says Pharoah, then letthem glean it for themselves! Now Backseat wants us to have Churches without Buildings? Or is the PLAN to have Churches funded by the government ... in which case Homsexuals, LGBT and murders, theives, pornagraphy producers, Satanists, Witches, and every other diseased mind MUST BE allowed to Join the Church, not to mention Marriage requirements for the Pastors, Preachers and Priest MUST marry same sex couples or have Federal Funding pulled and the Doors barred! Or perhaps this IS the meaning fom the word go! Close the doors, because If we are not federally or State funded, we have No resources to keep the doors open in the first place? Perhaps THIS was the meaning for this debate? Because except for the people OF the Church who do give, there would be no Church outside the Home Church which is also fine, but let us put it into correct prospective! Isn't that what it's really all about, personal greed? A person who feels no need to GIVE a portion of what God gives Him to God for the establishment of a place that people who seek God can come to to learn ... course without funding can't buy Bibles, so we would of course require them to bring their own Bibles an sort of Christian BYOB. Perhaps the more noble ... obviously not backseat driver here, but certainly I wouldn't mind giving my Bible to another soul and just purchase me another one. Course I of course am honored to give God at least 10% and in my case more than 10% for the priviledge and honor to be a child of His and have the oportunity to support a building where others can come to learn of the wonderous grace of God ... I mean after all there are plenty of ... what is the term? Deadbeat son's who suckup everything free, like a bum on a bologna sandwich, leaving not a crumb in its place! Taking never giving ... ah yes, the memories. Yes perhaps Backseat driver does have something there after all. Or maybe .. just maybe? He should get back on His knees and Thank God for a sense of humor, along with a quick prayer that no one should listen to such nonsense! Maybe backseat driver just hasn't thought the problem through? Maybe he's been listening to some freak, and failed in his task to TEST the spirit, to see if it was so? I'm sure I've heard that somewhere ... yes, Acts I believe, the bereans come to mind, yes surely it must have been them? So enlighten us backseat driver ... tell us HOW to keep the church open, without tithes .... perhaps a Raffle? Selling cakes sometimes works? Course I'm not sure one can raise 300,000 dollars in cakes and raffles, but I suppose we can try? I mean after all, only 20% of the ENTIRE CHURCH MEMBERSHIP even GIVE tithes ... we won't obviously include backseat in that as which side he's on is crystal clear! The rest of the 80% obviously HAVE listened to backseat driver here, I must make sure to have the pastor check to see if backdoor driver is in OUR congregation. Perhaps a visit to the woodshed is in order? only God knows?
