Why give?
Our church ministries are supported by the generous free will offerings of our members.
At Gateway, we teach tithing for the support of the church as God commands. We recognize that giving 10% of our income is the Biblical standard of giving. The word “tithe” means “tenth” and refers to the first 10% of all our income. The Bible tells us that the tithe belongs to God and is to be set aside for Him (Leviticus 27:30) and is to be brought to the storehouse (Malachi 3:10). Today that storehouse is the local church and God wants our tithes to go to the local church for the same reason He wanted them to go to the temple-storehouse,
“so that there may be food in my house”.
The church’s job is to meet the needs of people.
You can think of the local church as being a hospital for spiritually sick people where Jesus is the doctor. But just as a hospital cannot heal the physically sick without funds, the church cannot heal the spiritually sick without funds. When we tithe, we give to others through the church.
