Keep the Church Out of Debt

By Helen A. Steinhauer

HELEN A. STEINHAUER
“Do you pay tithes?”—“Of course, I do.” Well, then, imitate the Israelites, and always put aside as much more as a free-will offering. In this way the contribution-box need never pass you, for be it much or little, you will always have something to put in. You will be able to keep up your end of church expenses; and if the rich will lay aside a free-will offering tithe too, as well as their poorer brethren, the church never will be in debt. Moreover, no one will feel the poorer for what he gives, as the Lord will repay.
