1. It costs a good deal to pay the tithe to the Lord, but it costs a good deal more not to pay it.— Whalon. 2. The Christian church has fallen below even the Jewish low-water mark of a single tithe.— George Sherwood Eddy. 3. "All the tithe of the land is the Lord's," and not to pay it is robbing Him; and that is a sure way to bring down His displeasure.— Bailey. 4. To dedicate the tenth of what we have is mere duty; charity begins beyond it; free-will offerings beyond that again.— Frances Ridley Havergal. 5. We may safely take the tenth as a starting-point, for there are few who would care to give less than the heathen and the Jews.— William H. Salimon. 6. In the sight of Christ's teaching, the "whole tithe" for us may be more than a tenth. Jacob had no church to support.— George Sherwood Eddy. 7. The man who prays, "Thy kingdom come," and does not give some just proportion of his income to promote His kingdom, is a conscious or unconscious hypocrite.— F. E. Clark, D.D. 8. Christians should regard money as a trust. They are stewards of Jesus Christ for everything they have; and they ought to see His image and superscription on every dollar they possess.— T. L. Cuyler, D.D. 9. A tenth of his income was required of the Jew to be set apart and sacredly devoted to God's treasury. And this was the first tenth, and not the last tenth; the "first-fruits," and not the dregs and leavings.— A. J. Gordon, D.D. 10. Some of us could tell of such sweet and singular lessons of trust in this matter of tithing that they are written in golden letters of love in our memory. Of course there will be trials of our faith in this, as in all else.— Frances Ridley Havergal.
