3724 — Tithe and Wages

By Editor

Is a person who does not own any property, who works for wages only, under obligation to pay tithe? C.

Surely he is. God's cause would suffer greatly if the wage-earners refused their tithe. They are usually the most faithful tithe-payers there are. They consider that their strength and vitality and powers of being are that upon which they receive an income, just as truly as a man does from a farm. And the devoted, earnest Christian wage-earner deducts his tithe the first thing he does, from his entire wage, and lives from the nine tenths; thanks God that he can do that; believes that the Lord will make the nine tenths, with His blessing, go farther than the ten tenths without it.
