1462.—Paying Tithes on the Sabbath.
By Editor
Is it wrong to pay our tithes and rent on the Sabbath day, handing it to the treasurer in a sealed envelop, having it arranged on a week day, the persons living far away and not able to attend a business meeting? Also is it wrong to ride in the cars and pay fare, when living far away and not able to walk? Often there are those having young children, who would have to stay at home unless they came that way. L. What is meant by "rent"? If it is rent on one’s house, we should do it in some other way, send it by mail or otherwise some other day. If it pertains to the work of God, the place of worship, we see no harm in paying it as above indicated. Nor do we see any wrong in thus attending church. God asks no unreasonable things of His children.
