The difference between tithe and offering. Part 1.

Loading player...
Bahle Nhlapho wraps up the show with Pastor Ndaba Mavuso, discussing the biblical difference between tithe and offering based on Hebrews 7:5, 1 Corinthians 9:1-18, and Matthew 25. The tithe is a mandated giving of one-tenth (10%) of one’s income, honoring God as first priority and supporting the work of ministry and the Levites under the Old Testament law. Offerings, however, are voluntary gifts given beyond the tithe, motivated by generosity and personal conviction. While tithes have a set amount and purpose, offerings are flexible in amount and used for broader acts of worship, charity, and mission. Together, they teach believers the importance of stewardship, faithfulness, and putting God first in all financial matters.
