Pay tithing, attend church, blessings will follow...

isn't that what we were taught?

Well, today I got a check in the mail from one of the local wards. My TBM renter periodically runs into bad luck. His hours are cut at work, wife's child support payment held up, medical bills, etc. Every few months this happens and he has to go to the bishop for help. He is a TBM full-tither.

Here I sit, not paying a dime to the church, not attending church, etc., and I am the recipient of the money.

It isn't supposed to be like this in Mormondumb. I just smile and deposit his check.

This is actually one of the main things that started my questioning process.

I did everything I was supposed to do as a TBM, naively assuming that God would have my back, then learned the hard way that reality didn't align with my worldview.

If he put all that tithing in Savings, he would rarely lack rent money.

Which window is open farthest-
4000 in the bank or 4000 in tithing?

Re: Pay tithing, attend church, blessings will follow... UNLESS THEY DONT !

and if the blessings dont come it is ALWAYS the individuals fault and NEVER the church's fault.

Just remember when the chips were down instead of relying on the lord at an opportune time to prove the validity of tithing
& the lords blessings, Brigham YOUNG dumped tithing, because he knew what it really is - money grubbing scam !h
